Paul's football team lost their playoff game on Saturday. He was so upset. But the coach had those kids wound way too tight. They were all so scared off making a mistake. I felt bad for those kids but I think their coaches got what they deserved. (If they would of won we would of had to forfeit anyways as not all the kids got their 10 plays. In fact 3 of the kids hadn't even gotten to play until Hubby started yelling at the director about there being less than 2 minutes in the game & having kids that hadn't gotten to play yet.) Then one of the other parent got made because "we were giving up by just letting anybody play". I mean come on it's an instructional league & all kids are supposed to be guaranteed playing time. If you're that worried about it maybe you should move your kid to a premiere league. Hubby & I have agreed that this spring we're moving the kids do a different organization.
On Sunday we took the kids to the pumpkin farm by my MIL's house. They had a blast! You can see the pics here: http://s411.photobucket.com/albums/pp196/mgrutz1998/Halloween%2009/

Now onto stitching. I'm flying through Boo Club! Going to keep with it this week & hope I can finish it up by Saturday. This weekend was the PR sal weekend. I did get some done but not as much as I wanted as I sprained my wrist working out in the yard on the leaves. The worst part is is that 2 days later the yard didn't even look touched.

Didn't post my progress of ToT Fairy yet. I got the bottom of the skirt all done. That took longer than I thought it would. On Monday I'm going to finish up the wording & (hopefully) get her legs finished as well. Here she is so far:



Yesterday I went to my first live sal at my lns Blueberry Hill Stitchery. I had a blast! Can't wait till next month.

How was everyone's week. Hubby got back Thursday night so I got my pics downloaded. First off I'll update my picture with the one from my camera. Here's Stargazer:
Last week I worked on Boo Club. I got some good progress done on it! I finished Spiders & Eek!, and started on Creepy. This one is really starting to fly along. I do have to try & figure something out for the spider web though as it's hard to see. I might also have to do something for the grave stone is Creepy but I'm going to wait until I have the grass done to see how it looks.

Boo Club Set 2 Finish

I finished Spiders last night! They are soo cute! Moving onto Eek! once I catch up on the border.
Sorry about the pic. I took it with my phone. I'll post a better pic next time.

Weekly Update 10/13/2009

Hubby is out of town for work for the week & took the laptop with him. So I can't download my pics from the camera so I had to take this weeks pics from my phone & send them to me. So I'm apologizing now for the quality of the pics. But on the upside I can get more stitching in while his gone.

I'm almost ready to put some more beads into Star Gazer. She is going to be stunning! I can't wait to finish her. I think I'm going to do my ornament for the exchange & then my next installment on Boo Club then back to her!

I got a good bit done on ToT Fairy. My goal was to finish the bottom of the dress (which I didn't do ) But I can finish that & start on the legs next Monday.

See everyone next week.

October 7th, 2009 Update

Didn't get a change to update yesterday. I went on a field trip with my son's class yesterday. We went to a local wetland's reserve. It was a blast! The kids were so excited, they couldn't stop asking questions! It's so neat to see kids wanting to learn! The teachers were awesome! They were so into it & just as excited as the kids were. I am really stuffy from my allergies being out around so many allergens for so long, but I'm really glad I went!
Know onto the stichy! I did a pretty good job on ToT. Next week I want to finish up the bottom of her dress. With out any more delay her she is:
I decided to pull out Stargazer for this weeks rotation.
