Happy Blankie...


So last night Bill took Hunter and Brock on a "boy's night out" to go see Indiana Jones. They've been looking forward to it for a LONG time! Dad came home from work early and they were off to the theaters. They came home pretty psyched and happy. Good times for dad and sons!
So what did the rest of us do while they were movie watchin' zombies? Well... if you must know- Hannah, Barrett, Bauer and I went to good 'ol Mickie D's for some DELICIOUS (not) dinner and play area fun! It passed the time quickly anyways. Then we came home and put Barrett to bed and Hannah and I got busy making her a blanket.

You see, she's been begging me for weeks to make her a cuddly "happy blankie." Everytime I am sewing-- (which is almost every day) she begs and begs. So tonight, mama pulled through. I got out all my scraps and patched together a pink & green happy blankie for my girl. It took about an hour to throw together and Hannah worked right along side me. She pushed the pedal on the sewing machine like a champ! She was SO excited with the finished product:

Needless to say, she had "happy dreams under her happy blankie!" Love you Hannie!!
