Project Life - January 2014
January 11
We both craving for Bavarian food today, so we went to Hafbrauhaus here in Las Vegas
I had Schweinebraten in Munich back in July, so I order the same thing
Munich
Hafbrauhaus Las Vegas
they don't look quite the same and don't taste the same and I take the one in Munich over this any time! Especially those crispy bits, yummy!

I am beginning to feel a little sad as Dolce will be going back to school in New York soon. I baked her favorite pumpkin pie for her
January 14
Dolce is leaving tomorrow, I feel even more today. This girl is so smart and brilliant in everything she does, a perfect little girl any mom could ask for....
When she came back in the summer, she decided to sew dresses for herself, without any prior sewing experience nor know how to use the sewing machine, she googled online and made this
and then this
and this...
and also the red dress on her
and just in 2 days, she hand-sewn this
and you have to remember, this girl doesn't know how to thread the sew machine before this, no sewing class either, just from reading instruction online and on pattern, isn't she brilliant?
January 15
Today is the day I am sending Dolce to the airport and catch her flight back to NYC, we take a lot of photos with Papi, this girl kiss and kiss Papi, we are all sad to see her go..
January 16
We are taking lots of photos to send to Dolce, I think she misses Papi dearly, this one is Papi fall asleep on my lap, he looks so sweet isn't he?
January 17
Now that both girls are back to college, I have more time in the craft room, Papi just tag along and stay by me in the craft room.
January 18
The sweetest part of Papi is when we said "night night" to him at night, he would just walk into his crate and sleep and the whole night through.
January 19
Today is also the first time we brought Papi to Brenda's apartment, just to prepare him for our up coming weekend get away
I am up to date for project life, since I am on the road and no new project, this is a good time for me to catch up with posting!

Dolce made all those things with no experience? WOW that is terrific!!! I bet you will miss her :-(. I see my dd every few weeks and I miss her horribly! Hopefully you will see her before to long! I love your daily!!!
Dolce is so pretty and very good at sewing; my favorite is the purse with the buildings on it. She is so talented! Singapore looks very interesting; love the people sculture; they remind me of gummy bears.

I get so emotional to see your pages and know how much it hurts when your child goes off from home. It's like a little knife in the heart. Your daughters are just amazing. My jaw is hanging open at Dolce's sewing skills! Holy Cow!
