These are some pillows I found off the Quilted Bear. http://www.quiltedbear.com/store/pc/index.html Some have cute sayings like the first one for Grandma - others I think are darling like the "I'm a child of God" pillow. So cute!

Finished Sacrament Books
Earlier I posted that I wanted to use all my nice programs to make a quiet book for church. I finally finished. I decided I better make it very simple or I never would. They have actually been a big hit - especially with my Aubrey. She loves to look at the pictures and we try to use them to get Jacob to think about the Savior during the Sacrament. These are the finished books...
I simply pasted the cover of the program to a colored sheet of card stock then used self laminate and punched holes and tied with ribbon. Super easy and simple. (I probably could of used some fun ribbon, but I just used what I had on hand and it worked. :) )

Special Plate
Car Organizers
We are always in need of something to entertain the kids even for short car rides. I need something like these car bags to keep toys. This will hopefully be something I will find time to make in the near future. :)

CandleEyebra
A fun idea off of Family Fun http://jas.familyfun.go.com/crafts?page=CraftDisplay&craftid=12052. I wonder if there is some way to put a battery operated light inside. My kids would be the ones to start our house on fire if I used a real candle. :)
