Busy Busy

I went wedding dress shopping with Shanna. She looked good in every dress she tried on, but the one she picked is beautiful (this is not THE one, but still very pretty on)
Saturday, I spent the morning at the church making 950 chicken salad sandwiches for our Celebration Sunday luncheon. I forgot my camera at the actual luncheon, but everything turned out really nice (and the sandwiches were good- I thought I would never eat another chicken salad sandwich again after making so many!)

After making sandwiches we ran to get CC's hair cut.

At sweet 'n sassy you can get glitter in your hair and on your face after your haircut...CC is showing off her new haircut and glittery face.
We went to Davenports with the Anderson's and Burks' before heading to Boo at the Zoo on Saturday. This is sweet John Patrick. He is the cutest little boy.

heading to the zoo with my little lady bugs!

Cooper was Nemo....cutest costume! Can you tell CC is excited

It's hard to get 3 kids to look and smile at the same time..Still a cute pic though

Cooper kept shaking his tail and it was the funniest thing. Wish I caught it on camera, but my battery died.


While in the kitchen I looked out the window and saw this little creature on our deck. EWWW

Conversation with Christian

her Christmas outfit I made!
Bryan said she is not allowed to have another pair of pants with ruffles. I told him you can NEVER have too many ruffle pants!

Her bow doesn't match- I know...this was just her first fitting!
While at a stop light the other day, Christian looked at the car wash down at the gas station and said., " Mom, let's go in the dishwasher"
(If you know me well, I will NOT go in the dishwasher/carwash...EVER....HATE them......)

BIG weekend AND a BIG loss

*****WARNING.....A LOT OF PICTURES**************
Our tent sign!!!
my dad letting it be known that he is a Kentucky fan

The Congleton's and Skipper's back in Auburn!!


great pic of my mom and CC

even my cousin, Katelyn, made it down from Lexington to watch the game. It was fun to see her in Auburn.

CC, Andi, and Alex taking a break from playing!

Sophia and CC! The second we parked the car CC started screaming "Sophia, where are you? I can't see you" I might have to stop telling her that we are going to see Sophia b/c she becomes obsessed, but they are SOOOO cute together

We took Sophia and CC to the tiger walk. It was the first time I've been....fun!

cute pic!

Coach Chizik

We had to get a pic with the biggest Auburn fan around!


notice where our seats were.....the top row was Row 63....our seats were in Row 61

I LOVE AUBURN!!!!!
Sunday, my aunt, March, and I spent the day sewing. She showed me a much easier, faster way to make these cute pants and we made a cute Christmas dress for CC. I'll put pics up once I make the pants to match.
This weekend we headed to Auburn for the game. We got a tent from the tailgate guys- they are BRILLIANT!! They set up everything for you- you just show up and tailgate. They will even cater and you can rent TVs too! It was so much fun to be in Auburn again. It has changed so much. Even though we lost to Kentucky (the first time since 1966- my dad was one happy camper!) and it was SUPER cold, we had the best time. My cousin, Courtney, and aunt March kept Emory all day- thanks so much! She had the best time (once you fed her!!!:):):)

dishes in the sink, clothes in the dryer

BUT........


I have been productive! I made 2 pair of pants for little CC! (actually 3 but the other pair needs a little work). I am so stinkin' excited about them. I tried to get some pictures of CC in them, but not such luck. Oh well.....I'll sneak one when she's not looking.
Now, I need to make matching ones for little Emory and we're set!

This weekend we.....

went to dinner with some great friends. One of which is pregnant!!! And I couldn't be happier for her. Sarah is my best friend from high school and she is 17 weeks pregnant- and looks amazing! I am soooooo sooooo sooooo happy for her!
went over to the Meacham's house to watch the game! War Eagle (even though it was a horrible game and had these 4 adorable cheerleaders)

we watched CC and Sophia change outfits 10 different times and skip their nap (which later came back to bite us in the 'you-know-what')

bounced until we fell asleep!
tried on our Halloween costume for the first time

slept in our Halloween costume (I have the same picture of Christian in her first Halloween costume doing the same thing!)

went to our church fall festival for games and fun
smiled for many pictures!
woke up happy! (always a plus!)

got a balloon flower!

laughed at our daddy taking our picture
went to visit baby Kate and take the Scroggins' dinner.

hope that sweet Ava feels better (has had a fever all weekend- boo!)

Special Snack


Every Friday, Christian's class has a special snack. this week was Christian's week. So, I made these adorable frog cupcakes. I saw them and just knew that all of CC's school's friends would LOVE them. Aren't they so cute! Next week they are learning the letter 'F', so were are getting a head start on the 'F' words- Frogs!
CC is napping now, so she hasn't seen them....she will love them. Now the task will be keeping CC's little fingers out of the icing.
Soccer tonight! She's liking more and more every week. Let's hope we can make it a full practice/game without tears......who knows!

attempt




Okay....so I was blog stalking and looked at Mary Michael's blog. I loved the little shirt she made, and wanted to try it. The only fabric I had was from the bed skirt and vanity in CC's room. So I decided to make this shirt using Mary Michael's directions. SOOOOOOOO easy (from start to finish, it took less than an episode of Two and Half Men I was watching-including clean up and put away!!) The only white shirt I had to use was one with pleats at the top, so it was a little harder than one without pleats. I also drew the 'C' and cut it out without a pattern. So it's not perfect. But it was easy and I plan on making more with different shirts and fabric. If you see Emory and Christian constantly in a shirt with their initials, you will now now why!!!!
