YEAH . . . a Kindle !!

I finally ordered a Kindle !! . . . YEAH . . . I'm so excited . . . I should have it in the next couple of days . . .

everyone I know that has one . . . lovesssssssssssss it . . . I sure hope I do too . . .

I do think I will really like it when I travel to California . . . no more carrying a pile of books to read . . . just download what I want onto my Kindle !!

now I'm in the process of going through all my books . . . I'm either going to have a big book sale . . . or just donate them . . . but I do know I finally don't want to be collecting books anymore . . . I am only going to keep my signed 1st editions . . . everything else MUST GO !!

I SURE DO HOPE I LIKE MY NEW KINDLE !!

Cultural Day at School . . .

at the end of the month Sienna and Olivia will be celebrating "cultural day" at school . . . Isis recently found out that she is a descendant of the Fulani people of Nigeria . . . so we did some research on the Fulani clothing colors and designs . . . and I went shopping in my stash for fabric to make them each a little outfit to wear . . .

'

at first I chose the fabric in the 3rd photo . . . but Adam thought it looked more Indian than African . . . so then I went STORE shopping . . . and found the fabric that is in the 2nd photo . . . looks like we're going with that one . . .

'

I'm going to make them each a little tunic with a wrap tie for around the waist . . . and possibly a kerchief to tie on their heads in the back . . . it depends if "Mommy & Daddy" decide to buy them the Fulani straw hats we found in the 1st photo . . . I'm voting for the hats !!
