BOO-mont!!!

It's been awhile since I have posted a real life post, but to be honest, we don't do alot down here in "Boo-mont".. Get it??? Beaumont?!?!
Any way..... Kris and I carved pumpkins tonight to get in the Halloween spirt. AND it was so much fun.. although I just carved mine, he had to clean it out for me! EWWWW


Kris was pretending to be a pumpkin head

Kris's is the Owl and mine is the funny face..

They are much scarier in the dark.. MUHAHAHA!

RELAXING on the couch after all the hard work was done :)

Texas Rice Festival

Tonight Kris and I went to the Texas Rice Festival.. WELL there wasn't really any rice BUT there was tons of yummy fair food! There was SO much to chose from so we shared everything so we could taste more...

First we ate this.. A BBQ pork k-bob

Then we ate this.. Alligator on a stick!

Here I am with it (the flash was too bright) and it was very chewy.. hmmmm

THEN, we ate this.. YUMMY Roasted corn on the cob..

Then we ate this.. It was a shrimp and crab hot pocket (I regret this one.. my stomach hurts)

BUT then we ate this.. Funnel Cake!!!!

It was delicious and my festival experience was finally complete..

NEW OLD JOB..

After being in Beaumont for 4 weeks, jobless. I decided to apply at my old stomping grounds of the BUCKLE. AND because I worked there for a year and a half in SLC, I was in!! YAH! I only started this week but I'm already loving it again. Everyone I work with is SO nice!!! Like over the top nice! Its great!


Back to being the layering queen for me! How EXCITING! :)

My first sewing venture!

Lately, I have been obsessed with Project Runway! AND during my obsession, I just so happened to see a DIY skirt on a friends blog that I just HAD to make! Unfortunately, I do not having a sewing machine nor have I ever sewed on more than a button in my entire life. But I REALLY, REALLY, REALLY, wanted to make this skirt!!!!

So while Kris and I were in Houston this weekend, I set out on my endeavor with my sister in law, Kat. She was a huge help at explaining the sewing jargon!!

BUT after about 5 hours divided between 2 days...

I ended up with this! AND I love it!!! I already know what I want to make next!

(The directions for this skirt are found here.)




PS. please don't mind my pony tail hair.. Our church is at 9am.. UHHH!



I made the band twice as wide as it instructs so I could wear a belt with it :)
