It's All About Us: October 2010
http://crissie-party-of-6.blogspot.com/2010_10_01_archive.html
Thursday, October 21, 2010. Not tired of it yet…. My youngest son (Jared) asked me last night if I get bored doing the same thing over and over. He was referring to me crocheting. I told him that I only get bored when I’m about half way done with a project and so I start looking around for what’s next. I went to my local library branch looking for some books on crochet and picked up this book. And was quite intrigued by the motif on this hat. And so I grabbed some yarn and struggled through the directions.

It's All About Us: Vintage Travel Trailer Woes
http://crissie-party-of-6.blogspot.com/2013/02/vintage-travel-trailer-woes.html
Friday, February 15, 2013. Vintage Travel Trailer Woes. When you buy a 40 year old travel trailer you'd better expect to do some work. Maybe I was lying to myself about how much work would need to go into Lola the Love Shack to get her where I wanted her to be. Or to be more accurate, to get her to where SHE needed to be. This was the beginning of the tear down at the front dinette. Is there supposed to be something covering this hole on the roof? I kept saying that I was just going to do the minimum and...

Sunday, August 21, 2011. Montana Vacation Part Deux. Once we left the cabin, we headed to Kalispell. We spent several days at Marcie’s house. One of those days we headed to Big Mountain in White Fish. Jason missed out on our trip because he had another golf day planned with a friend. You can just make out the ski trails in the mountain ahead. And this is the picture of them from the lift I was riding on. It’s me, Jessica and Parker. Aren’t we brave riding with the safety bar up? This is looking down at p...

It's All About Us: Vintage Travel Trailer Makeover!
http://crissie-party-of-6.blogspot.com/2013/09/vintage-travel-trailer-makeover.html
Tuesday, September 10, 2013. Vintage Travel Trailer Makeover! This post has been a long time in coming. The sad part is that I haven't done much work on my trailer since it started getting hot here in Phoenix. So be aware that there are still no running lights/tail lights installed, nor are the tires replaced, bearings repacked, or any batteries purchased to power the Love Shack off grid. Remember the way she looked before? Dinette with ratty old curtains and icky 1970's paneling. Here is what the table ...

It's All About Us: January 2012
http://crissie-party-of-6.blogspot.com/2012_01_01_archive.html
Saturday, January 7, 2012. Am I still considered a blogger? If one does not blog with any consistency, is that person still considered a blogger? I should try to get in here more often and start posting again. I'm looking forward to this last year before the world ends (as far as the Mayans are concerned). I've just started at a new salon and will have the option of working more now that I do not have to share my station anymore. Yay! Happy New Year everyone! Avoiding housework to blog - Crissie.

Sunday, November 28, 2010. Thanksgiving is such a wonderful holiday. I might even go so far as to say it is my favorite, but because my sons aren’t ever here with me for Thanksgiving, it defaults to my second favorite. I thought I’d list a few of the things I’m most thankful for:. A loving and forgiving Savior. Being married to my best friend. My husband’s 2 daughters. A silky cat named Elvis. A home where we feel comfortable. A nation where we are free. My loverly hexie blanket (ala Lucy at Attic24.

It's All About Us: Rebuilding a 1972 Aristocrat Travel Trailer
http://crissie-party-of-6.blogspot.com/2013/03/rebuilding-1972-aristocrat-travel.html
Tuesday, March 12, 2013. Rebuilding a 1972 Aristocrat Travel Trailer. You can read the 1st post here. And the 2nd post here. Of my vintage 1972 Aristocrat Land Star travel trailer. After tearing my old travel trailer apart, the hard work really began. I am not a carpenter, I am a nail tech. Lucky for me that Jason has some awesome tools. Yes, I'm a lucky girl. I loved being outside working on this trailer. Every new piece of wood that I put up fueled my excitement for this project. I can do this! I then ...

It's All About Us: July 2011
http://crissie-party-of-6.blogspot.com/2011_07_01_archive.html
Wednesday, July 27, 2011. Our Montana Vacation (part 1). We got to escape the heat of the the Phoenix valley for a little while this summer. Almost 2 whole weeks. We left the last week of June on a Thursday night and drove straight through like we always do. I have to say that the last 6 hours of our 21 hour drive are almost painful. I took lots of photos of my view from the front seat of the truck. Love the green hills up ahead. It’s Tina (Fat Lard). These folks also had some miniature horses. There use...
