The First Harvest

My husband has been working hard in his greenhouse.
The radishes were the first harvest of the season. He decided to make a radish relish.
I just love how pretty the color turned out. I'm not really a radish person, but I can't wait to try it!
Nice job Sweetheart!

Haleigh's Bridal Shower

I made mini 1" cupcakes for my daughter's bridal shower a couple of weeks ago.
I didn't have time to make them from scratch so I used a box cake and it ended up making 100 - 1" cupcakes.
I took a photo of one next to a normal size cupcake to show the difference in size. They were so fun to make and I topped them with giant sixlets. Everyone seemed to enjoy them, they were just the right size treat.
 


Here is a photo of some of the mini cupcakes I made. So fun!

Valentine Decor

My husband made this beautiful frame for me for Christmas a couple of years ago. Normally I have this hanging in my bedroom, but I decided to hang it in my entry way for the main focal point of my Valentine display this year. This gift is very special to me.

I displayed just a few items in my entry way for my Valentine display, the frame Eric made for me with our wedding photos hang just above it.

This photo is a little fuzzy, but I just love this little craft.

I found this cute treasure at the local craft store. It cost less than I could make it for, and it saved me time.

My sister made this pillow and I thought it looked cute in the display. She is very talented and makes the cutest pillows!

This was another treasure that I didn't have to make! I love making crafts, but I love it even more when I stumble across something really cute that I just have to have!

Young Womens Bookmark Project

We made bookmarks at YW Tuesday. I had the girls decorate child size headbands with flowers and bling. This one is an example I made for them to follow, but I encouraged them to be creative. Below is what each girl came up with. It was fun!

LDS Young Womens Birthday Gifts


Last year we gave out these cute teddy bears I found on Oriental Trading's website. I put them into celophane baggies and added a tag that read "Have a Beary Happy Birthday". The girls really seemed to like them.


This year I wanted to do something regarding Owls since they have become so popular again. Our budget is much smaller than last years so I had to get creative. I found this cute image online and added a caption from the Primary Birthday Song, "Look "Who's" older and "Wiser" too, Happy Birthday to YOU!". I also used cute little blue sticky back crystals for the eyes. I included 4 Laffy Taffy in the bag then decorated with the Owl and a small touch of ribbon. Hopefully the girls will enjoy them!
