Crafts...

Today I went to put some items at our booth in the Craftique Mall. I haven't been there in awhile and knew we had sold some things but realized it was almost empty.

After putting some aprons and a cute tote bag for sale it's looking better.

Here's the tote bag, it says christian chick. I thought it was cute! :)

Happy Birthday Bud!

Happy Fourth Of July!!!


We had a smoking good time this year!


For the fourth of July I had the whole weekend off! woo-hoo!
We had lots of fun at bbq parties and shooting off fireworks at our house.

Dave's Aunt Naomi had a BBQ at Paton Park in Southwest Detroit for the family. It was a beautiful day and fun to spend time outside with the family.


David and Angel cooked us some meat:

We were stuffed:

The Fejioo Family had a great day, ate lots of food, and enjoyed the parade, then off to the next party!

We went to the fireworks on sunday to end off the festival.

For the long weekend we also went to the Farmers Market in Depot Town ,Ypsilanti. They were having a Camero Fest car show, but we skipped it to check out the fish in Frog Island park. :) We also went to a few antique stores, the flea market and dinner and a movie with some friends!

All in all a Great Long Weekend!

Hope you had a great Fourth of July as well!

Father's Day.....

Beauty Tips
Written by Sam Levinson

FOR ATTRACTIVE LIPS
Speak words of kindness

FOR LOVELY EYES
Seek out the good in people

FOR A SLIM FIGURE
Share your food with the hungry

FOR BEAUTIFUL HAIR
Let a child run his or her fingers through it once a day

FOR POISE
Walk with the knowledge that you will never walk alone

People, even more than things, need to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed and redeemed; never throw out anybody

Remember, if you ever need a helping hand you will find one at the end of your arm

As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands, one for helping yourselves and one for helping others.

The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair.

The beauty of a woman must be seen from her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides.

Last week someone reminded me the meaning of being beautiful. :)

This poem reminded me of them.

Thank you for keeping me grounded and never letting me walk alone. (even when i think i do!)

JENNY WHO????????????

Who is Jenny??? I keep hearing this girls name over and over at work lately.

How annoying is it for someone to just decide your name is Jenny?

Well it is VERY ANNOYING!

Not to be a complainer as some of you sometimes think of me, let me explain...

We have a new girl at work, UGH!

New to work not to me. We have known each for almost 17 years off and on. She has decided to call me Jenny, no one calls me that except for Dave's family. Never do I allow anyone else to call me that and all my true friends know my name is Jennifer or Jenn NEVER Jenny. But alas, she insists and it has been driving me crazy and now my coworkers are catching on.

I remember now why we stopped talking.... not to complain or anything. :)

Flowers Flowers Flowers

This Memorial weekend we stayed home and worked on our garden.

We spent the morning at Blocks Nursery and filled the jeep full of flowers.

Before

Then took the challenge of weeding and planting the flowers.

After

Once the flowers start growing and filling in we will have a nice cottage garden.

Memorial Day BBQ!

Well almost a BBQ.

Someone had made other plans and a cozy new home.

Happy Birthday Mom

Today is Mom's birthday.

Aunt Patty was sick and couldn't come so she sent this nice flower arrangement.

Eastern Market Flower Sale Downtown Detroit



Today we drove Aida to her bus at the greyhound station downtown. She is on her wayo to Kentucky and then Home to Puerto Rico for a few weeks. I know she is sad to leave her new condo here in Michigan but excited to see Ed's baby Ditto and go home to check on her chickens in P.R.
After dropping her at the station we were ready to hit the flower sales! I can't remember ever being at Eastern market but I most likely have. I know I haven't been to Flower Day weekend!

What a Mad House! People were everywhere and we arrived early. I think we actually got a preety close parking spot about 2 blocks away, although after the third tirp to the car with heavy baskets of flowers it didn't seem so close at all. I thought maybe we should have brought a wagon but honestly thought well we won't be buying tooo many things... Wrong!


Even thought it was cold and rainy and the food was very expensive we had a great time and I would definetly go again next year, with a wagon of course.

Total 13 going on 30 Moment!

Could it be true that I am holding 2 count then 2 tickets to Duran Duran???!!!

YES IT IS!!!!

Check out the Cool Jeans!

We took pictures with the cell phone. Turned out pretty good.

Here's Simon on stage we had a better view than the camera did! :)

Girls on Film... Almost like your at the concert!

Press the arrow to watch the video

It was so exciting to go see my oldest and all time favorite band Duran Duran!



All day at work I was so nervous that something would go wrong and I wouldn't get to go. Most of the time when I get excited to do things something or someone always messes it up! But not this time, except maybe for the last few guys at work who may have gotten a "Not so Good" Haircut because I just couldn't wait any longer to get home and leave for the concert.
When we finally got really to go and left for the concert I had so many flash backs of my friends and I singing and dancing to Duran Duran. Remembering how we said can't wait till we're all grown up and can go to concerts all by ourselves. Picturing my room with the cool bunk beds we had and half the room seperated into a "private" study area because my brother would always bug me when Iwas "trying" to do my homework and stuff.


Anyay, the concert was so great! We had such a good time dancing and singing the old songs and some of the new ones, but everyone really came for the OLD SONGS! They sang Hungry like the Wolf, Reflex, Girls on film (see video), Planet Earth and the encore song was RIO!!!!! WOO-Hoo so much fun.


The best part of the whole night was hanging out at the stage door waiting for them to come out to the buses. I am not sure if they ever did because it got really cold and we left early to go to the casino.I met some very nice people waiting outside.



People who were like me .. CRAZY lol.

Really people who just wanted to have the chance to act like you were 13 for a minute and not remember that your 35 and have responsiblities and that maybe just maybe...

Simon Lebon would come and steal you away from this life...... ;)

I am dreaming of course but thats what being 13 is all about!

Treasure Mart YAY!!


Finally I got a chance to go to the TREASURE MART!!!!!!!!

Woo-Hoo I love it.

Somewhere in Ann Arbor near Kerry Town is this 3 floor cute as ever thrift store.
They have everything and more. Each floor has something you have never seen or remember from your past.

The best part is everything is so cheap!

If you get the chance you have to check it out! It is the most fun you can have at a Thrift store.

Donations..

On April 26Andersonville Community Church hosted the 2nd Annual Community Baby Shower in Clarkston. This shower was for unwed mothers and teen mothers who were in need.
Since I make baby items, embroidered burp cloths and aprons it only seemed right to donate a few things to the girls. These are a few or the items I sent.
