Monday is Over, Hello Tuesday!

Something about Mondays..

hard to get back to productivity after

a fun weekend at the nearby

Hidden Hills neighborhood parade.

How thankful I am for my cup of coffee..

Tuesday is here and I'm ready.

I have lots of things to do, to prep for our trip

to Utah to visit family and my

husband is playing a concert.

This will be the first time

flying with the baby Knox...

who now is about 15 months old.

I think it would be much easier if he

were alittle baby still, now he's a wild little man! :)

Amelie our little girl who is now 3,

has flown many many times.

What makes the most nervous

about this trip is the return

flight I will be flying home by

myself with both kids! Yikes!

This is when a nanny would

come in handy

(maybe someday when we can afford it).

Thinking ahead of being at the airport

with a 3yr old and 1 yr old, luggage,

carry-ons, potty breaks, diaper changes..etc.

I will need free hands and lugging a stroller

is just too much, I purchased a Ergo baby carrier.

I've heard amazing things about this carrier.

All the other I had suck and got rid of them.

They were uncomfortable, and hurt my back.

My sis has always used the Ergo

and can be worn front and back, and she's a small

skinny girl, and carries her almost 2yr old in it.

So once we get to Utah, and after my husband

plays the concert at the Big Ass Show

on Oct. 8th he leaves right after

to start the U.S. Fall Tour.

I'm staying behind a few extra days to visit friends

and hit up the amazing thrift

stores and craft stores there.

Then I will come back to

meet up with him for his

one day home and then he has a show kinda

near us at the Ventura Theater.

After that he will be off again!

Sad to say this year he will gone for Halloween,

which is not the first he's been gone for.

Those who know me, know I love Halloween.

I will still make it fun for the kids,

probably a Halloween party at Grandma's house.

~~

Right now, I'm home alone too with the kids,

while hubby is touring Indonesia

and Australia.

I'm not complaining,

but it does get hard at times.

It gets hard for him too.

As much fun he's having and living his dream,

he's away from us, and I can't even

imagine what that would be like

to be away from the kiddos for weeks at a time.

I went to NY a couple weeks

ago to meet up with him.

I left the kids with my mom,

and even though I had a blast,

by the end of the

3 day trip I totally missed the kids...

So that's another catch up as to what

we have been up to here

in the Weekes household.

I'm also working hard to get a

craft space set-up again for me,

get a new sewing machine

(mine broke, it was super old),

and get my NEW Etsy baby/kid

boutique shop up and running.

My partner in the creation of this

new shop is my mom Saturdayfinds.

Our shop will be called SassyClassyBaby,

and here's a sneak preview of our shop banner:

coming soon!!

Have a great day, ox

The End to a Great Weekend

Hope you all had a great weekend!

I found a few goodies at yard sales

I was very excited about.

First thing was this

gorgeous Antique GWTW

(Gone with the Wind) style lamp!

If I had somewhere to put it, I would

be keeping it- but instead I posted it

for sale in my Ebay shop Swinginkitten

so check it out it's a beauty

and needs a good home :)

I also found these salt and pepper shakers that

are marked USA, but I haven't quite figured

what pottery co. they are from yet? hmmm

What do you think?

Oh and last but not least this adorable

Antique doll buggy! So precious!

Now how could I pass on this?

I will be posting it for sale too,

so I will keep you posted when I do.

Well kids are in bed and

it's time alone with my hubby.

Got to get in as much alone time

with him as possible before he leaves

on tour again for 3 weeks.

Thanks for coming by, I love to hear your

feedback so please leave comments. ~

THE WINNERS

and the winners are....

ALYSSA MAZZEI and EMMA MING

thanks everybody who entered

this was fun, I will for sure

do this again! ox

Giveaway Closed-- Winners will be announced today!

The Giveaway was a major success!

Wow! Thanks everybody for entering.

Originally I had 985 twitter followers,

and was going to end the giveaway when

I reached 1000 followers, but you guys

were amazing and I with all your

work I reached it within in minutes!

So as most of you read my tweet,

I extended the giveaway for the whole

day yesterday to give those fans who

didn't get a chance to even know

I was having a giveaway enter.

Since I changed the rules, I decided to

giveaway not one Brobecks

"Violent Things" cd, but two!

So there will be two winners,

and I will announce them later today.

Thanks again all you Brobecks,

Panic!, Dallon..and Weekes Family fans

you guys rock..we love you! ox

My First Giveaway!! The Brobecks "Violent Things" CD

This will be my first Giveaway here on my blog.

Now I always thought I would have my giveaway

be something relating to one of my craft creations

or some vintage goodies I've collected. But in honor

of my twitter reaching almost 1000 followers, mostly

due of course to fans of my husband Dallon Weekes' band The Brobecks

or his most recent postion as bass player in Panic! At The Disco,

I will be giving away an ACTUAL copy on

The Brobecks album "Violent Things".

It's available on itunes, but I know many

fans in other countries don't have it available to them, or some just want

an actual copy for their collection. These were only sold at

live Brobecks show, so very rare to come by.

This is a worldwide giveaway,

I will send it to the winner where

ever you may live! :)

---------> Oh did I mention Dallon will autograph it!<-------

personally to you if you want.

This is what we have been up to...

So this past couple months the band my

husband is in has been doing alot of

tv appearances and performances after the release

of the new albumVices and Virtues,

and prepping for their upcoming tours.

He played on Conan, which has been a

dream of his for ever since I've known him.

If you watch the video he's the bass player

who at the end of the performance when

Conan come out to say hi, my husband gets really

excited and makes it known on camera.

The other guests that night were Jake Gyllenhaal

and Randy Jackson from American Idol.

Needless to say I had to get a pic with Jake- who would pass that up?

The funny thing is that is was just me and Jake

posing for the pic, and at the last second my husband

slipped ion for the picture!!

They played the George Lopez show too,

which was really fun.

It was like a party backstage,

and the performance sounded awesome,

and we got to see/meet tons of celebs;

Russell Brand, Tracey Morgan,

Rainn Wilson(Dwight on The Office),

Lil' Jon (Celebrity Apprentice).

Lil' John was stoked on the band and posed for pics with them!

They also played MTV's The Seven...

So it's been a fun and busy past couple months..

and this is just the beginning.

He leaves for the Europe tour the end of April,

and goes right from there to the

U.S. tour, so he will be gone till the end of June!

Of course in between I will visit

him, and actually planning to go to

the NY show and most likely Vegas.

But he won't be here for his birthday, my birthday,

our daughter's 3rd birthday, our son's 1st birthday,

mother's day and father's day!!

It's bitter sweet...we've been waiting for this all our lives together,

but it still comes with sacrifices. :)

My Husband Performs LIVE TODAY FRIDAY 5PM PST MTV

TUNE IN TODAY, FRIDAY- LIVE 5PM PST ON MTV's show THE SEVEN
PANIC! AT THE DISCO !!! MY HUSBAND PLAYS BASS GUITAR :)

Busy Busy

Wow so much to update you on.

Been so busy with the kids and

my hubby aka Rockstar.

He has been flying in and out of

town alot lately with the band.

Playing promo shows

for the new album- which

means I'm home alone with

the kids, so blogging gets

pushed to the bottom of

my to do list.

I notice too that since

I have moved back to

California, I keep so busy,

I forget to find time

to blog. Also I started another type of blog

on Tumblr, which I post more on.

I started one on there to post more info

about my husband Dallon and the band

Panic! At The Disco, he's in,

and post pics for fans.

To sum up the past few months..

well..our baby boy is now 9 mos. old!

Our little girl will be 3 in June and the boy

will be 1yrs old!

We had our 5 yr anniversary

this past March 18th.

My hubby was out of town

playing at SXSW in Texas,

but we celebrated it

when he returned at the

W Hotel in Hollywood..ALONE.

Love the kids of course

but it was nice to be alone,

and my first time away from

both kids, alone with hubby.

We had a great time and then

the following evening the band

he plays bass in... Panic! At The Disco,

played a show on the rooftop club

of The W Hotel.

sponsored by Stride Gum.

So we got alot of free gum and lots of

other goodies too!

Oh ya..ha ha..my husband is a fan of Dennis Quaid..well in an

odd way he has something called "The Quaid Curse", ever since

I've known him. It's a long story to explain it in detail..but

he actually got to meet him in Austin,TX at SXSW.

I'm Dreaming of a Pink Christmas...

Hope you all had a sweet Pink Saturday.

Although I didn't get around
to posting for Pink Saturday,
because I'm kept VERY busy
with my two little ones..



I'm here sharing my Pink Saturday
goodies with you on
this lovely Sunday morning!

Since being back in California,
and enjoying the so-called
"winter" weather here,
with almost endless sunny days..
I've been able to team up again
with my crafting partner
and mom Saturdayfinds.


I don't have much of a crafting studio
set-up in my place yet, so I sneak off
to her place and ignite my
creativity among all her
yummy crafting supplies!


Here's some of our crafting
collaborations we came up with
and are also available for
sale in her Etsy Shop!

Thanks for coming by,
may all your dreams be pink!

Bake Sale for Haiti

This past weekend I helped
my good friend with her Bake Sale.

She's raising money for the costs
to ship donations to Haiti.


She's been there before, and will be returning
early next year to help with
a documentary and personally
deliver the donations she has collected.
She works at Fred Segal Beauty
in Santa Monica, CA
as spa/salon manager and they
were kind enough to let her hold her bake sale there.


I was the one of the many
who made a homemade treat
to donate to sell at the sale.



I made my famous Oreo Meltaways.

They are oh so yummy!
I bagged them, and fancied them up a bit
in the color theme for the sale.
They were a hit, among the other goodies,
and the sale was a success!
