new hair...


It was definitely time for a hair change. a trim.

remember back from here that my hair lacks personality. major.

lucky for me my hair person is home.

Thank goodness.

BEFORE

AFTER!!!

The long hair isn't really different, as I am trying to grow it out, but the bangs were cut drastically and good thing.
I like it.

it will take getting used to, and a little more time in the morning to get ready.

but I like it.

Craft Day!


Today was craft day at the Powell Pad.

and it was oh so fun.

Here is the project I told you I was going to do.

It was very easy for my first official sewing project. it took about an hour and a half and 5.18$. I highly recommend this for a first sewing project.


Here is the project I am most proud of and transformed my opinion on my dining room.

my chairs.

My mother in law bought us a set of 4 chairs, they are nice except the fabric did not match our decor.

See?


So I fixed it!!

I spent an hour at the fabric store trying to pick the perfect fabric that both Jason and I would love.

I found it.
The flash makes them look a little weird, and doesnt do them justice, cause now they look great!

Its a blue paisley print and I oh so love it.

next I will be painting our table, cream. :-)

Today!

Today I am going to make one of these...

Because as of now, all of our grocery bags that Jason uses for lunch bags, are stored under our sink.

unorganizedly.

if thats a word.

wish me LUCK!

Random picture post!

Can I be frank?

Of course I can its my blog.

there are 3 pictures that I have taken over the last month or so that I would like to share with you, and encourage you to laugh with me at them.

Picture number 1.


Ok, this picture is for an educational question. In my personal opinion, I feel that these pants are too long to be capris, and too short to be pants. SO WHAT ARE THEY?! am I just crazy to think capris shouldnt go past half calf?


COME FREAKING ON!!! K this is a horrible picture cause I was really trying not to be obvious, but this chick is wearing UNDERWEAR as shorts! WTF?! who does that? I seriously had to keep myself from gagging. wanna know where she was? WAL-MART. Surprised? didn't think so.

Now this one is just funny, no one was wearing these shoes, I simply came across them at foot locker. Jason and I had a contest to find the ugliest pair of shoes in the store, and I won, with these beauties.


MALL TRIP!

So Jason had an errand to run at the mall, invisashield thingy for his phone.

While he did that, I did this.

:-)

Now let me start these pictures off by saying they are all at Forever 21, and I was trying out the hippie retro look to see how I liked it.

let me know what YOU think, please. :-)

The blue shirt was just my shirt that i never took off, FYI. So dont pay attention to it.

oh, and those are my new american eagle artist jeans, that I LOHUHUVE. FYI


This red one i liked, but I kinda wanna try and get away from shirts that I HAVE to wear an undershirt with because of my G's.

Despite the yawn, I actually liked that shirt.

I also really liked this blue one. It has a tie around the waiste that you cant see very well probably cause I didn't have it tight enough.


This one was too long for my taste and looked like a maternity shirt.


I would have loved this one, if the top wasnt such a weird shape.

haha , this one was just plain fun. It was extremely comfortable

lol I didnt mind this blue one. I think it was like 6 bucks so had I actually been in the market for clothes, i would have gotten it.

I did not purchase any clothes this time.

not because I didn't want to, because i just got a new outfit last week. :-(

gotta have some control!

So what did you think of the modern hippieish look?

is it me or no?

8 days later

Camping!

oh it was quite the week.

We camped for 8 days, had lots of fun with Jason's family side, took a few pics, caught some ZZZs, and made sure to get in plenty of laughs.



This is Jasons mom teaching him neck stretching. lol



This is my father in law scared of my axing ability, WHICH I might add, I learned how to do from Titanic. :-)

This was our first morning, we had the camp ground ALL to just me and Jason. It was lovely.
Our own little night together. :-)

We had a good time.

Things I won't miss:

Getting dressed in a tent
Sleeping on an air mattress
pretending bears dont exist
washing my hands with cold water
not washing my hair for days
getting dust in every part of my body
asking,"anyone wanna play shang high?"

Things I WILL miss:

asking," anyone wanna play shang high?"
getting to know more about all my in laws
meals together with his brothers
the one and wonderful nap I took the whole time
cuddling with my husband cause it was so cold
cuddling with my husband cause I was so scared!
saying," I wonder who that is" every time a car pulls in.

:-)

I am WAY glad to be back though. I missed my bed oh so much.

Did you miss me?

bet you didn't know I was gone.
