Cookies


I need to learn how to make these cookies.  They would look so cute for a birthday party and I love the colors.  Pink and green is my new favorite color combination.

Tutus

I LOVE tutus.  A sorority sister of mine made Addison the most adorable purple and blue tutu with little pink flowers.  When Addison is big enough I will post pictures of her in it.  My favorite tutu shop is on Etsy, Trinity's Tutus.  That is where I found the adorable tutu in the photos below.

Addison's Melissa Glynn Photo Shoot

Cottage





















































Isn't this Cottage just gorgeous?? I am so in love with it.  This would be an awesome retreat to go to and just relax, maybe read a book. Apparently, this old place was a little old cabin and the owner decided to fix it up and transform it into her own little cottage! It even ended up in the New York Times!!! Please visit her blog- My Shabby Streamside Studio to read up on all the details!

Birth Announcement

I am super late sending this out, but better late than never. 


As soon as we receive the photos from our amazing photographer Melissa Glynn, I will be mailing out official announcements.

Janie and Jack


I am officially obsessed with Janie and Jack.  They make such amazing high quality clothes.  Just look at this adorable outfit!  I want it.


I was able to find some amazing deals on Janie and Jack outfits and bought outfits for the next two years. 


They are having a fabulous sale right now.  Check it out

Monkey Sundays... formerly bunny Sundays



Eric has vetoed the nickname bunny... she will now be known as monkey.  I will post a video of her waving to us for the first time, once I can figure out how to upload it.

Memories of a blueberry

I am a few days overdue, but here are some photos from my pregnancy.

A fresh squeeze




Cherry Lemonade



2 Cups Fresh Lemon Juice


1 Cup Unsweetened Bottled Cherry Juice


½ Cup Sugar


2 Quarts Sparkling Water


In a large pitcher, combine lemon juice, cherry juice and sugar. Add sparkling water and stir until sugar is dissolved. Taste to adjust the sweetness to your liking. Chill and serve over ice. Add a few lemon slices or sprigs of fresh mint for a flavor boost.


Serves 6 to 8
 
Time Saving Tips
 
Purchase prepared lemonade or frozen concentrate at the grocery store if you don’t want to squeeze your own juice. Spike it with extra lemon or lime flavor by squeezing one fresh lemon or two limes and adding a few slices to infuse more flavor.



Customize your lemonade by adding a splash of any juice of your preference such as watermelon, pomegranate or blueberry.
