OCTOBER - Fall is here!

It's been 5 months since my last post. And it's NOT that I haven't done anything since May - but mainly because I've been too busy. 

 

 

FIRST OFF - JULY - we had a DLS company picnic spent at SEA LIFE PARK. My kids enjoyed themselves - as I did as well. (It's been awhile since I've been out in the sun for that long!) 

 

 

 

Catching up with my CROCHETING.... Yoda hat for hubby and a cap for IAN bear.

 A baby blanket and 2 hats for Sam's baby boy who will be born soon - like maybe NOW!!.

Sometime in September - for a FEW of us - we celebrated the August birthday babies - at a luncheon at MAX's of Manila Restaurant. It was fun!

White Chocolate oreo Favors - for the Leo zodiac birthday gals

Napkin folded cards for the 3 birthday girls

Collage of all the fun we had for our outing.

Spent some time with my BFF's from my "hanna butta" days. We celebrated Deliah's & Lou's (my cuz) 23rd (ha ha) Birthday at 53 by the Sea. (formaly JOHN DOMONIS). It was GREAT! Pricey but worth it!

 

All SMILES after our first experience using a BIDET

Birthday girls blowing out their candles! (make a wish!)

POSING... poor waiter took our pics inside and outside of the restaurant.

the NOM NOM's we ate... oooh they were tasty!... but oh so SMALL! (no rice!)


LAST BUT NOT LEAST - We are having a FAREWELL party at Tsukiji's on 10/6//13 ..3 of our valued employees are leaving the CORE lab ohana!

2 cards - zig zag fold?

 Favors - simple but to the point! haha

 

 

Double Baby Shower!

Thought I'd share some of the crafts I made for the Double Baby Shower we had today for  Bing & Nancy at Old Spaghetti Factory. It turned out pretty good, although we RUSHED the games...a little... I'm glad everyone had fun. Both gals are having BOYS in January 2013! Congrats to them both. They'll both be great mothers.

The prizes - had some leftover clothes pins - made them into magnets

The Centerpieces were tissue covers and I made these diaper cakes for the gals
Can't see it clearly - but crochet a hat and baby bunting, and sewed (yes you heard me -sewed) some flannel pieces onto some burp clothes.

The Favor - snack popcorn/lollipop and our Guess the Baby game (that was fun)

I haven't been to OLD Spaghetti Factory since the 90'z...and the food was just as good as I remembered. Although I kinda wanted to order the Italian Soda!!! Darn... well I'm forcing my hubby to bring me next time.. (won't take no for answer!)

It was a such a nice party - it was therapeutic to get together with my co-workers in a NON-STRESSFUL environment!
And I'm on a short vacay! YAY!
 

Best Wishes - Cybil (wait did I spell it wrong?)

A great co-worker and wonderful person is leaving our company once again.
Just wanted to share the card that I created for her. It's made with a brown paper bag and some designer paper etc. I hope she liked it. It was pretty neat working with her and only wish her the very best for the future!!

 

 

I was off for a week - and I had the NEED to crochet... I crochet quite a bit that week. I made several of these headbands. Aren't they cute? - wish I had daughters.. hmmm... maybe Ian shall wear one for me? ha ha
