Finally!!.. Harley has been wanting to go back to school for a few weeks now.. She said she missed all her friends. We didnt get to meet the teacher prior to the first day of school because they didnt have an open house this year. Budget cuts.. hmpf! Bull I say!!! But dont get me started there. Back to harley. So we met Harley’s teacher. She has Mrs. Sweat this year. She seems like a quite and very nice lady. Harley hasnt formed an opinion of her yet. She has quite a few in her class from last year. Here is what she wore on the first day of school:

Hopefully this year is as fun as it was for her last year. Lets hope she loves school as much as she does now, when she gets older

I made this set for a customer on trade. I hate paying for something if someone is willing to trade for something I can do or have. She is trading me some of her welsummer chicken hatching eggs. I will keep you all updated on this progress as well. Here is the towel set.

I got this crazy idea to purchase a seine and spend some family time with my sister and her kids along with my family. We loaded the coolers and the families and headed to Jeykll Island. We rented a condo on the beach. It was 2 bedrooms with a full kitchen, full bath and 1/2 bath. It still wasnt enough room for the 10 of us!! The adults slept upstairs in the bedrooms and the kids slept on the couch, floor, and cot. Well, needless to say, some of us got on each other’s nerves as the day went on. But all in all we had an AMAZING time. We caught quite a bit of shrimp for out first time.. It was exciting. We now know the do’s and dont’s for next time. What was the one thing we could have done differently, you ask? DELEGATION!!! We were all sratching our heads pretty much!! . We finally got the hang of it though. Here are some photos from the day:

This is all of the kids taking a walk on the beach

Now, out of all these, who do you think was the most unco-operative?

This is my oldest son and daughter. She loves her “bubby”

Now these two are inseperable! This is my middle son and oldest neice.

My 2 eldest waiting for the football.. LOL

Now what do you think this conversation is about. hmm

This is me and my sis

This was the seine we got

This was my half of the “catch.” This is the top of the cooler.. They are a bit deeper in the cooler as well!!

Now is my chance to try and get one for FREE!! Thought I would post and give everyone else a chance to win to. I mean, it is the season for giving, right?

Anyways, you can check out her blog here for a chance to win:

It has been a while since I have posted anything.. Thought I would give an update. First things first.. My 2 boys FINALLY got a “real” haircut.. No  more long shag. There for a while, I thought I was raising 3 girls! Anyways… Harley lost her first 3 teeth.

She fell on her chair in her room, last Thursday night. We rushed her to the ER and they told us that she looked ok, but needed to go to her dentist. So I took her for an emergency appointment last Friday. The dentist told us she needed to pull them. You should have seen the shock and horror on Harley’s little face!! She looked at me saying with her eyes, “Momma you said they weren’t going to pull them!” Needless to say, they scheduled her for this past Monday and had the 3 front ones pulled. The good thing is that her permanent teeth have already started making there way down, and will probably be peeking out in a little over a year Here she is:

(hehe, she looks so goofy.. I sing goofy goober to her alot now.. If you dont watch spongebob squarepants, then you have no idea what song I am talking about.. But believe me… Its fits.. LOL)

Here are some of my latest clothing creations I made:

She has done quite a few photoshoots for designers lately but I havent had time to even think about posting any of them.. You can check our gallery on my website: www.andreanelsondesigns.com/gallery . I put all of them there. Haven’t updated it in while with all the newest stuff she modeled. Maybe my next post won’t be so far apart. Until next time
