Hello from Wrigley!

Woof Woof!  Meet our 1-yr old golden retriever Wrigley!  We got him from a family who was moving about two months ago.  He has soooooooooo much spunk and energy!  I just looove his puppy ears!!
  
 
 


Birthday in May

Ok so yes it is June and yes I am posting this now!  Eeps!  The fiance had his birthday in May and I wanted to take him on a little picnic but the weather was extra-icky and cold.  My solution... Indoor Picnic!!  A million times more fun!  I used a spare bedroom in our house and picnic-ed it out!

{Snacked on a caprease salad, brie-n-crackers, jarlsberg cheese dip, fruit, olives, and shrimp cocktail!}


{The CAKE!}
I got the cake recipe from one of my favorite foodie blogs Deb's smitten kitchen!

{The aftermath...heh.}

Such a fun night aside from wrigley peeing on Colin's leg because he got a bit too excited, me breaking a hinge on a door and Colin spilling wine on the carpet!  Haha!  It's gotta be memorable right!?

Auction for a Cause!

Back in April the family of a little girl named Ali hosted a benefit for her to raise money to help with medical costs associated with Tay-Sachs.  A local carpenter built the cornhole boards and I added the paint.  The event was pretty amazing with a good deal of money raised.  I also had a lot of fun painting these boards!

 

 

A Weekend in South Haven, Michigan

A wonderful weekend!
Sun, sand, scooter rides, hammock, beads, new earrings, laughter, vino, boardwalk, light house, sea glass, driftwood, good eats, knitting, ominous skys, running in the rain, crazy dogs, and great company! 



 
Earrings I made while waiting for the rain outside to die down.

Thank you to Wendy, my "sister-in-law-to-be," for being such a gracious host!  Can't wait until our next visit!!
