Won't you be....my neighbor?!

I've made reference on more than one occasion that I have some dang good neighbors. They're kind, considerate, not overbearing and a lot of fun to be around. We have some nieghbors in the cul-de-sac that are close to us in age with a little girl in between our kids. They're great! Always available to party - whether it's at our place or theirs - or maybe headed to Birmingham in a limo! They're great folks!
Right next door to us, we have some retirees (from Las Vegas) that are top notch! Not only have they been bringing my new mama dog a healthy plate of fattening food every night for the past week, they also made my kids the most adorable Trick or Treat bags for Halloween! October 31st is going to be great in my neighborhood this year!

Adorable, right? And I couldn't begin to explain my neighbors without giving you a glimpse into John and his preferred mode of transportation to the neighbors house! I call it his "drink cart"!

One Creative Mama!

So, in all my years, I had no idea that my mama could sew. Me - can't even sew a button. I knew she was capable of that...but check out this adorable dress she made for Hallie! That's a day well spent with the kids if you ask me! She's taking orders and she'd be glad to make your child one too! (I most likely just signed her up for something she didn't agree to...but isn't that what daughters do!?)
I should add that it's the extra mile she went to make it great! She sewed the edges wear the ribbon goes through the top so that it won't come out and leave you having to fish it through with a safety pin. She added the cutest pocket too!
Great job mom! Hallie loves it! She can't wait to wear it to school tomorrow!
