Who am I voting for??

Ok if you are headed to the polls to vote, and you are stumped as to who to vote for here are my picks. Now I live in District 6 and Legislative District 22, so you might have different canidates depending on your district. So let start at the top and work our way down.

Senator: JD Hayworth
*JD is not my favorite but their is NO WAY McCain can be re-elected!!! He has been in for way to long and I believe to fix our state we must start with immigration, McCain has been for Amnesty http://www.alipac.us/article531.html but all the sudden (so he can get re-elected) he acts like he wants to secure the border!!! Well several years to late "my friend".

District 6 Congressman: Jeff Smith
*Jeff Flake has been in for awhile now and his time is up. He claims to have fought against spending and against amnesty but I haven't seen much proof. Sorry we need real results, and if Smith doesn't deliver than out with him at the next election.

Governor: By default, Jan Brewer
*I'm not going to lie, I wanted Dean Martin but he and Buzz pulled from the race to support Jan, because she is fighting the good fight with SB1070.

State Senator: Easy one, Andy Biggs
*I'm very impressed with him. I have gone to meetings and heard him talk and he is a TRUE conservative and is working hard to stop spending =)

State Rep for District 22: (you can choose 2) Laurin Hendix and Eddie Farnsworth

State Treasurer: Leah's vote, Barbara Leff, Tea Party's vote, Thayer Verschoor
*I heard all those who are running speak and I really really liked Barbara Leff. Thayer was good too, but this one I voted with my gut and went with Barbara

The Dreaded Attorney General: I'm not going to tell you who to vote for. Their has been a nasty fight between Andrew Thomas and Tom Horne. I have NO idea who is telling the truth and who I would like to represent our state. This is an important position so I'm upset they both seem un-fit for the job.

State Superintendent: Margaret Dugan
* I heard her and John Huppenthal speak more than once and Huppenthal rubbed me the wrong way. He has no experience in the classroom. Margaret started out as a school teacher, principal, etc...and worked her way to the top, so she understands what it is like for teachers. Huppenthal is also in favor of Obama's STUPID plan "Race to the Top"....more federal money.

Corporation Commissioner: (choose 2) Brenda Burns and Gary Pierce

County Attorney: Bill Montgomery

Ok their you go. Hope that helps and Happy Voting!!! If you need to know where to go vote here is the link to help you. But shame on you for not figuring this out already!!!

Getting ready for baby!

Well it has bee to long since I have posted on this blog. I have been doing my crafts still, just not good about posting them. So I love sewing and I LOVE QUILTS!!! Holy cow, if they weren't so darn expensive to do, I would be making them all the time. This little quilt I made was not actually quilted on a big fancy machine, but I did put together the top of the quilt. I found 5 patriotic fabric I could resist. Especially the fabric that says Republican all over it =)
I just backed it with red minky. It turned out so cute and I can't wait to lay my little patriotic man on it. Those are Amelia lovely knees we see on it.
I LOVED this fabric I saw online and had to order it. I'm glad someone came up with these new privacy covers.
Then I kept Amelia's infant car seat and of course bought her a pink one, so I took the pink cover off, took it apart so I had a pattern to make a new one with. I decided to make a brown, soft minky cover. It turned out pretty good. I hope to make another one soon. More project to come soon =)

Fabric Quiet Book

Seriously I love being a mom of small ones because stuff like this I can't get enough of. I saw this cute quiet book on a blog a month or so ago and had to make one. It is very easy just lots of sewing, so I worked on it a little each day.

Started with diging through my fabrics and ribbon to find odds and ends of all the colors. I did have to buy a few fat quarters and the ric-rack.

I used wonder-under on the back of the fabric for the letters, then I used my Sizzix to die cut the the letters.






I forgot to take a picture of the black page, but you get the idea =)

I have a crop-a-dile tool and punched a little hole in the corner, then put and eyelet in, get a book ring and now I have an adorable quiet book. Even my 4 year old son likes it because he spells out the words.

Happy crafting!!

Ruffles and Buttons

I know, I know another dress you say but sorry.......I can't stop!! This is another twist to the t-shirt dress' I've been making. Ruffles = Happiness to me and I would put them on everything if people wouldn't think I'm a nutcase.

I also just finished Millers, Easter dress which sort of looks like a prom dress form the 80's but she it is to young to care, thank goodness because she is wearing that dress. It wasn't the easiest thing I have sew, but great practice =)

Call Your Rep. to Stop Health Care

March 01, 2010 By: patriot Category: Action Items, Health care

Please call the Arizona Delegates listed on Dick Morris’s site. According to Mr. Morris:

“We don’t believe that there is any chance of stopping Obama’s renewed push for his horrible health care changes in the Senate. Harry Reid is going to use the reconciliation procedure to jam it through with 51 votes – and he will get them. All the hype about how difficult it will be is to distract us from the real battle which will come in the House.There, where every member faces re-election, it will be a lot harder for Pelosi to round up the vote she needs. Last time she passed health care by 220-215. This time, a lot of the Democrats who voted for health care are going to be so worried about re-election that they might be induced to jump ship.”

PLEASE CALL!DC OFFICELOCAL OFFICE
Harry Mitchell(202) 225-2190(480) 946-2411
Gabrielle Giffords(202) 225-2542(520) 881-3588
Ann Kirkpatrick(202) 225-2315(928) 226-6914

All the above officials are Democrats, they need to hear our voices!! Please Call!!
