Project #1/30

I finally got my pictures off of my camera - yeah!! And I have finally realized that I am a horrible photographer! All of those years taking classes are gone, so bear with me.

I had this old metal piece that I think I picked up from one of those crap boxes at some auction.



I spray painted the metal piece black and added some chipboard letters that I bought from a craft store. I ended up hot glueing them on because the self-adhesive wasn't adhering very well.

I'm finally done!

I have been soo busy lately making this......

This is my first finished sewing project! I'm pretty certain I was completely insane for taking this on, especially since I know how upset she would be if I screwed it up!

My Ballerina

I did some snapshots tonight of Kenz so that I can get a free photo canvas made. This is her first year of pointe class and so now she's an "official" ballerina. These are her first pointe shoes that will go into a shadow box next to her first pair of ballet shoes. This is such an exciting experience for both of us.

ps - I have not edited these yet-they'll look so much better afterwards, but I'm just too tired tonight, hopefully I'll get to it tomorrow :)

I lOVE SNOW DAYS!!!

And I'm not even a teacher yet. I am not feeling well today and it's a snow day for Kenz, so I'm trying to blog a little bit, work on school work, finish some small projects, and NAP!! Here's a peak on what it looked like outside since Friday.

Typical for Iowa where I grew up, but not so much for the Kansas City area-but it's sooooo pretty. How could you not love this!! Look at how big those flakes are!

I can't believe it's been 12 years already!!!!

I am finally getting these pictures posted from Kenz's birthday party. I wasn't able to decorate the way that I wanted to-I ran completely out of time! But the girls all had fun and that was the most important part!
