sewing with aunt missy

last week my brother and sister-in-law moved in with us as they are starting a new life in minnesota after living in south africa for the past year. we are really enjoying having them here and being able to spend so much time together, something we've rarely been able to do in the past. lauren is especially loving her uncle jeremiah and aunt missy time. they are both so good and patient with her. and joel and i are having fun watching lauren develop a relationship with them (which didn't take long to do). missy is a great seamstress and is always sewing something(she's promised to give me lessons). so the other night lauren wanted to take a closer look and see exactly what missy was doing with this strange machine. i think she was rather impressed.

Oh, how nice to have family around...especially if they have cool skills to share:) Is she making a bib?
One day I will learn to sew as well!

yes, it's great having her around. she's already made 3 bibs and a purse since she's been here. i definitely want a lesson!
