Santa Cruz...

 ...the pillow.  I have been seeing lots of patchy quilted things out there on the Internet and it got my creative juices flowing.  I am really digging the fabric line Lucy's Crab Shack by Sweetwater.  I stitched Santa Cruz, California on linen and then added it to the Lucy fabric.  The kids really like this pillow for some reason, they fight over it?  Maybe I will make another one...

 Madi on her birthday the other day.

 Ummm Dad you forgot one candle.

I got these candles that the flame was the same color as the candle and for some reason Madi acted like they were going to blow up or something.  She is too funny.
