Lost Treasures




While I was pregnant with my daughter, I became a Fabric Junkie and could not stop collecting beautiful fabrics that I would come across.  Of course I didn't do anything with them, I would just put them in the bin of Things To Do One Day.  

Well I was going through my bin the other day and found a Baby Blanket I had started for my daughter and never finished.  So I decided to finish it! 

My new goal is to Start to finish all my Things To Do One Day, I have so many beautiful things I have bought and they are all sitting in plastic bins, just wasting away. I'm SO guilty of doing this all the time.

So here is  my 1st project that I can check off my Things to Do One day List!!! :)

My New view from my back Porch



I was putting away dinner and glanced out my back window to check on my daughter playing outside and instead just saw the sky and all the amazing colors it was showing.  I've never seen anything like it.  I went outside and pointed to the sky and my daughter said " oh pretty." It really took my breath away. ( photos never do justice)

Well I know as of today why the sky had so many pretty colors and clouds, there is a huge storm today.  I wake up to hearing a howling noise coming from my chimney in the front  room.  Then I open the back door to let my dog do her business, and to my shock we had no more patio furniture or baby toys in the back yard.  Everything blew into our neighbors yard! OMG!!!  I run inside and grab a coat, of course I'm still in my pajama's, but I don't care, it's starting to rain as I'm hoping my neighbors fence.  Oh yeah, there is a fence too, how in the hell did this happen?!

Of course what can make this experience even better...... the howling wind whipping my hair in my face and the pouring rain that started really coming down.  So I'm over in my neighbors yard tossing all of our things back over the fence and then dragging everything close to the house and closing things up.  The umbrella was really fun, not!  But as I was finishing up, I just started to laugh and couldn't stop.  I think I ever brought a tear to my eye!

So I went inside and took a hot shower and got all cozy in my sweats and made a hot cup of coffee, sat on the couch and cuddled with my daughter and watched cartoons, can it get any better?!

So note to self in the future, pretty sunset with amazing clouds= BIG Storm the next day and you better pick up or you'll be over in your neighbor's yard again in pajama's and Soaking Wet!!!

Holidays Weekends Rock!




Oh how I love long weekends! We really enjoyed it, having our family and friends up for a weekend of fun and relaxation.  We had a lot of BBQ'ing going on, boating, fishing and catching some sun!  We even saw a Pirate ship and fed some ducks on the lake. 

Birthday Celebration At Disneyland


We took our little Chubby Baby to Disneyland and had a great time.  This was the 1st time she walked around on her own and wasn't pushed in the stroller the whole time.  To see her face when she saw the parade  was priceless.  She seemed so grown up bc she interacted so much and is so verbal know, we really had a great time.

Of course I wanted to make her something special to wear for her Birthday celebration, so I made her a little apron that she wore over a black tutu, then we added Minnie Mouse ears and BAM- she was ready to go!

Here is a shot of her walking down Main Street
