Creative Friday--6 Hours Edition

The kids and I went over to Michelle's house last Wednesday for Creative Friday. I had assumed Whitney would opt to stay home alone that day, but instead she consented to play with Eva all day for $1.50 an hour. This works out well for everyone so I agreed.

I picked up some tasty Los Hermanos for our lunch.

Michelle returned two of my books and loaned me another one, I love having something good to read on-deck (I'm currently reading The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton.

Lucas and Landon are officially huge.

Michelle has to hand sew circles of fabric to center of 44 quilt squares! She made a large dent in her to-do pile that day, but man oh man this is a high-effort quilt.

I surprised Michelle with a self-inking, personalized return address stamp since I knew she'd been wanting one.

Cadbury Egg deliciousness!

I had a lot of birthday photo card thank yous to write.

I love postage!

I was so pleased with myself for leaving enough room on the envelope to fit Amy H.'s entire street name! I have written her many thank you notes over the years, yet somehow I always have to squeeze her street name onto the line or make it take up two lines.

Max joined the boys for some video games and chess, they love it when he agrees to play.

We hardly saw the girls (which is ideal) since they played in Eva's room most of the day, so we were fine with them coming to draw nearby. Eva chose to kneel at the piano bench...

while Whitney choose to stand at the kitchen counter.

I was mighty pleased with my output for the day. I finished my birthday thank yous and wrote several "just because" type cards as well, that always feels good.
