I do not have any...but I want some!!!

I am still (selfishly) debating on whether sharing this is a good idea or not!!

I saw THESE a couple of months ago and I really wanted one then. My husbands grandmother, we call her DeeDee, would be so proud of me! I do not know if these are ones that will be featured in the Apronpalooza, but I am excited to see what is going to be up for grabs!!! When I came across Apronpalooza over at Nan's blog, I was screaming with joy...on the inside, since I am in a cubicle at work amongst 20 others!! :0) I do not know why I was filled with so much excitement...I do not win things often. I guess it truly is the little things that bring me joy. I think it just reminded of how badly I want one. I will wait until next week and if I do not get one, I might just put it on a birthday list! I just realized that sharing this does lessen my chances of winning. I am ok with that! I want to share the joy!! If any of you do win, my birthday is sometime in August! :) Just teasing!!

Also, sorry about the long time in between posts. Since we have THIS going on, it is definitely taking a lot of our time and attention. We are totally ok with this! It will not be long before I am blogging my time away until we have a referral for baby girl! Toodles for now!

I am going to share this with you!

It was a bridesmaidy Saturday!!

I have never been a bridesmaid. This year, will be my first year to be a bridesmaid and I get to be one to two of my very good friends.Today I cooked lunch for some of the bridesmaids and family of Tiffany, the July 28th wedding. We also worked on making some tissue paper peonies for the reception area, as well as some of the arrangements that will go on the pews. They also brought over all of the silk flowers for me to start working on some of the big altar arrangements. I will get started and hopefully finished with them this week. We had lots of fun! I love to have people over and entertain and I also love to be crafty. So here are some photos of our big Saturday!!!!

I made an enchilada lunch for all of the ladies...yummy!!


Then we got to work learning how to make these napkin rings...we have to make 50 each. This idea came from Martha Stewart magazine. She made it seen much easier than it is.


We worked really hard. I think we got about 5 done in 2 hours or so! :)


Myself, and the brides mom put together 15 of these in no time. That is what I am talking about!!


The Bride-to-be sharing her expertise!!!


To top the day off, My handsome husband and I went out on a hot date!!! We have got to make these more of a priority. No kids yet and we are already slacking!!!

To buy or not to buy... this is the question!!!

The cup says this:
"Why in moments of crisis do we ask God for strength and help? As cognitive beings, why would we ask something that may well be a figment of our imaginations for guidance? Why not search inside ourselves for the power to overcome? After all, we are strong enough to cause most of the catastrophes we need to endure."

Can't Starbucks just sale some coffee? Why open themselves to the chance of losing customers by allowing something like this to be on their cup?

Share your opinion with me!!
