My weekend started with a soccer game. My cousin and I were guilted into going to my niece's soccer game. Actually, a few years ago we were banned from attending them, by my sister, because we yelled too much and too loud! Tell me this...how can you just sit there, and not yell, when your child is close to making a goal! They do. They sit there. Not just my sister, but all of them. Only three people out of all of those parents were yelling. My cousin and I were yelling, and some guy, who I asked why he wasn't coaching!
And here is a little bit about my niece. She is into making purses out of duct tape.
She wants world peace...
and she has this poster of Justin on her wall. And when I saw this I said, "ooooh this reminds me of when I used to have Donny Osmond on my wall." And my sister said, "yeah well, she did not put that poster up, her friend Madison did. She put this poster up."
I love these churches...in old neighborhoods....churches that were built years ago by real craftsmen who were proud of what they did.
Ok.....ahem....
we didn't actually "go to church" we went to this church for a festival.
A french market festival...they had beer and wine and food....lots of food...and bands that played good songs...
and flowers
and artsy stuff....

and here is just a sampling of some of my favorite booths....woven rugs...

flowers made into headbands and pins and such....


And this lady was yammering away....I have no idea what she was saying because I was coveting these....

religious medals. Some from 1958 she said! Is it wrong to covet religious medals at a church festival? I couldn't help myself. She made some cool jewelry type things with these (notice her neck and arms) and she is doing her "part to spread the message" she said...but I still coveted. I reckon' the next time I go to church, I'll attend the service. Because I'm still coveting...I want to make some of that jewelry with those old medals.

knitted scarves...my sister bought that orange and pink one because....yes I could make it for her...but not for FIVE BILLS! (Scribe - that means 5 dollars) I know! The yarn cost more than that!
