oops- forgot the bird , baby tees and hooter hiders

My first order!

awhile back I did a harvest boutique with whitney and her sister abbey, marta and some other crafty ladies who i didn't yet know. my main item that i was selling was applique baby clothing. i sold most of my clothing but had alot of people asking me to do things in adult and bigger kids sizes. here is my first order for a lovely lady names andrea. i'm so thrilled she loved everything and has already begun another order. i just applied for an official buisness license so that i can get wholesale pricing on american apparel clothing. i will be offically opening up shop in january. stay posted for details!

sorry for the horrible pictures. the lighting was horrible that time of night and things just weren't working out...

my oldest pirate

As previously mentioned before, every thanksgiving my Granny Sue and Grampy John throw a pirate party. Each year Grandma comes up with ever better and more exciting pirate games and festivities. Well this year Granny got super crazy on us! The whole day was filled with fun nonstop from the $50 pirate bingo game ( that I won!) the pirate clothespin bottle drop ( that I also won, not to brag or anything but I was on a roll this year) down to the dicing for booty game. You all have probably played a version of this sometime in your life but never like this. There are 4 dice sets that are passed around in a circle, if you get doubles you get to pick a prize from the middle or steal one from your neighbor. Well that is how the game normally goes... this year there were so many presents that we couldn't even fit them all in the room with all of us in there too. It was so fun to see the kids carrying in load after load of presents as the free space in the room quickly disappeared! We got so many neat and wonderful things.. some favorites included the sinking ship book ends, the huge knife, the trader joe bag of goodies, pirate ornaments, fun toys for the boys, not to mention the skull and crossbones paper weight, cookbooks, lantern and candle. A great big huge thanks to my favorite grandparents for treating us to a wonderful and piratey vacation.

my little minnie

This year I decided to make as many Christmas gifts as I could. I thought it would be fun for margo to get a dress up bag with some new fun things. Next up...a crown, tutu and cape. Even though ezra is modeling the minnie skirt for you all, he will soon be giving it up to margo. This could be a disaster...last time I made something for margo ( a pink tutu) he got attached to it and was not very happy when I hid it from him.

making me happy

I found these pictures from a few months ago and they made me laugh. We found this wig at my mom's, hunter grace ( our yellow lab) also tried it on and i must say she looked stunning! Eli loved it, Ezra hated it.
