Finally!!!

Well I have been saying it for awhile but I've finally took the plunge. I have told myself I would find a hobby to keep myself busy when Kyle isn't home. I have been following some blogs that have way cute ideas for crafts and I've finally started some. They are for sure not the best looking but they were fun. I made some carrots from styrofoam and fabric and they were the easiest thing I've tried so far. I found them Oopsey-Daisy Blog http://oopsey-daisy.blogspot.com. They were pretty easy to make.

These next pictures I saw on the blog http://becauseicancrafts.blogspot.com. I first made the Valentine ones and then moved onto the Easter Egg. I figured I would try to get some more holiday crafts since I only have ones for Halloween and Christmas. These crafts were pretty cheap since most of the stuff I got from the dollar store and our Roberts Crafts is closing so everything is way cheap. I do have to admit these were not the easiest things to make cuz of the moss. I'm just glad I finished them but storing them won't be much fun either.



I've had fun and it's been nice to have something to do. I am in the process of making a puff quilt and I hope I will finish it in the next few months. I've been working on it for about 5 years on and off. It has been a long time since I've made one and I've had a hard time putting it together. Oh well it will look way cute when I'm finished.

CELEBRATION!!!!

This weekend we had alot going on. First we celebrated my Grandma Bleazard's 100th birthday!!! She is such an amazing woman. She seemed really with it and in good spirits. We had a huge turn out and there were people there that weren't able to make it last year. Tons of pictures were taken and good food was served. My mom had made a poster of how many grand children, great grand children and even great great grand children but do you think I can even remember the numbers?? I will have to look up my sisters blog cuz I'm sure she will know all the numbers. I got to see my cousin Sandy who I haven't seen in 10 or so years. I'm so glad that my grandma was able to live to 100 years to bring us all together. I love you Grandma!!!

This picture is of my family with my Grandma Bleazard.We are such a good looking group!!

My siblings. I don't know what I would do without them. I am a lucky person to have the brothers and sister that I have. Thanks guys for always putting up with my crap!!!

My cousin Sandy. Growing up I didn't have many cousins my age that were girls but there was always Sandy. We always had a good time whenever we were together. Sandy I'm so glad you haven't changed. Your husband seems way cool. I can't wait for us to get together and cause some more trouble!!! Vegas here we come!

My new niece Claire. Brian and Becca are the proud parents of red head Claire. She is a doll. She fits in this family well with the red hair and really looks like Savanah's twin. Brian blessed her this sunday and did a great job. Claire never made a peep either.
This weekend was a great weekend. I got to see lots of Aunts and Uncles, cousins and past friends. This was the first time since Claire was born that all my family was able to get together. I have missed my family so much and this weekend was perfect. I LOVE my family!!!

Alice In Wonderland

This past weekend Kyle and I went to see Alice in Wonderland. I had been looking forward to it ever since I saw the previews and because I really do like Johnny Depp. He is good in everything he does! Also I have never seen a movie in 3-D so that sounded like fun. It was a pretty cool movie. The plot was alittle dark but over all I loved it! The acting was pretty good and the animation was awesome! I don't have a favorite character but I thought Alice was good and so was the Mad Hatter. I would totally go see this again in the theaters and I will definately buy this movie. Thank you Kyle for taking me to the movie!!!

Kyle was nice enought to let me take a picture of us in our way cool 3-D glasses!!
