Church Bag #2

Before Mother's Day of this year I started a church bag for myself. When Mother's Day came along I put mine aside and made one for my mom. I finally picked mine up again and finished it! It was more complicated than the one I made for my mom and was never motivated enough to finish it until a couple weeks ago and now I'm finally making a post about it!

Here is the finished project:




The magnets on the pockets a extremely strong which makes the pockets hard to open which isn't my favorite, and I also accidently put the straps going the wrong way ha. Instead of one strap going on the front and one on the back I put one end of them on the front and hooked the otherside to the back so it doesn't sit quite right when you put it on your shoulder:(. Unfortunately I figured this out after I had sewed the lining into the bag and am too lazy to fix it! Other than that I love the end product. 

Labor Day

For most of the day Casey and I were just relaxing and enjoying the day off from work. I read on my kindle and Casey played his video games. We did go on a bikeride to a trail that we have always wondered where it goes. It is a little path off on your left as you are going from Spanish Fork into Salem. It wasn't a long trail at all and it was nice and shady. It ends in a weird spot and you just have to turn around but it was good to finally know what was out there. Unfortunately I'm horrible at taking pictures and don't have any to share:(.

We rode our bikes to the delicious snow cone shack on spanish main with icecream in them then with very full stomachs and a nauseous Sydney we headed back home.

After our bikeride we finally got ready for the day and headed to BYU campus to hit up some bowling. Did you know Mondays are half price? We didn't either and ended up playing five games of bowling between the two of us. Everyone missed out that couldn't come along with us! Casey and I were pretty evenly matched throughout the whole thing. First game I won 114 to 113, second game Casey won 101 to 100, third game we both didn't even break 100 and were different by two poins (Casey winning) and the 4th game we can't even remember the score ha but I won it. Casey said the last one was for all the marbles of the night. We made a deal that winner got a back massage and the loser had to do a dare. Casey won it 142 to 121, hey I put up a good fight! Now we just need to hold up on our deals. I wish I would have made Casey do a dare at the bowling ally, I had some pretty funny ones up my sleeve but forgot about it as I was walking out to the car. He's dodged a bullet this time!
