Happy Birthday to two of my favorite people in the whole wide world! Bethany yesterday and Danny tomorrow! Bethany is finally old with me… and Danny is basically ancient… he’s turning the big 3-0! :)

We were supposed to go down to Ft Collins yesterday for a cooking class… but this rain has been so insane the past few days… the highway was closed! Of course we didn’t look before we left, thinking for sure it would be open (yesterday morning was actually sunny for a while), but then we reached the flashing lights and barricade and had to turn around :/ Then we had plans to go to dinner with my pharmacy people (the guys were planning a shrimp-eating contest at Red Lobster)… but the weather killed that too. And of course we didn’t realize that one until we got there either. We walked in, said what party we were looking for… the girl wasn’t sure so we walked around to find them… once we didn’t find them I checked my phone… sure enough, 15 text messages. Oops. It was just one of those days. So we’re not even attempting to go anywhere today… we’ve been hanging out with the pups instead :)

AND, here’s sewing project #8 — $2 PJ Pants for the boyfriend! :) Made these from a sheet from the thrift store. It’s not that he’s not worth more than $2… it’s just my way of recycling. It’s almost like there’s a whole pile of sheets/curtains/etc. just waiting to become more exciting things… I’m just giving them the opportunity.

I used this tutorial as a guide, except I didn’t make the extra horizontal cuff like they did.

Next time… pockets!

Here’s the making of:
