Happy St. Patties!!!!

Ahh what a great Holiday............
Green, cabbage & potatoes, and Beer.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

We had a little get together last weekend with the fam

My Dad trying to eat my tortillas
This is my Gram, Isn't she adorable?
We have so much fun at our little family get-togethers.

I've realized since we have all grown up,
Its so amazing how relationships with your relatives change.
We are all so much closer now
We can relate to so many more things now that we are all mature.
I think It is awesome.
Family is awesome. :)

I have been realizing this with my parents and siblings lately now too.
We have always been a close family
But as we get older, We get stronger together.
I absolutely love it.

I have 3 siblings.
An older brother and two younger sister.
We are each 2 years apart.
19 21 23 25
I love them.

And as for my parents.
I could not have been more blessed.
[Thank You God for the amazing parents you have given me.]
words can't even do them justice,
Ill leave it at that. :)

---------------------------------

So every few months I like to spice things up in my place of employment.
Two years ago I held a national cupcake day and thought I would bring it back this year because Cupcakes are just
Oh So Magical!

I Love doing things like this because It puts a little excitement into the
boring work atmosphere and gives everyone a little cheer!

So yesterday I made these flyers and handed them out.
Some people were mad because of all the weight they still haven't shed from
the previous cupcake day
But most were happy.
It was fun to see everyone discussing what kind they were going to make
Or something new they were going to try.



[CAUTION]

Never host a "JUNK FOOD DAY" at work
Sounds like a great idea right?

wrong

By the end of the day we were all moving around like seals
When you just stuffed your face with

8 cucumber sandwiches
blt dip
5 servings of chili con queso
2 double chocolate brownies [with powdered sugar]
a slice of rainbow cake
3 lemon bars
and nachos?
yes nachos..

Its hard to move.

We were dragging all day, and Im pretty sure we all gained like 2 lbs.

[however, it was so worth it]

Happy Cupcakes Kids!
Can't wait to post pics of our cupcake extravaganza next week!!!!

a quilty day

I called off work today.....oops.

But I have a good explanation...

I have an order for a T-shirt quilt {it was given to me yesterday}

And its due next Sunday!!!!!

I am all booked up this weekend, and during the week is no good because of work.
So there is my excuse, I plan to knock out the quilt top today,
[if I can get motivated!]

I actually really enjoy making them.


This is one I made previously. The mother saved all her daughters T-shirts from her childhood and before she left for college, she had me make this for her. Soo cute.
I wish I would have saved more of mine.

Well I must be getting a move on, I have a coffee date with the Hubbs. Its nice we both have a day off together. But then its back to quilting all night!

P.S I am thinking of doing a giveaway soon. I don't have many followers yet, but I appreciate the few that I do have. So I want to give you something wonderful! I think you will all love what I have in mind. But I will let you know about that later!

Have a beautiful day!!!!!! It is gorgeous here in Chicago! Yay!
