What we've been up too


I am in full on planning mode for Zac's birthday in November with a superhero theme, and this week I made a shirt, capes, and masks for the occasion! Keep in mind I have never sewn anything in my life so this was an undertaking for me. I saw a shirt on ETSY that I just fell in love with but the price just wasn't right for me, so I decided to try my hand at it. A few t-shirts, felt, yarn, and some bonding later I have Zac's birthday outfit....Super Zac! I could only find a blue t-shirt with a pocket so I tried to incorporate it the best I could. The yarn around the 3 wasn't nearly as difficult as I thought it was going to be.
 I cut out the foam mask and strung the elastic!
To complete the ensemble I cut out a cape fit for my little super hero from a medium sized Adult shirt. Super Zac is so excited about his upcoming celebration! I know it doesn't look perfect but I'm pretty pround of the results.
We have also all been SICK! You know when the Ward's get sick we don't do a halfway job! So collectivly our family has had 5 injections, 5 rounds of antibiotics, 2 rounds of steroids, and lots and lots of breathing treatments. We are all hopefully on the mend now and we're just praying we won't have a winter like we did last year!
