T-Shirt Frenzy

I burned the midnight oil well into the wee hours of twilight this morning. I had to finish the t-shirt project since the Buddy walk is Saturday. I had counted on the shirts I had ordered weeks ago but the people placed the order wrong and the order never came through. Ronan has 15 people on his Buddy Walk team and I'm thrilled. The first year we walked there was seven of us: my mom, myself, our friend Marye, Landon, Xander, Jadzia and Ronan.

Ronan was two months old at his first Buddy walk. The second year (last year) his team grew to ten people and now 15. I'm thrilled more people are showing Ronan support.

Since the t-shirt disaster I had to get the t-shirts made. After several other things falling through I designed the t-shirts using iron on transfers and sharpies. Not the most professional looking but it works. Here's is how my shirt turned out. The side with the picture is the front and the footprints are on the back.

I also incorporated a side project. I made Lalaloopsy shirts for Jadzia's upcoming birthday party. As anyone who has read my blogs knows she is a huge Lala fan. She always has at least one of her loopsies in tow (usually Princess Jewel). They help her coordinate tea parties and doll social events. They all sleep on the end of her bed and I have to tuck them in at night as well. They have their very own blanket.

She requested a lalaloopsy birthday party and I decided we would make t-shirts for her, Inara and their cousin Hannah. Jadzia of course got Princess Jewel, Inara got the new dutchess one, and Hananh picked out the school one.

Inara got the dutchess because that is her Daddy's nickname for her. He calls her his little dutchess. Her t-shirt read Inara the Dutchess. Inara loved her shirt. She is always stealing Jadzia's Lalaloopsy dolls. When I put the shirt on her she looked down and discovered what her shirt had on it. She pointed at it and got a huge grin. Below is her reaction to her shirt discovery.

Besides t-shirt decorating school for me is now in full swing. I had art class tonight. I am thrilled because my teacher said if all you can draw is stick figures you'll leave this class being able to truly draw. Besides that class I have creative writing , per-algebra , Physics and medical terminology. I'm excited to really get into my classes.
