So I know I've been way way slacky with updating but hopefully this will change (do I say that in every post?) I will do installments of Thailand pictures so you're guaranteed at least a little updating but here's a list for now.

-we had a dandy time in Thailand
-we're exicited about the cheesecake factory opening this week
-we're both not so thrilled about being back at work
-daniel's been working on his music as usual but no new recordings to share yet
-RaeGun is doing well I just finished all my orders from while we were gone and I have 2 wholesale orders
-teaching has been awful and since that was pretty much the only part of school I liked I pretty much hate school

Well most of the stuff I can think of is Thailand stuff but I'll wait for that so they can be joined with pictures

A little update

 


Well this has been life lately...fabric everywhere, on the couch, on the floor, in the dryer, on the table and hidden in every space imaginable. Daniel has two wii games he loves (Metroid and Zelda) so when we aren't playing or eating or working this is what the house looks like -him waving his arms wildly at the TV and me behind him at the sewing machines. Life has been busy it seems like I only update this when I get new baby pictures but here's a little list of what's been going on or coming up for us.

-I've been sick all last week and it's just lagging
-we bought a new couch woohoo, but it won't be delivered until November, I promise pictures will come
-Ava turned one we went to her b-day party with the yummiest donuts in the world and soon after she started walking
-Rae Gun is taking off business is going well and so fun
-school started
-we're finalizing our plans for our trip to Thailand coming up
-Daniel's been in the studio recording 3 new songs. They are so so good, I'll let you know when he puts them on the web
-we went on a church retreat where the trees looked just like those from House of Flying Daggers
-we've watched a lot of movies...some that I remember...The Last Nimzy is that what it's called...it's good you should watch it, Waitress, That Fantastic Four Movie (worse that you can imagine), Hot Fuzz, Harry Potter (2 times) okay more...
-Played with people

I have some pictures so hopefully I'll get a little slide show made and post it up.

finally baby diaz a.k.a kyle is here





Big congrats to Cristy and Sergio...look at that hair. He's so cute.

Ummm... you have to see this



Here's the original if you need reminding

The End



We went to the party to see all the little ones dressed up but didn't wait in line to get the book. So we picked it up around noon saturday and I finished it last night. Yes it was super fast but I was so nervous someone would give something away (especially a student since most of them were excited as I was). So I have to say I am extremely happy with how it ended. I think the book was fun and with all the loose ends to tie it seemed like she took care of all of them. Phew. I'm still undecided about the middle part but I loved the ending.

Daniel is reading it now but he has no desire to rip through it like I did.

There's been a lot going on. Nothing that interesting though, just busy life. It was nice to escape for a couple of days in to Harry's land oh well I knew it would end. Well there are still two more movies left too I guess.

My favorite wah wah had a photoshoot

 


I love her so so much. She talks to me on the phone but sometimes I think she's just telling me that she's hungry and she wishes I would steal her and bring her back to utah to play.

Happy Fourth of July
 

We had loads of fun with our nacho bar, heidi, daniel, mark, kelly and our wii. In addition to eating way too much food we played big brain wii university boys against girls for most of the time it was fun. WOOHOO. so fun to have heidi and daniel in town and mark and kelly to play with.

So much going on
 

So I've been extremely slacky updating this but so much has been going on. So I'll make a list.
-Everyone is popping out babies. (Joel Elliot Birch is is here woo hoo, Baby Grant Wineger also here) Cristy's baby soon to come
-Heidi and Daniel Rodgers moved out here (makes me so happy)
-Diana, Pepe, and Iam my philosophy friends all got jobs
-Daniel finished the Julio Child album go listen to part of it at http://www.myspace.com/juliochild
-I've been getting some work done, well kinda
-people are actually buying stuff from my etsy store, you can visit it {here}
-I made baklava for the first time it was yummy
-Rotten musicians played a show (first in the longest time)
-We got our passports applied for
-We got a wii

And so much more but that's what I can remember while my hungry tummy grumbles.

Busy Bunnies

Daniel and I have been having fun, trecking around looking for deals on records and fabric. This coming up weekend we've got a little vacation planned. It is entirely motivated by my love for cheesecake factory's buffalo blasts. Unfortunately the nearest one is in Boise. So off to Boise we will go. Daniel has identified all the thrirt stores (for records) and fabric stores along the way. So I'm super excited. Mmm.

My labels

I love my labels. I can't stop checking my store and posting in forums to try to get people to look at and maybe buy my stuff I'm way too addicted I think I need to get away from the internet for a while so I can get some stuff done.

Update?



Yeah I know I haven't updated this in forever but it's really because i've been sewing non-stop. Truly, well sewing, eating and shopping I guess is more accurate but here is a picture of my latest baby dress for sale.

Here's a link to my [store] if you wanna check it out. I think it's pretty cool and I started a sewing/sale blog too. Go [here] for that.

And here is a shirt I made. I wont show you the dress because it looks terrible on. I sewed it right and it fits right but stupid me didn't even think of whether the style would look good on me and of course after all that work it doesn't...oh well now I know no bunchy waistlines for me

I love this wah wah!

Fun Times in L.A.











I had such a fun fun time visiting my friends. I wish they were around always, but one night works I guess. Such a good turn out (heidi, daniel, scott, esther, eddie, heather, pip, aaron, ryan, heather, tony, rafe, did I forget anyone?). Made me feel loved.

Oh I forgot!



Here is Tiraya Josephine Bruinsma born 3-21-07. She was a 7lbs 4oz and 20 inches long. But lost some weight is almost back up there. She had a good doctor's report yesterday. 

I've been obsessed

Can't stop sewing baby clothes. These are a few that have already been given out. I still need to find a way to make boy clothes cuter since it seems like there will be a billion boys this summer.

I'm pretty sure I'm gonna start selling baby dresses but I have to figure out how to do it legally.

Happy Birthday to Emma!



She was very clean for the first 15 minutes but then she realized what she was eating and at some point she was eating cake from between her toes.

do do do do do do do do do do. do do do do do do do do 1-2-3. 

A nice little Visit


Heidi and Daniel were out here for a little bit so Daniel could interview for some jobs. All of which he was offered on the spot. Woohoo! can't wait for them to move out here.
