I've been a very bad, bad blogger :( Here's some more updates....
This is a mirror that Trent dumpster dived for me from our old duplex in Olathe. It was in a pretty banged up situation... but after two years of living in our basement it was time for an overhaul.
After a coat of primer and a couple coats of spray paint... here she is fancied up! It reminded me of the mirrors in princess Disney movies and whoever threw it out in our old cul-de-sac... THANK YOU! One man's trash... another man's treasure ;)
Here's her new home :) She is now hanging in our front foyer. The grand plan for someday is to have a Pottery Barn type bench and basket storage underneath it. What would be really awesome is for Trent to use his new tools and build me one ;)
Me and Jeryn Fe at the GEHS game... she was the best looking Blazer fan in the stands!
I know this one is dark... but Jeryn is just too darn cute to not post it.
I would like to say that me, Jess, Cays and the rest of us gals at the game were there for the football... but let's be honest... we were there for the cheerleaders and the socializing.
Jeryn and her Tio Trent in a deep convo
All bundled up once it got dark.
Almost time for bed.
Shantel, Adam, & Baby Hunter at the game.
After the game we came back to our house for the after-party... which of course meant power hour!
Post-power-hour
This is our hard pic... riiiight. If you only knew how many we had before this because somebody was always cracking up.
The guys have learned to stay clear of power hour by hiding upstairs with the food.
September's surprise date night was planned by me. Like I've mentioned in some other posts... Trent and I are taking turns planning our monthly date nights for the other person.
My date night was taking Trent to his first ever Cinema Suites experience at AMC 30! My first time was earlier this summer and I've been going on and on and on for months about how he's been missing out. So after hearing him talk about wanting to see Ben Affleck's new movie, The Town, EVERY time he sees a commercial for it... I knew I had my date night done :) We had a blast... ate ourselves silly... and had a fantastic September date! Plus the movie was awesome... Ben is making a comeback!
My buddy Austin had a beer and diapers party this weekend so we could all meet his new bundle of joy, Hunter James. He is the tiniest baby I've ever held... he was only 4 pounds something... itty bitty!
I love him... I'll just overlook that nasty K-state crap Austin put him in ;)
Here's the left side of the convention... the rows and rows of shopping went back farther too.
This is the right side... more shopping obviously :) And the classes were held in hotel convention rooms.
After scrapping and shopping all day Lora and I were in need of a margarita and some Jeryn time :)
She had the cutest outfit on! She looked so darling with her little leggings and foofy skirt. Yes foofy is a word.
The other highlight of the weekend was celebrating Bob's birthday!!! And I don't think he even lied about his age like somebody else I know... starts with an A, rhymes with dashley???
Check out the free dessert!!!
Back for Day 2 at the convention!!! I almost felt embarrassed taking my picture by this sign. But then I realized I was at a scrapbook convention, nobody there was judging my ridiculous picture taking. Shoot... they did the same thing I'm sure. Saturday we took two more classes then did just a little bit of shopping for what we missed out on the day before.
The boytoy was even nice enough to set up a scrap station back at the house for us gals! This is our damage from the weekend. I sold my left kidney on the black market to buy it all ;)
Some of the loot... it was scrapbook mecca!!!!!! I can't wait to return next year! Glad I have an awesome mother-in-law that had just as much fun as I did :)
