I AM BACK!!! Internet finally up and running! How I have missed my crafty friends!

I am a 33 year old SAHM that loves anything crafty! I have been married right at 10 years He is a major Star Wars geek so I have done (made shelves for) many geeky crafts over the years I have two little cuties (9 year old boy and 4 year old girl) I love to read, watch tv (usually while crafting), watch movies I love the color green, anything Hello Kitty, cows, ladybugs, monkeys, and frogs (my daughter's room is frog princesses I painted all the murals) and monogrammed (I am a southern belle that way)

I LOVE LOVE LOVE my embroidery/sewing machine and love making things for others and especially my kids! I love to sew cute things for my little girl as well as re-purposing outgrown items into new ones I have gotten in applique big time lately doing initials and holiday shirts for my daughter and some friend's kids I sell monogrammed items (mainly hairbows) on eBay and at craft's fairs.

I also LOVE to cook, make jewelry, paint, and scrapbook.

I think Tivo is the greatest invention ever! I am a total night owl so at night when everyone is sleeping you can find me catching up on my shows and doing some kind of craft! I like the Office, 30 Rock, HIMYM...I love to laugh I also like many dramas Criminals Minds, Law & Order:SVU, House...and while I like reality tv I don't watch much of it anymore except Top Chef, Project Runway, and Amazing Race. I am still mourning the loss of Gilmore Girls, Veronica Mars, and Friends!

I don't make it to many movies since I have become a mom but I do think Netflix is the second greatest invention ever (see above for #1) My favorites are Clueless, Empire Records, 13 going on 30, Rent, Twilight sagas, Sex and the City, too many to name really. Though don't think I am just a chick flick girl I love a good make you think drama. I just consider my favorites the movies I would and have watch over and over again!

I love chick lit and I am not ashamed to say it! Not really "romance novels" but the smart witty books about girls! I will read anything by Sophie Kinsella, Jennifer Wiener, Jen Lancaster, Meg Cabot, and Jane Green. I like to read to escape not to have to look up words I don't know and reread pages twice to understand it! I love the Twilight series also even though I am "too old" for it!

I have two kids a 9 year old boy who is really into art/drawing and reading! He loves Star Wars (like his Daddy) but also Bakugan and superheroes. He plans to participate in some of the kid swaps and is really excited about it I also have a 4 year old daughter who is special needs. She's the cutest sweetest little girl ever!
She is really into Strawberry Shortcake, Hello Kitty, Kai Lan, Dora, and making crafts. She loves to color/paint with watercolors, stickers, puzzles, and glitter!!
