sorry, forgot to turn on the flash.  this was my late night snack last night.  some cheeseburger stax with a woodchuck granny smith hard cider.  i think that angry orchard is my fave hard cider so far.  they are naturally gf so i can have them.  :o)


day 226: thurs 8/16
finished this right after midnight.  it's a newborn beanie with ear flaps & braided ties.  underneath the hat is a lovey.  i made them both out of bamboo spun, that stuff is awesomely soft!!!  best stuff to make hats & blankets out of!

baby car is almost drivable now.  her got a new set of eyes!  :o)  next week is license week!!!  YIKES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

homemade beenie weenies or as hopp calls them binna winnas.  :o)  we had them for dinner last night at my MIL's & then i had the stuff to make my own for lunch today.  i used bush's baked beans (vegetarian style) & nathan's hotdogs.  it was soooo good.  super easy meal & the kiddos (and the mommas) love it!!!  nathan's are THE BEST HOT DOGS!!!  if you have not bought them because they are a little pricey you are missing out!  they are well worth the price.  :o)

look how pretty this sweet face is!!!


day 227: fri 8/17

silly faces of hopp!  she is such a nut.  this is just a few of the pics i took while trying to get 1 or 2 good smiling faces.  what a ham!
omg!  this one cracked me up!


day 228: sat 8/18

we had a garage sale for q's jump rope team.  they are the neon twisters & an actual usa jump rope team.  we are trying to raise all the money to send everyone to long beach cali!  how fun will that be & since she is so young, guess what that means!!!  i get to go! i get to go! i get to go!!!!  :o)  this pic is just a few of the items we were selling.

i tried luring the ladies on my fb page saying these items were begging for pinterest projects...  it didn't work because we still had them at the end of the garage sale.  i would have taken the lamp table thing home but i would have been sleeping outside!  jason specifically said not to bring any crap in the house.  ;)
well that's it for the week.  i hope you all had a great week & i will see you maybe tomorrow with a wip.  :o)  oh & btw!  they ended up making over $700 for their trip!!!!  isn't that awesome!!!

garage sale oopsie!

before jess left for dallas we went garage saleing or as we call it 'going crazy'.  long story short, when q was about 3 we went A LOT & she asked me where we were going, not knowing where we were at in town.  i gave her the ol' 'we're going crazy' line our moms always used to tell us when we asked where we were going at that age.  well i didn't think anything of it & we passed a small garage sale & q said, 'mom, there's a "crazy"'.  jess & i looked at each other & died laughing!  it was the cutest thing ever!  so every since then we call it going crazy.  :o)

well on this particular trip, it was just hopp & jess & i, as we were looking around at this church rummage sale, jess found a puzzle she wanted & i told hopp she could have a book so after deciding on a book i just grabbed it & i paid & we went about our business.  this is what i saw, cute little chicks...


cute little chicks!

well, because i didn't pay attention to what the book actually said, i didn't realize what the book was actually about.  so when hopp was looking at the pics in the back she dropped the book & asked for one of us to get it so jess reached down to get it & started looking at the book.  she said, um mom did you see this?  i was driving & of course couldn't look at it so i told her to tell me what the problem was.  she started laughing & said mom this book is about pregnancy.  i said WHAT???  not that it's a big deal but i thought it was a stupid cute little chick book!  oh geez, i'm so unobservant!  what an oopsie i did!  so we laughed about it & when we stopped at sonic for a drink & a snack before coming home i looked at it a little bit.  it's really cute & funny & the pics are adorable!  one of the lines says "Good Night Moon, Hello Martini", with the mom chick leaving the baby to sleep in the crib.


this is what's on the cover

so i'm not for sure what to do with the book.  i will probably give it to one of my pregger friends.  :o)

oh & btw, when we got home i noticed the puzzle was a beer puzzle, it has all kinds of different beer brands on it, it was brand new with the plastic on it.  i'm wondering what else non-traditional church stuff was there too.  ;)  crazy finds at a church rummage sale, beer puzzle & a chicken pregnancy book, do you see the baby chicken between the mom chick's legs?  how did i miss that?!?
