I am dedicated to catching up my blog. I fell behind again, but don't want to be behind anymore. There are so many days that I want to blog an idea or thought, but I stop myself because I just am not caught up. I love this blog, so I am going to post several months all at once and try to get back to the present, so I can keep going.
So October went by in a blur of soccer, birthdays, visits and family time.

Matthew and the Varsity Soccer team, having their regular pregame "pasta night" at our house. |

An amazing cake made by Mary Alice for her friend. The horse is sculpted by hand out of Marshmallow Fondant, which she made herself. Inspired by Pinterest. |

|
Creating new fashions |
|
I made Doggy PJs for Shanna's Halloween costume, at her request |
|
And somehow, I got talked into making a Renaissance Dress for Mary Alice for hers. If you are wondering how I did this, please see my biz post 10 Minutes at a Time. |
|
It wasn't anywhere as easy as the PJs (ok WAAYYY more challenging) but somehow, sew a little, rip a little, sew a little, rip a little, sew, sew, sew a little, RIP A LOT, later we had an awesome, finished dress. |
|
Yes, these are actually eyelets down the back! |
|
Some cutie cupcakes Mary Alice whipped up for her lunch table.... |
|
And a spaghetti costume for her horse. She is a chef. |
|
And some general light hearted merriment just because it's fun. |
