Music My LIFe

Yes! Music I love it and this is a list of my most favorite songs of 2010

I think you can tell a person by the music they listen to. 

Usually if you dress punk rock - you listen to punk rock 

If you are a full time ballerina - you probably listen to a lot of  classical music

If you only listen to country - you  most likely dress like a cowgirl, cowboy

And if you like a song just cas it's good - your like me! And yes - most songs are connected to feelings!

Merry Christmas

Christmas is such a special time of year! I love celebrating the birth of our Savior. I was so full on new emotions this year as trying to really feel the spirit of Christmas. It's hard to describe in words the powerful feeling I felt this year but it was amazing. I'm so grateful for Christmas and the wonderful things that come with celebrating it. 

Thomas, Asher and I went and cut down a tree from Strawberry Canyon up in Idaho by Preston. Together we climbed up the mountain and dragged it back down to our truck. Asher loved every second of the adventure and the tree was incredibly beautiful!

Then i fully enjoyed getting our Christmas box out and decorating our tree and home. I lighted and decorated our whole tree all by myself. I strung 1400 lights and Asher helped my put on the ornaments.

This is a baby sling, our really good friends have a business called baby wearing and gave me this sling. I love it because it's really easy to use. I delivered our neighbor gifts while carrying Asher at the same time, it was awesome 

Thomas a I went to Wal-mart a couple days after Christmas and I found this adorable candle warmer. It's super cute and I got it for $7.00!! That's a super awesome DEAL! 

My parents came and visited Christmas Eve. We loved having them and Asher loved his presents. We also went to eat Chinese at our favorite Chinese restaurant in Logan called Wok On Wheels. 

We spend Christmas at Thomas family's house and i forgot to take pictures but it was really fun. I got a shirt, a really cute decorating thingy and  EXACTLY WHAT I ASKED SANTA FOR!!!! VIVA LA JUICY COUTURE. Thomas totally surprised me and I was really really happy!! Thomas got some awesome stuff to and Asher loved his toys.

Amy Butler Messenger Bag

So during the Logan gift show i gave out my number to a few people who liked my things a lot. I had a lady call me and order a laptop bag with John Deere fabric. It was really fun but frustrating to make this bag. Frustrating becasue it was the first time i have made it and fun becasue i really enjoy sewing new things. So this is the finished product and the lady ended up loving the bag. 

Logan Gift Show, Papers!!

 So I decided to go outside of my comfort zone, and try a fun gift show. It was held at the Riverwoods Conference Center in Logan, UT. As you can see from the picture, it's a really nice place. I didn't do as well as i would have liked, but I meet some great people, learned a few good lessons, and made enough money to make it worth it. If you asked me if i would do it again. I would say yes! defiantly, just not in the middle of the semester while I'm taking 14 credits. I was kind of crazy, but that's what makes life fun. 

Riverwoods Conference Center

I spent a lot of time and money making these 8 super cute bags, but bags were being sold at almost every booth for much cheaper, and I wasn' willing to sell mine for less then what there worth, so i didn't sell one bag. I got like a thousand

"O THOSE ARE SO CUTE, ADORABLE, ect. ect.I'm hoping to still sell them on e-bay, KSL, or something I'm not sure.

This picture is of Asher and I hanging out in front of our booth. 

I made about 30 sets of fridge magnates and everybody loved them. I had a few different sayings on them, and I sold every single one but 2 sets.

I feel that this was my biggest mistake. I absolutely loved the idea. I made recipe boxes. I got some cute paper, with a clear recipe box, with 6 tabs and I laminated them. I made 20 boxes and only sold 4. I don't think they sold because anybody could look at the cute things, and make it in their sleep. O well, It was a good lesson learned. Now I'm not sure what I'm going to do with 16 more recipe boxes.

 

These were my pride and joy. They are my secret design. I sold 5 lamps out of 6 that i made. 

So After I completed my gift show on Saturday, I had a full week of paper writing. If I though I went crazy getting ready for my gift show, I was about to find out my brain could go a little further. I seriously went more insane then I have ever have before in my life. I couldn't think straight, So during the week I accidentally shaved the bottom half of Asher's head bold while giving him a hair cut, I lost everything I put in my hands, and I spend so much time on facebook it was disgusting. I'm so grateful that week is over. But I did accomplish writing 24 pages. Including: 

14 pages written on my home-visit write-up for Infancy and early childhood development 

4 pages written on sibling abuse for my abuse and neglect class 

6 pages paper written on the debate of weather of not moderate alcohol  consumption is good for your health

All i can say is I"M SO GRATEFUL IT"S THANKSGIVING BREAK!! 

Mr. Potatohead and stuff

:) Today Asher went down for a nap and i came and sat down on our couch. I look over and on the floor lays a Mr. Potatohead. Last night while i was cleaning i put him all back together and he looked great. As i looked at him, his eyes were sideways, he's missing a nose, a mouth, both arms, both ears and a play skinny block is stuffed between his shoes and belly. It made me so happy i couldn't even believe it. Why?? I suppose it's becasue the sweetest little boy had the time of his life tearing him apart this morning.

:) So I'm taking part in the  Logan holiday gift show!! It's Friday and Saturday. I made a lot of stuff and I'm really excited to have my first boutique. I'm also nervous to go outside of my comfort zone. I will post pictures after the show.

:) I just cant get myself to listen to Christmas music yet. I just cant untill Thanksgiving is over.

:) Asher is learning how to talk. He is learning really well how to mimic what we say and it's so dang cute.

:) School is school and I'm SO excited to graduate, it will be done before i know it!!
