San Diego, CA to Alexandria, VA



Ali and I stepped off the plane in San Diego a short 2 years ago.  I was 34 weeks pregnant with Cookie.  Karl picked up us from the Airport and took us for fish tacos at South Beach Bar and Grille.  They are the BEST fish tacos ever! 
I have fallen in love with this area.  Perfect weather, beautiful beaches, tasty food, and nice people.
Alas, we have sold our house and moving on.  Today we pack the car and start our 3 week journey across the entire US to Alexandria, Va.

Sew-a-bration of Womanhood

This post contains affiliate links. When you purchase a pattern through those links I earn a percentage of the sale. 



Sew-a-bration of Womanhood is all about the bonding of women and sewing for ourselves.
Boy o' boy do I like sewing for myself.  I am the definition of a selfish seamstress.

A few weeks ago, I had to attend a Silver and Gold Cocktail party.  I had nothing silver or gold in my closet.  That needed to be rectified.  I  chose Mouse House Creations Caroline Party Dress.
Or rather PAR-TAY dress.

The girls birthdays are about 2 months apart.  For the past 2 years, we've done a combined party for them.  It works well since they are young.

2014 theme:  Kitty Cats!
