vacation project....

I took along a project to work on through vacation...quiet afternoons while Alfredo napped...

And this proved to be the very best vacation kind of project. It is a kit from Charlotte Lyons. I love it so much. I couldn't stop so I added a bit of my own to the design.
Isn't it sweet?

ahhhh...

We're back from vacation. I don't have a single picture to share...didn't even take my camera out. But we did a lot of relaxing and playing and eating and having fun.

Today we're just having fun getting back into the swing of our lives...Alfredo is so happy to see his toys again. And me? I'm exhausted. Isn't a vacation supposed to refresh you?

Chloe and Sebastiaan's wedding

I love this photo so much...on one side, the sweet love of the bride and groom and on the other, the love of my friends Lorraine and Joel for their daughter and new husband. So sweet.

The wedding was amazing. Our friend Tiffany took pictures and I can't wait to see how they turned out.

The hearts took a while to put up...about 2 hours...and I wasn't able to do them exactly as I'd planned because of the way the doors opened...but I still think they looked pretty. And the tree was really wonderful, although maybe just a bit on the small side. If I were doing it again, I'd make the whole thing a bit bigger. Tiffany said she'd share pictures of these to show you.

We're getting ready to head out to the beach next week for a vacation with my family. And you won't believe what I have up my sleeve. 17 snack trays! Yes, indeedy. I'm certifiably insane.

crayons!

Look what we won!


So much fun!

 We're practicing our letters...the cone shape is just right for his chubby little hands.

He loves them!

Wendy donated them to Crystal's quilt raffle and my name was picked to win them. Find these and other designs here.
