What I Wore Wednesday - Niagara Falls

So I haven't been as good at taking pictures. I think being sick hasn't helped that much.  We had a busy week, after we returned from KY last Wednesday we went to Niagara Falls with my parents for a few days. It was a nice little get away for all of us.

I am excited about this Friday, to attend  Shes Connected and I get to meet Lisa Marie. I have know her for years on-line from a local parenting group but now I will actually get to meet her.   I still have to figure out my outfits for the days. I will be volunteering, in hopes to get over my shyness.  I am extremely shy when I don't know anyone or get put into a new situation but once I am comfortable, watch out.

This week wasnot so productive  in terms of my projects, Lots of sketching and crocheting going on. You can check them out here where I hold myself accountable on a weekly basis and post my pictures on facebook and twitter daily. 
 
 As with previous weeks I'm linking up with The Pleated Poppy , and the Transatlantic Blonde.

WIWW - Niagara Falls and Creative Journey

My regularly scheduled post for Sunday/Monday didn't happen because we were away in Niagara Falls for a few days and the room we were staying at had bad wi-fi reception. We had a mini family vacation. So this week I will be combining my What I Wore Wednesday post with my Creative Journey post (week 29) and posting it on Tuesday. Yes I know that makes perfect sense but I am so tired and don't have the energy to do 2 separate posts.

 As with previous weeks I'm linking up with The Pleated Poppy , Mama Go Round and the Transatlantic Blonde.

Thursday - work

cardi - Target
tank top - Fashion Bug
skirt - Penningtons
Don't you love the classy place I hide my cell phone when I don't have any pockets in my outfits.  Keeps it close by and safe (when I remember I put it there).

And the girls got new outfits from my mom from Bonnie Togs.

Friday - work

cowl - made by me
t-shirt - from a friend
pants - very old don't remember where I got them from

And these were taken down beside the Horseshoe Falls. It was a great experience for all of us. M first visit to the Falls was when I was 4 days old but I never experienced all this until this weekend. What an awesome thing to see the Falls from down on the river.

Creative Journey - Week 29

I can't believe it's believe I've been doing this for over 26 weeks, it all started here. The year is halfway over, when did that happen. I have been doing at least one creative act everyday. There has been days when I haven't taken a picture of what I have done every day but I have been creative. 

This week was pretty good in terms of productivity, I've gotten back into the grove with sketching plus working on my crocheting. I'm keeping the momentum going.

If you want to see what I am up to on a daily basis you can check me out on facebook or twitter.
