While the scouts are away....














If any of you have boys in Brian's scout troop, you are very lucky. Brian spent a lot of time getting everything just right for this camp out. He even made bread dough for the boys to cook over the fire! He really is a GREAT scout master. He has put in over 35 hours of scouts this week. I don't think anyone can top that! (Until scout camp in August that he will be gone 5 days or so.) I've had my fair share of complaints concerning this calling, but today I am grateful for a husband who magnifies his calling and does what is asked of him.
So, while the scouts are away..... we play! The kids were entertained by the nice weather! They played in the backyard pool and put water down the slide on the swing set. (Sorry, no pictures, Brian had the camera). We watched a movie and ate popcorn! I was also able to sew a little. I've been wanting to make these little bags since I saw my sister's bag, but haven't gotten around to it until now. I got 3 bags done! They were really easy and fun to make. They are to hold diapers and wipes. Since knowing about these bags, I have been noticing how much my diapers get smashed at the bottom of the diaper bag. They won't any more! I don't know what they call these bags, but maybe someone could help me come up with a name for them. Better yet, I will send a bag to whoever comes up with the best name. How fun!

Cute bags, I have no idea what the original name is, but let's see...how about, Diaper Wraps?

My friend makes and sells these "Diaper Duty" bags online, they look very similar. evelynkate.etsy.com
Great job Holly!!

I like that name -- "Diaper Duty." Those are so totally cute! You should totally have those on display for the next Super Saturday -- a bazillion people would sign up to learn to make them (including me!)

I have a son in scouts with Brian! And he had a great time on this trip. The bags are darling! Perfect to just throw in your purse for a quick trip out. Can't think of a name with diaper in the title, but how about "Chic Cheeks"? Ok- it's late- that's my excuse. :) ~Emily

Once again, LOVE them.

How 'bout "keepin' it neat" or "Tidy Whitey diaper carrier" I'll keep racking my brain. Super cute! Love it.

How about Tidy Totes? Dainty (or Dapper) Dipes?

Holly,
This is a side note, I bought gamma lids at Wal-Mart the other day for $4.38 each I meant to call you in case you needed any more.

Holly,
I was at Wal-Mart last night and they did not have anymore Gamma lids. If you do need more I would call the Lindon Wal-Mart. They have more stuff. :-)

We are all about bathroom humor so I'm going for the name...Poopy pouch! What do you think?
