I love June.

...and the flowers in my garden.

AND...my iPhone.

Projecteo

Are you an Instagram fanatic like me?  If so, you may be interested in the tiniest projector, the Projecteo. 

Isn't it DARLING??  The wheels look like this...

Wouldn't it be fun to capture these images on a reel, and watch them at your leisure?

 

You can find all the info out right here.

T-Shirt Quilt

Once in a while, a reader will email me something that is amazing.

And that is what I'd call this T-Shirt quilt.  After going through all of my parent's clothing lately, I took the liberty to save a few items, and now I know I want to do this for sure.  Does anyone out there know where this kind of thing can be done?  She had no other information other than this photo, and neither do I.  But it's totally worth investigation, wouldn't you say???

 

Enjoy your day!!

Worst End of School Year Mom Ever.

Once in a while, I read something that strikes a chord in me so deeply that I need to share.

And this one did just that. To all you mom's out there that hit the ground running in September and peter out in May, I am the President of your Club. I could've easily written most of this article.

Our Zoo Field Trip 2013

Last week, I accompanied my son's school to the Cleveland Metroparks Zoo.  It was brutally hot, but oh, so worth the trip...

I decided to take my older son out of school so he could join us.  He is obsessed with dinosaurs, so I knew he'd want to see the exhibit they had...

These days are going by so quickly.  It seems just like yesterday, I was here with my older son's class...and that was three years ago...

 

So glad summer is just around the corner.  I'm longing for more fun days like these!!

Enjoy your day!

 

8th Grade Farewell Dance

I never got around to posting the collages of the Farewell Dance from our school's event a couple weeks back. Congrats to all these young adults as they enter into high school!!

I printed these collages out and have them hanging near the office of our school.  It was a pleasure getting to attend.  Best of luck to all of them as they start a new chapter of their education!!

Enjoy your day!!

More Grad Party Ideas

Ready for a couple more ideas to inspire you for your grad party??

How about a photo booth where people write in the year they graduated??  I love that idea!

I used this idea last year when I threw my niece a grad party.  A cookie bar, with a chalkboard sign reading, "She's ONE SMART COOKIE!!"

 I love how the balloons and photos served as a unique display for pictures.

 

Of course, don't forget this past blog post, or this one, about other grad party ideas.  LOTS of stuff to inspire you!!

 

Enjoy your day!!

 

Graduation Party Ideas

Tis the season for Grad parties, and this year, my bff Jen is throwing a huge party for her daughter. So you know what that means? We're kicking it into high gear...

Here are a few of the many awesome ideas found on Pinterest...

Celebrations At Home Blog found here.

Big Dog of Happiness had tons and tons of chalkboard grad party ideas found here.

These look fairly easy to make.  Just dip rice krispie treats into chocolate, and add a stick to the end!!  Top it off by adding ribbon to decorate and you're good to go!

I'm OBSESSED with this idea.  How awesome for pictures!!

And how about this idea using simple black and white photos with doillies for mounting??

And these decorative water bottles from Design Dazzle are simply made with duct tape.  How CUTE!!

More ideas tomorrow.  Can't wait to get started!!

Enjoy your day!!
