Valentine's Day At Home

Now that I am homeschooling my kids, I got to not only be at the valentine's day party, I got to throw it!

My two oldest daughters enjoy preparing for parties with me so we had a blast throwing this one together.

Here are some of the fun details....

Pretty ribbons for the mason jars

Making "mailboxes".

As far as I'm concerned, Valentines day MUST include doilies!!!

Pretty pizza!

Pretty pretty candies!

Chocolate dipped oreos, covered with pretty candies.

YUM YUM!

Fun times with Valentine's Day home made play dough...red pink and white with sparkles.  I set out lots of heart shaped cookie cutters and the kids got creative.

My girls set the table....

...for this fun meal!

Heart shaped pancakes topped with vanilla yogurt, fresh strawberries, whipping cream and a chocolate dipped strawberry.

I hope your Valentine's Day was fantastic too!

More Ruffle Bums

I went to my second baby shower this weekend.  

This shower was for my friend Maya who just had her 5th girl!

Here is my other version of the rubble bum onesie.

{for this weekend anyways}

The front.

Lovely yellow buttons!

And the BUM!

Scrumptious Ruffles

Let's not forget the bow to match!

These little onesies could get addicting.  They are so fun to make!

Ruffle Bum Onesie

Last night I went to a baby shower to celebrate a friend who is having her first baby.

I love first babies!

Such a precious time!

I made a Ruffle Bum Onesie, 

added some polka dotted Baby Legs and a Fig & Ruby Flower headband and wa-la!

 A fun baby gift:)

I love this color combo:)

Ruffled Bum.

Details on the front.

So pretty!

Feeling inspired to make some more.  

I really wish I know if my baby and my sister's baby were going to be girls!!!

I Need Your Help!!

Hi!  I am still alive!  Sorry I have been so silent.  I am working hard on homeschooling my 3 oldest kids and growing a new baby!  It is birthday season around here in the spring though so expect to see a few posts in the near future.  First up in March is Maddie's Purple Party!!

BUT TODAY....

I need your help and this is my shameless plug:

I know a really talented photographer, Candice Johnson Photography.  I really really want to take my new baby for a newborn shoot with Candice.  I have 5 kids and do you know, I have never gotten a professional photo shoot for any of my newborns!?!  I really regret that.  Well, I have one more chance and Candice is offering $150 toward a photo shoot if I win her photo contest on her Facebook page.


Can you please go HERE and like Candice Johnson Photography?
{if you "like" only my photo, it will not count, you have to "like" the page.}

Then go to the photo tab at the top, click there.

Then find THIS photo and click on it

Then comment "vote" on the photo.  Then, if you are willing, ask your friends to vote as well!!!


Thank you so very much!  I really appreciate you help!  My kids are following the race with me and they are quite excited, I really don't want to let them down:)
