Getting Ready

{SCROLL DOWN FOR GIVEAWAY}

Hey!!! I am getting things ready for our trip to North Carolina TOMORROW! Whoa. It snuck up on me. Time just whizzes by!! But, guess what? My mom is flying MY BROTHER out there too!!! I get to see my little bro! I am THRILLED beyond words, and so are my girls. :)

I can't stay long, but wanted to share a couple things with you...

First, Erin of The Vintage Pearl is giving away one of her newest pieces!! Head on over to enter by clicking here!

On my way to ballet class with Zoe yesterday, I drove by a house that almost made me stomp on my breaks, and turnaround. But I resisted. I knew I could get it on the way back, which I did. Apparently, I am the last to know about this said house, but who cares. I had to share!!!





Now do you see why I wanted to stomp on my breaks? Who can tell me the significance of these signs... anyone? Not you Michael Benner! ;)


I finished the burp clothes for Angelina's teacher! They turned out REALLY cute!!!







I hope she loves them as much as I did! ;)

And, lastly... I share my newest addition to my camera strap slip covers!!!





A lens cap pouch!!!! You can request one on any camera strap slip cover in my shop! I have the above listed in my shop right now! If you want one, go to my shop! If you want a different fabric, just email me or send me a Conversation/Convo. :)

Oh! And click here to see a VERY FUNNY video that my husband sent me! I was cracking up on and off all morning! HILARIOUS!!!


OK! Back to getting things done around here. To my horror, my sewing machine broke AGAIN yesterday. Throwing a wrench in my previous plans of NOT sewing today. Ugh. So tired of breaking sewing machines. So, fortunately, I borrowed a machine from someone previously... so my machine is in the shop, but I can still sew.


Hope you are all doing well! Don't forget to enter the giveaway in the post below this one... Ends sometime on Saturday.



XOXO,

New Projects & Birthdays!!

Been busy being sick, sewing and taking care of my girls this week. Today is my Dad's birthday!!!

Happy Birthday Dad!!!!

We hope you have a wonderful day. We miss you so much. Wish we were there to have birthday dinner with you. :) Have some cake for me!!
So, since my dad's birthday is today, that can only mean one thing...

Zoe's 2nd Birthday is TOMORROW!!!!

Holy cow! I can't believe it. Where did this year go??? I will write Zoe's last monthly letter for her tomorrow, and from there it will be yearly like it is for Angelina. Of course I will then do random little notes about each little girl throughout the year. :) Just can't believe my little preemie girl is going to be 2 tomorrow. Crazy!!

Speaking of Zoe's birthday. We are having a little shindig over here on Saturday for her. So, I decided she needed something special to wear. This is what I came up with...

The tutu is re-purposed. It was Angelina's when she was in ballet in North Carolina. She can't wear stuff like that in a ballet class here, so I thought... hey! I can use that! ;) I just took off the purple ribbon that was originally around the waist band and took the same fabric I used for the 2 and put it on the waist band so it would match.

I bought the shirt at Target for a couple bucks, and then did a #2 applique on it -- since she is going to be 2, ya know. ;)

Did all that in about an hour. So, I was pretty happy about that! LOL. I think it turned out pretty cute.

I have also been making more Camera Strap *Slip* Covers for my shop. I changed the name of them by adding that word slip, because it seemed fitting. Them slip/slide onto your camera strap. ;) A few woman asked/offered to do Camera Strap Slip Cover giveaways in the next few days, so I need to have the shop stocked up. Here are the couple that I have made thus far: [of course there are more in my shop]




I had the Damask one [below] listed for less than a full day and someone bought it, so I had to re-list it this morning. LOL!


Well, that's about it for now. We are wanting/needing to have a garage sale this Saturday, so I have been trying to clean the garage and organize the sale stuff. LOL!! Not a fun or easy thing for me to do. There is so much stuff, and it is STILL HOT HERE! Supposed to be 92 degrees here. I miss the cold crisp fall weather.

So, what are your plans for this weekend? I am dying to know!! So, leave me a comment. ;)


XOXO,
