Thriller Night!!

This week we had our annual Thriller week at the rec center. My instructors taught the entire Thriller Dance 3 nights during our group exercise classes. On the last night we encouraged them to dress up and we decorate the room and give out prizes. It is always one of my favorite nights, even though my instructors and I are typically the only ones dressed up. This year we had over 200 people participate in the 3 days. It really was a lot of fun and any excuse to dress up in a fun costume I will take it. I loved the weird looks I got as I was driving home last night stopped at all the different lights. Here are some fun photos from the event. Because not many people dressed up, Abby my student supervisor and I even made it into the campus paper on the Front page I might add! I hope I don't get bombarded with people asking me for my autograph today. I have a tough job but someones got to do it! Also I would like to thank my sister Lindsay for providing me with this dress. It worked great for my whole Zombie Princess look. Who says you can't wear bridesmaid dresses again, and I didn't even have to shorten it!

What I do when Gabe goes out of Town

So Gabe was gone this past weekend. So I had a lot of time by myself. I decided to go to my favorite place on Friday that Gabe doesn't like to go with me...Hobby Lobby. I know Ive said it before but I love that store, if I had money my house would be overly decorated with everything in there. I have been wanting to make some more hair accessories this time out of fabric. So I found some cute fabrics and got a few cute embellishments. I made 2 headbands and 3 bows. We recently got netflixs so I think I stayed up until 2am making my creations and watching cheesy romantic comedies. Saturday I got the whole house cleaned mopped and everything. Don't worry Gabe I saved the game/Laundry room for you to clean. And then I saw a great movie with a friend. Life as We know it. It was so cute and I recommend it for others who need a girls night out or can convince their spouses to go see it. Gabe definitely wasn't heart broken that I saw it with out him!

I also kind of want to start sewing, I have always said Never that sewing wasn't for me, but I have gotten into Project Runway this season and I kind of want to see if I can create something.. So I might need to borrow a sewing machine soon and see if I can tackle something easy.
Well here a few photos of my cute bows and flowers! Gabe thinks I'm crazy because my whole dresser is covered in these now.
