Another project

I'm loving all the Oct Birthday's this month. Gives me a reason to get creative. Here is a lil guitar for a lil rocker chick. Lucy's friend just had a bday and so we made this for her! I think Lucy wants one now.

Adventure is out there!

We just got back from Disneyland where we got to do the Halloween night and trick or treat. So I thought what Disney characters can we be that I doubt I'll see anyone else dressed up as........guess what we were the only ones dressed like "UP", lil Carl, Ellie, and Kevin. The Disney workers loved Miles!

The things I made:

My wings/headband from scrap fabric

Miles goggles from felt/mason jar lids, shorts, and dyed sweater vest
Lucy's bottle cap pins, bow headband, sewed fabric patches on overalls

G.A.D!

My new church calling is Girls Activity Day's Leader...and I'm loving it so far. I knew I would, I mean come on it's only twice a month and I get to hang out with 10-11 year old girls and be a tween again! This was our activity last night. I had them make magnet boards with word strips of the "Articles of Faith" to help them memorize and pass them off in their goal books. They loved it and so did I!

Labor Day at the Lake!

It's a.....

Projects

I have worked on some new and fun projects lately...here they are...

I was inspired to do some cross stitching pendants from a blog called "doe c doe". I have been wanting to do it for sometime and had the perfect opportunity for my BFF Alex's bday!

For my cousin's new baby boy I made this warm soft blanket and a matching hat....I forgot to get a picture of the hat but this picture is what it looks like, but in the hounds tooth pattern. I got the tutorial and pattern HERE

Lastly my some what failed attempt at a hooded towel I made for my friend with two boys. This is after she washed them so you can see I need to work on figuring out how to make the towel not fray everywhere. It was fun and pretty easy..just gotta work on the details.

Be Silly!

So all of you who knows me knows all about my favorite thing in the World...and that is Silly Girls! It's something I look forward to every month and not only do I get to hang out with all my friends for a pretty awesome girls night, but we dress up and take pictures. You are never too old to be silly and play dress up's I say! If you don't know anything about Silly Girls United/ Shenanigans check out the facebook page to view all the photos from our group and different groups. Visit the Shenanigan blog for details if you want to be apart of something great!

It's been a full year since I first started with my friends and we have done a themed photoshoot every month. We look forward to another great year of fabulous pictures and FUN!

Fabulous Girls Weekend!

It started with my best friend Alex and I driving up to SLC! Hitting up our favorite Antique store!

Then JOSH GROBAN! It was amazing as usual. It was my 3rd Josh concert and they just get better and better!

This weekend is just what I needed for some good old fashion girl time!
