JD's Robot Room Feature

Yesterday I received another wonderful email from Carrie of Apartment Therapy letting me know that now JD's big boy robot room was being featured on Ohdeedoh! I was thrilled about the feature, but even more thrilled about the emails I've received requesting more information on our decor purchases and re-purposing projects. Thanks for the feature Apartment Therapy!

From Follower to Friend

I've been blogging for almost two years now and I have been through good days, bad days and sometimes all around I want to quit days; but Friday I finally felt like no matter what, it was all worth it!

After JD's 1st birthday party a wonderful women named Kristin contacted me for ideas for her son Coop's carnival birthday party, it turned out that we not only had a love for planning the perfect carnival party, but a lot of other common interest and we actually only live about 20 minutes away from each other. We started an online friendship, exchanged emails on a weekly basis and even recently met up at a local flea market!

Friday Kristin started a new weekly feature on her blog A Simple Klassic Home called "You Inspire Me" and my blog was her first feature! Although I was really honored to be featured, I was more honored to read how she felt about me and about our friendship; as I read her post it brought tears to my eyes not only because it was so sweet but because I feel the same way about her. Kristin is an amazing and creative busy mom of two, who definitely inspires me on a daily basis and I thank God that blogging has brought us together!

I just had to share the Mygrafico.com post from Hostess With The Mostess, because it's not only one of my personal favorite websites, but is definitely an incredible resource for all your graphics needs! I first came across Mygrafico.com when planning JD's 1'st birthday party and I've been hooked ever since, especially since they're cute, inexpensive, easy to use and you get them almost instantly. Please visit HWTM for her awesome feature on Mygrafico.com today. Here are a few of my recent purchases, I bought them all during their 40% off sale a couple of weeks ago.
