So, what do you do when you've just spent the last month practically chained to your sewing machine stitching up stuff that you hope other people will want to buy? Take a nap? Nope. You go to a few fabric stores and start beefing up your stash again!

Aren't they pretty. I just can't resist fabric. The second picture is all for a quilt for our new baby boy coming in January (I hope!), who will be named either Nathan or Gage (we think). the other stuff is just for fun, or for selling . . .time will tell. Also, did you know, its just a little over a week until Twilight? I don't think I'll be making the 12:01 am showing; I think I might opt for a Saturday matinee with a few friends. Sounds a bit more relaxing, right? And just for fun, check out my cuties! Vivian got AWFULLY dressed up to ride her bike up and down the sidewalk! And Sophie is showing off her long eyelashes. Yes, I'm jealous!

Whew!

Well, the Holly Days Craft Show is over and I'm glad. It was a LONG day (I woke up at 3 am - thank you pregnancy- and then after the show had to get ready for Stake Conference). I didn't sell TONS, but I made a nice little chunk of change and it was fun. I loved my table setup and wish I would have taken a picture of it, but I didn't. Anyway, now I have to put all the stuff that didn't sell in my Etsy shop, so that should continue to keep me busy. In the meantime, here are my cuties modeling some of the goods I had at the show:

Wicked Witches, Ruby Slippers and Pumpkins

I'm having problems with this post, it cut the pictures off, but if you click on them then you can see the entire picture.

Happy Halloween!!!

It has been a good holiday. We got the girls dressed up last night for the ward trunk or treat which gave Viv just the right amount of candy. I'll get some pics of them later.

Alright, so the New Kids on the Block concert was AWESOME! Natalie and I had so much fun. We thought we'd have no voice the next morning, but we did, so that's a good thing. The girl sitting next to Natalie got sick though and threw up at the end of the concert. It smelled nasty and got on Natty's shoe, pants, purse, etc. GROSS! Why didn't she just leave???? The girls sitting behind us were big Donny fans, so whenever he was up on the big screen or singing they would go nuts. I never liked Donny; we always thought he was kinda dirty and nasty and it turns out, things haven't changed much. Although he has stopped wearing pants so ripped up that we're all in danger of seeing stuff we don't want to, so for that, I'm grateful. We had awesome seats and when they came to sing at the piano we were like 30 or 40 feet away, which was awesome! It was the best. Thanks for going with me Nat!

Countdown

37 days . . .Can you wait?????




And in just 9 days I'll be seeing this:


My boys still have it . . . I should be sewing right now.

2 New Nephews and More Busy

Well, things have been uneventful, but busy. I finished the quilts for Ben and Jocelyn's babies, who are SOOOO cute! Not the quilts, the babies, although the quilts aren't bad either. I was even able to squeeze out some burp cloths from the extra fabric! I went to the Vera Bradley outlet sale this last week with Natalie and got the cutest umbrella, for dirt cheap. Just the way I like it. I also started work on my first craft show. It is Nov. 8, which means I honestly should have started work a long time ago. I got my first round of dresses done, which means I only have 40 more to make . . . yikes! Plus countless headbands and pins. I'll be busy busy. Also, here are a few pics from the Johnny Appleseed Festival and some other fun stuff we've been up to.
