Goodbye Summer

It has been a while since I updated and I finally put pictures on my computer after about two months! We have been busy. We had youth camp with our church and Ruthie's birthday. Now we are getting ready for Ruthie's birthday party this weekend. Here are some pictures from the last month or so to catch up on:

We made this fun canopy from adding grommits on a thrift store sheet.
I saw it on Sew Mama Sew.

This was a genuine hug I was able to capture, they were hangin' out on the couch together reading while I vacuumed.

Here is a very beautiful bad fishing hole we tried and all we caught were a bunch of mosquito bites all over us.

We made a makeshift fort in the back yard under our maple tree.
So fun!!!

I love it when they make each other laugh

Feeling very proud of her new hideout

I found this table and chairs at my local thrift store and I decided to refinish it top secret for Ruthie's birthday:

After
The girls' first time seeing it here
Happy Birthday Ruthie!
We love you so much big four year old

I also got this dollhouse kit at the thrift store! Score!And I just love this fabric on the sheet we got.

So, I love thrift store shopping and my daughter got thrift store gifts for her birthday but she was happy with them.
There is a very cold chill in the air already and we barely even had summer yet. I usually love having four seasons but even I will admit we didn't get much of a summer this year. So this means it is time to hunker down and start more crafting or sewing projects right?
