moma's lace necklace.

i've been really into creating fabric flowers and ventured out
and experimented with lace....
i liked the idea, but the lace was too tall and the flowers came out too big...
i used old buttons in the middle, but you can hardly see them.
so.... i gave it to moma girl & she loved it.
doesn't she look fabulous?


just sew it.

i graduated from my sewing class!
i loved every class & went from "intro to varsity"!
our last project was creating a pillow with a zipper and piping.
putting in a zipper is super easy.
my bada$$ machine, andy lou has a special zipper presser foot.
(presser foot is sewing-lady-language for fabric clamper)  
zipper in!
piping done and pillow finished!
learning to sew was really fun- thanks jimbo!

spin for kids

we rocked spin for kids this past sunday!
camp horizon raised over 19 thousand which will cover summer camp 2012.
*slim alone raised $600 which scored him a spin for kids jersey!
the ride was perfect- the sun was shining down on us as we rode
 through adorable downtown madison and throughout the country
roads of rutledge & a sweet water beer awaited us at the finish line!

bravo to luke
our camp brother for dominating the (100 mile) century ride!
 i'm so proud of everyone and so thankful to all of our sponsors! 
you're making the magic of camp possible for more children!
much love, camp hugs & many thanks!
318 & 319 representin'
tara jane, raffy and me.
raffy and b got the cutest couple award.
couldn't have done it without sweet ole' slim by my side.
tandem road bike- what!?! love it.
the sun shining on me and the baby.
 smiling after we got yelled at for riding 3 across.
whatever! it's for the kids! where's your camp spirit?
 best pit stops ever: sport beans, pie, quiche, rice crispy treats....
can't wait to be back at camp twin lakes in july 2012 for camp horizon!
dona nobis pacem.
