Bachelorette Backtalk - Eppisode Six

Opps! I forgot to post this last night! Sorry to those who were waiting for it!  So...Rated R. Really? What an idiot. I pretty much think his girlfriend is totally awesome for throwing him under the bus; however, I wonder if that was just a stunt too since he wasn't getting much attention on the show anymore. Any media is good media right? We wont for get him and he now looks like a bad ass which is more fitting to a wrestling career than a sweet mama's boy. So I'm not really buying it. Any of it.  Frank is annoying and off my list. Scene's for Tahiti look interesting...does he finally tell her he's gay or something? How random. I feel like Ali has gotten the run around on this show thanks to producer picks for ratings etc....

New Craft Room Adventures: Part One

Well hello! Yes it's true you may think I've fallen off the edge of the earth as far as crafting but don't worry! I'm still here! Turns out the earth is round..who knew! ;)  My crafty craftness has just been on hold while we do some moving and shaking over here at the Avery residence. I have currently been held up in the guest bedroom while I do my crafting which results in me hauling all my stuff into the dining room, living room, kitchen...you get the idea! Aka: driving the hubs nuts! So it was time for extreme makeover office/craft room addition. You see we have this great office downstairs that NEVER gets used and had honestly became the dumping grounds for my photography equipment and various other crap stuff. How we accumulate so...

Field Trip Friday with Just Sew Sassy

Woohoo, it's Friday! Isn't Jax awesome! Guess what, not only are we good friends and blogging buddies, we're cousins too! I'm Staci from Just Sew Sassy. I'm a busy married lady with three crazy adorable kiddos five and under. Crafty things make me happy and keep me sane. I'm still pretty new to the whole craft blogging concept, but I'm sooo hooked. I'm so happy to be hanging out with all you super cool Aly and Ash followers today:)So normally my projects include fabric, thread, a sewing machine, batting... You get the picture. But I'm stepping out of my comfort zone and onto the flower headband bandwagon. Wait. If there is one:)Classy Chiffon Ruffled Headband I do have to say that I LOVE ruffles, and this project was an excuse to...

 -Zzzz zzzzzzzzz zz Oh sorry, I think I fell asleep. Ok seriously, did anyone else find that episode soooo boring.  I'm glad Kasey is finally gone because he was horrid.I still think Kurt and Roberto are front runners.Rated R is back in my bad books. Aly looks pretty this episode but I'm liking Frank less and less.  That's about all I have ladies... Until the little deleted scene thing with Craig on the tiny horse! That was hilariou...
