Scenes from a Reunion

The class of 1981 met for their 3oth class reunion on Saturday, August 27, 2011. I brought our Senior yearbook along to look at. Three of us gals were part of the yearbook staff our senior year. We used the yearbook to try to figure out who people were as they walked by. Yes, they had name tags on but who could see them from a distance? A photographer attempted to take a "class photo" of us and this is what Ken was able to get with our camera. It was a little bit like getting Kindergarteners to pose for a photo! :) Here are the three "Amigas." My friend Missy, who I have known since Kindergarten is in the middle and our friend Gale is on the end. We are the threesome that was on the year- book staff. Oh, what fun we had!! A really cute guy--I should of asked him out!!!
Oh wait, I'm married to him!!!
We had a great time and it was
fun to see people that I hadn't
seen for awhile.

Stuff

A little houskeeping. 1--Thanks for all the suggestions for clothing choices for my reunion tomorrow. I believe that I have come up with a fun combo but you will have to wait for the pictures! 2--Blessings a prayers for all of you in the path of Irene. May you stay safe and ride out the storm without any problems! 3--I have completed TWO weeks of the school year as of today! It is still hard to believe that we are back at it. We have a good group this year and I feel that we will get a lot accomplished with our students. 4--Mr. Ken had the afternoon off and is buzzing around here getting things done. Right now, he is mowing the yard as I type this post. It is good to have jobs but they do get in the way. :) Have a wonderful weekend ! Watch for the reunion post at a later date. ~Keep on Dreaming~

Fun to Do

Back in July we went to some garage sales in a friend's neighborhood. I found these tea towels at my friend's sale. Not really knowing what I wanted to do with them, I brought them home. Put them in my sewing room and left them. Well in my wanderings I decided to make another tea towel apron. Some of you will remember that I made a set of these for a bridal shower at school a couple of years ago. I ironed one of the aprons and then using Heat Bond, ironed the ribbon I found in my stash on the apron. I wanted a pocket on this apron so using part of the other tea towel I figured and measured for the pocket. Since the fabric is striped, I wanted the pocket stripes to go vertical as opposed to horizontal. I folded the raw edges under before sewing the pocket onto the apron. The side edges were already sewn. After I sewed the pocket on I sewed a line down the middle of the pocket sew it was two pockets instead of one big one. Voila! Here is the completed apron.
Here I am modeling my apron
for you. I think it is very cute and
I like the way the pocket turned out
too.
Tea towels are very inexpensive and
these are so easy to make. If you
need a quick gift this is it!!!!

A Question for You? ? ? ?

I am hoping my blogging friends can help. What would one wear to a place called Brew Top Pub and Patio for a high school reunion? There will be a DJ, dancing, cash bar and hors d' oeuvres. The main menu will also be available. This is on Saturday evening at 7:00 in the evening. It is supposed to be sunny and 87 that day. I'm thinking one would lean on the "business" casual side of clothing choices????? Don't you think that would work? ~Keep on Dreaming~
