Party Time!

So it's Robby's (my cousin and one of my best friends) birthday today.  Last night, we had a party at my house for him...and we needed some treats.  So my friend Rafe and I made 100 mini cupcakes to serve the masses.  It was actually lots of fun and ended up being an easy treat at the party. I mean, who doesn't love cupcakes.  Plus, I just left them out on the counter and people could come grab them at their leisure.

We had a fun time...Happy Birthday, Robby Rob.  Looks like the party isn't about to end anytime soon :)

And Happy Birthday to Michelle today, too!  Turns out some of my very favorite people were born on September 15!

Sewing Class

So I started a sewing class last night.  I have made it to almost 28 years old and don't know how to sew.   Not even a button.  So I've decided to take charge and learn!

I signed up for classes at a place called, "The Finishing School"...they teach domestic skills.  So I am taking beginning sewing.  It's a 6-week course...and as of last night, I now know how to thread a sewing machine, sew straight and zig-zag lines, and use the serger machine.  Look out Martha Stewart!

And as a fun side note, Mindy (my sis-in-law) was in town last night and so she came with me to the first class.  Fun to have her with me!

So...next week I learn how to make a pillow case.  Hope my family is excited about pillow cases for Christmas :)
