What Did We Do All Summer?

Happy Birthday Bre!

Oh my goodness I haven't posted in so long!  This one is for you mom!  I think anyone and everyone else has probably given up on looking at my blog.  There is just so much going on all the time that blogging comes last.  I'll have to work on a little summer update post. Isn't Bre so cute?  She is growing up way too fast for me and becoming such a young lady.

I finally finished my 2011 family album and sent it off to be printed!  Horray!!!

What a Good Day

I had a nice birthday thanks to a loving family and friends.

First I got to go on a date with my hubby to the Acappella Supershow at the Scera Shell Outdoor theater. It was reminiscent of our dating days when we had season tickets together. They had BYU's Vocal Point, the all girl group Delilah and from NBC's the Sing-off, Pentatonix!  They were great!  That was Monday night.

Then I got to start my birthday with some Kneaders's French toast with my hubby. It's so rich and sweet that it's only for special occasions.  Mmmm, my favorite!

Went through a normal workday with payroll and all that stuff.  Then for the evening we went to The Shops at Riverwoods and had Macaroni Grill for dinner.  The the kids got to play in the water for a fun almost summer evening.

Then we checked out the Provo Beach Resort there.  There were all kinds of activities that we had no idea were right there.  The kids played on the mega playground while we played a game of bowling.  There is a ropes course, crocket, arcade stuff, a wave pool and more!

Bowling scores not worth mentioning but it was fun.

There's even a carousel!

Now fOr the bEsT cAke EvEr...
My wAterMeloN cAke!

We had already has so much rich foods that a cake out of watermelon sounded really good so we carved it up and voila!  I think it would be great for the 4th of July too!

Happy Easter!

Our Spring Break

For the first time ever we did a full week of spring break and spent it on this amazing cruise ship. So here are my first few pages I got done.  More to come...

Latest Projects

 My Easter visiting teacher gifts (some cute spring emery boards and hand sanitizer I found at shopko). The ribbon and tags are Stampin' Up of course. 

I made Bre a cute knit skirt.  I got a bunch of different knits and am going to make all of my girls some fun skirts for everyday wear.  I found lots of tutorials where you don't even need a pattern and I pinned them on  Pinterest. 

Meet Rex

Rex is the new guinea pig.  Addie has begged for a pet for a long time.  We made a deal with her that if she could learn to put her contacts in and take them out all by herself and be more responsible then we would get a small pet.  So the girls adore him.  He is quite a cute little guy but also quite the poo factory!

Happy St Patrick's Day

Baby Bliss

Today was Tallie's baby girl shower.  I had so much fun putting this together.  Here's a peak at some of the fun things.

 Loved the idea of the diaper cake center piece.  So I had to make one.  These are just rolled up diapers put together in the shape of a layered cake.  So the decoration doubles as a gift!

 Personalized thank you favors.  I made the stickers in PSE and punched them out with a 3/4" punch.  I just love these.

I made the banner out of  little onesies.  So the decoration doubles as a gift once again!  It says "Baby Girl".  It was hard to get a good picture against the window because of back lighting but you get the idea.   

 Invitations were a pocket card.

I am so excited for Tallie to have a little girl and so glad I got to do this for her.  Everyone had a great time. We had a diaper raffle.  Everyone that brought a pkg of diapers got to put in a raffle ticket.  We drew names for the prizes.  The prizes included a gift card to Khol's and a gift card to Cold Stone.  Some other prizes were little bundles of cards that I made.  Thanks to everyone who brought food.  It was so wonderful!
