Renegade Craft Fair.

Last Saturday my friend I went to the Renegade Craft Fair. There were so many amazing and creative booths. It was so inspiring. I didn't buy anything for myself which was super hard. (I am still saving money for London) But I did by yarn for my mother. She wants me to make her a scarf.

We got to take some fun pictures in the photo booth.

Oh and I won a case for my phone. Who doesn't love free stuff?
I can't wait til next years Renegade!

fresh

I just picked a bunch of tomato's. We have three different types growing in my little garden. They are all so tasty and delicious. I love growing my own veggies.

It's so simple water, sunshine, and soil. I'm planning on keeping my garden up all year. I just need to learn what to plant in the summer. Maybe some garlic and onions. I will need to check out some gardening books from the library for some planting tips.
Well now I am off to downtown with my Mama. We will be on the hunt for some fabric for some clothing orders I have.

sweet week

What a wonderful week. On Monday Coryn, Gabby, and I headed to Arroyo Grande to visit dear friends. We had so much fun relaxing and spending time with them.
We all had such a wonderful time playing with this little cutie.

Holding the little one below was just as fun.

She had so many new faces to show us.

I don't think little red could get any cutier.

It was an all together lovely trip.

I miss them all already. I can't wait to see them again.

Disneyland

On Monday I went to Disneyland with my mom, grandma, and cousin.It was such a treat. I have a disneyland pass but it is blocked for most of summer so I never get to go in July. My moms cousin who works for Dinsey was able to get us all in for free.

tear tear

Today I packed up my sewing room. I had been using a room connected to our garage to do all my sewing. It was simply wonderful. I felt incredibly blessed to have a place solely dedicated to my sewing. Those of you who sew know how much of a hassle it can be to take out sewing machines, rotary mats, ironing boards and all the other fun sewing stuff. I feel incredibly selfish complaining about no longer having a sewing room to use but I didn't sew nearly as much when I didn't have a room. I hope to continue to sew on a weekly basis. Who knows I might start crocheting and knitting more. I love that you can do it wherever you go.

Dear sewing room you will be missed.

Santa Barbara

Last week my family and I spent the day in Santa Barbara. It was just lovely. We enyoyed sea food twice that day which was wonderful! We shopped at some of my favorite stores and walked around a really great farmers market.

I wish we had a huge local farmers market. Monrovia has a good sized one but it still doesn't compare to Santa Barbara.

We just had to take some of the beautiful fresh flowers home.
I can't wait to have more lovely summer days like these.

dolphins and coryn

This is a super random post but last monday I went to the beach with the Enriquez famiy and we got to see dolphins super close to the shore. Isn't that so cool?

Oh and my camera is working again. My dad fixed it for me.

I missed it so much. Above is a picture of Coryn at a Museum in Santa Barbara. I will have to post the rest of the pictures soon. I had an amazing day with the family there.

Well I got church in the morning, goodnight

slow down

Summer need to slow down. It is just going by way too fast. I only have two more months in the states before I leave to Europe. I really need to save some more spending cash so I am praying for babysitting jobs and other ways to earn some money. I hoping I can get some soon and not stress over it.

Above is a picture of the lovely sunflowers my sister and I bought my mother at the Covina farmers market. There is nothing like fresh flowers...
