Nope, I'm Not Dead ;)

Hello!!! It has been alost a month since my last post and boy have I been missing blog world! We, along with my extended family, just finished our last day of Spring 2010 vacation today. Fwew - so much fun but I am totally pooped! We kicked off the fun almost 12 days ago when Katie and the kids came to town for the weekend before we headed down to meet the rest of the troops in Disney last Tuesday. So over the last 28 days or so I've been either busily preparing for vacation (my to-do list is always huge before I leave town), hosting guests, or partying it up in DW!!! Over the next week, I'll be wearing you all out with pictures and tales from Disney (hopefully you've missed me enough to not be annoyed), but for tonight I'll leave you with one of the projects that kept me from blogging for weeks...

Jacksonville Fashion Weekend

Warehouse Sale weekend rolls around twice a year, every Fall and every Spring. I'd be lying if I didn't admit that my world pretty much revolves around it, and now I have my cousin hooked! Katie came in town this past Friday night just for the occasion - and what a great occasion it is!!! I like it so much that I go twice... first I pay to advertise for my business on their web site so that I can pre-shop the sale on Friday night, second I get in line early Saturday morning with Katie so that we can tag team it for her kids. For me, it is probably my favorite kind of girl's weekend, I LOVE kid's clothes (it's a dream of mine to own a boutique one day) so I already love the activity, and it's really fun to get up early, sit in line in our camping chairs, visit, go out to breakfast, and of course shop! When we get home we have a little fashion show, and my mom comes over to go through our loot - fun! My Aunt Julie (Katie's mom) missed out on the fashion show and "grand display" of our purchases, so I'm dedicating this post and the following pictures to her so that she can see Maisie and Liam's (+ Evie and Annie's) new Summer wardrobe...

All of the goods on my couchThis fishy set with pants is Evie'sThe top with the little buckets is Annie's, and there are matching "Cinderella's Carriage" pants sets for Evie and AnnieLiam's Shark SetMaisie's Butterfly top that has little matching shortsMaisie and Liam's matching froggie outfits (LOVE - TDF!)Maisie and Liam got matching Florida Gator outfits to wear when Daddy comes home :) And that is Maisie's cute green and pink alligator a-line dress.

This was the item of the weekend - Maisie and Evie's favorite... Little Mermaid!!!

I grabbed just one Little Mermaid set for Maisie on Friday night and bought the coordinating Cinderella's Carriage sets for my girls, thinking they could all wear them together on our upcoming trip to Disney. Let me just say this - Evie was just a little hurt when I showed up at home with only one Ariel set, so I went to bed Friday night praying there would be one left in her size on Saturday morning!!! I was able to get one and it's all good now - fwew! Maisie and Evie wore them together pretty much the rest of the weekend, stroking the embroidery, and saying "Ariel, I just love her..." What is it with ALL little girls and the Little Mermaid? Silly little chickies! We had such a good weekend together with my cuz and her kids, they're like four little peas in a pod! I can't wait to do this again in the Fall!!!

Candy Corn Dresses

Very fun for Fall!!! I used those cute corduroy dresses from Old Navy to make these for Evie and Annie, so far they've been a big hit each time the girls have worn them out. Fun!
