I am one sick lady! I woke up saturday with a sore throat and cough and it has just gotten worse. I think it may be getting a little better today but am not really sure. So while I have been busy dying - ok not really dying but you know what I mean, I made this cute little story board of Easter pics It is 8 X 10. I have printed it up and am putting them in frames for the Grandparents (Surprise to them if they are reading this :) ) I love how the girl's dresses turned out. I love sewing for them. The boys where just as handsome in their blue and yellow.

We had a quiet Easter at home with yummy food and a fun time. My Dear Heart bought me some wonderful perfume and shimmer lotion in Japanese Cherry Blossom. It has this wonderful earthy but light floral scent with a hint of vanilla. He went and picked it out all by himself and that meant so much to me. I am so blessed to have him. Smooches to you Dwight.

I have been tagged by Abby but I have to figure out what that means and I will post!

Ok os I decided for some reason that Jo needed bangs. well I know why- she has been chewing on her hair and the front is getting a bit ragged. But here is the thing. I am not sure I like her with bangs. She has never had them before so it may just be I need time to ge use to them. SHe loves them. I am thinking she looks more tomboy or something with them. What do you think? the first pic is from February and then the 2nd form this morning after the bang cutting. Anyway that is my dilema for this morning. (accents on photo by Alison Folendore)

Shopping part 2

Remember a few weeks ago I got all the yummy Gymbo clothes for SarahAnn at a great deal and got $25 in gynbucks? well it was gymbuck redeeming time. I got her these basics for summer. LOVEING the strawberry shirt! I will be making her some capris and skirts to match these as well. so between this set and the last (scroll down to see) she will be one stylin chica! I wanted to add some of the darling hair accesories but just could not make myself spend that much on things she loses often. So we will be hitting the dollar store for some hair tie deals. Love the Dollar store!

Ugh I feel so blah right now. Really just very tired. It could have something to do with the crazy barley 20 year old neighbors and their firworks (yes fireworks) at midnight and LOUD partying untill well past 2 am! Hello you do know your patio is right below and to the right of our window!! and that your bedroom where you ALL seem to hang out is right on the other side of the wall from OUR bedroom? Dwight and I had fun thinking of ways we could be noisy this morning - we are so evil. but then we decided not to do it cause we did not want to disturb other neighbors who they had kept up all night as well.


I have been reading a serious of books called "the summer of the traveling pants" they are really aimed at a younger age group (teen) but are pretty good. I have finished almost all 3 of them this weekend- just a couple chapters to go. But I am thinking NAP sounds good - as soon as I replinish all the Furbie batteries. Don't you wish you had my glamorous life? you know your jealous!

Well I went online shopping today. I got some clothes for my hubby for work - blah no fun,

but I also got some darling deals on Spring/Summer clothes for my oldest daughter from Gymboree. I hardly ever get to buy Gymboree clothes so It was cool to get these deals. I also got some Gymbucks to use in a few weeks! Are these not too cute? (there is another tshirt in Yellow)
