Fun Weekend

We had a busy, exhausting but fun weekend! It seems like we haven't really done much this summer so this weekend we finally got out of town for a couple of days. Thursday Daniel and I went to see Phantom of the Opera in Seattle. We dropped Addie off with a friend and we had a nice afternoon together followed by dinner without a noisy 1 year old! The show was great and I always love an excuse to eat at P.F. Changs!

Friday we headed to Chelan,WA. Every year Daniel's company hosts a golf tournament there. All the employees and their families stay at this hotel right on Lake Chelen. The weather couldn't have been nicer and we all had a great time.

We don't get pictures of just the 2 of us very often...not sure why I look so scared. The Chandelier is behind us but you can't really see it!

Addie was not a fan of the sand. This lasted for about 2 minutes then she was done.

She was much happier on the towel watching the ducks walk by.

Saturday morning when Addie woke up she was burning up with a fever. At first I thought maybe she was sick but she kept putting her finger in her mouth and chewing on it so I figured she was teething. All night she had to be sitting with me with her head on me. It was so sweet, but I'm glad it only lasted a day! Her sad face was breaking my heart. :(

Doing a lot of work...

For those of you who have been so kind and have taken a look at my Creative Signs by Jenna blog, you may have noticed that I haven't been adding a whole lot. Well, I am suddenly more motivated and so it's gotten a face lift, I've added more products and more are on the way! Please keep checking it to see what's been added and let me know what you think! Also, an Etsy shop is in the making...these things just take sooo much time! I'll let you know when it's up and running...

It's coming...

My favorite time of the year!! I love, love, love fall.

Things I love about fall:

1. Changing leaves

2. Cool enough to wear a sweater but not too cold you have to bundle up

3. Sweaters! You can never have too many...

4. Halloween

5. My birthday

6. Back to school shopping. I know I am not in school any more, but I still love to walk down the school supply isles at the store looking at all of the fun stuff. Can't wait until I can take Addie back to school shopping!

7. Thanksgiving...

8. The yummy food you eat on Thanksgiving

9. The idea that Christmas is coming and we get to go home soon and spend it with family

10. You have a great excuse to dress your kids up and take lots of silly pictures. I added some from last year and I fully intend on finding a pumpkin but enough to put her in this year.

11. All of the fun decorations you get to put out for the next 3 months!

Addie's 1 year Pictures

These were taken awhile ago and I couldn't figure out how to get them all on here, so here they are...

Playing with Dad...

I think a child's smile and laughter are 2 of the most infectious and joyous things in this life...

Project #2

Well, I completed my first blanket using my sewing machine. I wanted to make one for Addie, but it turned out pretty cute, I might just have to make one for myself! It wasn't super difficult and I actually didn't have to ask anyone for help, thanks to Corrina on Expert Village.com. I started it when Addie went down for her first nap, worked diligently on it, and finished it in one day! I think she likes it...

You can actually click on these pictures and make them bigger! :)
