Adult Birthday Party

I am doing a link up with Kelly's Korner about adult birthday party ideas. My husband has a birthday coming up next month so I thought I'd get some ideas and share his idea of a perfect birthday party.

The theme would be the easiest thing to pick!

Man football food.

Maybe?

And this is a "cake" I had pinned for him on Pinterest.

But with Bud Light and orange ribbon. Gotta keep with the Auburn theme. :)









Limited Time Product

Hey y'all! For a limited time I'm carrying a new product in my boutique!!


I LOVE monograms!! Y'all can get different colors in this. If there's an image you'd rather have than a monogram then you can send it to me. These can also come in men's watches with their favorite sports team. Have a family pic you want on your watch.. I can do that too.. See.


Only 23.00. I will be placing a wholesale order for these hopefully by tomorrow. Email me to order and I will be sending invoices through paypal. These are personalized so they must be pre-paid!

Honey Boo Boo

Have y'all seen this show?


I usually don't post about shows but I happen to LOVE Honey Boo Boo. Lately I've been reading blogs and people are bashing the heck out of this family.

Granted they're a little redneck-ish, and they don't have the best manners, but they seem like a hard working family (Sugar Bear works 7 days a week) who love each other and have fun and appreciate what they have.

I admit sometimes their antics make me shake my head (mama's fork lift foot, YIKES!) but I'm reading things about how this show makes people feel like better parents because she's a bad mother, and how shows like this are "dumbing down America." Why are people so mean?

Compared to Jersey Shore and other reality shows I'd much rather my kids watch Honey Boo Boo with her dolla that makes her holla than anything else.

On a side note: How adorable is Alana in this picture? I LOVE her!

Back to School

My little cutie went back to school last week. 



A few first day pics.



I have a sweet little girl at home who misses her big brother terribly!! A trip to the play ground at Chick Fil-a eases the pain a little bit though.

She's been spending her days hanging out with Mommy. We're trying to savor this last year of it being the two of us at home all day every day because next year she will start kindergarten. Until then we're enjoying cuddling on the couch, watching The Lorax (multiple times a day), and of course photo shoots!!




My babies are growing up so fast but I'm so proud of both of them.

Sex-ed for politicians?

I vote a resounding YES!

Seriously? And he's not the only one ladies!!


And from Republican Mike Huckabee,
" I know it happens, and yet even from those horrible, horrible tragedies of rape, which are inexcusable and indefensible, life has come and sometimes, you know, those people are able to do extraordinary things.”

Seriously? Goodness gracious y'all!!

Thank goodness for this man!!

Ethan and Kaylee's first Auburn Fan Day!

If y'all have seen these pics on Facebook already just skip over this post!!

Ethan was so cute. He asked EVERY single football player we saw if they would take a picture with him. I usually make him POLITELY ask those sort of questions himself and he was so small and cute saying "Excuse me, can I take a picture with you?" He was star struck and it was adorable!










Kaylee did get in a few pictures with him, but not many. She is not a big fan of strange men, and her Daddy is not complaining about that, ha!

Ethan has been saying for years that when he grows up he doesn't want to play football at Auburn, he wants to be this guy:

Ethan giving Aubie a hug.


After these pictures Ethan was quick to let me know meeting Aubie was the BEST DAY OF HIS LIFE! 

We also got up close and personal to "The Man" as my husband affectionately refers to him:


Also- there are no pics of Ethan with Lutzenkirchen or Jay Prosch because we got those pictures at A-Day and Lutzenkirchen's fan line was crazy long and Jay wasn't in the same area with all the returning starters, he was in the room with the new players, so just in case y'all haven't seen them, here are those pics.



2 weekends left and it will be college football time!!
