Baby Shower for Julie

This weekend I threw a baby shower for my good friend and co-worker Julie.  It thrilled my heart to be able to do this for her!  I’m so excited for baby Allie to be here!  Ever since I moved to Fort Worth almost 5 years ago Julie and I have worked together.  She has always been so good to me and I’m so blessed to have her as a friend!

It was the first shower I’ve ever thrown solo.  So I was nervous that everything would turn out okay….but I was also super excited for some PINK 🙂  Yay!

So here are Julie’s shower pictures….

Love you Julie and sooooo happy for you!
May the Lord bless baby Allie and be with you as a new Mom! 
You will do great!

Girls Night Out!

With kiddos that is…..
Last night Amber and our boys met up at the Olive Garden for dinner.  They boys ate their weight in bread sticks and alfredo & the Moms got some fab drinks! I wanted to get together and check on my gal.  She’s doing so well and staying so strong after everything that’s happened in the last week. 
The blogging community has been so wonderful & I know Amber was so thankful for all the donations received for her and the boys 🙂  You all are so amazing, the way God works through this community is even MORE amazing!  Such a blessing.  THANK YOU WITH ALL MY HEART.
Amber and baby Kaydon.  He’s getting so big already!
Connor & Kylon coloring and throwing silverware all over the restaurant

Look at that alfredo sauce dripping down their faces??? 

It was so precious.  Kylon was wearing a Thomas the Train shirt.  It had clouds on it and he turned to Connor and pointed to the clouds and said “That’s Heaven and that’s where my Daddy’s at”

Melt.my.heart.

Bless that child.  That made my day.

I had a great time Amber.  Know I am praying for you and thinking of you constantly and we are always here for you!  You have been such a blessing in my life and thank you for being such a wonderful friend!

Girls Night Out at Drybar

Last night I had the BEST time!  I got invited to a blogger event hosted by PlumLife and Drybar.  It was awesome ya’ll!  They were the best hostesses and treated all of us like royalty.  It’s so nice to have a night out and get pampered and it was great to meet other local bloggers as well! 

We had to do this first…..
 Belvedere Vodka drink bar
 The atmosphere was so relaxing and I just love that chandelier 🙂
