What have I been up to?!?

I have been very busy over the past week! I have been doing all the last minute things that need to get done before little Amanda arrives (it could be any minute now--I will write an update soon). I have a well stocked pantry now and my house is clean! Also, I participated in a small craft show this weekend (a lady hosted it at her house).

It was kind of a spur of the moment decision. A couple of weeks ago a neighbor asked me if I would like to participate. At the time I just happened to be making some hair bows for the girls and my nieces (yes, Juli and Jess, watch the mail because in a few day I will mail out a package of bows). So I just made a few extras to see if I could sell any. I made a total of 88 bows. I only sold about 20 but it paid for my supplies--which was really my main goal. And I had a lot of fun. The show was last Friday and Saturday. Miriam went with me to be my little model. Here is my display.



P.S.--I go to the doctor Wed. afternoon. So check back here for an update on little Amanda! Also, Betty gets in town Wed. at 6:30 pm!!! The girls and I are counting down the hours.

YEAH I AM GETTING SOME BOWS!! I will send you a link to a friend of a friend who makes bows where I get Kylie's from. Maybe it will give you some ideas for your next batch of bows. My favorite's are the flowers and they are also the easiest. I've been making some on my own as well as some "fly aways"
