This Week in Photos & Mini Update

I have been so busy the last two weeks. I feel like I haven't had time to do much of anything relaxing! I'm glad I drafted several posts ahead of time and scheduled them to be published or nothing would ever get posted! I decided that since I had a few extra minutes and was researching a few things online I would give a mini update and share a few pictures! Here are the pictures and the details are below!

1) Maxwell trying to play solitare on the computer.  2) My New Balance Walking shoes...super cozy and you can feel the burn when you walk!  3) Old oak by the park  4) Ty and I  5) Evan climbing at the park.  6) Ty and Bailey on one of the park toys.  7) Evan up close  8) Bailey and Ty both on slides  9) I wrote my wedding vows whoo hoo!  10) Hair clip I made with lace, feathers, a flower, and rhinestones  11)My boquet hot pink, light pink, white with black and white feathers and rhinestones. 12) Our wedding bands! 13) Yes, I would love some hot chocolate even though it is 85 outside  14) A feather pin I am thinking of using for an accessorie at the wedding.

I am happy I got to take the kids for a walk to the park this week. We all had a lot of fun and the weather was great! I am still working like crazy on all the last minute wedding details, accessories, and decor. I wish the pictures turned out better because I really love my boquet! The hair clip detail remind me of the forties style which I love. I'm also thrilled we have most everything else squared away. I am still stressed about these last minute details and still have a few things to finalize, but it will all fall into place!

I hope everyone had a wonderful week and have a great and relaxing weekend! I look for things to calm down after the wedding and will do my best to get back to my regular posts soon! I will also try my best to get to your comments and emails as soon as I can!

Lady in Leather : Fun Looks to Try

I love the look of leather when styled right, and I don't mean heavy metal biker chic style. Don't get me wrong, there is nothing wrong with women riding bikes! Here are a few leather looks I put together and really love right now! Leather can be edgy and fashionable! It can be dressed up or down and it's easy to make leather fashionable!
