My Missoni purchases
I have to say, I scored big-time with all my Missoni loot. Yes, I'll probably return some stuff because no one needs this much chevron in their home, but feeling super happy with all my purchases.
I also did some online shopping...I just HAD to have two of the baby blankets and some frames I didn't see in the store. My most coveted purchase is that luxurious throw blanket. Still wishing I would've gotten it in the pink, but still loving the mustard! Yay for Target!

Drew is 1
Last Friday, on September 2nd, my baby girl Drew Elizabeth turned 1 year old. She was born on 90210 (9-2-10) at 4:30 p.m. She has been an absolute joy to my life. I still remember the day she was born like it was yesterday.
1 day old to 1 year old. Drew has been the best baby anyone could ask for. I have cherished every day...all 365 of them. I cannot wait to see what is ahead for her in the coming year!
Today we celebrated Drew's birthday with a kitty cat party. It was so much fun, but I'm exhausted! Can't wait to share the pictures with you next week! Happy birthday to my sweet, baby Drew.

Our productive weekend
Wheeew, what a busy weekend...and man, was it a hot one! We had planned to go to the zoo in the evening on Saturday, but it was just too darn hot - so I was busy crafting away and getting the house ready for Drew's birthday party. I thought I'd share some of the fun things I've been working on.
I put the final touches on this huge canvas I did for Micah's room. Micah loves Dr. Seuss, and I love the title of this book. All that is left to do is to hang it up and find a cute globe to put on his dresser.
I decided to give our hallway a little pop of color. It is very pink. I was going for a raspberry, but all in all, I'm happy with it. You can also see a little sneak peek at the decor I started to put up for Drew's kitty cat party. Yarn poms are everywhere!!!
Here is a picture of our family calendar I just got from Paper Source. I put an open frame around it to make it a little more "stylish". It also serves as a place to set the Sharpies.
I also wanted to do a little sprucing up to our guest bathroom. I changed out the mirror to this black and gold one I found at Aaron Brothers (1/2 0ff), of all places. I added a little shelf for some fun decorative items from Anthropologie.
To tie in the hallway color, I did this little piece of art to add just a little pop in the room. I'm hoping to find some great brass piece soon for the wall...just waiting for something to jump out at me.
Lastly, we ended the weekend with our tradition of homemade soft pretzels and popcorn. My baby girl has started walking and has a new tooth coming in, so it has also been an eventful weekend as well! 
Hope everyone had a great weekend! Stay posted to see my finished dining room and more pictures of my projects for Drew's party!

Happy Anniversary mom & dad
44 years ago today, my parents were married! Quite an accomplishment these days! For their 40th anniversary, I decided to throw them a surprise party at our house. My mom HATES surprises. That didn't stop me. It just so happened that my sister and her family were out visiting from Tennessee for their high school reunion. With my brother and sisters help, we were able to pull it off!
As with any good party, I started with the theme. I'm not usually a "red" girl, but the 40th wedding anniversary is the Ruby, so it was a great excuse to go all out on the red color scheme. To keep things easy, we just did a few desserts, champagne toast, cake and coffee. I'm disappointed I didn't have enough time to more pictures! Note to self: have a designated person to take all the detail shots while you are scrambling like crazy!
Here are some of the desserts. I kept it really simple with chocolate covered strawberries and my mom's famous jello recipe in little cups. You can't really tell in the picture, but I labored over those champagne glasses for weeks. Each one has a cluster of red gems for a little flare!
Here is the line up of guests waiting for my parents to come in. On the invitation, I had requested that all the guests incorporate red into their attire. 60 people and all....it was like built in house decorations!
Here they are....my mom a little annoyed and a lot surprised! We had told them we were going out to a great new dessert place, so they didn't suspect anything with a 7:00 arrival time.
This is my niece, Casey outside. I had rented a few belly bars and linens for our deck outside. I did red roses and pomanders of red carnations.
Here is a shot of the deck. I used red lanterns and tissue poms hung over the deck.
Perhaps one of the most fun projects from the party was re-creating their wedding cake. I worked with my favorite ladies at CAKE and got their famous banana truffle cake. I sent them a picture of my parent's wedding cake, and did our best to re-create it. It was actually hard to find the flying doves and the cherubs! I set a picture of them cutting the cake next to their cake. The irony of it was that my mom's wedding colors were red and white, so it went perfectly with the theme!
Here they are after their toast! You can kind of see the cake here.
When my cousin Sara arrived, she was looking at the cake and I saw her studying it a bit. She later told me that she thought I had gone crazy with my taste level. She didn't realize until later that I had re-created their cake! Hilarious. I still laugh when I think what she must have been thinking!
After the cake, we surprised them with a video we created in iPhoto of all their pictures through the years. This was a collaborative effort between us kids and me sneaking into my parent's house many, many times over my lunch breaks! We toasted them and took this family picture. Since then, we've added my niece Avery and our two kids to the family.
Next year is their 45th. That is the sapphire anniversary....my wheels are already spinning!
Happy Anniversary mom and dad. I love you!
