leaving on a jet plane

so here is my prepacking. all except the ball of yarn, i was going to take it with me and work on a pair of socks but i can't find a pattern that i like. anyway i pretty much have all my outfits worked out and it's less clothing than i thought it would be. i always hate when i go on a trip and wish i would have brought a certain t-shirt or pair of pants. and the shoes of course, i always bring too many.
so i'm off to the airport in the morning, we have to drive2 hours to portland but the ticket was much cheaper than flying out of eugene.
i'm really looking forward to this trip, sad that J can't come, but i think the seperation will be good for us.
ta ta for now.

One week to go

So i found not 1 but 2 dresses for the wedding. Just have to decide which one to wear, also have to find shoes.

Finishing up the wedding present and of course i'll probably be working on it the night before i get on the plane.

Very excited to have a vacation and see my family.

3 Years

Tomorrow is J and my 3 year anniversary. Can't believe we have been married that long. time flies fast. We are pooo poor so i don't know yet what plans we will be able to pull off, hopeful at least go out for a good breakfast, but at the very least spend time with this little crazy man (sometimes my dog is so cute!).
And of course i'm sure i'll be knitting, have lots of projects to finish before leaving for MI on the 26th.

Searching for the perfect summer dress

I have a wedding to go to at the end of the month in Michigan. and i'm on the look out for the perfect summer dress. Trying despertly to find something on etsy, like this one http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=25550163 , or at my local resale stores. i'll keep you posted on my progress.
