Backyard Tea Party

(Let's ignore the fact that I haven't blogged in weeks ok? I'm busy. lol)

And when I'm lacking ambition of my own I turn to my sisters.....
This sister of mine.  She is so stinking cute.  Her baby just turned 3 and she had the absolute cutest little birthday party/photo shoot in the backyard.
I'm not going to post pictures of just how adorable the actual child is (because sadly my talented sister stopped publicly blogging because of creeps on the internet stealing her kids pictures. gross)  But I can share a few shots of her tea party!

 The lanterns and banner are from Target!  It also helps that she has the perfect spot under this tree!

 yo-yos are our favorite!


Happy Birthday Baby Girl!!!

Best Friend Birthday Gifts

My best friends are twins.
Yes both of them are equally my best friends and yes they are different people.

Their birthday was yesterday and they are the girls who have everything so it was a little difficult to think of something for them.  They are the sweetest girls, always thinking of others, and are so generous and always think of something sweet for my birthday.  This year they sent me flowers to work!


Thankfully we live in an age of Pinterest and you can find out exactly what kind of things people like! 

My friend Kristen pinned a prayer journal and a few verses and quotes that she liked so I compiled them into a book for her.  I knew a prayer journal would be perfect for her because they recently lost their father and she is getting married this weekend and has a lot going on in life, so a place to write out her prayers will be so nice.  And she can look back and see all the things that God has answered and worked out.

It's just a re-decorated a composition book!





 And for my other twinling I made her a bird's nest necklace with three little eggs because she has two boys and is pregnant with a little girl!!
My sister made one for my mom for mother's day and she of course got the idea from pinterest! 
What did we do without it?!


It is fairly simple and cheap to make.
I simple put three beads on wire and wrapped it until I thought it looked like a nest, then added a chain!
Check out pinterest if you want a 'real' tutorial.
Or let me know and I'll have my sister make you one ;)
