Utah

packed for UtahAll packed up for Utahalite cardsflyingIMG_9468IMG_9469IMG_9471
There was a lot of interesting things going on in the desert while we were flying. Utah is hot but not humid which is nice. I'm actually sitting outside under a tree in the grass outside the convention center wearing a dress, something I've been missing all summer, heat! We have everything set up and tomorrow is the first day of the show! I'll be learning how to sell and I'll have pictures of the booth in action tomorrow. For now here are some random shots from our day chilling around Salt Lake City.

Plants and food

Had a pretty relaxing weekend although the sun has still not come out from hiding : ( Webber kitty misses the sun too... But I'm glad the eggplant plant has no problem with the gloom! Check out that awesome looking flower that just bloomed! I'm so excited!! and the tomato plants are gaining height too. All in all this weekend it seems all I did was make some tasty food, did some crafts, slept in (a lot) and visited Oakland for good times at a birthday party. Just waiting for summer to maybe come around.

The booth that has consumed the majority of my time at Alite is finally looking complete, the top photo is the most finished but we still have to place the products and make sure it all looks good before we take it all down to ship it and rebuild it in Utah! haha so it's still got a ways to go but I'm feeling more relaxed.

We have all caught sewing fever since our sewing class, I made a computer case and a simple circle scarf (yet to be pictured):
my new computer case!

We made s'mores during our weekly bbq today:
