Hair-do Guru

Okay so I know I never really post anything about fashion or style....pretty much because I have little knowledge of either. However I am obsessed with all things pertaining to hair! If you know me you know I change my hair style and color like I change...well maybe MORE than I change other things :) LOL! I found this great blog with a ton of awesome hair how-tos and I had to share...TheSmallThingsBlog.

I love this Elegant Half-up Do.

Un-Tangle me, please!

So since my last post I have... Made my fist wedding cake, shot pictures for said wedding, taken a trip to Florida (during which our car broke down), planned and directed our church fall festival and with some help from mom...finally finished the Rapunzel dress!

So here is the fruit of my baking labor. I can't lie...I am really proud of this cake. And I must say it was one of the least stressful cakes I have made. No cake-crisis.

Okay and let me take a moment to defend myself here: I went against all that is in my procrastinating self and started this Rapunzel dress at the beginning of September, but time has a way of creeping up on me and next thing I know I am still sewing trim on this thing the night before our fall festival. I do have to send out a big thank you to my lovely mother who took a few days to work on the dress while we were delayed in Florida with a broken down car.

But in the end I must say that my mom was right it was all worth that happy face :)


 In the midst of all the fabric flying around the kitchen (aka: the sewing room) I remembered that I had a another child that needed a costume. No I am just kidding, I was planning on dressing Ryker like the hero Flynn Ryder from the Tangled movie, but I decided that my sleep (and sanity) was more important than coordinating outfits. Ryker received this super hero get-up for his birthday.

Melodic Monday...and a message :)

Ever heard the story of the prodigal son? Listen to the story Jesus told:

11And he said, A certain man had two sons: 12And the younger of them said to his father, Father, give me the portion of goods that falleth to me. And he divided unto them his living. 13And not many days after the younger son gathered all together, and took his journey into a far country, and there wasted his substance with riotous living. 14And when he had spent all, there arose a mighty famine in that land; and he began to be in want. 15And he went and joined himself to a citizen of that country; and he sent him into his fields to feed swine. 16And he would fain have filled his belly with the husks that the swine did eat: and no man gave unto him. 17And when he came to himself, he said, How many hired servants of my father's have bread enough and to spare, and I perish with hunger! 18I will arise and go to my father, and will say unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and before thee, 19And am no more worthy to be called thy son: make me as one of thy hired servants. 20And he arose, and came to his father. But when he was yet a great way off, his father saw him, and had compassion, and ran, and fell on his neck, and kissed him. 21And the son said unto him, Father, I have sinned against heaven, and in thy sight, and am no more worthy to be called thy son. 22But the father said to his servants, Bring forth the best robe, and put it on him; and put a ring on his hand, and shoes on his feet: 23And bring hither the fatted calf, and kill it; and let us eat, and be merry:24For this my son was dead, and is alive again; he was lost, and is found. And they began to be merry. Luke 15:11-24

Do you feel like you've been living and starving in the pig pin? There is always bread at the Father's house. Turn back to Him and He will run to you too.
