sunflower stories pages home who am i learn about down syndrome deborah makes wednesday january 19 2011 vintage poncho wearing sisters rubs hands together gleefully i dug through a huge box of old photos and came up empty on my search for the vintage poncho wearing sisters so i called my mom she said she thought she had that photo and she d take a look forty five minutes later she called with the news that she found it and would get copies made for us me being the oh so impatient one hounded my dad to scan it and email it instead imagine my delight when i checked my email one last time before bed and found this prize waiting in my inbox click on it to enlarge yayyyyyy thanks mom and dad and sorry to my big sister ann and my younger sister tanya have to share it it s the best vintage photo ever i am guessing it was taken somewhere around 1978 we are standing in my elementary school gym possibly at a craft show or something i was in brownies then so it might of had to do with that oh my goodness it makes me grin so big to see this photo again posted by sunflowerstories at 11 39 pm 8 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels family just me acoustic birthday ballad sean s favorite song to sing right now is happy birthday to you he loves to serenade each of with this happy tune if it actually happens to be someone s birthday that he knows we will call them up and leave a singing telegram via voice mail the other day he stepped it up a notch and played guitar while singing he s daddy s little rock star video embedded posted by sunflowerstories at 10 11 am no comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels sean video sunday january 16 2011 a poncho for roo growing up as the middle daughter of three girls i have many memories of my sisters and i dressed in matching handmade items crafted by my mother s hands one piece in particular stands out as a favorite the crocheted ponchos she made us in shades of brown and orange a child of the 70 s a girly girl and the perfect garment for skipping dancing and twirling i might have to sift thru boxes of photos to see if there are any of us in the ponchos when i started knitting one of the first patterns i looked for was a poncho for eleanor ruby i found the knitting pure and simple children s poncho over a year ago but wasn t sure if my skill was ready yet then i found a beautiful yarn that i had to have to make into something lasting for eleanor to enjoy two skeins of mosaic moon mountain meadow worsted yarn in the selah colorway arrived with it s coordinating aqua trim back in october i had to sit it aside for months while i worked on christmas and birthday gifts i decided that my first garment of the new year would be ella roo s poncho i was pleasantly surprised by what an easy garment it was to knit i made the 2 4 year old size and didn t make any major changes to the pattern only thing i think i did was purl the first row of the hood so i had an easy marker for measuring the length of the hood as well as adding a design element to the neckline i also picked up four extra stitches on the hood because i thought it spaced the stitches out better than the recommended amount i worked on it a few hours a day for 11 days until i had it completely finished it s beautiful a perfect fit soft warm and just what i hoped for it warmed up to 22 degrees today so ella and i took a short walk in the sun with her favorite baby and her sparkly new shopping cart from nana i hope this is the first of many fun memories for her and her poncho finished piece finished piece in action posted by sunflowerstories at 11 37 am 8 comments email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels eleanor knitting

snowfall of the winter it started coming down sunday evening and snowed all night and thru the day monday i think we ended up with about 4 of soft fluffy pretty powder not bad enough to cancel school so both boys went to school while i stayed tucked home with ella i bundled eleanor up to go out once and she lasted just a little while before she said it was too cold she outgrew her cute pink snow boots from last year so she wore a pair of sean s hand me downs hee hee they were a bit big but she did alright in them after school and a snack the boys got geared up and we all went out again it s too bad we don t have a hill to sled on or pretty woods to take a quiet walk through they just stomped around in it a bit made some snow angels and tried to make snowballs it wasn t wet enough to make snow balls though so they just chased me and threw handfuls of snow at me silly boys we came back in and changed out of wet clothes then sean helped me get supper in the oven my grandma eleanor s mountain lady meatloaf is just what our cold day needed i made a side of mac cheese and some early peas to go with it my sister ann asked me awhile ago to write down the recipe for her so i thought i d just share it here enjoy and stay warm mountain lady meatloaf 1 1 2 lb lean hamburger meat i use the lean sirloin so there s not much fat 1 2 lb ground sausage the plain kind no spices added 1 10 3 4 oz can of tomato soup 8 to 10 saltines or ritz crackers crushed fine 2 t pickle relish 2 eggs well beaten 1 t crushed sage leaves 1 tsp salt i usually omit this since the crackers are salted 1 tsp fresh cracked pepper mix all ingredients together in a large bowl make sure to really work in the sausage as it likes to cling together if it seems to dry add a bit of catsup if it seems too wet add more crackers dump into bread loaf pan and shape into a loaf bake for 1 1 2 hours at 325 degrees remove and let rest 5 mins then very gingerly pour off any fat into your empty soup can so the fat can be thrown away turn meatloaf onto a platter and slice makes about 5 6 nice big slices my grandmother noted on her recipe the left over meatloaf is good cold for sandwiches the meatloaf should have a crisp brown crust this is a favorite recipe of my son dale i heart that lady posted by sunflowerstories at 10 39 am 1 comment email this blogthis share to x share to facebook share to pinterest labels

much easier for me to get her to sleep and lay her there than to try to carry her 28 lbs up old creaky wood stairs to her bedroom and hope she doesn t wake up works for me however my mom gave us a down alternative comforter for our king size bed for christmas when all three kids were home ill we opened it up and made a little nap mat on the cushy carpeted floor they napped on it snuggled on it
