High Tea, History, and Headbands

 Fun week for the sisters! 

On Saturday we went to Dove's Nest high tea, and it was really great. We dressed up in our pastels and dresses, put our pinkies up, and enjoyed eachothers company. 

The food was delish, lots of sandwiches and scones, desserts and of course tons of tea options! 

Then we had a nice little family dinner and played outside. Because on the longest day of the year you don't have to rush, because the sun probably hasn't set yet. 

Then on Sunday we went to heritage park!! Sister #3 first time and it was really great! We read about ghosts, explored the houses, and drank root beer. I always love it there cause it feels like you've stepped onto a movie set or travelled back in time. 

Sister #4 went on a knitting spree this week!! Here's my latest additions to my yarn collection. 

Also I got this really neat yarn called tee shirt yarn, it's like a cotton yarn. It's very soft and feels like a tee shirt that has been cut into thin strips. I don't know how else to explain it. It'd be good for a beginner knitter because it doesn't fray and it's easy to work with. 

Here's a headband I made with my dusty purple yarn, size 4 lion brand. Here's the pattern I used! 

App suggestion of the week! Charades!!! It's so much fun to play. We played for hours! They have different categories and you can make your own! Fun for hours!!

On the Road Again

Weekend road trip to Kallispel with the family - minus sister #1 

I've got my snacks, needles, value village purse, tfios magazine, books, (fight club and Amy and Rogers epic detour) and freshly painted toesies! 


I've also made my current favorite snack. A combination of roasted almonds, dried cranberries, dark chocolate chips, and unsweetened organic coconut flakes!! YUM 
Best snack to just throw in your purse in case of emergency snacking. 


I've also been loving this app for this road trip called musictube. You can create playlists from YouTube music and you can then watch or listen to them offline. This way I can take my favorite youtubers with me! 

I've already rewatched all of Troye Sivan's videos....

REALLY handy if your need some entertainment to keep you occupied if you're like me and get bored to ford on road trips. Give it a try, it's free!
