Happy Birthday Momma!

Happy Birthday to my beautiful Momma!

She was brought into this world to be many things such as a daughter, sister, friend, wife, and..... my mother!

She's one of a kind and I couldn't be more grateful and thankful to have her as my mom.

Today, I wish to be in North Carolina to celebrate and give her a BIG birthday hug.

She knows I'm there in spirit. Love you MOMMA! Happy Birthday!

Over the weekend, Ryan brought to my attention the daisies we planted last year while my parents were visiting. We actually bought them in the rescue section at Lowes. To be honest, I had no clue they had a "rescue section" until my dad told me about it. You're able to buy all kinds of plants for a discounted price but it's risky since all the plants are on their last life. These daisies were a perfect example of that and I think I paid a $1.00 for each. I planted it, gave it a little love, and wished it well. Now, it's a year later and in full bloom! WHOOHOOO!!

When I think of daises, I always think of the movie "Just Got Mail" with Tom Hanks and Meg Ryan.

Meg Ryan has a line in the movie that reads: I love daisies. They're so friendly.

Don't you think daisies are the friendliest flower?

Yes, I think it's the friendliest flower.

BABY OUTFIT: Firefighter Theme

Did you notice the baby firefighter helmet, diaper and boots in Kelly's shower photos?

I came across this adorable outfit on Etsy two months before Kelly got pregnant. Immediately, I fell in love with it! At that time, I was planning my wedding but made sure to put this idea in a safe place. As many of you know, I'm always planning for the next event. I have to think AHEAD!! ;-)

I've known Kelly since I was 13 so she's like a sister to me and

I'm so excited that baby Lucas will almost be here.

Even the nursery has a firefighter theme.

Where did I buy this outfit?? Click here to get to Connie's Etsy page.

She is GREAT to work with and will be happy to make this for you.

Happy 30th Anniversary!

Today's my parent's 30th anniversary and I couldn't be happier for them.

They have been excellent role models in my life and forever grateful.

I wish them another 30 ++ of love and happiness.

I'm also really excited because they have something really

special planned for their anniversary and can't wait for their upcoming fun.

Look at this beautiful family they created!

I dedicate this song to them. LOVE YOU BOTH!

The picture below was taken @ Carey's rehearsal dinner the night before her wedding.

Such a blessing to be a part of these special moments.

Gifts from Yelina

You're probably wondering who that adorable girl is in the photo??!! Her name is Yelina and she's our god-daughter. While I was away on my trip, Miss Yelina sent Ryan and I a package all the way from beautiful Hawaii. The package was filled with goodies and a lovely note.

HOW DID SHE KNOW THAT HAWAIIAN SUN IS MY FAVORITE DRINK!??

Proof: This is my drink while I was on my honeymoon!

Miss Yelina.... have you been reading my blog ;-)

Thank you for the goodies! We are enjoying them.

Firetruck Themed Shower: Baby Lucas

I'm finally back from North Carolina and it's time to blog. Last week, I flew to NC to help throw a baby shower for my long time best friend, Kelly. Her shower took place in Charlotte, NC which is about 3 hours away from my parents house. The day of the shower, I was up at 3:30 am to get everything ready for my travels to Charlotte and eventually left the house at 5am. It was a busy busy day as you can imagine but it was a special day for sure. Kelly & Justin's firetruck themed baby shower turned out perfect!

Check out the pictures below.
