School may be starting back but summer is still in full swing here in Texas and that means one thing… it’s H-O-T so naturally I would plan a garage sale… ehh…great idea, Ash!? Last week I had a purge fest going through closets and drawers and ended up with a pile too big to just quickly run to Grace, the donation center we like to support nearby so I decided I’d stick a sign out and see what happened. We have recently started teaching our 3 year old son about earning money to save for things he wants to buy by doing odd jobs here and there so I thought he would think it was pretty cool to have a lemonade stand at our garage sale to try to earn some money!

A couple of weeks ago we threw a baby shower for my dear friend, Shelby and her soon to be baby boy, Hampton Lee! Shelby’s husband, Kellan, serves as our church’s music minister so it was a church wide affair and we had a great group of girls to pull this shindig together. Shelby is using the colors navy and gold in Hampton’s nursery so we decided to go with that as a general theme. Scroll to the end of the post to see how I made the sign and clouds pictured above!

We celebrated our youngest, Beau, turning one in early March with a Peter Rabbit themed birthday party. With Easter being right around the corner I thought it would be the perfect time to share it with you! Initially I hadn’t planned on using the party décor as my Easter décor as Easter was still a couple months away. I was excited when I realized that many of the party decorations could double as my Easter décor and believe me… I’ve NEVER been two months early to anything! I have always loved Peter Rabbit and it made it even more fun that my three year old was really into it too (thanks to the Peter Rabbit movie which is adorable if you haven’t seen it yet)! As a mom of two boys I know my time is limited to have “sweet” party themes before they start having opinions so Peter Rabbit it was!
