Sugar and Spice Baby Shower

I had the lovely opportunity to throw a baby shower with my oldest sister Lindsey for my twinner Kelsey. We decided to go with the theme of "Sugar and Spice and Everything Nice." It was so much fun and I'll be honest made me super baby hungry! I am so excited to become an Aunt again, and even more excited to meet baby Mia. Yay for baby girls!

Here are some highlights from the shower, it really did turn out super cute!

We had a headband making station to add to this little girl's SPARKLE! So no matter where she goes she will leave a little sparkle! All of the headbands turned out so different and so cute! 





I had so much fun making a fabric garland (and it totally matches Mia's bedding made by Nana Cunningham). It has floral fabric, gold triangle fabric, lilac fabric, gold glitter ribbon, gold and cream polka-dot fabric. It turned out so cute, I am quite proud (not to sound conceited or anything). 

For food we wanted to stick with the "Sugar and Spice" theme. So I made pumpkin bars, Lindsey made pumpkin cupcakes with what I hear, to die for frosting (unfortunately I didn't get a picture of them.) We also had yummy caramel dip and apples, and my sister Courtney made delicious cinnamon and sugar almonds. 



Look at her, 5 weeks left and still super tiny and gorgeous!



Well Kelso I am so happy we got to share this wonderful day with you! Baby Mia got so many cute things, I can't wait to see what she looks like. Although I am super excited to one day become a mom, being an Aunt is absolutely the best,  I can spoil my nieces and nephews and then return them at the end of the day.

What being in college has taught me

I know I have been terrible at writing on my blog the past couple of months. School has engulfed my attention and honestly blogging has been the last on my priority list. I wanted to write blog about my college experience... since I graduate in 53 days. I am thrilled beyond words to be this close to being done. I had know idea it would feel like this nor that it would come so soon. In just a few short months I will be able to call myself a graduate of Health Promotion and Education with an emphasis in Community, also being eligible to become CHES (Certified Health Education Specialist) certified. Wow what a mouthful! Being in college was not like I expected, it was much more. I have been through the worst of worst and the best of best experiences. I would like to share with you what I have learned in the past four years (From beginning to end), I hope you can get a good laugh about it. To those who have yet to start college, I strongly encourage you to start thinking about going. You w...

One of my favorite walls

There have been times that I come home from work or other places, exhausted, frustrated, and uneasy. I have always been a home body and love the comfort I get when inside. When I was preparing to move out when I got married I dreamed of decorating my own place, of hanging my own pictures, of designing the way my furniture was set up. Since I have been married almost one year, I never realized that I have one wall in particular I love to look at. It is in my bedroom, the wall opposite of where our bed sits. I see this wall as I wake up, go to sleep, start and end my day. It's not that big of a deal, and it's actually quite bare, but there are 3 things on there that I love. The first thing is a picture of my husband and I (one that I put together with the lyrics to our first dance), on our wedding day, dancing to our song, "Breathe" by Angels and Airwaves. This picture brings back the giddy feeling of being in a room full of people and the only person I had any knowl...

LIFE.

Hello friends and family! It has been so long since I have posted. Let me tell ya, mama hood takes a lot of time, which I am so grateful for. However, I had a spare minute (literally, Evie is napping right now) where I wasn't doing anything. Which quite honestly is very rare . I don't even know where to start on updates. So bare with me as this literally might be word vomit with no sense of order. First and foremost, we are HOME OWNERS! It was quite the whirlwind getting moved and settled in, but after about a month of rearranging, organizing, getting new things, our house is now a home. Going from a small two bedroom duplex to a 4 bedroom+living room+big kitchen+office+basement+3 bathrooms, we had to do some splurging. We will probably have empty rooms for a while, but sometimes it's nice to go sit in those empty rooms and escape the piles of things that are starting to appear. I still have lots to do, but I going to be ambitious and build (with my Dad and probably  Gran...
