Getting Crafty with my Nieces


I have been working on painting wooden frames I bought for our table numbers and they were suppose to be a small project but, turned into a large one. Each frame needed about five coats of paint and since I made a costume color they took longer. So, today I picked up my nieces and bought them over to help me work on finishing the table numbers and place cards. I only got them for two hours but, we got a lot done! Now, I'm halfway done. I made them cheddar wurst for lunch and than I picked put tutu outfits for them and took a few photos of them. I'm really going to miss being able to drive the down the street and see them.
I wish I was able to spend even more time with them than I do. Thanks for all the
help girls!

This is a DIY wedding!

Today I placed my orders for most of the items I will need to make our centerpieces, my veil, ribbon candles, and other decorations. I was able to find online coupons for all but one site. The only thing left to order is the fresh real flowers (2 wks before the wedding) and more ribbon. The websites I ordered from are:
Here are a few pictures of the silk flowers I received he next day from Afloral.com and I am only returning three items. Talk about a fast turn around!
