Swirly Twirly
I made a new shirt. I started with just a basic white tee and then I ripped strips from an old dress I loved but never wore. Then we (mostly just my mom) sewed the strips (slightly gathered) on with a zig-zag stitch. I designed the swirl pattern and even put my trademark d. on the back. I think it turned out pretty cute and now I want to make a BYU one I can wear to the games!
The Hostest with the Mostest
Well with school beginning, my blogs have suffered. BUT fear not I am back and ready to post.
So this past week I hosted my very first legit party. I have thrown a shindig here and there but nothing to this extent. I am pleasantly pleased with the way it turned out. It was Caity's 21st birthday so naturally it was Vegas themed.
We strung up lights and had candles everywhere to create a "lounge" feel. 
Derek came down in a suit and tie, and was our bartender. It was so much fun to have him at the party and he was such a HUGE help. He made delicious mocktails including margaritas, Pina coladas, daiquiri and shots of flavored club soda. 
Dylan was an excellent blackjack dealer. Many people at the party were shocked because he was winning almost the entire time. I think he liked that. 
Dyl and Derek were definitely the hit of the party. They made it the awesome party it was. I was really suprised 1. how many people showed up and 2. how many of those people showed up in the CLASSY atire that was requested. For a mid week party it was off the hook. It was a lot of work, but a lot of fun. I feel like I can really put the Stout name on this one. My mom would be so proud.
