Fourth of July

This year for the 4 of July I stayed up the night before and made a cute little dress for Emily out of my Old Navy Flag shirt from last year. I used the tutorial found on Made, and I just love how it turned out. It wasn't as hard as I thought it would be especially considering that it was the first piece of clothing that I have ever made. I also made a cute little hair clip to go along with it.

We were able to go to the ward pancake breakfast. Just barely caught the end as they were starting to put the food away because I had to finish the dress, and we were getting the house ready to clean the carpets. It was such a perfect day to do the carpets because it was so warm, and they would dry super fast. After doing the carpets, and having a nap we went up to Nathan's parent's house before we headed over to my cousin Robin's for a BBQ.

It was such a fun afternoon. Good company and yummy food plus Emily had so much fun running around with her new pin wheel.
