Trek Time

I haven't been posting much lately....that's just because I have been enjoying lots of family time!

Today I woke up at 5:30, met up with a group of people at 6:30am, and dropped my husband off to do the TREK with the youth in our ward. Trek is a three day hike, where they act like the early pioneers who crossed the plains.
Everyone is supposed to dress trek appropriate: Dresses, bonnets, aprons and pantalooms for the girls. Boys wear long sleeve shirts, hats and suspenders....The real kicker is that EVERYTHING they pack, must be packed in a 5 gallon bucket. And let me tell you there is not a lot of room in one of those buckets!!

My mom and I helped the youth make bonnets and aprons. They all did so great!

Many of the items to make the bonnets and aprons look so great were donated! So a huge thank-you to.....

Sweetwater for the great labels! The girls LOVED them!!!! Here is a link to there etsy site.

Quilted works for donating some of the fabric....I need to find a current site for them to link too.
Other fabric was donated by a dear friend, leaving not too much to have to bought by my mom and myself!

Love,

Server aprons

Time for another family wedding

....and time for another set of server girl aprons and hair accessories.

My cousin Chanta was married over the weekend, her wedding colors included red and white. So these were the cute little aprons the server girls were wearing.

I planned on taking pictures of the girls wearing them...especially since my daughter WAS a server....but did I take any pictures?

No

Not even one!

What a slacker mom I am!



Here they are all folded up waiting to be packed..




The front and back of the hair clip...I found that adding a bit of felt helps secure the clip, so that the hot glue doesn't seperate off the clip. (sorry fuzzy pictures here)

...and it wouldn't be complete with out a cute pea pod label.




Love,
