So I have been dabbling a little in jewelry and these are a few of my creations. The first one are just a couple of charms I liked that I connected, not complicated. The chain and charms cost 3 bucks!
To buy some feather earrings in the store cost like 8 bucks at least. I have seen some peacock ones for 15 and up. All of these were super cheap to make.
Love these!!!! I think I will trim them.

I made this set for my sisters wedding. Southwestern jewelry is kind of pricey since its turquoise and coral. So I used my coupons and bought it myself. The whole set cost me 25 dollars to make. I went online and checked out some stuff other people had done and just made up the pattern. I love it and it's exactly what I wanted.

I have been trying my hand at a few new hobbies to keep me busy. This was the lemon and blueberry pie I made! It was very good. The one below was a deep dish cinnamon apple, also delicious. My next attempts will be chocolate pecan and strawberry rhubarb.

Justin and Kate


So we aren't that interesting because we don't have kids but whatever. We went to Red Lobster for my birthday and saw Transformers, which was a duplicate of the first movie. Justin got me a book from my favorite author, James Rollins, Chanel perfume and some nice clothes. It was really nice.


For the 4th we went to a BBQ with the Pinnacle group and then ate Mexican ice cream and watched Wolverine. We got to see the fireworks from our backyard which beat all the stupid traffic. I thought a lot about my brothers and am really grateful to those who serve the ideals of freedom and leave their families to protect what we take for granted. I am so proud of them.
