The youth at my church are doing a performance for what we call a "road show" - basically the kids from each congregation in the area put together a short, musical-type skit, and then we all get together to watch and enjoy. I'm helping out with costumes. It's a good thing my mom arrived this week, because I'm not sure if I would have been able to get it done otherwise.
We have a group of cheerleaders in our skit called the Lucky Charms, so I made them lucky horseshoe shirts, some old-school pom pom hair bands, and a megaphone prop. The shirts are kind of fun because I added glitter to the top coat of the stencil paint (these shirts are freezer paper stenciled) and attached some rhinestones using Elmer's Craft Bond Fabric and Paper Glue. They should really sparkle under the stage lights.
Phew. So glad these are done.
P.S. I'm having a baby TOMORROW. Wish me luck. :)

Every time you pop up on my google reader I wonder if it's to announce a baby. So hooray that this is the last false alarm. Good luck. Thanks for being great and letting us into your life a little bit.
I'm so excited for you! Good luck!!!
Have a great birth!

This is my first ever comment but I wanted to say you are such an inspiration and I just love your blog. Good luck tomorrow with your new bundle of love.
GOOD LUCK!!!!!
Congrats!
And the costumes look great! But you have the horseshoe upside down :/
At least here in Norway, if you hang the horseshoe that way, the luck runs out... I'm not superstitious about alot, but that has gotten stuck in my head :p
Happy Birthday to Ruby for tomorrow!
Can't wait to see your new beautiful bundle of joy!
Well wishes for everyone!
Good luck tomorrow!
I can't believe you are so creative and productive one day before the big event! You are such an inspiration. I'll be praying for you today! Happy birthday, Ruby!
Happy birthing day today!!! Hoping and praying everything is going well for your and your cute little family! A BIG welcome to little Ruby!
Thanks for all you do!
p.s. I didn't know anyone did roadshows anymore. They were SO fun growing up!
thinking of you this morning... can't wait to 'meet' her!
Love all your ideas Jill! I only know you from your blog (although, random, awhile ago I was reading through old posts and noticed that you're friends with my old roommate from BYU, Cara, and her husband Frank, strange small world), but I wanted to say good luck and congratulations on having your baby girl tomorrow! Can't wait to see pictures.
Hooray for Baby Girl! They are such perfectly formed, absolutely amazing miracles. Enjoy yours (after all that work that you'll do to get her, of course).
What a fun promise tomorrow will bring!
Jill, I wish you the best of luck with your beautiful baby girl! Hoping the delivery is safe, uncomplicated and a beautiful experience for your family!
ps love the Lucky Charms uniforms...I hope some of the girls are Colts fans! They'll be great "game-day" shirts!
July 8th is my birthday too! I'm proud to share it with Ruby! Can't wait to "meet" her!
