A lot of time has passed, I understand....some things I felt that I really didn't want to share when the times came. Let me just sum it up, about 3 weeks after my brother got home my grandma passed away. She was the sweetest person you could ever meet and she gave us a ton of memories we'll NEVER forget. I just loved her so much. It was hard at first but things are now better.
Then a plus side came...my birthday! It was a blast because I got a ton of fabric, one print which had Elvis Presley! (love him to death) and another one from the collection that Moda Bakeshop has out called "Little Rascals" which I have been dying to have.
Now it's the 24th of July and we have had a fun day. Dad took us out to Breakfast at "Ruth's Diner" and then we went to Rockport Reservoir. We took up 4 canoes and we played in the water and fished. Steven invited a date to come with us and it was fun tipping the canoes. We had planned on bringing a lunch to eat up there but our plans quickly changed. Thunder rolled in and the wind was blowing pretty hard. It started to rain VERY hard. So we got in our canoes and started to paddle back to our spot, but the waves and the wind were so strong that it acctually knocked my little sister and I, with the canoe in the water. One small problem...actually 2. #1 my sister wasn't wearing her boat shoes and they sunk in the water....Go Figure...water shoes that sink!...#2 we saw lighting. Which made the situation 100x scarier. Thankfully we made it back safely or I wouldn't be here to tell the tale.
Later on this evening our neighbor invited us to her house for our 3rd annual Car Port Party. She made us S'mores and we watched fireworks go off in her driveway. It was fun. It's something we'll definatly be doing again next year.
As we were sitting in her driveway my Mom and I both agree that since we were blog searching today and just looking at other people's sewing projects, it just made us want to sew some of our own projects, so that's probably what I'll be doing tomorrow.
