to and fro


My brain is in a total state of overload. Tell me you have been there before :) I have been having so much fun this summer and keeping myself busy that I can't keep up. So, I have decided to dedicate this week to fill you guys in on what's been happening over here.

I have taken way too many pictures of all the events (what's new, right), so I will have to post them on Flickr.com for you to view. You can click the Flickr link on my sidebar to see all the pictures. WARNING...you may find yourself laughing at a few candid shots! I'll try to have them all uploaded today (fingers crossed).

OK, so let me back up. Hmmmmm, where do I begin? Well, I guess you all saw the picture that I posted in my last post. Lets start there, that was my crazy husband and my Dad taking my girls out for a spin. They had a great time, I even got in with Tommy behind the wheel. How scary is that!!!


Let's see...oh, you're gonna love this. I had a girls night out with my cousin Kimberly (love ya girl!). She invited me to explore my creative side with her at a place called Wired and Fired. Let me just tell you, it totally ROCKED!!! We saw tons of cool things on our adventure shopping at side street shops, eating (indulging) Ben & Jerry's ice cream and enjoying a quiet meal at an upscale Thai restaurant. I had a marvelous time and can't wait to do it again!!



I have also been able to catch up on a few sewing projects lately. One has been Modkid's Kyoko shirt/dress pattern. It turned out great. I can't decide it I will post it in my Etsy shop or keep it for Bryar. It's so stinkin' cute! I also made a couple more apron dresses and I am working on a tutu for a friend of mine (Hi Jessica!). Her daughter is as prissy as they come (I love that about little girls) so I am sure she will be all smiles when her mommy gives her a pink tutu to priss around in - LOL I also have made some baby shower gifts and I even made me a skirt...I know, pretty crazy huh!





OK, you're probable getting bored with reading this by now but I warned you there was way too much going on. I'll be quick with the rest (wink). Here goes...we went to Stone Mountain (that was a blast in more than one way), we went to Atlantic Station for an outdoor market, we have a gourd vine growing and taking over the yard, we had a family night enjoying music on the square and we've celebrated graduations and had a wonderful Father's Day weekend. My kids are off to camp this week. Bryar's first day of camp will be Tuesady - wish us both luck!

So, there you have it and now you know why this week will be dedicated to playing catch up. I love summer fun and I love my family. I hope you all are getting a chance to have some family fun enjoying the summer.

Looks like so much fun Heather!!! What a fun cousin you have to hang out with, too! Ben and Jerry's would be my preference as well!
