Use different size paper to make these cuties in any size! You will find the written and pictorial pattern for the Origami Bunny Head below.
Astronomy Fluxx is quickly becoming a favorite here At Home. Our budding astronaut, Vada, wants to play it all the time and it’s so fun that I almost always say yes. We’ve been having a blast playing, and we have all learned some interesting facts and dates from this game. Considering we are a family of outer space nerds, that’s saying a lot!

Middle school beginnings can be so rough, but I am super happy to say the twins are handling it like champs! They have great friends and great attitudes. We’ve had some bumps that are typical at their age, but we are working through them. Every night ends with “I love you”, and every morning starts with “good morning.” So I call that a win.

A couple week ago they were finally able to adopt her. Facebook immediately blew up with pictures and stories of their loving family. So today I thought I would celebrate a bit more by sharing some free crochet patterns that show off family bonds.

Needlepoint fun today! Needlepoint on plastic canvas is a great way to get into needlepoint, and it’s easy and relaxing. I just love watching my creations come to life. If you want to start out, or if you just don’t want to design your own, kits are an awesome way to go.
