Blankets for Sale

I have been making a lot of blankets. So, I decided to make a page on Etsy.com and start selling them. I am working on my first one right now. But, a friend from work asked me to make one for a friend. This is what I came up with.

Baby Carter McGregor

My cousin Kayla had a beautiful baby boy, Carter Kent McGregor. He was born on January 23, 2011. Of course I made him a blanket.

Christmas Presents

For Christmas I decided to make my brother and sister-in-law blankets. Rachel asked for a purple and green blanket with some padding to make the blanket thicker. I had never done that before, but it wasn't too bad. I am really happy with the way it turned out. Blake asked for a green and brown blanket that was really soft. So, to make his blanket softer I used minky fabric. They both loved them!



San Diego Vacation

Jared and I decided to take a little vacation. We drove down to Temecula for a friends wedding reception and decided to stay the night in San Diego and then go to the Wild Animal Park. We stayed and this nice Double Tree Hotel and had yummy breakfast in bed (something I don't get to do). After breakfast we went to the Wild Animal Park. It was so much fun to see the animals. We even went on the Journey to Africa tour.

Our nice hotel room.
Jared wanted to be a little kid and jump on the bed.

I had never fed one of these. It felt cool but kinda freaked me out.

Jared was a pro at feeding them.


The gorilla was just sitting there posing for everyone.


Its sad but our tour guide told us that there are only 7 of these rino's left in the world.

We took the Journey into Africa tour.


This baby leopard was born mid November. So cute!!

We were about to leave and turned around and saw this coming down the walkway.
