So Much To Blog So Little Time......

I finally took this mess of a spice cupboard and made it look like this.......
All the while thinking I should be tackling this pile..........or
Addressing the fact that the child and dog stand on the back of the couch.......
Been driving this cutie to a billion dance classes and dress rehearsals just so she's ready to wear........
this ballet outfit for Alice In Wonderland this weekend.
Went to get a bottle of nail polish and got side tracked organizing under my bathroom sink.......
Our sweet Ryanne got braces last week......
Made these three dimensional flowers and glued them to Thank You gift bags for dance teachers, our ES and Art teachers.
Took these bad boys.......
Along with these sweet treats......
Added some popcorn, sweet tarts and polka dot straws and VIOLA! Thank you gifts for worship leaders etc. who helped make our Married Life retreat so A-W-E-S-O-M-E last weekend!
This great lady who also happens to be a sister in Christ (Tina) made these beautiful cupcakes for our retreat. I bought clear boxes,  brown ribbon and then made a WHOLE BUNCH of 3D flowers and put it all together.
So when the couples checked into their rooms they were greeted with tasty treats & fresh roses (Thanks John & Tammy)
I heart being married!
Couples that faithfully show up to help in the madness in which we like to call Married Life! Pastor Bob Botsford and his wife came and spoke for the conference. It was so GOOD! So stinkin' GOOD!
After Ryanne got braces she said and I quote,"Mom I need a whole new look. Can I cut all my hair off?" So I took her and she cut 7" off. It's so her. Spunky and care free. Love it! Ryanne knew her daddy would be sad that she wanted to cut her hair so she said,"Mamma, daddy is NOT going to let me cut my hair so can you ask him for me and work you magic? I mean it's not like I'm asking to pierce my nose or anything." LOL! A. Pierce her nose? Is that coming? AND B. How does she know about my magic? *Sigh*
We are officially out of school and enjoying our warm weather. Popsicles & friends, lazy mornings, day trips, vacations, sandy toes, daddy's races, Ryanne and Dan's birthday. No classes, no books, no more teacher's dirty looks! I LOVE SUMMER!

I love all your craftiness!! I am not crafty at all...could not have even thought of that. Typically when I try to think up something cute it totally flops. But I love to see what others can do...super cute. Glad you sound like you are on the mend.
