creative juice {green}

on friday night, we had an adult only ward party!! it was so much fun!! it was a progressive dinner that was awesome! at the dewitt's house, our last stop and where we had dessert (yum) brett and brooke martin were trying to get people to jump into the pool for money!! ummm....hello! that has my name written all over it! brett said he'd give me $50 if i jumped in then another $50 if jonathan did!! i was so ready...jonathan said i would be walking home if i did. so, no pool. womp, womp. i'll totally still jump in the pool in a second (for money, ok for fun too)!! anyway, about the creative juice. i've been so wrapped up in so many things, i've been neglecting my idea notes and making of little crafts and treats. but after visiting a trip to the cotter's house and seeing judy's magnificently eclectic sitting room, my creative juices are flowing! (the juices i picture are green, what else?) so, after emily and steven's wedding (niece and soon to be nephew-in-law?) i will actively be trying to use up all my fabric! i think i posted this before, but i will be finishing an apron i've been working on for my sister and hopefully make one for myself (also green.) i think i will be trying to mimic a super cute one from anthropologie that my niece got today at her bridal shower. if anyone has any other cute, crafty things or patterns send them my way!
p.s. i have insomnia. anyone have any remedies?
p.p.s. anyone have anything in green; fabric, paper, buttons, etc.? i welcome your leftovers! (not forest green!!)

Good luck w/ the upcoming "green" projects.
I'm so excited for Katelyn's dress:)

p.s. you are one crazy monkey to jump in a pool in Feb. But i think for money i would have considered ti as well :)

Insomnia remedy . . . 1/2 unisom and 1/2 benadryl. Take 1/2 hour before you retire. Doesn't make you too groggy in the a.m. and hopefully gets you through the night. I've had insomnia for 14 + years, big time!! I still use that "cocktail" most of the time.
