What happened and what made it all better

Wow, wow, wow. I would say I have no words but then you wouldn't know what I'm talking about so I better get some.

First off we planned to stay at a friends house Friday night but then we had a showing and getting a baby ready for an over night outing overwhelmed us. We ended up not going but rescheduling for Sunday night. Because of this we had to cancel with some other friends we haven't seen in a long long time and miss very very much. That was rescheduled for Sunday night after the barbecue we were invited to. So Sat. we put Sarah's crib together because I found her as such in the previous post. Well, Sunday we went to the barbecue early to spend time with other friends we also love dearly who were also the host and hostess of said barbecue. Well almost emmediately after we arrived the new and improved super easy to handle Sarah started screaming and crying bloody murder. Dan and I were beside ourselves with what the heck was wrong, fortunatelly Natalie our friend every so wisely determined she was...um...backed up. So off Dan went to get her some glycerin suppositories to help with that. They did (oh man, did they but I stop there on that) and she was able to eat and go down for a little nap. Well she woke up from her nap at our friends came out to see everyone for a short time only to start her I'm tired and one cry. Frustrated and defeated Dan and I left to go to our friends house who, oh by the way, we had apperantly miscommunicated with and so they didn't know we were coming to there house which made me then feel absolutely awful. They wanted us to come anyway and we ended up having a great time. Sarah slept almost the whole day Monday. We never did get to see our friends we haven't seen in a long long time. Tomorrow as soon as Dan gets home from work we have to vacate so a potential buyer can look at our house. Whew! But you know what, my frustration over Sarah's bad tummy, miscommunication, standing up friends...three times (I am a total people please so you can imagine how distressing this was), and what ever else is completely irrelevant because Sarah laughed, really laughed for the first time on Sunday and that made it all better. I swear that baby girl's laugh is the most beautiful sound in the whole world. She is just incredibly captivating. We are so blessed. :)

DIY Day a bracelet and another Frenchh Memo Board

Image
This week, I have two DIY projects. This is a faux pearl bracelet I made last week for a friend. It is a three strand bracelet. I couldn't really say how I did it though. I can say it has taken me a while to get the nack of jewelery making. One thing I have sufficiently gotten the nack of is this French Memo Baord thing. Here is a magnetic one I made for my fridgerator out of left over scraps from the window from last week . For the month of September, all my DIYs will be giveways. Atleast one will be...well, a guest DIY and a giveway by my SIL over at Read Be Tween the Lines. My sister, Candy and Ladybugs has a picture in her side bar of her latest crosstiching (did I spell that right? My spell check didn't catch it but I don't think thats how it is spelled) project. Its pretty sweet. Check their blogs out on my side bar of my favorite blogs. I've found so many new favorite blogs, I need to update that list. Add that to my to do list. :) Update: Happy To Design...

My second greatest creation!

Image
I did it, I really did it. I've never done something to at this scale of work. It took me many hours but I did it. I am so proud of this DIY project. My first DIY Day! I would be remiss in mentioning that this little beauty is my best DIY and that handsome man there, well, he just melts my heart and fortifies it all at the same time. Here is the plain old dirty six paned window I have been hauling with me every where since I found it a few years ago at a Habitat for Humanity Restore. I had it done up before but that was a novice's attempt at crafty. I knew when I saw the other crafty DIY projects floating around the blogosphere that I would need to get serious in order to play with the big dogs. Good thing all you blogger peeps were also my inspiration. ;) With out further adue . Did I spell that right. I need to learn French. Not really. I'm so doing this on purpose. Ok , here it is..... Three French Memo Boards, one cork board, one pane for a grocery list and ...

Inspiration

So, I am reading this book, $100 Startup by Chris Guillebeau. I'm not planning on starting a business or anything. Its just super inspirational. I like inspirational people. I have this friend, Kathrine who is the best sewing person, sewer or whatever you call it in the whole world. When inspiration strikes, she sews stuff.  I think that is freaking awesome. I have friends who have passions and they just go for it. Love it! My brother, Justin wanted to design toys. He did it. My brother and sister in love, Scott and Laura wanted to start a youth horse ranch. They are doing it. My husband was a sweet little country boy who wanted to go to the Air Force Academy. He did it. See the pattern? I like being inspired. So $100 Startup is a book full of people who find themselves not so much in a career or really intending to make it big but they just start down a path and do what they love. I asked a musician I know where he dreams of playing someday. He said that he just wanted...
