Big Give for MistyMouse/Dylan

Dallas is NOT a good model! He did want to keep the outfit though!

ETA:

About to send it out and does anyone have an idea as to what I should put for to whom? It has an address but no name? Should I just put Misty? or Dylan and her ID or something? I know the post office will not deliver an item with just an address. Any thoughts?

Karen!!! I loved our trip today!!! How CLOSE were you???
Where do we go next???

Well, these pics weren't just from 1 concert, so the seating was different for each pic, but I think the furthest back I was was row 6 center and the closet I was was row 1 center, then row 3 center. I had really good seats!

Love your trip report! So cool to see barry! Was it a surprise or did you know he would be there? Very fun!

Nah........ I knew he was there. I was just trying to surprise you guys!

Well DUH!!! you couldn't see my pics cause I moved them to another photobucket folder....here's a glimpse.

and again....I thought this was too funny, I asked her to "pose" and got this

I will not be sewing her a very cute pair of pants to go with it for saturday though b/c I now have a splint on my ankle and an immobilizing brace on my knee. I apparently sprained my ankle and most likely have some soft tissue damage to my knee. They also gave me a shot of toradol for my hip. They gave me some drugs but I probably won't take them and told me to
STAY OFF OF MY FEET... The swelling seems to have gone down since my ankle was immobilized and I absolutely cannot use it. I tried to argue that at work I sit all day and he said no go, I need to be RESTING w/ my ankle and knee elevated.
So I'm back on crutches.
My mom is out of town so I am camping out on the office couch w/ the phone. I had to do a little work on the schedule so I thought I would check in w/ you all before I went back to the couch.

HOPE everyone is doing well.

I'll be at BWV from the 8th-11th. Where is everyone else staying??

thanks..ive never herd of them b4 they r cute

 

[luvinyou]

you guys talk way too much! lol I went on a mini vacation for 4 days, and had over 20 pages to catch up on! I skimmed through them and I love all the new creations, they are all beautiful. Especially Tom's little Mermaid outfit, I want it!

 

[minnie2]

Oh my I sure hope you are feeling better today!

OK - I got Mickey done. I think I'm going to do a cake or something on the back after the front is completely dried. Not sure if I want to do something on the legs... thoughts on that?
Or maybe put a cake on one of the legs and balloons on the back? OR??

I'm trying to not over analyze it... I guess I'm happy with it. If anyone sees something that could be improved (touched up etc) please say something! Like I said before, I won't take offense. This is only the second time I've done fabric painting. (and, no, I don't do any other painting either...)

Jessica - thanks for the information. I figured it was something to help out kids, but didn't understand what/who it was for. That is really cool that y'all are doing that! I'll peek at the site later. DS is longing for some attention since I've been glued to the table all morning painting that outfit.

It came out great!

I'm almost done with the new books- just have to get binder rings and tie ribbons around them. I should be able to post the pics tomorrow!



Your DD has exquisite taste! You must be so PROUD!!!!!!

Now... let's see............... WHAT YOU'VE ALL BEEN WAITING FOR , especially a few of you that have excellent taste in music!

We last left off approaching Las Vegas Nevada! We pull up into the hotel and enter the lobby. OH!!! Beautiful crystal!! And what is all that ringy dingy dingy-ing going on in the back ground??

Wow Vagas was fun! Not a Barry fan but the concert seemed like a last! Love Concerts. Did Barry do any Def Leppard?

I posted this shirt before but I decided to add some ruffle to a pair of jeans. So I cut them off and added the ruffle. They are a little long since I am always afraid to cut anything too short!
]
Great idea. I am going to take a pair of Nik's pants that are too short and turn them into a skirt by adding some ruffles. That is on my to do list

Here's the back. I should have gone with a more simple image... Pluto doesn't look much like Pluto. (it does look better in the photo than in person.)

He looks perfect!

Okay so i think every house should have one of these Nannies,
Here is jayedyn reading her 15 mins to Daizie and she actually looks like she is enjoying it

Okay i am off to SEP teacher conferences...

Don't you love it when the kids read to the dogs? My kids read to our Daisy all the time and Rocky used to be a great listener.

OK, here are pics of my (mostly) clean craftin' area!

You'll have to excuse the mess o' wires - the outlets in this room are in very inconvenient places!

Now if I could just keep it this clean! It seems like whenever I make something, I make a huge old mess!

I am so jealous of people who have craft rooms! George gets a nice office and I get a coffee table for my crafts.! UGH! Nice huh? I am now looking around the office trying to find a spot to add a tale for my crafts...

Megan says this is the proper Megan:

Twirling:

Too many Megans!

It looks great! She is such a cutie!

I don't remember who it was that said they were hoping that their DD could have a birthday cake, but she couldn't because she couldn't get one that was Gluten Free. Well I found a website that sells a Gluten Free cake mix. I thought that all of you that need would enjoy the link to the site. http://www.bobsredmill.com/home.php?cat=109
This company says that they use an ELISA Assay test to determine is a product is gluten free. I don't know if that helps.

I think it was me. Thanks! I have tried Bobs red mill. I have their GF al purpose flour and it is good. Not fond of his brownie mix. I much prefer Gluten Free pantry's Best brownies ever! Gluetnous or GF!

I use some of the products from this manufacturer. I can usually find a whole assortment of items just at the grocery store. I really like their apple spice cake (not GF) but I have a gluten free brownie mix in the pantry to try soon just because.

Try Gluten free pantry;s it is wonderful!

I can't wait to stay at BWV! Maybe in a few yrs! How long have you been a DVC member?



For those of you who have made the Carla C bowling shirt I have a ?
I have just finished printing all 117 pages and now I need more ink for my printer
Ds is measuring a size between a 3/4 and 5/6 (23 1/2) but in reg clothes he is a 7 should i make the 5/6 and just add a few inches to the length or just go to the 7 since that is what he normally wears? Does this shirt run really wide? I don't think he has been a 3/4 since he was 3!

Super cute.... Dallas is a great model.... I think the family will love it.

I have been MIA , but finally I am back from the Spalaughing THANK YOU ALL FOR YOUR CONCERN AND PM'S THAT I GOT....

Before I went to my retreat I finished some of my big give outfits
these are for the girls
tinkerbelle outfit (the green is better looking than in this picture)

I only have to finish Brody's shirts I got tank tops for him , but now I am rethinking it , as I forgot that some boys do not like to wear them (like my son ) so maybe I should get tshirts?

once again thank you all

Linnette

Welcome Back! I hope you are feeling better. The outfits are beautiful. I especially like the way you did the hem on the Tink outfit.

I know DS loves tank tops when it's hot so I'd vote yes on them.

Okay so i think every house should have one of these Nannies,

Oh my goodness!

OK, here are pics of my (mostly) clean craftin' area!

I love your crafting area!

Twirling:

Love the twirl on that circle skirt!

I love those spinny things! I got the white one at Pottery Barn Kids, but Making Memories also has one out now and I think I like it better actually. The black one is called a Clip It Up and I got it at Archiver's. Both were kind of expensive, but I really like them and think they've been worth the money.

One of the DT members at my favorite scrappin' site figured out how to build her own version of the Clip It Up. Here's a link to the directions.

When I made the shirt I used the size that the child normally wears and it fit just fine with just a little bit of room.

 

[Tinka_Belle]

Spomgemomma5-I have to know.....Why did the chicken cross the road? cute pic of your DD by the way.

 

[t-beri]

Karen- WOOHOO!!! Start packin' your fanny pack girl! Can't wait to see ya!

LORI: I am so envious of how much craft space you have!!! If I had a room that big I wouldn't even care if it was messy!! well, maybe a little bit. I hope you had a fantastic birthday party.

AMY- That site is fantastic. I am totally NOT in any way, shape or form a scrapper, I have not ever scrapped one page of my kids pictures but it looks like they have lots of creative ideas, thanks for sharing!

and HOW CUTE is Megan in her HM outfit??? She's growing up Steph. I thought we put a ban on that kind of thing

Hi there, I think I finally found something that I can have my dd5 volunteer in. Love her to pieces, but like many children she does not really appreciate things. My idea is to have her and I, sew blankets or basic stuffed teddy bears and then take them to either a children's hospital or shelter. That being said, I know zero about sewing. My mom may have an old machine or I think I've heard of some type of "sewing" that is more like tape? I truly don't know! What do you guys think, any suggestions?

Thanks! I figured at worst case it is big and he has growing room

Here is the latest purse I made my mom. She LOVEs purses and black and white polka dots with red. I personally am a bit over it!

Wow Vagas was fun! Not a Barry fan but the concert seemed like a last! Love Concerts. Did Barry do any Def Leppard?

No. No Def Leppard, but he did do a little Righteous Brothers (You've lost That Lovin' Feeling and Unchained Melody), Dionne Warwick (What the World Needs Now is Love, Sweet Love) and some ELVIS among other artists. I Loved the 40's era of the music- it was fantabulous!

Karen- WOOHOO!!! Start packin' your fanny pack girl! Can't wait to see ya!

Wait!!! Are you telling me that you'll hang with me even IF I am wearing my fanny pack!?!?!?!? WOW! That's a TRUE FRIEND! I've never felt so loved in all my life!


Minnie2-We've been DVC members for 5 years now- and it is the BEST thing we've ever done with our money! We love it. It allows us to go to Florida 2-3 times a year and just relax. We never feel like we have to be all day everyday in the parks.

I think this is a great idea- it will definetly help your daughter to understand how very blessed she is.

There is a way to make blankets out of fleece without having to sew them. You just cut around the edges and tie the 2 sides together. They're very cute and comfy- that would work for you wouldn't it?? Here are some directions on how to put them together:
