weekend wishes

to one day be able to rock some serious turquoise shoes...


to have a grand ol'time at our first modern sewing meetup...


 to find the patience to crochet this tiny granny square bookmark...


to enjoy some bbq goodness this weekend...


to go the beach & remain calm, cool & collected (or at least try to..haha)...

to add some more color to our summer...


and that my hubs sees these & realizes i NEED them.


it's almost the weekend ladies and boy am i happy about that.  it's felt like an extremely long week.  i keep finding myself daily daydreaming about vacations, quietness and that everlasting search for inner calmness that us mommies can never seem to find.  maybe it's due to the fact that i think my 4 year old is determined to turn me grey and seriously just test every single little thing in life right now.  ahhhh the f*&king fours...not so happy about 4, makes me miss the 3's if that's even possible..lol. (if you want to know why i need to stay calm at the beach read the facebook convo on the luvinthemommyhood page from yesterday)

we've got some good friends coming to visit this weekend and we can't wait to seem them!  i've also got my first get together for our "modern sewing group" meetup this weekend! it's been a long time in the making and i'm so frigging excited about this i cannot even put it into words!  the lovely local sewing shop "satin moon" is hosting us and we get 3 hours WITHOUT KIDS to sew in their lovely space!  can you see the drool coming out of my mouth??  i'm going to get some serious time in on harper's quilt - i cannot wait! thank you satin moon!  if you live in victoria or visiting in town you should check them out.  they have a lovely selection and you can also shop online :)

besides that we're going to a bbq, i have a ton of chores to catch up on (yuck) and a fun tutorial for you all at the start of the week...and maybe.....a giveaway?!  yippee!  love me a good giveaway!  can't wait to show you all the tutorial - i hope you like it!  i also plan on making my big order for my knit picks interchangeable needles!  i've been saving for 2 months and can finally order those babies to come live with me!  yippee! 

i'm wishing you all a wonderful, lazy, fun, relaxing, coffee sipping, sewing stitches, sun bathing, family time filled weekend!!!  have a good one and i'll see ya monday!  what are you all up to this weekend?  any of you deal with some major tantrums this week?  i sure did!  let's chat - it's the weekend :)
