My Weekend: See Rock City & Baby Project

I had grand plans this morning to write and tell you all about the hammock I made last weekend. Then it rained and then I forgot to take pictures when the sun came back out. So you'll just have to wait until Friday to see that awesomeness! :-)

Meanwhile, I had a wonderful relaxing weekend filled with  friends, rocks, and sewing.

Saturday the hubby and I headed up to Rock City to enjoy some amazing views and some really furry animals. This is fun place! The views are incredible! Yet it is really expensive, I recommend bringing a lunch and games and make it day trip. If you keep walking the entire thing it take about 2 hours straight (that is SLOW walking, too) - and when you pay $20 per person - that ends up a little pricey in my book (but we do have a year-long membership, so we are free every time we go :-) . Here are some cool pictures from the day.

Check out those views!

They even have these cool passages!

American Eagle!!

Some kind of owl - it was full size and super cute!

And what would be a weekend if I didn't have a project? This weekend I wanted a quick little project. So I picked up my One Yard Wonders book and found the infant flyaway jacket. And... I made it! This did take longer than expected - but I am really bad at putting bias tape on outfits. Practice makes perfect, right?

Believe it or not this is the first thing I have made for our baby due the first week in November! I feel like I just opened a can of worms. While I was at it, I found a pattern on Pinterest for these cute little kimono shoes, too!

I hope you had an amazing and relaxing weekend too!

P.S. Did I mention that I re-decorated our bedroom this weekend? Nesting is starting to hit me (a little early isn't it?) - get ready to see the results on Wednesday!
