Number Bean Bags

So I woke up pretty early this morning and decided to start working on these number bean bags. An hour and a half later I was finished! They turned out really cute! I found the tutorial on http://chezbeeperbebe.blogspot.com.

Charlottesville Half Marathon

No. I did not run in it. I wish! But, I did wake up at 5:30 Saturday morning to cheer on a friend! She did amazing too! 5th place in the womens half marathon! Wahoo!

Ladybug Taggie Toy

Yay! After a long day of work, I came home and made some dinner, walked the dogs, and then plopped on the couch to rest. I have been working on a cute Ladybug Taggie Toy for a baby gift. I found the tutorial on Everyday Celebrations. It turned out super cute and it even has little bells inside the wings. I want to make another one! I think my taggies need to be a little short next time.

Speaking of wings... a goose hung out with my class while we played outside. The kids were so excited and wanted to scare it away. All I could think about was the time I went with my sister to her best friends house on the shore. I was about 4 or 5 years old. There was a mommy duck and all her baby ducklings swimming in the water. They dared me to catch one of the baby ducks. Of course I tried. Who would have thought I would actually catch the baby? I DID!! Well, that mom started quacking like crazy and flew right over me and smacked me as hard as she could with her wing. I dropped that duckling so fast and pouted for the rest of the day.

Camping Weekend

This past weekend, Chad and I went camping at Sherando Lake in Virginia with 5 other couples from school. Friday was FrEeZiNg and so WINDY! Brrrr.... I did not pack enough clothes. Saturday was beautiful outside. Not a cloud in the sky and the wind died down. The only problem was that we had absolutley no shade at our camp site. I now look like Rudolph. We had such a fun time though. Smores, hot dogs, games, campfires, and hikes. Lots of fun and good memories!
