Out for a scenic drive. A pretty view with a pretty princess.

In September I started my Thirty-One Gifts career! I wish I had made this decision years ago! I am loving what I do and loving the rewards that come from working with a company that empowers women! Check out my website.

Super

Ryker is sporting the red cape for a second day in a row. I see a budding new fascination with all things "Super".

Blue...Forty-two...

I love this boy, and he loves football. And his love for football goes way deeper than most two-year-olds. When he gets a football in his hands he prances around (his own version of a quarterback route) and shouts " Blue...Forty-two..Set...HIKE" and then throws the ball with all his strength! It is so adorable, in that boy-ish, pigskin lovin' way. 

P.S. This should come as no surprise, but I just wanted to let everyone know that he has chosen a Gator Football party to celebrate his 3rd birthday at the end of this month.

something old

I have been contemplating selling my wedding dress. I pulled it out today to see if it was still in good shape. Cheyenne lit up the second she saw it. She begged me to let her try it on. I agreed and though it swallowed her she looked so cute I had to take some pictures. She melted my heart when she asked if I would please save this dress for her wedding. Needless to say, that made up my mind :)

ribbons and bows

   I probably would be a much better blogger if it weren't for Pinterest. If you know me at all you have heard of my tremendous love for this crafters dream of a website. If you can imagine a craft they have it. If you have trash that needs to be transformed into treasure Pinterest can show you how to do it. I could go on and on about the sweet bond I share with sweet ol' Pinterest :)

   Here is the latest Pinterest project I have done. My sister-in-law has recently started making hair bows. Of course she has been sharing her goodies with my bow crazed, girly girl. Bows have begun to take over Cheyenne's dresser and bath room. Pinterest came to the rescue when I stumbled upon a picture of a re-purposed frame turned bow holder.

I just so happen to have an old frame on hand that I had found at a yard sale for $5.

A little paint, some ribbon and dressing up and...voila!

Cheyenne's new bow holder:)

(By the way, these are only half of the new bows Cheyenne has.)
