First of 3...

Yesterday we had a little playdate for Madelyn's birthday. I wanted an excuse to make her a cupcake caterpillar and it was her birthday in 8 days so there we go. Unfortunately due to previously mentioned health drama and a miscommunication about the day, Denise, Reese, Craig, Chris and I had to eat the cupcakes all by ourselves. Let me tell you, it was really hard..as a matter of fact I am still suffering through and eating cupcakes.


It's a caterpillar!

Madelyn doing what she does best...cheesing for the camera

Denise and Reese

We had a great time, the weather was gorgeous and Madelyn had a blast almost eating the leaves. She would crinkle them and take them to her mouth and then drop the old leaf in favor finding a new one. I'm sure if Emmalyn had been there that Madelyn would have chowed down on leaves, but without her partner in crime she just wasn't brave enough.
Speaking of Emmalyn....HAPPY BIRTHDAY!

I am so bummed that I couldn't be there to help Madelyn celebrate her special day! Her twin, Emma-Kay missed her. And it goes without saying that Ian did too. I'm glad that you had good weather for her! And the cupcakes are super cute! You did a good job with them:)

Where to start?

This is a welcome home sign that somebody put up on base. I'm sure the Marine recognizes himself in the picture as do all the Marines that know him. There is just so much wrong that I don't know where to start. Is this sign from a jealous girlfriend and wifey's on the bed of a pick-up truck on her way to Mexico to be sold into slavery? Is this sign from his brother who took "care" of wifey while he was deployed? Is this just a sign from the wifey who likes to advertise that she is lazy and fat and probably has cracker crumbs and bugs in the bed because this sign has been up for several weeks. I won't even get started on "the ice", like there's only one ice? I bet it melted really quick. Maybe it's on the ice in Alaska? Or on the ice on the boat that she bought with deployment money and is sailing around on with the brother? OK, it's making my brain hurt because it doesn't rhyme or flow. It's just a bunch of statements on ...

All Dressed Up!

It's All Dressed Up Wednesday with No Model Lady It's just a fun day for us to get dressed up and share it with the internets.  Today I did a little casual outfit that I've been thinking about for a while.  It's not super creative, but I LOVE this shirt and scarf combo.  Feeling pensive in the backyard. Feeling like a picture with heels sinking in the grass! This outfit was really all about the shoes.  Because it's always all about the shoes. This is how silly I felt posing in my backyard with a mirror propped against our glider bench. Shirt and scarf combo: Kohls Jeans: Levis skinny Shoes: Macy's clearance Earrings: Charlotte Russe Bracelet: a gift from my lovely Denise Did you play?  Wanna Play?  Head over to No Model Lady and link up!
