GRunveiled

Back in December, my favorite wedding and event planner/blogger Aletha from Pearls Events, and Joy'l from Fresh Nest Designs announced a brand new wedding show they were bringing to Grand Rapids.image copyright Jill DeVries photography

The show is called GRunveiled, and what an amazing line up of vendors they've brought together! A few vendors include Etsy shop Pixel & Hank who I've posted about here and here, and one of my favorite local shops, Art of the Table.

Oh how I would have loved something like this when I was a bride!

Congratulations Aletha & Joy'l on pulling together what is certainly going to be a very successful event!

Monday's 10 Things

Here's what I'm most thankful for, right now!
~
1. Temperatures in the 50's this weekend, are you kidding me!?!
2. Sunshine for 7 days straight, let's keep it coming!
3. An amazing night out with our neighbors Friday night.
4. Another great babysitter.
5. The example our neighbors set for us of being fully-devoted followers of Christ, in spite of all the trials they've endured.
6. Our zoo re-opened this weekend. Not only has my little girl been talking about it ALL winter, but that must mean that summer is coming.
7. Seeing our bathroom gutted was not nearly as scary as expected. Now to start putting it back together.
8. My parents come home this week!
9. The girls in my MOPS group, we have such a blast together.
10. Two girl's nights out this week.

Fresh Start Sunday

A good name is more desirable than great riches;
to be esteemed is better than silver or gold.

Mia Joie

We (well, let's be real here, mainly just me!) are loving these hair clips from Mia Joie. I knew I had hit the jack pot by actually being able to purchase them before someone else snatched them up, but they've really helped tremendously as we try to grow Claire's hair past this awkward in-between stage. We haven't tried out the headband yet,
but I'm thinking it will be perfect this Spring!

Ugh..

...my laptop keeps freezing, and my sewing machine keeps seizing.
I'm feeling a little like both my arms have been cut off.

Hopefully good things to report soon.

Monday's 10 Things

Here's what I'm most thankful for, right now!
~
1. Mercies on Saturday for my brother and everyone else in Hawaii.
2. A fun time having friends over on Saturday night.
3. After dinner, finding ourselves all sitting on our play room floor while our kids played...oh how our lives have changed!
4. A really nice Sunday. Church in the morning, a Sunday afternoon nap, and a worship service at night.
5. Starting a week feeling rested and caught up on life.
6. It's March, bring on Spring!
7. The sun is becoming a much more regular thing outside.
8. Good times watching the Olympics. It's kind of sad to see them done.
9. Puttering in my craft room this weekend. I've been so caught up in house projects, I haven't just crafted in quite a while now.
10. My baby is 29 months old today. (How long can I get away with counting months???)
