Hi Lovelies!
Three years ago to the day my high school sweetheart, Wes, got down on one knee and asked me to be his wife. I cannot even to begin to explain how happy he made me that day. I had been in love with Wes since we were 16 years old, and we had been dating on and off for 8 years. Wes knows me better than anyone else in this world, and he gave me my dream proposal without ever knowing what it was. Crazy, right? My grandparents live on a lake in northern Michigan during the summer months, and since I was a baby we have been going up each summer. This is my favorite place in the entire world to be. My dream was to start taking some pictures of us on the dock at sunset (my cousin took them) and then in the middle of them, he would get down on one knee and propose. All of my favorite things rolled in to one: Sunsets, the lake, photos, and Wes:) Well, I had only told my cousin and my best friend about my dream (both of whom SWEAR on their lives that they didn’t tell)…and he read my mind! The picture above is from the actual proposal when I finally realized what was going on. Below was just after he put the ring on my finger…which, by the way, I was terrified we were going to drop into the water off the dock.
The happy couple.
Fireworks in town that night, another one of my favorite traditions.
The day after we all took family pictures and I had them throw in a few of just Wes and I.
Happy happy little love birds!
Happy 3rd engagement anniversary, my love! I love you to the moon and back!
Hi Lovelies!
Happy Father’s Day to all of the dads out there! I wanted to take a minute and talk about the man I call Daddy. My Dad is one of the most wonderful, hard working men I have ever met. I have never met a man who is more handy than my Dad and I can’t tell you how many times that has been a saving grace! As kids, my sister and I would put anything and everything we ever broke on his work bench to have him fix it. To this day, the first person I call when I need help with anything handy is my Dad.
I will never forget those summer days when I was young hanging out in the front yard and playing, or riding around on the lawn mower with him:) Michelle and I are the luckiest girls in the world…we couldn’t ask for a more loving and intelligent man to call our Dad.
Love you, Daddy!
Hi Lovelies!
I hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! We sure did. Nicolle, Wes, and I rented paddle boards from The Rowing Dock and went out on Town Lake Saturday morning. It was such a blast! Wes and I have been a lot over the past few years, but Nicolle had never been. The weather was spectacular. There was just enough cloud cover that we were never in the sun for too long of a time. There was also a nice breeze, which was amazing in terms of temperature. It was not so amazing, however, for paddling back to the dock. We were going against the wind the entire way back and it was rough to say the least. If you have never been paddle boarding, I highly recommend it. It’s a great core and arm work out!

Hi Lovelies!
This past weekend my cousin and I drove up to Dallas for my little niece’s 2nd birthday party. It was mermaid themed. Can we talk about the coolest theme ever? Back in my day you didn’t have themes. We had napkins that said Happy Birthday with basic balloons on them and Justin Timberlake cakes. True story. I had Justin Timberlake’s face on my 12th birthday cake. He didn’t taste nearly as good as I was hoping he would. But, anyways, this was probably the cutest, girliest theme ever and I am totally jealous. My sister is SUPER creative, and I really wish I could be like her. I have all these plans for creative, crafty things I can do and then they just never happen. And by plans, I really mean I have a Pinterest board called “crafty crafty”. At least I’m sort of good with words…and pinning…
Here you have $60 worth of icing. Let me tell you, that $60 icing is delightful.
Crab sandwiches are probably the cutest idea ever. Just make your croissant sandwiches and stick googly eyes glued to toothpicks in them! Easy as pie!
Here is the birthday girl, Annie. My precious little nugget:)
Those jellyfish hanging from the ceiling are probably my favorite part.
Seashells made out of chocolate. Handmade. Yeah, I know…I don’t know how she finds the time with 3 little ones under the age of 4. The girl is superwoman I tell ya!
Anniston loved her party, and her cake….but mostly the cake.
I know this isn’t a Mom blog, but I know tons of you wonderful ladies out there have little ones and I figured I would give you all an awesome birthday idea for your little girls! So, go ahead…start a Pinterest board…pin your little hearts out. I will be over here just trying not to feel bad that this party is way cooler than any party I will ever throw since my Pinterest boards never actually come to life….<sigh>
