(insert witty title here)



After having spent almost 5 days out of town for a conference i feel like i should blog about it, but i don't really feel like it, so i'm not going to. The only part about the conference that I will include is that jessby is fabulous, and i love my parents. The three of them added a little bit of something special to my 21st birthday (which occured while at said conference). My parents called me early in the morning to sing happy birthday to me together on speakerphone. I love that they do that for my birthday every year. Then when I got out of the shower Jessby had placed a card under my pillow on the bed for me to find. It was really cute, and even cuter than the card itself was the fact that he bought the card back around new year's and has been waiting months to give it to me. I had a delicious bagel sandwhich for breakfast and upon returning to the hotel after bagels, I recieved a birthday balloon, a big red velvet heart shaped box full of chocolates, and a ceramic (rubberduckie look alike) flowerpot full of daffodil bulbs. Jessby had them sent to me at the hotel. It made my day. I LOVE daffodils. So that is the run down on my 21st. (the highlights of it atleast) and now i'm looking forward to belated birthday dinner with (some) of my nearest and dearest this weekend. I wish all of my sisters could be there too, but its just not possible.

And then......

I made this!!!
This shirt was a pain to make. I had to use RIT dye and could only make a few colors at a time and was having trouble with the dye seperating out before i had a chance to use it.... But i'm pleased with the end result.

SNOW DAY!

Ok so this snow day actually happened a few weeks ago, but I still think its pretty exciting news. I got a text alert from CNU letting me know that classes were cancelled around 3 am. Of course I had to jump out of bed to go see the snow. Snow doesnt last more than a few hours in Newport News so I had to see it before it all melted. I went back to bed and slept in untill 11 it was fabulous. And i spent the rest of my day reading in bed with jessby and cooking delicious things.

Jessby made pancakes.


And i made Blueberry muffins and delicious noodle casserole

It was a fabulous day. This post is way after the fact... but i've been meaning to post about it forever....

Sweet Charty

Between Christmas break and spring break I put in over 56 hours in the costume shop, working on Sweet Charity. Over the next week I'm going to post pictures of what I worked on. With out further adu, here is the first piece I made.

Its not the most impressive thing, but I'm posting these in the order that I made them.
