Change of plans!

After one or two (maybe 3) Grey's Anatomy my best friend here in Omaha, Dani (who is also an amazing photographer) asked me if I wanted to do a craft day!!! Obviously I said, "YAY!" and went over. We went to JOANNS and got some good stuff. Dani is like craft queen and has everything, love her. Anyways, we made these amazing pillows.
 Ignore the messy background (and creepy cat side of the blanket). I wanted to include the rug in the picture, but since our bed is in our living room, it's covered up....

Originally I made the normal pillow, like the one below, but I wanted something different, so I made up this little tie/knot thing. It's not the most even and prettiest, but I LOVE IT.
The first pillow I made was the green one. After it was done, I slipped the pillow in and it was too fat! It was bursting out of the pillow. So, got this little hair tie and conjured up some way to attach it, it was difficult but got it to work!! And since Dani is amazing she had a button. :) Sewed it on and voila! And the blue one, is just a normal one, but still so cute!

Last craft, but not least....
MY KEY HOLDER!!!!

I got the plain wood frame and JOANNS and then painted it. Dani had some crackle paint, but it didn't work :(. That's okay! Dani has a silhouette. She is awesome, like I said. Anyways, it cut out the keys and then stuck it on the paper! 

I would say,CRAFT DAY WAS A SUCCESS!!!!

Guilty Pleasure

I graduate this weekend!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All I want to do is be crafty this week. I don't have school at all this week because my program is awesome. Nevertheless, we're poor and I can't be crafty. I have all this time and so, I watch Grey's Anatomy. Our bed is in the living room because it have been so hot (we have a window unit,sucks).
So, I lay in bed and watch my guilty pleasure.

That is all.

Yup. It's true.

Remember how I suck and I never write on the blog anymore?! SAD DAY.
We are busy beavers the last two months.

Robert started a new quarter and works a lot. He got a new job where he gets to teach a 10 year old how to skateboard. It's like a dream come true for him. PAID TO SKATEBOARD.

I started practicum and I'm interpreting for the play, "The Crucible"! The play is next Friday and I'm pretty excited. My mentor and I have been working really hard learning all the lines. It's been really hard but the work will pay off. But between practicum and the play, I'm never home.

I told Robert he has to become "the wife" until the play is over.

We get to go to Kansas City the Easter weekend to see the Kansas City Temple Open House! We are excited to enter one of the Lord's newest temples.

More deets to come!

I could just kiss her

Our really close friend Dani is an excellent photographer and on fine summery day in January we decided to go have a photo shoot. She is just phenomenal, I mean, look at these photos!! I couldn't even decide which ones to put on the blog, I just had to decide at complete random.

We are so blessed to have Dani and her family in our lives. They keep us sane during the weeks of grueling school.

Make sure to check out her websites and like her facebook page!
