Bean Bag Sillies

Here's a clip of Tatum, Danika and Colben playing with Andi's bean bags last August, 2009, when Alexis and the kids were in UT visiting. Andi and Ralph were packed and ready to move to Billings, MT so this was our last bit of fun at their home in Richfield, UT.

My copycat tablecloth

So Andi sent me a text picture with a tablecloth she was making Danielle and my jealousy kicked into overdrive so I hinted that I would LOVE a tablecloth like hers... a couple weeks later I got a package in the mail and I got one too!!!

Mine doesn't have elastic around the edges so that way each of ours was a little different.

I hope this won't be the last one I get from Andi cuz they're awesome and so easy to clean!!

The BEST pillowcases around

I love how Andi takes into consideration what her nieces and nephews are into and what colors are in their bedrooms to make sure the pillowcase fits just right!!!

Danika goes through a lot of phases and Andi is able to keep right up with what she loves at the moment!!

(trust me, it'll change soon!)

Colben's first pillowcase- Motorcycles!!!
Colben's 2nd pillowcase.... She included a note saying the reason why she picked this material is because it's the flags for each of the teams that are playing the Soccer World Cup. Colben loves soccer so it was fun to figure out what flag belongs to what country!!

Danika's 1st pillowcase-- Dora!!!

Just a little monkey business!

Shortly after moving to Texas Andi sent us this box. I thought it was kinda strange because it had holes in it....

When we opened it and this is what was inside... a Monkey with food and water and a map showing us where it had traveled.

These are pictures that Andi took of the monkey before sending him to us!

This picture just makes me giggle because it looks so happy to come live at our new house!

Getting in some last minute stretches before going in the box for the long trip to Texas!

We're all bananas for Andi's creations!!!

Love how she thinks of the little things like putting a C for Colben on just 1 of the bananas.
He fit right in at our house and we're so happy Andi made him and sent him to us!

All About Aprons

This was the first apron Andi made and as you can see, Colben has grown out of it. Danika wears it so it's not leaving our house anytime soon!
I bragged to Andi so much about how awesome the aprons are so she kindly made some for Danika. She used extra pieces of material and love how she put pockets in the front!
Love the polka dot material!

It's fun to see all the different things Andi makes using the same material--- that way we all have something made with the "monkey" material!!

Please keep making aprons for the kids- their friends even love wearing them when they come over!

CONTEST: Who wears it best?

(I'm definitely voting for Chan because as you can see, I just carry utensils and Chan actually USES them...)
