we are back...

ok, can i just say how awesome my trip to detroit was? truly, it was so much fun hanging out with cass, kate, debbie, laura (and mike, ken and erin). even though the trip was only 48 hours, i enjoyed every moment we spent at paper tales. the store that cass has put together is BEAUTIFUL. i actually found all these interesting papers and embellishments that i had not seen in other stores i had been to before so of course i shopped shopped shopped.





and it is hard for me to not get a smile on my face when i see an 8 ft wall of maya road stuff:

and noah loved the fact that he could roam around the store and check out the play area with erin:

and the students there were so awesome. i am so lucky i got to stop and chat and hang out with each of them:

i even picked up some new UTEE techniques from some of the teachers at paper tales! so cool.

and baby noah and david got to sightsee around detroit with ken and erin as their guides. check out noah and erin here. erin is such a cutie pie!

if you are in the detroit area, you need to head to paper tales. beautiful store. beautiful people. beautiful projects.

i am back at work now. project wise, i am working on a skulls onesie for baby noah. i am not one to fork over $24.99 for a cute designer onesie for noah so i whipped out my drawing pad, some felt and embroidery floss and buttons. i will have to take a photo of the onesie when i am done.
