Which one should I pick? It is now updated on the last post!

Those were some very good descriptions! I still haven't decided which one I like the best (you made this very hard for me). I'm going to have a friend help me choose today and I will let you know today or tomorrow who won the pattern. If anyone wants to add a description you are welcome to, the contest is open until I announce the winner. . xoxo, Samantha . The picture has nothing to do with the post, but I have this thing against posts without pictures. I don't like it. So this is another one of my favorites from the beach of Jake and Molly.

Samantha,
Finally caught up on your blog and all the beautiful pictures. I love the girls in their white dresses. And how did Tim grow up so much overnight? It must be the camera angle-yea that's it. He's so handsome.
I can't think of anything better for the pattern description that hasn't already been said, but I know I will order one when they are in print, because it's so darn pretty. Besides knowing you created it (you being such a sweetie), the cover is just one of those that makes you want to buy it-really, your friend who designed it is very talented as well-and your picture of the dresses is a big part of the inspiration!

Hey! I just wanted to tell you to go check out my blog. In the pictures of my daughter's 2nd birthday party is a picture of her in the Ms. Molly dress I made for her birthday.

I used your birdie applique for her dress as well as the goody bags and they were a huge hit!!!!

I know that Jake is Molly's uncle but it is unreal how much they look alike. They could pass as brother and sister in this picture.

The Handmade Dress Infomercial: Do you suffer from scrached DVD's?

Do your children cry when they can't watch their favorite movie because of irritating scratches? Are you sick of paying good money for movies that are scratched minutes after you take them from the case? Do you often wish that we could just go back to VHS because you could leave them out in the rain, bring them in and use them for a coaster, and then let the baby throw it for fun and it would STILL WORK!? ME TOO ! . We have struggled for years with scratched movies that were no longer watchable, but not anymore! We have finally found the secret formula to rid you of this nasty little problem forever! . Crest Kids Toothpaste! YES, that's what I said! Kids toothpaste! . A few months back I heard some place that toothpaste would take of scratches and I tried it and it didn't work, then the other day out of pure desperation I tried it my way. IT WORKED! So I decided this kind of news could not be kept secret, I have to tell the world! So I

New triple bunks.

Ben designed new bunk beds for the "girl's dorm" and "boy's dorm" in our house. We LOVE them!! We are almost done with all of the work, just a few loose ends left to tie up, but I couldn't wait to show off his handy-work. This is the girl set. We stained them with colored stain and we really like how that turned out. It's almost the color of cranberries. I still need to paint the boards that are attached to the wall. I'm going to paint them the color of the wall so that it looks like the beds are floating. :)  This is the boy set while still under construction. We ordered new bunk mattresses, but they haven't come in yet. I will show you guys pictures when they are completely finished. We stained these green, it looks like the color of bamboo. The kids LOVE these beds! And oh the space we have now! I'll be back soon with finished pictures! xo, Sam If any of you make beds using these plans could you send us a picture? We
