this and that

I realized that I had jumped on here only a few times in the past couple months and never even posted about Elsie's first day of Pre-school... sigh.
Here are just some snippets from the past couple months that make my heart happy and that I don't want to forget about, because I kinda already did until I uploaded photos.

We wanted to make Elsie's first day so special so she'd get excited about preschool. A few simple streamers, balloons and a boxed cake had her floating on cloud nine all day. Plus Vernon was super sweet about helping with the cake and singing "happy birthday" to Elsie when she got home. HAHAHA! I didn't dare spoil it for him that it wasn't her birthday. 

 so uhh, I don't care what anyone tells you. We hate Disneyland, I mean it's obvious right.

Elsie learned to stitch and this photo was taken right before my heart dripped on the floor because this whole experience melted it. She did so good and was so patient. Very proud mama moment indeed.

pre-school picture day. My mama and I made her a one of a kind dress for her first picture day. Elsie loved it, even though it didn't have a lick of pink on it.

I attended the Creative Tea Time a few weeks back, which was basically a glorious day of crafting while being served the most amazing food, sipping on the finest of teas and making new creative crafty friends. #amazing

Oh and they are having another event come January and tickets go on sale today. 

Creative Tea Time sold out fast the last time!  So, for those of you who did not get a ticket in time... this will be your chance.  

If you feel like getting gussied up and partake of delicious food all while being creative for a day, you must snag a ticket HERE 

Oh and if you follow along with me on instagram you know that in the past couple months I have been stitching up a few pieces here and there when time permits. Well, today I'm re-opening the shop with limited items. If you've been wanting a piece make sure to snag it especially if you're thinking "Christmas gifts" because I'm not sure how many more I'll be able to make especially with the holidays upon us.

Happy Monday!
