Baby Crofford's First Shower

Baby Crofford had their first shower this weekend. My friends Ashley and Leah came up from Lexington to join in the festivities and I was so excited to catch up with them. My friends Brittany and Tiffiany threw the shower for me and they did such a great job!! No detail was left out and it was a precious Jungle themed showered with pinterest ideas all over :) My friends did such a great job with making me and the babe feel extra special! I had such a great time getting to catch up with friends I do not get to all that often and it was really nice that everyone had someone to talk to. I loved that everyone could start up conversations with new people and by the end of the party everyone was chit chatting away. My friends crack me up so it we had lots of laughs and I beyond thankful for all of their friendships.

The food was great!

Precious!

O how Ashley cracks me up! Her gift was in a big babies r us bag and she forgot that she had threw some other stuff in the bag. You can see towards the bottom of the photo Ashley had a pile of papers (including her tax return) that she left in the bag lol 

Ashley really had us all laughing when she told me about the second gift that she was giving me. It is the below hooded towel. She said she found it at her condo and was not sure who it belongs to (since their are no little kids in her family) so she decided to give it to me. We all laughed really hard at Ashley telling us about the gift. Leah politely told Ashley that she really did not need to tell us that she had it laying around her condo :) My friends are so funny!

The precious pinterest inspired gifts. Each guess signed the onesie in the middle (I'm going to take this to my other showers and to the hospital for people to sign) and also you signed your name on the silhouette you thought the baby is. Loved how creative and thoughtful my friends are!

I am really excited about the child's bible! I have heard that is really does help children understand the bible in an easy way. One of my other friends got me a baby book to record all the fun memories throughout our little ones life. I was just talking to Carrie about this so I am really glad someone bought it for me :) 

Baby things are the cutest!

So blessed that these women are in Baby Crofford's life!

Pinterest Party

Back in May I invited some friends over for a Pinterest Party. Our boards are filled to the brim with ideas but making the time to do them can be challenging. I will never pass up an opportunity to have our house filled with people and to decorate it girly. Enjoy pictures from our pinterest inspired celebration.

Yummy treats

What's a party without door prizes and favors?

Sweet friends enjoying the day being crafty :) 

Eric & Tiffiany sittin in a tree {Tiffiany's Bridal Shower}

In 28 days my friend Tiffiany will become a Mrs. This past weekend we showered her with pretty decorations, great food, and lots of new stuff for her casa {which just happens to be one mile away from my house}. I helped with making decorations and making strawberries stuffed with cheesecake that was requested by the bride-to-be.

Food was labeled with these cute printable and table was decorated with this

It's hard to tell but the cupcakes had rings in the center of them :)

Tiff loves scattergories so I got inspiration from here and made the game.

Helping to Bring Home Baby Kersey

This past weekend I went to Lexington to hang out with some besties, Ashley and Leah, but also go to a fundraiser to Bring Home Baby Kersey. My sweet bible study leader, Sarah, from EKU is adopting a baby from Euthopia.I love any excuse to get dressed up and when it is for a good cause it makes it even better.

Before the fundraiser I got to relax, catch up, and laugh with my sweet friends. Ashley and I may have wasted some of our brain cells watching hours of the Kardashians but when it's raining the best idea is to watch people lives on TV and be thankful my life is not followed by cameras :)

Here are some pictures from the fundraiser.

Look Who's 1

On October 9th our sweet nephew Caleb turned ONE! Carrie {Caleb's mommy and my SIL} wanted to do a Red's Baseball theme party and I helped her come up with ideas and decorations for the party. The party was too cute and the little guy seemed like he had such a great time. Enjoy some pictures from the party.

I made this onesie for the birthday boy. I am becoming a pro at ironing on designs that I make from fabric :) My sewing is still not up to par.

Some of the signs for the party I made

Peanuts and cracker jacks anyone?

Carrie may think she is not "crafty" but look at this cute timeline she made of Caleb this past year

Caleb's Aunt Anna made his cake. She truly is talented and it was AWESOME!

Anna is in Med School right now but she should also be a part-time cake maker. She is crazy good!

Happy Birthday Caleb!

Uncle Kyle and Aunt Jenny love you very much!

Oh nothin's sweeter

Nothin's sweeter than summertime for me. The sun shining, a more relaxed schedule, tan lines, and long summer days are why I love summer. Here are some pictures of what we have been up to lately.

Strawberry cupcakes stuffed with cheesecake, your welcome!

We had our families over for July 4th. I got great ideas for the decorations from here, here, here, and here.
