Groundhog Day, 2011

This week has been fairly dry and cool, so Ron and I managed to get the plum and apple trees pruned. They don't appear to have had a haircut in quite some time and I am hoping I didn't butcher them too badly.

Last night we finished picking up all the supplies to make the vest for Kaili's Highland Dance costume. I had to order the buttons, braided trim and pattern online. Unfortunately, the kilt that we thought we were getting for her turned out to be too small. Now we are once again, on the hunt good used kilt (and socks) that will fit her! It would be a bonus if we can find one to match the fabric I have all ready bought for her vest. If we can't, I'll just have to pick up more velvet. . .maybe black this time?

I managed to finish sewing the blouse for Kaili's dance costume today, then Ron and I watched Ground Hog Day on Netflix. We are supposed to get back into the wet stuff again for the week end. The kids seem to be settling into their new classes nicely and are busy, busy, busy.
