Sweet sixteen: { Snow, Sewing, Sisters}

 ...And yes; Sweets.
 On the 26th I enjoyed a quiet beautiful snowy birthday. The lush blissful snow made it extra special and a first. I've never had a white Christmas or birthday. I had a relaxing day with laid back meals and schedule.Other than being sick I had a great day. I was able to work peacefully on my birthday sewing project... I finished it the day after. I had some quality time with my sisters enjoying the snow and playing my recent favorite game: banana grams, which I received on my birthday.

                                              A fun project finished.

I think next on my sewing adventures will be that dress pattern I've been meaning to make for so long,- before I make this.


So that sums up my special day. Beautiful, relaxing and stress- free. I ended my day with dinner at Olive garden and eating some of their yummy sweet desserts.




* I wanted to thank you all for your kind comments on my birthday post and on this post. I appreciate all your encouragement!



Did you all get any snow? :-) How did you enjoy your holidays and after holidays?

  6. Thanks every one! :-D

    Yes, Sereina. I used a pattern. I don't think I could make a skirt with out one very easily (yet). I am not that good... :-D
