T Shirt Dress

I found a great blog the other day, and saw the most fantastic dress idea with old T-shirts. Ashley over at Lil Blue Boo has made many dresses out of old T-shirts, like here and here.

Anyways I bought the pattern from her and today I made K a little dress to wear. It's unique and different, I happen to think its adorable. I am sure after I have done a few more, they well just get better. Next time I will make it shorter, I was thinking longer is better... but I went TO long. Oh well, practice makes perfect!



Please excuse the crying, A kept getting the picture and that was too much for her to handle!



So if you have any old shirts, PLEASE send them my way!

Well what do you think??

Sounds Like Life to me.

How about a post on nothing, but everything?
Just some pictures of being Moxley and what WONDERFUL things we are up too!

My lovely friend and visiting teaching companion, Dawn, recently took up crocheting. She blogged about it and I had to have one for my girlys. So I roped her into making one for my girls, and I cant get over how cute it is! I mean really! Have you ever seen such a smile!

We recently went to McDonald's for supper, on our way to swimming! It just so happened that RONALD MCDONALD was there! As you can see Kalia was not too sure about the whole thing, so Ronald was popping in and out of the picture, trying to get a good shot, without her bursting into tears! Oh and now, every time she see this picture she talks about Ronald, its rather funny.

My parents stopped by last Saturday for a quick visit last Saturday and we trimmed the girlys hairs. Grandma cut 1 inch off Kalia's to make it healthy and just trimmed Annaliesse so it was straight across. They did really well, Daddy hung out to keep them still and I just watched.

And what do you get when you feed a 1 year old tomato soup? Well.... this. My sister-in-laws Krista and Karla came down 2 weekends ago and we all hung out and had a good time. Saturday night we attended Chinese New Year with some friends and my sis-in-laws watched out kidlets. I am sure Annaliesse had a great time eating... and a bath for afterwards! Thanks Krista and Karla it was a good weekend, too bad I didn't get any more pictures. :(

This last mess of photos is, just that, a mess. Just odds and ends. Annaliesse loves swimming, and she just likes to float around. OOOO....I love how Annaliesse fell asleep at the bottom of the stairs, I was having a much needed nap, and I woke up and she was asleep on the bottom stair! Being the kind and over protective mother I am , I gently moved her on to the floor. There is a photo of Lisa's girls, waiting to play with play doe, and one of Annaliesse crazy hair lady. But my favorite of this bunch is the one of Grandpa and Kalia in the closet playing.

Meal Plan Monday

Meal Plan Monday

Monday- Pasta (this means Justin is cooking)
Tuesday- Steak and Baby Potatoes
Wednesday- Tinfoil Fish with Rice and peas.
Thursday- Potato Soup... crockpot meal
Friday- Rice Mix (rice, mixed veges and bacon mixed together)
Saturday- Perogie Casserole... crockpot meal

I make the Perogie Casserole like Funeral Potatoes. It is really easy and my kids love it.
Pasta is usually done when Mommy is not home, so I don't have to eat it... but the sacrifices I make! LOL

Another Shirt refashion.

Ribbon. I have lots.

Annaliesse shirts. I have lots.

Ruffles and Stuff. I look at lots.

I saw this, and well.....

I have a feeling projects dealing with Ribbon and/or Ruffles are bound to happen.

Dorky or Frugal

I often find cute little things I want to print for the girls to look at: from the friend, online and Today's Parent.

However I know as soon as I print it and hand it over it is gonna get destroyed!

So I think to myself. If only I had a laminater. I know some people have them, the one from Office Depot for like 180 bucks.

Then..... I had a thought.

I have lots of the 4X6 photo sleeves that are kinda like laminate. So I found this Story of Jesus, I wanted to do for a quite book and sewed it all together.

What do you think? Dorky or Frugal?

I think this girl is hilarious, and I mean funny.


Granted, I don't necessarily agree with everything she writes about, but most of her stuff is rather funny and hits the truths of being a mother.

I rather like her Friday Confessionals.

if I was writing a Friday Confessional about me it would read....

• reason #356 I am a bad mother- I drink Dr. Pepper and I have no intention of giving it up.... ever. Even if my children become addicted to it because of me, that's how the world goes round.


• my dad did it to me... so girls.. Grandpa Chipman started the whole thing


• reason #8743 I am a bad wife, sometimes when Justin has to go young men's, I complain.


• I think the first counselor knows this and secretly laughs at me.


• I don't care

Any ways I think this lady is rather funny. So read her blog and tell me if you think she is funny or not.
