10 on Tuesday the 1 Weekend... 2 Dresses Edition!


Hello everyone! 10 on Tuesday here, the 1 weekend, 2 dresses post - Please excuse the vanity in the photos.

1| I bought the dress to the left here this weekend. It's a deep purple with an awesome silhouette. I fell in love almost immediately, I have no where to wear it too (yet) but, I couldn't pass it up for 50% off. I paid a whopping $3 for this bad boy at Goodwill. Probably my best find to date!

2 | This weekend was my "Get your wild oats sewed" weekend. I don't think I got everything done I wanted but I did get *most* of it done.

3 | Series 7 studying officially began yesterday (and no, that's not an April fools!)

4| The Dress pictured to the right (to the pink) below is my bridesmaid dress for the Blanchette Wedding in May, I'm super excited! I picked it up on Sunday and have only modeled it twice!

5| We're doggy sitting for Seven this week. What a change it is to have another dog around, but he's been really good, quiet, and makes himself at home!

6| This weekend we have next to nothing on the books! But to be honest most weekends from here on out we don't have much booked - See #3 - Social calendar CLEAR!

7| I finally got all of our photos from our vacation uploaded to Shutterfly... now for the scrapbooking!

8| Scrapbooking has been a little way layed - Eric's computer died - now we're sharing, which doesn't work super well. Thanks to Brett for getting our stuff off the hard drive!

9| I'm seriously loving housework recently. I know that sounds next to insane, but it's fun living in a HOUSE!

10 | Eric has some employment with Uncle Gene going on this week, and we are experiencing some growing pains as I adjust to having to cook and clean up after myself. Ugh. Come back househusband! You're missed!

11 | The *BONUS* item... Notice something missing in the photos above? How about 8 inches of my hair! Went in to Supercuts Thursday and asked for a "trim, just below the shoulders" *Gulp* that worked out. But I like it!

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

Merry Craftmas!!

When I was little Mom had one of these to put out every Christmas. I remember her tossing it out having fixed its hot glue after every warm summer in the shed, she wasn't particularly attached to it but I was. Having collected enough baby food jars (finally) I put it together this weekend! Looks just like I remember it and now it is sitting in my closet awaiting its debut next weekend!
