Babies Shower!!!

I love this time of year and so grateful to be getting some sun! I don't know what happened 9 months ago, but it seems like EVERYONE is pregnant and I love it sooo much! Last night, I got to host a babies shower for my two cute friends, Jesse Lloyd and Erica Hart. Jesse is due any day now and looks amazing and Erica is due on 11/11/11.... crazy! How do you even plan that? Lindsay Martineau and Michelle Smoot were in attendance who are also both pregnant (and Lindsay is due on 11/11/11 too). Wow, I love it. Thanks to Whitley, who always saves my life and helped me host as well as Abbey for coming! Love these girls so much!

The moms to be!

The presents.......:)

Jesse, Michelle, and cute Izzy-love that little girl!

Lindsay, Erica, Whitley, and Abbey servin' up some yummy ice cream and toppings.

Party favors (delicious white chocolate popcorn with pink and blue drizzle that Whitley made), neutral colors- I just love yellow, it's such a happy color!

Ginger.......

This is my beautiful sister, Sarah, with her darling prom date. As you can see, they both have red hair. However, she calls herself a "ginger" and claims it is a whole separate race! "Think about it", she says, "we have more freckles, we are pale, and can't tan!"

She does have a good point. However, "gingers" are beautiful and I LOVE her red hair!!

Really??

You know you're in Vegas when cigarettes have their own vending machine.......

Discovery Gateway!

This past weekend, I got to take my sweet little nephew, Trey, to the Discovery Gateway. We went with my friend, Brandi and her 3 cute kids! Trey had a blast except he was terrified of the helicopter! Brandi's daughter, Tayvrie, helped take care of Trey the whole time and it was so cute to see her be a little mom to him.

After the museum, we went to McDonalds and got the meals that makes everyone happy
:-)..... It was a great day!!



Tayvrie and Trey



Loving all the cars!



Loved making cool shapes out of these magnetic blocks



Loved being on the horse!



Desmo is the heli...They have a real helicopter that you can get in and play with, but Trey was terrified!

If you've never been to this cool place- go! It's awesome.

Home Improvement!

So I got to spend this last Saturday working on home improvement projects with my amazing friend, Whitley. Here are the three things I made....



(look at before picture on popcorn post below..)







Thanks so much, Whit! Couldn't have done it without you!

Who doesn't love a new pair of shoes?! It was Jace's birthday last Saturday and we went to Dick's with our awesome friends, the Reese's, to get him a new pair of shoes. Well, needless to say, we both left with some new shoes-after his insistence :)- and we are OBSESSED!

They are so comfortable and I feel like I could run one million miles when I put them on;

I'm in love.

Air-popped Popcorn!

Calling all popcorn lovers! I don't know if it's the holidays or what, but I have been loving different kinds of popcorn lately. There is nothing like warm, freshly made air-popped popcorn. It reminds me of my childhood when we used to pop and eat popcorn as we watched a movie every weekend. Who would've thought you could do so much with these tiny, little kernels?! So I decided to ditch the artificial microwave popcorn and switch to air-popped. I bought myself the Presto Poplite and have had a blast making different kinds of popcorn. My cute friend, Whitley was over when I opened it-love her!

PS-I hope everyone had a Merry Christmas and Happy New Year; cheers to the year 2011!!
