   Need to go get dressed, can't spend all of Valentine's Day in a towel people!!

Ry and I celebrated Valentine's Day by dining at Maggiano's, and it was beyond AMAZING!  I love their fresh bruschetta!!  Then I made my own version of homemade Reeses' Lollipops.  Ryan was a big fan, as was Wyndham's teacher :) :)

 wore my new Lucky TALL TALL boots, express blazer, skinny jeans, and a Red/Black hounds tooth made by me!!  And Ryan was just plain handsome in his jeans, driving mocks and blazer.  He is my Forever Valentine  <3 

 dessert:

 almost gone, we've got issues.  It's called I'm pregnant and eating WAYY too much.  sad, but true.

Hope you had a wonderful Valentine's Day!! This is how we celebrated ours :) :) 

Wyndham's Cupcake Party

Finally, 1 month later I am posting pictures of Wyndham's 1st Birthday Party. Sorry for the delay but I truly have been very busy lately...  It was all this cupcake!  Down to the labels on the water bottels and she even got her very own cupcake cake :)  What a special day for our sweet Wyndham Lee!

 Cupcake invites!  Each one was unique!  Made using the all Mighty Cricut-- the personal electronic cutting machine.  Amazing invention!!

I tried to stay with a pink and blue cupcake theme.  Pink obviously for our girly girl and blue to make it boy friendly as well b/c all of our friends have little boys. 

 
The Cupcake cake!  Daddy even decorated the chair for the birthday girl all on his own.  The cupcake banner is made of 2 kabob sticks and pretty card stock.

Cake Pops!  So good and so cute looking like little cupcakes!  Courtesy of Aunt Erin from Sweet Euphoria Desserts.

 We kept the menu simple yet cute.  All glass or white serve ware, PB&J sandwiches shaped like a cupcake using the cupcake cookie cutter from Bake it Pretty, fruit and cheese, pigs-in-a-blanket, veggie tray and a some crossiant sandwiches.  Pretty display, wish I would have taken more pics!

 How amazing are the hot pink Driving Moccasins Wyn wore??  Had to get a close up.

 Cupcake liner heaven....

 Old pics at the party to reminsce.

 Cupcake stackers! Such an amazing invention!  We got ours from Amazon, great deal and we'll use them over and over and over!  Have a little obsession with cupcakes.

Baby Crain

Some of you might remember my sweet friend Bethany who ran the 1/2 marathon with me, went to NYC with me in 2009 or helped me plan Michelle's 30th b-day 80's bash.   Bethany and her cute hubby Jared are about to have their first kiddo and are bursting with excitement over Bennett Rose's arrival.  I had the honor of doing a little photo sesh with her and her cute baby bump this past weekend.  Not only is Bethany drop-dead gorgeous but she's smart and is super-woman-for reals people! She does a ton for the community, Rotary club, leads a prison ministry, Bible Study, Won the Nashville Marathon for Sumner County and could probably kick just about anybody's butt (she still runs 7 days a week, sometimes 7 miles or more--quite a sight to see with that cute belly!), not to mention she completely kicked my butt in the 1/2 marathon - PREGNANT!  And she's humble and never brags on herself, so I wanted to take a minute to do so because she truly is a blessing everyone she knows.  Needless to say she will be super-mommy as well and I can't wait to see her in action!  


Here are some of my favs from the shoot.  So hard to choose!!

Can you tell I love lens flares a little? hehe!  Baby Crain's baby shower is next weekend and we Hostesses are so very excited about it.  Will take/post pics after :)
