Living Room

The living room is looking pretty good... just need some curtains!

More of Gordon...

Our dog is so stinking cute.  :)  I had my camera out doing some photo work, and I couldn't resist snapping of few of Gordon.

This is his new collar... Joe got it for him :)

On the couch :)

Loved the shadows in the living room yesterday

Hello :)

It's Coming Along...

Today was a crazy weather day here in Frederick!  It was cold, then warm, then really hot and sunny, then it rained sideways, got sunny again, rained while it was sunny, then got chilly when the sun went down- weird!

But while the weather did its thing, I was working hard on my booth.  I painted the PVC piping with a special spray paint for plastic (you don't have to prime!), finished my wire frames and cut out the photos for it, made my table cloth (cut and hemmed it), and started picking where everything is going to go on my table.  

Joe has been incredibly helpful and supportive- in fact, our dining room table is my "practice" table with all my albums and stuff on it. :)  I love him!

I can't wait for my sign to get here this coming week- it'll go right between the two wire frames.

The Beginning of a Booth

I have been super sick with some sort of stomach thing for the past 36 hours, but it seems to have subsided, and I couldn't be happier- I was so stinkin' sick!

I have a small bridal show next Saturday and I am starting to get my booth together.  You've seen the lip balms, the sign, and now here's my background!  Joe built it for me :)  He did good.  I need to do a bit of work on it, but I am verrrry happy with it.

So much more to do!  But I've ordered all my paper products, now I just gotta pull it all together!

Sign! :)

So I don't have it yet, but the woman who made my sign sent me these photos- WOW!  I love it!  I think I'm going to have her make a sign for our wedding too! :)  I am excited to get it next week. :)

Lip Balms!

So I have a very small bridal show coming up and I wanted to do something cute, so I got these adorable lip balms. The flavor? Peppermint! They are tasty :)

I will be attaching these to some 5x5 cards that I'm designing right now... I think I'll get them printed on linen paper and I'll round the corners. I am excited! It'll be a lot of work, but hopefully it will be worth it.

A sign I'm having made is also coming this week, and I am pumped- woo! :)

My Boys!

Poor Joe is still working this crazy 6pm to 6am shift (plus he has to work out *after* his shift- like, running six miles!) and he's being such a trooper about it.  He tries to help me in the morning after only a few hours of sleep... I have no idea how he's still standing after getting two hours of sleep the fast three nights! 

Understandably, around 1pm, Joe collapses on the couch for an hour or two before he has to get ready for work again.  Little Gordon has been his faithful companion.  Yesterday the two fo them were so cute that I couldn't resist taking a few photos.  I love these two boys so much!

Gordon loves to snuggle under the covers

soooo cute.  I *love* this photo!
