For the last few weeks I have been working on a few projects. Most of the projects are for my vacation and a birthday costume for my nephew. I going to Atlanta tomorrow to visit my mom and my sisters for two birthdays, a graduation, and just fun family time.
Last month my mom called me and told me her plans for her birthday, she want to go to the Renaissance Festival.

I also made two new dresses to wear, one that will be great for my nephew's birthday party theme....
