About Us

Andy and I met on a blind date in Dec. 2005. One of my 7th grade students was his neice, and she set us up. Go figure. We saw each other every day after that! We were engaged by June and married in September of 2006. In January, 2008, we welcomed little Ethan into our home, and in August, 2010, little Addison arrived.

Andy is a diesel mechanic at Kennecott. I taught middle school science for ten years, and am now an evidence-based learning specialist for a school district.

On a sewing bing!

I must admit that I'm an addict . . . 

I have become addicted to crafting, and LOVE to pull out the jewelry tools, the sewing machine, or the paint brush, but lately I've been working on many sewing projects.

 My friend Jethro and his wife Staci are HUGE BYU fans.  So, even though it pained me greatly to sew a pink Y onto a shirt, I did it for their new super cute baby!
 If you know me, you know that I LOVE Paris and especially the Eiffel tower, so I whipped up this fun eiffel tower outfit for little miss Addison.
 I had an old pair of levi's that had a broken zipper, so I created 2 different roasting stick bags.  I made the bag with our last name on it yesterday and thought that it turned out cute, but then tonight I made the one below for a wedding of the son of a good friend of mine, and I think theirs turned out much better than mine.  Oh well.
 And then little man informed me that he wanted our dog Duke to go trick-or-treating with him this year. Ethan, of course, is going as spiderman, so he wanted a spiderman costume for Duke.  I did the best I could of putting a little spider on this shirt I found.
