East Coast Style, Loving Miss Piggy, New Craft room updates, and my disasters


Dear Diary...sorry, I know it's been a super long time since I last wrote.
I have been very busy rocking it crazy style!  


First my family celebrated Thanksgiving East Coast style, I remember why I love Miss Piggy so much, some craft room updates, Kid Rocked My World, and some crafty disasters I don't want to talk about!

THANKSGIVING 2011

So first off  I spent a non-traditional Thanksgiving with my family and it was delightful!  We all enjoyed it so much that I think it will become a tradition going forward.  I was able to spend much needed family time with my husband and son cooking and baking our “East Coastal” meal!
Our Thanksgiving mean  consisted of a Morton’s blue cheese salad wedge, asparagus and garlic, rolls, sweet and sour meatballs, and lastly some crab legs.  Yummy!

This is my son Cory James…cooking! His garlic and asparagus was really good too!

 We currently working to get our Christmas tree decorated.  Charlie Brown’s tree has one more ornament than The Hickman tree has right now!

On the most sensational

Muppetational
This is what we call the Muppet Show!



My husband and I were able to sneak off to see a movie and all I  can say was when we walkout of the theater, I was beaming a smile ear to ear!  The Muppets was a great movie!  Jason Segal just did an awesome job bringing my beloved The Muppets back to their glory!!  LOVED IT!  I have been Miss Piggy’s biggest fan and have a collect to prove it.  After seeing this movie my husband said that he now understood my love for Miss Piggy and he unstanding me better!

 My Name is Kid Rock!

My Thanksgiving Weekend was completed by going to see Kid Rock at that House of Blues in Chicago.  It was a great show and have to say that I love his shows.  He never let's me down as a performer. Thanks Christine, my bestie, for being my body gaurd!

AFTER:

It's a little brighter and lighter in the basement now!  I am still trying to figure out how to organize my things better, but I am loving the space!
 
CRAFT STATUS:
I have been trying my hand at sewing fabric business card holders; I am a sewing disaster!  Those little buggers are getting the best of me, but I am determined to get at least one completed.  Some how I jammed up my Zutter and when I went to punch my album pages double punched them and now have to start over...thank goodness there was not a lot of detail on the pages yets.  Now, apparently my scanner does not want to find its driver so I can show you my disasters..it's properly better this way......

 However, I am super excited because I picked up lots of fabric on sale on Black Friday…so some crafty things will be happening shortly!
