Answered prayers

So this is where I have been, I have been in search of a sewing machine since mine broke before Christmas. And on Christmas morning my sweet heart surprised me with a sewing machine, he did great, it just didn't do everything I needed it to. So when we got to Portland I went to every store to find what I needed, and of course all of them were WAY over our price range, so I turned to Craigs list.
So thank you good man, I saw this add for this Baby Lock that is priced at the stores for 1300 on sale for 995, and he had it listed for 300 so I get in contact with him hoping its just a really nice rich guy and not stolen or something. Well as you can see HE WAS A VERY NICE GUY!! Not that a 1300 dollar machine was enough he asked if I needed a serger! So I got it for 100 along with more then 100$ in notions and treads and everything he piled on all for 400 total!! He was so nice, it was his hobby last year now he is moving on to painting.
He gave me the receipts for them he bought them last year, they both look and sew like new!! I am still just soooo excited, this machine can do everything- it treads the needle and even cuts the tread when your done sewing, it has 178 different stitches with 3 alphabet. So this is where I have been. Playing and having so much fun with both my new machines!!
My prayers were answered 10 fold.

Now my friend Emily has to teach me how to use a serger!!

#15 (Bride Wars)

So last night one of my friends called me up and said, "I need a break lets go to the movie!" So we did, it was sooo fun, I needed a break to. We got there and yep we were the ONLY ones in the theater, we kept forgetting and talking all quite then realized we had the whole place to ourselves!! It was fun, it just went by to fast! We went to Bride Wars it was cute.

More project 365 #10,11, and12

Sunday on our way home after the power went out there, two roads to our house where closed due to fallen trees. This is the road that was open so we drove under this tree that was resting on the power line! I was holding my breath going under it, I was waiting for it to fall on us and then shock us to death. So the power was out from like 10am until 3 something am on Monday morning.

Saturday in our driveway this happened. It knocked the internet and power of for a while.

I tried pony tales today on Sadie, She looked kinda silly because her hair grows long in hard places to put pony's in.

#14 (inauguration)

I watched the inauguration with Ethan this morning, and was telling him its a part of history. He wanted to watch Hanny Manny or something but its funny he says the Presidents name so cute. I thought it would be a great picture for today!

A new blog!!

I love to take pictures, if you cant tell. I know I'm not that good but it is something I love, My friend just started a bunch of us on a new blog where every week we have a word and we take a picture of the word like this week was resolution. So if you want to check it out its fun to see everyone's pictures! MISSION 24

Enjoy

Oh, and I don't know if everyone is getting sick of my picture of the day thing, or are wondering why so many of my pictures have a # with it, if so click here!

#9 (kiss,kiss)

On our walk today I captured Ethan giving his sis a sweet kiss, it was perfect! And it wasn't even me telling him to.

#8 (organization)

If any one has seen my sewing area, they know that this is a big step up! My fabrics have been flying everywhere, and so now its looking alittle neater in my little corner.

#7 (Goofy Ethan) and #8 (BLUE EYES)

Ethan has been the biggest goof ball lately, he has said some FUNNY things. Here are a few-
e: Mom, are you like a cow??
t: um, why??
e: well , you just drank that milk and now your going to like feed Sadie, and that's what cows do.
t: laugh, laugh- um yeah I am kinda like a cow I guess...

He says gog, instead of dog, and lesterday instead of yesterday!

Then this one is the best, after Christmas he had some money to buy some more cars with, so
we are at the store, and I am picking out all the cool ones he doesn't have, like the real Lighting Mcqueen one, he has the shinny one and the Dinoco one but I think he would want the Real one... So Erik and I are saying,
K, Ethan you can get 4 new cars, with this money.
He's like ok,
he picks all 3 cars and a lighting that has tar on it, so we are checking out and I say,
Oh this is the one that has tar on it...
Should we get the New lightning? and he says No, Lets just not get it.
I'm like Ethan you get to get 4 cars so do you want another one???
He's like no, I'm going to save my money...
What Ethan, you don't want to get this one, this is The REAL lightning you have all of them but this one and he's the main guy. And 4 cars are better then 3...
He's like no mom, I just want 3! I'm saving my money.

So I said, Okay sounds good, I am just going to buy it for me, so when I play with you I can be this guy. and he's like Moooomm, I am going to be mad at you if you buy that.
I don't need it, I have a blue one at home.
So I didn't buy it.

Today Sadie turned 14 months! Yeah its crazy hu!! She is getting so big, she is talking and talking all the time. She love to sing, wear peoples shoes,
and cuddle up on your shoulder while patting you.
She is healthy and doing great, just really being a mommas girl.
