under my umbrella-ella-ella-ey.

Sooooo, I have been making more stuff, and ya'll still don't comment..sniff sniff, but i can live with that! So, I will continue to post 'making stuff' and 'fixing clothes' until ya'll comment/suggest otherwise. onward:

eek. before. and its saying something when it looks good like THIS. in real life, this thing is..um...strange.

so i began chopping off about 2 inches of length.

but the raw edges just won't do, so hemming it is.

and then hemmed. which color of thread did i use??? A, B, or C?

ANSWER: C

ooh, and did i mention that i love this polyester blend fabric? 

anywho, this is the NEW hemmed skirt, and it looked well, boring so i decided to do something to 'spice it up'

SO embroidery it is! I went with something cute, which you will find out soon.

hmm...what COULD it be?

AN UMBRELLA!!!! YAY! Prefect for today, which was rainy and made my hair all frizzy and fuzzy..gross, well i'm getting off track, so back to the main event, the AFTER PHOTO!!

Yay for short(er) skirt!! and although i wasnt pleased how the umbrella wasnt very visible, i was pleased with the outcome, and it looks even better tucked in, but my black shirt was visible through the light poly-blend fabri...ok, now i'm way off topic. :)

BONUS: 

Other Things I've recently made!!

this cute peacock-inspired hairclip, which i will show you how to use in a latter update.

and leg warmers made from a sweater!! I love these, now i can't wait till the seaon to wear them. I need ya'lls help, when would be the proper time to start wearing these bad boys?? and  with what??

Thoughts, Please, Please.

Red Rover Red Rover :o)

SOOOO....2day, Bradley and Livs came down 2 our house and we rode bikes, talked, TRIED 2 play baseball, and ended up playing Red Rover. Which turned out HILARIOUS!!!!! Me and Bradley were on a team 4 the first time, LIvs and Anna on the other. Livs came over and we all tumbled!!! It was funny. Anna was standing there in astonishment as we were laughing and toppling over eachother. Though I feel like I have a Broken toe, and a have a HUGGGGEEEE scrap my pinky toe and my leg, it was fun and I was glad 2 have ALL of us neighborhood friends together again. :)
Anyways, on 2 the boring stuff (Yes, THIS is the boring part ;) ) I am going 2 the dentist 2morrow and I will TRY 2 take a pic of my ridiculously large swollen numb cheek :) I am getting a tooth filled. So yah!! leaving at 7:30 with Nate. IN THE MORNING!!!!!!!!! YIKES!!!!!!!! Pray I can't feel that horrible feeling of him drilling through my teeth :) So, yah..bi! Hope u enjoyed the birthday pix. More 2 come of the present unwrapping and the eating of the cake.

Have fun and Eat Cake

Well, it happened. Oscar had his First birthday. He is officially no longer a, how do you say month baby. He is now a year old. The party was great. The company was great. The cake was great :) Here's the pictures.



Leon hiding behind a tree. He was hiding from a dog. I kinda wanted a cute picture of it and wa-la, this is what came from the idea: He's such a good poser :)
Awww...this was on the Cake table inside. I Thought it made a good picture.
BIRTHDAY BOY!!! I ♥ ♥ him!!!
Lunch. BBQ. Sandy-witches :)

The Birthday Cake. twas amazing!
The Birthday Setup. It was all about dots. I thought it was cute how she was able to find so many coordinating birthday supplies. :)



AND I put in this picture of Joe Jonas for good measure.

The Beauty Trains Behold

I took this picture at Canyon's Birthday. I guess I was kind of excited about the way it turned out. :)

That is the back of the train leaving, not the front coming (Although that might have made a better picture :P)

So I tested, and played around with it, and came up with this:

So, which do you like better? Tell me quick.... please :)

Is going to wal-mart to take care of Oscar while Summer does something over there.

"And A Word's, not a word, till you give it away."

So, we went to Sugar Hollow Park yesterday with Leon, Aaron, Israel, Canyon, Jonathan, Emily, Oscar, Summer, and Ben. twas fun (x-cept Beth and Silas weren't there, trying to get some rest after the big 2 yr old party I s'posse :) ) And I think I pulled a muscle while playing on the playground with Leon and the rest of the little ones. So now, my left leg is propped up on a trashcan underneath the computer desk wrapped in a bandage, awaiting recovery :)
So, yeah, that's pretty much the news.
And also ALL day yesterday and this morning (And continuing) I have been cleaning my room super good, for fall and school :( Although, I haven't changed over my summer clothing for my winter/fall clothing considering we have a few more weeks of summer. lol...
And tonight, we are going to the library and I def. want to check out Hotel For Dogs Book by Lois Duncan, and maybe some other fun things, got any suggestions?? :)
And I think that about wraps it all up, yup, my boring day yesterday and today in a nutshell :)
And Sorry all readers that I'm so boring :)
