Mini Cake Stands!

These mini cake stands were so cheap and simple to make! All I did was get small appetizer plates that were on clearance at Party City and some colored plastic shot glasses. Glued them together and there you have it....mini cake stands for each girl to decorate her mini cake on!!

Bosnia Bound

I love this man! He is such an amazing provider and a wonderful spiritual leader to this family....among lots of other things. I couldn't imagine spending my life with anyone else. Jeremy is headed to Bosnia with Philip and Rusty for a mission trip. Originally I was going to go but with it being all men going we thought it would be better for him to go. I cannot wait to see how God uses them for His glory. We are so thankful that we have so many amazing friends and family members that have financially and prayerfully supported him. He could not be going without you! Here is a picture of Jerm doing some work for me before he leaves this afternoon. He is cutting out gears and fish for the new design of the kids area at Discover Point.

Not Just Your Everyday Headband!

You may think that this is just another pretty headband......until she turns around! One of our friends from DP, Alisa, saw this at the dollar tree and just couldn't pass it up. Layner loves her new long "hair".

We always love going to Hannah's birthday party every year. This year was NO exception! She had a cute little Dora the Explorer party complete with a backpack, map for each child, obstacle course, Swiper, and of course a treasure at the end!! It was just so great and creative. Thanks for the invite, we enjoyed it :)

Parties and Pizzas

The girls were invited to Hannah's 5th birthday party tomorrow. Since I had some extra fabric from making the aprons I decided to make Hannah a little bag/purse and a crayon roll. The girls wanted to model the finished gifts! Then we made pizzas for dinner!

Tiny Dancer

The dress up and dance started early this morning for the Layner. She is so proud of her new moves. I really enjoy spending Fridays alone with my sweet second born. I love her bold matter of fact personality and her great sense of humor and her huge caring heart. I can't not wait to see how God uses her for His glory!!

My beautiful baby....just being beautiful.

Layne was so determined to button her own pj's tonight!!

She asked for a ponytail this morning. So, I got her hair nice and wet and gave her a little ponytail. I never even thought that she'd take it out at school. Well, she did and this is what it looked like when I picked her up this afternoon!!!

It was a shockingly spiky swoosh


This is what her hair looked like this morning before she left for school.
