Our Wonderful Years...

Over the course of the average lifetime you meet a lot of people. Some of them stick with you through thick and thin. Some weave their way through your life and disappear forever. But once in a while someone comes along who earns a permanent place in your heart.

Brown hair, brown eyes. When she smiled, I smiled. When she cried, I cried. Every single thing that happened to me that mattered, in some way, had to do with her. After all, she was my girl. And I knew that she understood that in some small way my achievements were her achievements.

Random Crafts!

A while ago, I went to Albertsons for some groceries and I walked by a guy and his two kids selling lavender from their farm. I bought a bunch because it smelled SO good. I love the smell of lavender. I had no idea what I was going to do with it, but I bought it any way.

Fast forward a few days when I decided to dry it and put it in the closet for a few more weeks.

Fast forward to two weeks ago when I'm in the middle of cleaning out the closet and find the massive bunch of dried lavender...

What am I going to do with this?!?

So I found some scraps and made some little sachets! They ended up being the perfect little additions to some Christmas Presents (which I've already gifted, so no surprise was ruined)... I even managed to keep one for myself. YAY!
I even got to practice my hand stiching on the ribbon additions.
