Hey guys… It's {almost} FRIDAY, time for Friday Flair!!

I'm currently knee deep in baby shower preparations for Sarah's shower on Saturday. No, she's not having twins… she has been blessed to adopt a sweet new baby girl and during the adoption process was blessed to also become pregnant!! Her and her sweet honey have been trying for years, so they have been doubly blessed with two little girls who will be 3 1/2 months apart!! How fabulous is that? I've gone with a pretty nontraditional theme for this shower. Here's a bit of a sneak peek…

That's all I'm going to share for now… The fun invite created by my friend Kristin with two cute cars {what cars for a girls baby shower?} You'll just have to wait and see. Below that, I have some Instagram pics of the party prep… cutting miles and miles of crepe paper to make fun tassels, and yes… dip dying paper plates and wooden skewers. Going to need some fabulous skewers for everyone to indulge in some tasty Velata!! It's going to be sooooo fun!! I can't wait to share next week!!

Also, don't forget to enter this weeks fun Kaboo Bags giveaway… LOVE those bags!!

Now let's get the party started!!

Sweet… it's {almost} FRIDAY, time for Friday Flair!! School is out, the days are warming up {some place more than others… yea,Vegas kinda stinks this time of year!} Time for late mornings, homemade popsicles, crafting with the kiddos and lazy days by the pool.

I'm also dreaming of Chesterfields!!! I have been looking high and low for the perfect sofa for our living room and I found this one that is PERFECT, but only available in the United Kingdom… BOO! Oh well, the search continues.

Happy Monday Everyone! We're heading into our last week of school this week {thank goodness!} It seems like the rest of the country has been out for days now. I really am looking forward to the summer with my kiddos. This weekend my friend Sarah & I {along with the help of our two sweet and helpful husbands} started working on her nursery for her two bundles of joy that she is expecting soon. Some of you may remember Sarah from The Biggest Loser a couple of seasons ago. Here is a video of her story…

After several attempts at IVF that failed Sarah and Jason her sweet husband started down the road of adoption and have been given the gift of adopting a little girl who should arrive here in the next few weeks. The crazy part of the story is that, not too long into the adoption process Sarah found out that she was pregnant!! The miracle is that this pregnancy and baby are healthy and strong so… Sarah and Jason will have TWO sweet little girls that will be 3 1/2 months apart!!! Eeeeek I'm so excited. Here is a sneak peek of the nursery so far…
