renaissance festival

we got to go the renaissance festival this weekend! i had a blast. got to see belly dancers, birds of pray, sword fighting, singing and dancing!! i also shopped. i bought myself a really cool leaf-blade thing. it looks like a leaf and when you open it's a blade. i also bought a belly dancer scarf. it has coins hanging from it and it makes noise when you walk :D. we also go to see the knights jousting and sword fighting. at the end we got to see the fireworks...lovely!!

P.S. I didn't have a chance to post my new plushie. i made it for Dia de los Muertos (day of the dead) hope yall like it!!

Satuday Night

Yesterday my husband was out most of the day!! he is in the USAF Honor Guard. he had to do two funerals yesterday! i was so bored and lonely. he didn't come home till 7pm. so i told him i wanted to do something. we went to the mall. i was trying to find the new yotsuba&! manga. no luck!! he bought an Egyptian book (he loves Egyptian history). after the mall we headed to barnes 'n noble. didn't find yotsuba&!. so i went to look at the arts 'n craft section. i couldn't find anything, bummer!! then we headed to CiCi's. i love CiCi's!!! After CiCi's we went to Wal-Mart. i was trying to find some Valentina hot sauce. that stuff is the bomb!!!! but they didn't have any.....sigh. everything i was looking for they didn't have. so i went to the cd section to find the Camila cd i been wanting and guess what???? IT WAS THERE..... so i bought it!! Finally something i wanted and they had it!!!! Well that is about it. i got to go.....i'm hungry!

hoot hoot

my parents might be coming for the weekend. MAYBE?! i hope so. i won't know until my dad gets off from work later today. if they can't come and going to start on more plushies. i want to open an Esty store!!! so i'll have this weekend to organize the store :)
N-E-WAYS

i finished another plushie. this time i made an owl! its for my cousin.

DONE!!

WOW! i finally finished! tomorrow i will head to the post office and send these babies to my cousin :D. i hope they have a nice trip! i didn't name them because i'm going to wait for my nephews to name them :D

here is the elephant.

Almost Done

yep! i'm almost done with both plushies for my nephews. i'm done with the little chick! i hope Cy likes it :) know i'm working on the elephant. i'm just taking a little break and eating a snack while watching King of Queens. i love that show!!

so what do yall think?!

elephant, so far

Pincushion

yay!! i finally made one! I really needed one and i didn't want to buy the tomatoes that you see in stores. i found this really cool wrist pincushion tutorial except i made a turtle (of course) instead. i also used a snapple top (>.<) and my husband made the two little holes with a nail.

hope yall like it!!

More Plushies

went to the store a couple of days ago and bought a whole bunch of different color felt and floss. i also finished making my Margarita plushie! it took me forever because i had to buy more floss. today i'm going to start on an elephant and a bird for my nephews! hopefully i finish them this weekend so i can send them!! SORRY for keeping you waiting, Bibi. n-e-ways. we are also having a bar-b-q at the house with my hubby's friend, yummy!! i love baked potatoes!!
