Sew Along!

I am excited to have joined to do a sew along at http://www.onepearlbutton.com/. Making a Marie skirt.

I got my supplies today and it starts tomorrow.

My optimistic side:

this will be a great experience
making a skirt for around $12.00
making my own clothes
trying something new

My pessimistic side:

I am new to sewing
I am new to sewing
oh did I mention:
I am new to sewing

All in all I am super excited. We will see how this goes. I will be sharing along the way on how this goes.

Weekend Recap

Weekend Recap

Friday:
Cody planned a date night. We went to eat and to see Dear John. It was such a great movie. If I had not been in a movie theater I would have been crying. Go see it if you have not.

Saturday:

I got to sleep in. I hardly ever sleep that late, so I figure I must have need the sleep or my body would not have let me sleep that long.

Then I went for a little retail therapy.

I got a new comforter set.

I also got a new pair of JS shoes. Shoes are my thing.

Dalton Room-in-a-Bag

Sunday:

We went to church. A wonderful lesson was taught on Gods Amazing Grace. Such a wonderful lesson and so much to think about.
Then went to my aunts baby shower. This is baby # 4 for her but the 1st girl.

Now home to watch the Super Bowl. I just watch for the commercials.
Hope everyone had a great weekend, and has a wonderful week.

Favorite Beauty Products




.

Hair: This is by far the best product that I use daily for my super curly hair. Paul Mitchell Round Trip. I have went though some hair product but this is what works best for me. I also could not live without my trusty blow dryer.

Face: I have the complete line of the L'Oreal Bare Naturale gentle mineral makeup. I love how light it is on my face. I don't feel like I have any makeup on. It's so quick to apply.

L'Oreal Bare Naturale Mineral Foundation, Cocoa

I also could not live without Pond's Replenishing Moisturizer Lotion

Sephora is a wonderful place to buy all kinds of beauty products.
I love their selection of makeup tools.

Hope everyone has a safe and wonderful weekend.
I am off for my surprise date night with the hubby.
