baby shower

On Saturday my mom, aunt, Heather and I hosted a baby shower for my cousin Kristin. I wrote this blog post back in July about how they had been approved to adopt. Well, right before Labor Day weekend and a very selfless woman chose them to adopt her 5 week old little boy. You can definitely see God's hand working through their adoption journey that lead them to sweet baby James. We had so much fun planning, buying presents and decorating for the shower. It was wonderful to see it all come together. I took James' baby pictures yesterday and posted them on my facebook fan page. He's such a little stud muffin. Here are a few pictures from the shower!

DIY: BOWS

This is a fun and easy DIY that my sister and I did earlier today. These bows are perfect for Christmas. You can create beautiful bows from pages of magazines or your left over wrapping paper scraps.


STEP 1: Cut the into nine 3/4" strips of the heights shown.
STEP 2: Twist each strip to form loops at both ends. Make a circle out of the smallest.


STEP 3: Secure the ends with a piece of double stick tape.
STEP 4: Repeat with all strips of paper.
STEP 5: Layer and stick, starting with the longest strips. End with the circle in the center.
