Talented Women

I feel so blessed to have such talented family members! Since Olivia was born my Grandma A. has knit many adorable sweaters for my children. Besides making sweaters for her great-grandchildren, my Grandma knits and sells sweaters to raise money for charity--isn't that a great idea? In this picture Kyle is wearing a BYU sweater, which Brad was really excited about! Here is Great-Grandma with Olivia & Kyle wearing her sweaters at Easter. They LOVE their sweaters from Great-Grandma and other people compliment me on them all the time! Here is a picture of the most recent sweaters that she made! Thank you Grandma!
Brad's mom has made some cute baby blankets and a gorgeous quilt for Olivia. She made Brad & I an amazing quilt for our wedding. She is a very talented seamstress and made a dress that fit Olivia perfectly, without even seeing Olivia for a few months! She has also sewn me some skirts that I love because they fit so well.
My Mom has crocheted each of the kids really soft baby blankets and made lots of warm winter hats. She has also sewn them cute matching Hawaiian outfits. Here are their outfits from this year. Since we had such a ridiculously hot summer the kids had lots of chances to wear their matching shorts.
Thanks to each of you for spending so much time to make us such beautiful and thoughtful gifts! We love you!
