This weekend I:
* talked to Kat while driving
* was surprised by a bouquet of beautiful flowers
* ate super delicious C.C.-made tacos
* had a family sing-along to Grease
* packed mucho mucho Tupperware boxes in a multi-person attempt to move my parents from their house and into a RV
* made great friends with a label maker named Larry
* stacked boxes in truck beds
* stacked boxes in barn
* ate hot dogs, cake and pickles at a special 3-year-old boy's birthday party
* played Wahoo... and lost
* had fun at church
* bought an empty carton of sushi because I ate it while grocery shopping
* watched West Side Story
* partied at a Super Bowl gathering
* made yum pizza in the outdoor pizza oven
* talked about how yum the pizza was
* drove back to CS Monday morning with a fake house tree in my back seat
* drank coffee that C.C. brought over before my early-morning departure
* typed this list... and realized that... today is Monday... hence, the list of what I did this weekend has been compromised :-)

Oh well :-) :-) :-)

Mission- Complete first refashion
Inspiration- found here

Meet my first project.
One that will most likely take me a couple months to finish as I have a way with knotting up the thread on my machine. :-)

Using a too-big-for-me shirt, can I snip and clip and sew my way into cute history?
I believe I can. Especially if I can win this fun contest! (http://fabulous-k.blogspot.com/2010/01/lisa-leonard-giveaway.html)

Before Christmas, I took senior pictures of my sweet sisterfriend Devin.
I think she's sooooooooooo cute. :-)

Wouldn't this be fun as a series? FUN!




Look at the pretty girl :-)


We took this red chair from my mom's kitchen down to the bottom pasture because...





We wanted pictures with the cowwwwwws :-) :-)



My favorite. Wouldn't this be fun on a canvas???




Sigh.
That was fun. :-)

A new year's resolution of sorts-- not buy random clothes.

I resolve to, this year, only buy quality pieces that reflect my style. Clothes that are classics.

THE black pair of slacks. THE special sweater. THE well-made jeans.

Better yet, I would like to go through my closet and start repurposing my clothes. Make my old sweaters new again by sewing on ruffles or flowers or buttons. ... like this lady (http://mymamamadeit.blogspot.com/).

“Twelve fallen Aggies — the Spirit of the 12th man. Indeed, it is a link that will bind us together always. For as long as there is a Texas A&M and as long as there are Aggies who cherish one another we will never forget these 12.”

I’m thankful for completed deadlines… and being able to read the comics on a Monday morning :-) :-) :-)
