Queen Bee Market


 Felt Balls 
A vendor's display. So cute.
Last night I went to the Queen Bee Market in Carlsbad, CA with my sister. Lots of neat crafts to buy from soaps shaped like cupcakes to headbands. Lots of bow ties this year. My sister got a scarf and a leather key chain. I picked up a pair of earrings. If your in the San Diego area you should check it out.

Legoland

A battle with the Dark Side


Rock Out

 Fairy tales can come true, they can happen for you. If your young at heart.
End of the year field trip to Legoland. D and I had a blast!

Bowtie Bun

Today was wacky hair day at school. I didn't want to be out done by a bunch of preschoolers! I think bow buns are cute but I never had an excuse to try it before today. I am sure I'd get some stares if I walked around Costco like this. I found a very easy how to at Hellogiggles.com. I didn't even need to use bobby pins. It helps if your hair is a little dirty.

Wayfarers Chapel

Wayfarers Chapel




The boys enjoyed running on the lush lawn.

Cute little family in the little chapel.
This past weekend we went to Rancho Palos Verdes, CA for my youngest nephew's baptism. I'd never been to Wayfarers Chapel. It is very small and it sits above the Pacific Ocean. It was built in 1951 by Frank Lloyd Wright's son, Lloyd Wright. It is all glass and stone surrounded by trees. Some people call it the glass chapel. Lloyd Wright liked to call it the tree chapel. I wish I'd taken more pictures inside the chapel however I was kind of caught up in the moment enjoying the baptism and I forgot to take pictures. So all I have is before and after. He is a sweet baby boy and we are blessed to have him in our family. The chapel is very peaceful and open to the public. So anyone can stop by and enjoy the view.

Orange

I am really into Orange right now!

  I love the surprise fabric on the inside.
Elegance Pleated Clutch from Bags the Modern Classics By Sue Kim 
My latest clutch. It is a gift for my sister's birthday. I saw this fabric and I thought of her. It's so Palm Springs. She is into navy blue so the zebra print on the inside is a cheeky surprise.  I was able to start and finish this sewing project in 1 day! I am sort of looking forward to D starting Kindergarten. It's crazy what you can get done in a day without distractions.

Super Heroes & Capes

 Cape in action.
 Able to leap tall buildings
Even the Moms wore capes

My favorite superhero wasn't at school today however I had to share a picture of him.
Today was Super Hero day at the pre-school. I made capes out of old shirts that you don't need a pattern, Velcro or a sewing machine. Super easy and every kid got a cape. You take a Tshirt and cut up the side. Cut the sleeves off and cut off the front of the shirt. Just make sure you leave the hole for the head intact. Presto you have a cape. D is still on vacation so he missed Hero day however I know he is having a bunch of fun with his Grandparents. Everyday is Super Hero day with Mr. D.
