Dr. Seuss Shower















My dear friend is expecting her first little baby boy in September...so my mom and I decided to throw her a shower! Since she LOVES everything Dr. Seuss, what better theme then just that! We had so much fun with all of the little details!!! We even learned some great new "tricks" that I am ready to use at other showers.
We decided to use old Dr. Seuss books as the theme for each type of food. As you can see we did some fun play on words. We even made the guests wear a boa and Dr. Seuss hat for a fun photo! My amazingly talented scrapbooker friend Lea took over the creativity part! She took fun photos of the guests and then will use an old book to make a memory book! So much fun!

God Bless America!

We had a wonderful 4th of July. Our neighborhood had a potluck. We live up on a hill and we are able to see fireworks from all around! It's a great view and nice to be close to home too! So... We brought desserts, salads, and enjoyed meeting the neighbors. My mom and dad came down to enjoy the show with us too! Andrew LOVED the fireworks! I was surprised, but he loved them! It was an especially hot day, so he enjoyed swimming before the big show! It was a wonderful day!

Boise, Idaho






There are many things that I love about summer, but one of my favorites is the chance to make the annual June roadtrip with my mom and Andrew to Boise, Idaho to celebrate my niece's birthday! This year was just as wonderful! When we are in Idaho there are several things we have to do! 1) Chik-fil-A (No doubt this is the best food ever!) 2) Cracker Barrel (Can you say yum! I love their grilled catfish! Andrew loves their mac and cheese) 3) Hobby Lobby (By far the best craft store ever!) We had an amazing time and the cousins absolutely adore one another! San Diego is going to be SO much fun!!!
