look at that face!

I got a visit from little Eli yesterday. He has grown so much and is smiling all the time. It's amazing how much he has changed.

Yesterday was the first gathering of my crafty friends on an afternoon. We've been getting together when time allows during the week, but with busy work and baby schedules, we decided to try an afternoon meeting and Kate named it "Crafternoon." I think it was quite successful...very cozy and relaxed.

Amanda, Sarah and Eli came over a little before crafternoon started and we visited for a while, which was nice because we hadn't seen them in a couple weeks. Then we were joined by Amanda and Marcella and then Kate and her co-worker Amanda (lots of Amandas.)  We spent the afternoon catching up, knitting, sewing and scrap-booking. It was really nice time and I think we'll probably stick afternoons, especially because we love the name so much.
