A scrub top

i've always wanted to try and sew a scrub top, just to see if i could do it...i mean i wear them all the time at work and they look simple enough to sew, so i thought i would try and bust one out, and i did! so here's the finished result...it's not bad but not the best either, i got fabric for 2 more tops so we'll see if they get better as it goes along.

From Camping to Cruising and beyond

this is the original "black pearl" ship that was used in the pirates of the carribean movies

well, our camping trip was a blast and a nice relaxing weekend too. we went to hume lake with a couple of our friends, we either were relaxing at the site, on a raft in the lake or out on a lil fishing boat attempting to fish. the only one who caught a fish was nate, it was too small to eat but we had fun anyways.

i took my mom and sisters on a super fun cruise to mexico. they have never been on one beofre and they all had a grand ol' time! we went to cabo san lucas and took a kayak/snorkel trip and then up to ensenada and took a cooking class, we learned how to cook some basic mexican dishes, ie salsa, tostadas, tamales. it was hard coming back from the luxuriousness(?) of not having to cook or clean for a whole week!! not to mention it was a relaxing trip to boot.

what else....we're still looking at houses, we've found a couple we like and have put an offer on one, but haven't heard yet. we're learning to be patient and wait for what God has for us. He'll give us something we're sure of it!

(sorry about the pictures, they're all kinda mixed up, but hopefully you can figure them out.)
