Martha Stewart

As most of you know, I like to read other blogs. This is just a little excerpt from one of my favs! Does anyone else do the following? :)

"hold it. perhaps i should mention the shakedown. oh, the shakedown. a term invented by sister which, by definition, is the 45 minute blitz you frantically set out on right before your husband comes home which magically transforms your home into looking like you've been june-cleaver-in' the place all day. can't tell you how many times i've been gabbing with my sister at six o'clock only to wildly cut the call short with a "--crap, i have to go...shakedown time!" which is always met with empathy and a 'you'll-get-it-done' on her part. and i always do. in fact, if i don't say so myself, i've been known to turn a pit-gone-mad into martha stewart's living room, spit-shine the kitchen, throw something into the crockpot, turn the dryer on, light some candles, crank some diana krall, dispose of my pajamas, and smear some lipstick on in thirty-seven minutes flat. and he'll be all like 'wow' when he comes home. and i'll be all like, if-only-you-knew."

Happy Father's Day!

Playing Dress Up

Seph accidentally put my wedding dress in the attic and I didn't discover this until a few weeks ago. Yeah, attics in Texas are not exactly a good storage area for wedding dresses, but thankfully it was preserved in a special box...Well, not anymore:) KJ and I decided to play dress up this morning. It was really sweet to see how excited she was when she tried it on. On a side note...yes, it still fits! Praise the Lord!

Blondies

Greens and Blues

I mean seriously? Who doesn't wear their blue Cinderella princess heels to play a little golf with their dad in the backyard?

5 Years!

Happy Anniversary to my wonderful husband! It's been quite an adventure over the past 5 years and I wouldn't change any of it! Thank you for giving me the most beautiful daughter! You guys mean the world to me and I'm looking forward to every moment we share together! I love you!

Princesses, Ponies, and Parties

Have I mentioned how much I love this kid? Here are a few pics from the last couple of weeks. I don't have a picture of Kate in her Snow White dress at Emma's 3rd birthday party, but here she is helping me out in the kitchen in her princess gear. We also went to little Jasmine's 2nd Birthday party last week...they had ponies, a Dora bounce house, and a hot dog stand! Let's just say that Kate was not a happy camper when it was time to go home!
