Thirty One....CUTE!

This past weekend I had a Thirty One Party/Scentsy Party! My friend Jennifer is a Thirty One Consultant and my friend Jenny is a Scentsy Consultant and they did such a great job Saturday night!

We all know what Scentsy is and all of their YUMMO smells they have (Blueberry Cheesecake and Cranberry Muffin are my favs),

but Thirty One is new to me and I LOVE their stuff!

Thanks to everyone who came and helped make the party such a success!!

Here are a few of the Thirty One items Jennifer had to show us: SO CUTE!!!

I can't wait to get my stuff in that I ordered!

see the grey polka dotted bag in the corner....yep I ordered that, I have been eyeing that cute bag since I was given a catalog a month ago.

A Picnic in the Park

Today David and I met Brooke, Olivia, Carson, and Emerson at Kids Kingdom for a Picnic.

It was such a beautiful day!

I loved seeing Carson running around with David playing football....such a great thing to see since he was in the hospital with Pnuemonia this time 2 weeks ago!

The kids had a blast! and Brooke and I got to catch up....

Oh and I got to love on Emerson! Such a cutie pie!

Mr and Mrs

This past weekend we had the privilege of celebrating a special wedding.....
It was special because it was one of my oldest, and dearest friends that was married!

Niki looked absolutely stunning!

Me, Niki, Staci, and Tara

(we have all been friends since we were little...

I have had some really fun times with these ladies)!

Niki was married to David....

ok, so not my David (but you have to admit that their pic together is pretty darn cute)!

but this David, an english teacher at Lakeview Centennial High School in Garland.

They both read letters to each other and of course Niki's letter made me cry! It was absolutely beautiful....I love that she had her mother in law from her first marriage listed (long, beautiful, love story....ask me about it some time)

The Table Centerpieces, elegant & vintage = LOVE

and yes that is an Armadillo cake and why yes it was red velvet....just like on Steel Magnolias...LOVE IT!

The Beautiful Brides Cake

Everything was perfect!

11 already!

This past week my oldest, Ashleigh, turned 11! I will try to make it through this blog post without shedding a tear...I just can't believe I have an 11 year old who will be in junior high next year...NOOOOOO I am not ready for all of this just quite yet!

We kept it small this year...she invited 7 friends from school and we had planned on playing lazer tag (but there was an hour and a half wait, so we opted for go karts and neon golf instead). The kids had so much fun!

After getting back from Shenaniganz the rest of my family came over and we had pizza, cake, and ice cream. They also had fun in the photo booth.... I bought a ton of props and they loved it! So much fun!

Time goes by so fast! I wish I could stop time just for a bit and just let them grow a little slower! I still can't believe she is 11 already! WOW! Next up...junior high...boys....dances....let the fun times begin!

Blessings,
