  • Eeek! My awesome daughter had this reading journal made for me! It even has some fun coloring pages plus a big cupcake on my birth month 😍 Flip through my pix to see some of the cuteness that’s inside. This is such a fun idea and will definitely keep me reading throughout the year. She has one too and I hope at the end of the year we can swap books to read them. LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS plus it will remind me of her awesomeness everyday of the year... as if I don’t already.#bujo #readingbulletjournal #goalsetting
  • It’s National Law Enforcement Appreciation Day. As the wife of a police officer, I know how much goes into this job and I appreciate their time and dedication. I made this Thin Blue Line cowl 🚓 💙 last year and I’m finally going to post the pattern today. I used charcoal instead of black and some true blue ombre. I really like how it turned out. This cowl is really pretty in any colors for everyday too. #snappytots #crochet #joycreators #redheartyarns #crocheting #policewives #crochetpattern #thinblueline #leoappreciationday
