New Project!

I have been having so much fun making all these baby blankets! I just finished the one for my friend Krystal who is having a baby boy this December. Jared's little sister Kelsea saw me working on the blanket and said that she wanted one too. So for Christmas I am making Kelsea a blanket. However, her's is going to of course be bigger than the baby blankets that I have made. I just purchased the fabric this weekend and can't wait to get started!!

For my new project I have decided that I am going to start cross stitching more. My little sister's bedroom and bathroom are decorated with a beach theme. So, I came across this cute picture that I am going to cross stitch for her for Christmas. It's small but its a lot harder than other cross stitch projects that I have done before. I will post a finished picture when I am all done.

Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs

Saturday night Jared and I went to the movies and saw

Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs....

We both wanted to see it but weren't sure it would be worth seeing it in 3D or even spending the money to see it. Let me just say that this was the best kids movie that I have seen in a long time! We both laughed so hard!!! It was difinatly work seeing in the 3D, for some reason the movies look better even if things aren't popping out at you.
The Jello House!!!

I would totally love waking up to ice cream being everywhere like snow.

Raining hamburgers... Great!

Ducks Game!

Last Thursday night we went to the Ducks game with Mike and Katie. It was so much fun!!! We got the tickets from my company and the seats were about 7 rows away from the ice! I have never sat that close before. You could smell the sweat... and it didn't smell good. Sadly our Ducks lost agains the Canucks. But, there was a lot of entertainment with some pretty good fights. Here are some pictures from our evening, thanks to Katie for bringing her camera. (I totally forgot mine.)

Jared and I at the game.

Baby Blanket #2

This is the baby blanket that I made for my friend Amanda's sweet little baby, Remi Jean.

Little Blue Guys

Who else loves the Smurfs????

Baby Blanket #1

I decided to try my hand at sewing baby blankets since there are so many people having babies. Here is baby blanket #1. This is for Jared's cousin Mary Ann. She has two adorable little boys, Max and Ian, and she is having her first little girl this October. This blanket I decided to make all pink!
I am now in the process of making two more blankets, one for my friend Amanda and the other is for a friend at work, Krystal.

Birthday Celebrations

So this month has been a busy one. We celebrated three birthdays for what seemed like the whole month of August. First my dad's birthday was on the 12th and he turned 49 years old. Second Jared's birthday was on the 16th and he turned 24 years old. Last my brother's birthday was on the 20th and he turned 21 years old.

We celebrated Jared's birthday first with his family on his birthday. We also stopped by Disneyland so Jared could pick up his birthday gift card. We had a wonderful dinner at his parents house and for desert we had the birthday cake that I made him.

Happy Birthday Hunny!!!!

Saturday we had a family BBQ at my grandparents house. Jared and Chloe went swimming for a while during the day. After they swam we all played this fun game called 'Farkle'. Of course my mom won...I think its because she cheats. LOL.

Here is all of us playing 'Farkle' in the backyard.

This was the yummy ice cream birthday cake we had... It was so yummy!!!

Happy Birthday Daddy!!!

Happy Birthday Jared!!!

Happy Birthday Blake!!!

The next day (Sunday) we went to my other grandparents for dinner and birthday celebrating. We did what we always do there... we ate A LOTand talked. We watched a DVD of all the pictures from our parents cruise to Alaska. For desert we didn't have a traditional birthday cake, we had ice cream pie and cup cakes. They were so yummy!!
