Fancy Flip Flops and Flower Hats

We were scheduled to leave on our vacation Saturday...as usual we are having to delay our plans. I am in the midst of writing a grant and have to finish it before I can go on vacation (due 6/16 I will turn it in on 6/12 - pray for my productivity this week). In an effort to inspire some creativity (I am fresh out) so that my writing in the grant will be above the rest we spent some good family time Saturday and some good craft time Sunday.

Here are some pictures from my time at the craft table...

Fun stuff...Jorja an I will be sporting matching caps and flip flops this summer!

So cute! Love the brown ones. I can't wear cute flip-flops like this because the stuff tickles my feet like crazy!

Sorry your vacation plans were affected. How's the grant coming?
