Diaper Cake can Now be added to the list

I recently feel like a chicken with my head cut off.. My girlfriend and i have started a new business called Sassy Seasons and specialize in seasonal home decor including wreaths.. we have been busy beyond all get out just in the last 4 wks WITHOUT major advertising which is both a blessing and beyond scary at the same time. !!!! Scary , but in a good way. We have already booked a party for NEXT JUNE... i know, right?! NUTS!
I get a text today from my business partner who asks if we could make a lady a diaper cake.. DUE TOMORROW.. uhm.. excuse me, WHAT?! Not only have i NEVER made a diaper cake, BUT that's less than 24 hours notice! Seriously, i spent over 60 bucks JUST on supplies.. and were talking dollar stuff and the diapers... lord have mercy, at 2 am we have finally finished it, after both us us working all day and i'm doing mom duties going to a girl scouting event, then dinner. i'm beat- 3 am has come WAYYYY too fast..
Come check out our blog :
Http://sassyseasons.blogspot.com/ and see the work we have done. We ship!!! This is what her and i LOVE doing.. we're actually neurotic about the whole thing ;)

Happy Birthday, Daddy!

Today is my sweet husbands birthday and i wanted to make this post for him- I try and make EVERY birthday special.. Mini Me has wrapped his gifts on her own- in purple boxes with manly ribbon, LOL!!
Im TRYING to make his dinner, with a yorkie in my peanut shell from when lil muffin was a baby.
Its all coming together slowly, but i WILL get it done!

Babe, i am so blessed to spend ANOTHER year with you and another birthday.. they only get better!






(In the last 24 hrs, we have had some major events- i'll expand on that later but ask for your prayers for our little yorkie. )

Babe, we are so blessed to spend ANOTHER year with you and another birthday.. they only get better!

We LOVE our Daddy!! Cheers to many more years of laughs, dirty diapers, giggles, messing up the house with toys, and lots of little hugs and kisses !

Weekend of Fun & Celebration!!

This last week, my BEST friend from Birth turned the big 3-0. All of her friends got together and planned a lil suprise party for her- and suprise it was.. Even better, we showed up! ;) I had to make sure it was all decorated, after all what's a party with lousy decor? These chocolate covered marshmallows have become my trademark.. had to make them for the party.. threw some things together and made a dessert table.
I had a stack of scrapbook paper so based the colors around that paper-

The table set up- BEFORE all the food

I found this cool idea in blog land- ribbon tied in a knot in all colors..
made it almost look like a corset top - HUGE HIT



The girls at the party- including mini me holding the wine glass we gave her- in pink said "30" and had glitter all over it


She was SO happy -- probably to have a get together, NOT to be 30.. she's still in shock over that one

My fave part of this picture? Lil muffin in the bottom left corner.. look at her face!

The party hat was a hit... DOLLA TREE where else?



CHEERS TO ANOTHER 30 years!!
I have some more pictures from this trip on our way home that i KNOW will intrigue you.. little clue..GYPSIES!
