Disboutiquers Part 7 Kids Disney Boutique / Customs Clothes psst..we sew

Ok...I'm lost! But in my trying to read the last few pages I noticed that Tifani actually read the Wicked book and LOVED it...REALLY???? I hated that book. When you have a moment, can you tell me how you got through it? I forced myself to read it because I love the musical so much but I was lost for most of it (clearly a theme for me lately ) I'm scared to try the other books.

I read the book because I have hopes of seeing the musical one day. I couldn't stop reading it, but it was because I wanted to know what happened next, when it was going to get good, etc. It was just meh for me. I can't wait to see the musical! Next time I make it to NYC, you will have to make a trip down and see it with me!

Oh I absolutely LOVED the story in WICKED!!! I have not seen or heard the musical. I am a bit of an obsessive reader. I enjoyed it very much. But I like details. I am always interested in what happens before and after a story and it was kind of before AND after the Wizard of Oz which is one of my favorite stories of all time. I loved the books. It was also easy reading. So often I am reading a book that is more challenging b/c I get so little reading time that I don't want to spend it reading something that makes me think. I enjoyed reading a book I could finish in a day or 2. And again I totally LOVED the story line. My MIL's BFF just told her she liked it too. I mean, we can't be the only ones....it made it to Broadway

Ok you two...you are clearly more intelligent than me I thought the book was way too wordy! Maybe the problem is that I knew the story before I read the book so i didn't care what happened next...I knew what happened next! Maybe I will try one of the other ones

Are there other DisBoutique readers???? Maybe we should start book reviews over on the Community Boards. I read a lot and love suggestions.

And Stacy I will definately meet you for Wicked or any other show for that matter. I'm only 3 1/2 hours by car/ 25 minutes by plane (yes, I'm that lazy!) to NYC and I love seeing shows! They are offering a deal thru Disney Visa right now to see Little Mermaid, Lion King, and Mary Poppins for really cheap (yes, you see all 3). I was thinking about going and just doing it. DH actually said he would go with me. SHOCKING! But then I remembered that I'm supposed to be saving money for the DISmeet in Feb!

Teresa-Jenna was a very beautiful baby. Atleast I think she was. She looked just like her daddy. Who she finally got to meet tonight. She was very happy to meet him.

I took Jenna out to dinner and on the way back the car ran out of gas. Yes I know I should have put gas in it, but I've been busy. Anyways DH couldn't get away from work to help me and her daddy is the only other person in town that I know with a car. He called me earlier tonight and asked to see her and he told me that if I ever needed help I could call him. Well I took him up on the offer.

I really feel stupid for running out of gas.

I've been looking for you some Eeyore fabric, but haven't seen it anywhere lately. If I find it, how much do you want?

Enough to make a skirt, 1 to 2 yards but at this point I will take anything. The only thing I found online is a wholesale retailer so I couldn't order it.

I know that this is going to sound bad, but I'm afraid of the bus kids. I'm afraid that if I let Jenna ride the bus than she will get hurt by one of the kids. I know I'm paranoid.

We are lucky, we have a kid with special needs on our bus so we have a driver and an aide. Even though she is attending to her kid, it's nice to know that she's there. She helped Megan pull out her tooth when she was freaking out about it dangling!

Thanks I know...I keep telling my family members..."there are more out there like me!!" ... It's so cool! Thanks for the compliments...I am going to shorten the patchwork skirt, though...i'll post another pic when it's done. I am working on a "petal skirt" with some xmas disney fabric...we'll see how it goes.

There are many more like you! I have been wanting to try a petal skirt: good luck with it!

I think I had other quotes but lost them.

Heather! those pictures of your kids are gorgeous! When I was looking at them earlier Megan walked by and said, "SAWYER!" and then "TESSA!" She thought the cutest one was Sawyer helping with his clubhouse. I get you about the squinting. Jacob is worse than Megan, so I think blue eyes are a lot more sensitive to the sun.

I use to do eventing and my mother would pay big bucks to the professional photographer to have all the pictures of me and my horse going over a jump with my tongue out! She kept telling me I was going to bite it off but I honestly don't know when I was doing it.

Eeyore Fabric Alert If anyone has access to Eeyore fabric (just him, no Pooh and friends), please please please pm me. I cannot find it anywhere. I went to my 4th walmart today and did not have any luck. They do have Hawaiian shirt Sponge Bob fabric that we had to get for Jacob. Thanks!

Riley and I saw Mary Poppins in June and we both loved it! I would love to take Drew on a trip and see Little Mermaid and Mary Poppins again! Maybe someday...... I'm supposed to be saving for our January/Drew's 7th birthday trip.

Okay, a little off topic, but we WERE on our way to Disneyland. This is for you Teresa! A while back, I don't remember what we were talking about, (maybe families that act goofy in pictures?) but I remember telling a story of my family running out of gas in the desert outside of Vegas and my dad had to hitchhike to Vegas for gas and while we waited we took pictures of us pretending we were dying of thirst. Teresa said she wanted to see the pictures Now that I think of it, the whole conversation may have been over on her TR. I am still trying to clean my craft room (hmmm, wonder why it is taking so long? ) and I found (and scanned) these:

That is my big sister with the long red hair, I'm behind her with the pigtails (and bows of course) on the right is my silly mommy and behind her is my little sister. My brother took the picture, making sure the car was not in the background for authenticity.

Here is my dad filling the tank upon his return. I'm the babe with the short shorts (terrycloth) and the skinnyish (compared to now) legs. That is my cousin Kent in the red tank top with the comb in his back pocket. I learned to drive in that boat--I mean station wagon.

and not to leave my brother out (he must be riding for help--in his socks? )

Did you ever get that fabric???

Ok, I think I voted for you. Do you just click the thumbs up, or is there more to it? That seemed to easy.

And, now that we are all voting for you, you can NOT just go and disapear again!

I loved your video, you are so cute!!!

Thanks for voting! You do just push the thumbs up to vote. You can vote once per youtube account per day. I did get that fabric! Let me post the first picture of her at WDW in one of her outfits. Actually this pic is at Disney's Vero Beach Resort.

I LOVE this! Do you think I could pull it off and actually wear that and NOT look dorky? I just LOVE it! GREAT JOB!

And if so, does anyone have some?? I have tons of fabric that I can trade or something else!!

Wow..you ladies are really talented. I can't sew a button on to save my life! It's sad but true. I love the little outfits and tops..they are so darn cute! I've made a few hairbows but those are only beautiful in my 3 yr olds eyes!

Well I am still alive I have just been painting. I am so sick of seeing dots to say the least. But here is what I have been doing. All the dots have the first coat so I had to share! I am only doing them on two walls and they will have a "ribbon" of paint under them that waves and has the 5 little monkies poem written on it. Two of my walls are just the light blue paint and I think other than the ribbon with the words that will go all around the room they are probably going to stay that way. I still have to do a second coat on about half the dots and then go back and clean up the lines, but at least you can get an idea of it now.

Am so ready to move on from painting to sewing!!!! lol

This is the print it was supposed to copy. The fabric is actually much brighter than the picture shows.

Trying to lurk but things have been pretty busy between that and sick people. Hope to see you guys again in a few weeks and be back to normal. Oh and on a sad note we are canceling our Disney trip in Dec. I do think it is for the best though I really want to focus on fostering right now and I would be worried we were missing "the one" the whole time we were gone so it would not be worth it.

OK..So I have decided to try a Pre-Trip Report...just wanted you all to know, since I spend most of my DIS time at this post

Hope you enjoy it...it's my first one and a work in progress.

Oh wow! How did it go??? Tell us more about it if you don't mind!

I will pick it up if I find any!

JEANNE!!! These are great!!! Thank you for posting these!!! You guys are too funny!

Your brother is so cute!

I had shorts like those, (when I was in 6th grade) but mine had tan on them. They had a little tank top to match. I thought I was so cool in those shorts! Until, I was walking around on some stilts with them on at a family reunion, and my Mom told me that they had rode up my behind, and she told me she was "SO embarassed". I was absolutely mortified!

I'm glad it made it to you!!!

I love the pictures!!! That top is adorable!!!!

And if so, does anyone have some?? I have tons of fabric that I can trade or something else!!

I think it would be cute Jessica!

Well my baby girl is starting Pre-k tomorrow. I can't believe it! I'll get some pictures tomorrow, but my mom finished her nap mat today. Thought I would share, it turned out really cute.

Now back to bed, I haven't been feeling good today. Really hard to be down with 3 kiddos.

 

[GoofyG]

Didn't know my toes made an apperience! At least they were painted!
