Day 36 - My Buddy

If you remember, I went to Milwaukee for the Bead and Button show. I don't know if I mentioned it, but I got to sit next to a baby the whole time! (This is a good thing;) ) He was the cutest thing and he cried only one time! Seriously, he may be the cutest baby in the whole wide world! Oh, and his name is Eliot.

Thanks Eliot for being such a fun car buddy! I would have been bored in the backseat without you! 

Day 35 - Birthday Bash

  Wow. It's been WAY too long since I last blogged! I'm so sorry. I've been extremely busy lately. This past week I made around 550 earrings for a conference my mom was attending (and SPEAKING at!!!). They will be given to all the people who attend the conference. That was a lot of work! But I watched a lot of GAC and CMT on TV...country music videos! I know, weird right? Of all the shows I could have watched while making the earrings, I chose to watch country music videos. Well, that's me! :) And speaking of country music...........

  For those of you unfortunate enough not to know who this amazing man is, I will enlighten you. JOSH TURNER!!!!


  One of our local country music radio stations: B93 was having it's 19th annual Birthday Bash! Over 10,000 people attended to watch some pretty special country artists perform. The best part, IT WAS FREE!! (Well, except for reserved seating, and I was given free tickets for reserved seats!) I was really looking forward to seeing  Josh Turner! I love him! We had great seats, and I got to see one of my favorite country singers for free! LOVED IT!

Day 34 - New Stamps

Today was another day at the Bead and Button Show. At the show they have a HUGE bead and tool sale. People from all over come and sell beads of all kinds. Yesterday at the sale, my mom bought me two design stamps, and I was given three free stamps by PJ Tools, which are really cool! Besides a set of pliers my mom gave me, I had no tools of my own. Now, I have my own stamps! I'm SO excited to use them!!! I also got a really cool wire weaving kit today, but that's a blog post for another day. :)

My mom bought me the two in the front, and the three stamps in the back are the free ones. I love them all! I'll be sure to post pictures of what I make with them! YAY!

Day 33 - Bead and Button

Yesterday, my mom, one of her friends, and I drove to Milwaukee for a HUGE bead show. It is, in fact, the largest in the nation. It is called, simply, Bead and Button Show. My mom is teaching three classes! THREE! These are her first classes she's ever taught to adults, and she's teaching at this huge show! YAY!

I came to help her with the classes. I'm just the young apprentice, but I get to come to this amazing event! This picture is of me and my mom before one of her classes today, and may I say that she did awesome? Yes, I think I will. Her students loved her, loved the class, and learned to love jewelry making more! I'm so proud! :) Check out her blog post about the Bead Show BEFORE we left for it, and stay tuned for her blog post AFTER we are finished! 

Day 32 - Memorial Day

I found my camera!!!! YAY! Ok, so here's the picture from memorial day I wanted to post:

I think it's kind of cool because of the shadow of the flag on the bottom. That's all I'm going to say for this post, because in this case, the picture is truly worth 1,000 words.

Day 31 - Miranda

I have not been able to find my camera since Monday. I really don't know where it is. I've tried to find it, but I was unsuccessful. I have some great pics from Memorial day that I wanted to blog about, but I need my camera first! Grrrrr

Today, I have a picture of my friends play that I went to last week. She was a bug. A funny bug. This is her pose. You wouldn't know this, but this is such a Miranda pose that I would be surprised if she did anything else! Haha! Love her!
