Baby Asher! :)

So I have been in a crafty shmafty mood as of late and I just wanted to share this cute announcement I did of baby Asher Lee Brim! :) I wish we could do some "professional" pictures of him for this announcement but seeing as how he is in the NICU that is kinda not possible... so anyways, here it is! :)




enjoy!... or not! your choice!

SOO.... funny!

So I came across this and I thought it was so funny!! I have probably said almost all of these to Ray this week! and I thought I would share a laugh with all the married women out there!

1) Fine: This is the word women use to end an argument when they are right and you need to shut up.

2) Five Minutes: If she is getting dressed, this means a half an hour. Five minutes is only five minutes if you have just been given five more minutes to watch the game before helping around the house.

3) Nothing: This is the calm before the storm. This means something, and you should be on your toes. Arguments that begin with "nothing" usually end in "Fine" (refer to #1).

4) Go Ahead: This is a dare, not permission. Don't Do It!

5) Loud Sigh: This is actually a word, but is a non-verbal statement often misunderstood by men. A loud sigh means she thinks you are an idiot and wonders why she is wasting her time standing here and arguing with you about nothing (refer back to #3 for meaning of nothing).

6) That's Okay: This is one of the most dangerous statements a woman can make to a man. That’s okay means she wants you to think long and hard before deciding how you will pay for your mistake.

7) Thanks: A woman is thanking you, do not question, or faint. Just say you’re welcome. (Unless she says 'Thanks a lot'- that is pure sarcasm and she is not thanking you at all. DO NOT say 'youre welcome', that will bring on a 'whatever' [#8])

8)Whatever: Is a woman’s way of saying F-- You!!

9) Dont worry about it, I got it: Another dangerous statement, meaning this is something that a woman has told a man to do several times but is now doing herself. This will later result in a man asking 'What's wrong?' For the woman's response, refer to #3.

anyways, enjoy... or not.. your choice!

Isn't it IRONIC? Don't you think!? and The Veil!

My mom and aunt Steph will get a kick out of this one... and possibly everyone else! 
As most of you know I am not the cleanest person. I have gotten WAY better upon the event of my marriage to Ray, who tends to be a bit of a clean freak. Also our apartment isn't really that big so any amount of clutter makes our apartment look like a pig pen. However, we do tend to let it get out of hand from time to time... Mostly because of me and my little projects and my lack of enthusiasm for cleaning when I could be working on those projects! haha ... anyways, I had intended to at least tidy up all my little messes before running off to Women's Conference for 2 days. However, It didn't happen. Go figure. So on my way out of the door Thursday morning I left Ray this little note:

needless to say, Ray did not get this not. Wanna know why? Well, I will show you! Here is a picture a little further out so you can get a little perspective.


and a little further...

and add a messy kitchen bar.

Now, this is not the whole of the mess but don't you find it ironically funny that he didnt find the note!? you can barely see it!! haha we had a good laugh about that at womens conference when I asked Ray if he got my note and he told me that he hadn't haha. anyways... it still looks like that today.. only worse haha I have been working on one of my projects and I have been so into it that I havent even left the house for a couple days! But I am SOOOO..... proud of it!

I have been making my sister Nicole's wedding veil! Her bridals are scheduled for the last of this month and I wanted to get started unless it took me forever to finish! but, this veil took me about the same time it took to make the other two veils I made! I love this veil and I hope she does too!

Here is a closer view

and close...

And closer to see the detail! I beaded this cute flower ribbon and put pearls and rhinestones and seed beads!

and up the sides I sewed on the beaded ribbon

and on the top, where I sewed the tulle on the comb I put pearls and crystals!

sorry about the far away pictures. I was too lazy to make them any better!
But there it is! It is finished and now I should go clean up all my messes! :)  I actually really like making veils. It is pretty fun! I just sat on the couch or on the floor and sewed and beaded and watched the Lord of the Rings trilogy and the Pirates of the Caribbean trilogy! It was fun!

Women's Conference

So this last week was BYU's Women's Conference and I got to go with my aunt Steph and my mommy! :)  
 It was pretty fun! 


And on thursday night they had this service stuff that was my favorite part!! we got to make cute little tutus for little girls in the cancer center at primary childrens and for little girls in homeless shelters! they were so fun to make and so cute!
here is me in the process of making one... oh wait jk.. that is the finished product haha

here is me being a dork....

The lady that was taking pictures took this of us and I am going to LAUGH it it makes it to the website in a couple weeks.... or the program for next year haha .... oh dear..

here is the table for the finished tutus. this is awesome because we were some of the first to make a tutu so I am sure there were like twice this or maybe even triple this amount wen the night was over!!

We next went on to the fairy wands! we only got to tie the big purple ribbon on but they were so cute! and they matched our tutus we made!!  I better be having a baby girl first! so i can make cute tutus and fairy wands for them! (and NO I am not prego right now so this is not an announcement.. just a statement!)

anyways, it was a fun experience and I will probably do it again next year!  you learn so much! Thanks Mom for taking me with you! It was fun!

So, enjoy! or not... your choice!
