Pretty, Pretty Princess
We are blessed. Truly blessed. I try to make a mental list of those blessings every day.
Truthfully, there are days where that list keeps me sane.....or at least in the vicinity of sane.
This dress provided Mikaela with hours of entertainment on one summer afternoon (and many thereafter!).
We are blessed to have such great friends - one of my scrappy pals was generous enough to give this to Mikaela (THANKS M - we love it!!!).
Snorkels
Two snorkels from last years summer clearance $0.50
One hour of happy children.....priceless
Step One: Create Invitations
l
My princess knows how to throw a party. She begins months in advance - choosing a theme.
The day after her birthday party last year - she chose this year's theme.
Her frugal shopping mother LOVES this about her! I had a full year to gather supplies for the great Fashion Show of 2009.
She hand made each invitation with her scrapbooking supplies.
Make up, dress up, glamor galor
Those are the things that I truly adore
Walk the Runway
At Mikaela’s Super 7th Birthday!
We’ll get a chance to show off our style
This party is sure to make any diva smile!
Please join us for an afternoon of
girlie glamor, glitter and giggles!
My New Dining Room Walls
Tommy has many talents.
One of my favorites is that the man can paint a wall. He can transform a room from a dingy mess to sparkly new dining room.
Just like that.
AND - as an added bonus, he is sharing the gift with the children.
So the momma will always have freshly painted pretty walls!

Happy Birthday my sweet Mikaela
Mikaela - the day she was born - never was there a prouder father! Tommy waited nine months to find out that she was a girl, and wanted that movie style moment where you run into the waiting room and tell all the awaiting new aunts/uncles, grandparents, cousins..."It's a ?????"He was rendered speechless by her arrival....and wouldn't let go of her!
Mikaela's second birthday - that sweet baby she is kissing is her brother!
