AAaaaaaaaaand we're back. From nowhere in particular, I just haven't blogged in a few months, there aren't enough minutes in the day to blog enough...
Anyway, I'm going to attempt to catch up to document that past few months, life has been rather good to us!
In August we went to Jackson Hole to do the craft show I had been getting ready for for MONTHS! Aaron and Joe both live there now so we stayed at their house! It was so fun!
Joe BBQ'd some delish pork Loin, this is their backyard! Isn't it gorgeous!?
Everett loved cruising up and down the deck
Still, just behind their house! It was soooo pretty! The evenings were perfect and pleasant! :)
Okay, now the craft show! Aaron and Joe had a booth of mostly earrings made out of glass, they sold a ton of them! They are soooo cool, Aaron did sue glass blowing at the show to attract people o the booth, it worked, it was awesome to watch glass transform in the heat! Aaron is SOOO talented!!
This is their booth {right next to mine!!!} Joe is on the right :)
Here is my booth! I thought it turned out pretty cute! I used the little flags from my classroom to decorate my booth tent
Buckaroo bandana bibs, and ties :)
Binky clips
Shirts and bear bum pjs
Suspenders, and bandana aprons, and some hair bows
I rearranged the booth the second day, much better! I made the apron I am wearing, had special pockets for money, calculator, business cards, pen etc. it was awesome! Cute and functional!
Everett stole the show as usual, crawling around to everyone's booths, making friends, and charming everyone. He did get tired of it though, 3 days is a loooong time, and John was SUCH a good sport to take care of Everett.
I am sporting one of the slings I made
So, I made lots of fun money, got to hang out with my brothers for 3 days, we went on a hike to taggart lake, we watched movies, but mostly talked, met a lot of really cool people at the craft show.
Will I do it again....I don't know. It was a LOT of work, crazy late nights, messy house, etc. It was fun, and cool to produce something that other people loved. That was fun :)

Looks awesome Court, great job! I bet that was a lot of work, I can't even imagine. So fun though, and fun to see your brothers.
Jackson is BEAUTIFUL, I miss being able to go there. In case you didn't know, Vegas is ugly.
COURTENAY! you are soooo talented! Seriously, I am sooo impressed with everything you did for that show and so proud of you. I want to buy one of those slings from you!
And EVERETT WAS CURSING!!? hahahaha
Those pictures are beautiful and I'm glad it was a fun time!
So super glad to read about part of your summer! Yipee for making some money and having fun at the same time. Everett is getting so tall! I laughed about him cursing too.
Your stuff for the Jackson show was uber-adorable! I bet it was the best booth there!
I'm curious though about Everett "cursing" up and down the deck.....
I'm trying to imagine sweet Everett-boy knowing any curse words at all!
Wowser that is alot of stuff! Lots of work! That is incredible! I'm so glad you sold so much stuff!!!!! It all looks sooooooo cute. And your set up was really cute! I'm glad you got to have so much fun with your bros. Love you!
