One Proud Momma

I am so sorry to leave ya'll hanging! It has been very busy around here!

My middle daughter Laci had her 30th birthday on the 30th :) I'm feeling quite old now lol

She wanted an ice cream cake, and this is it. It was really good! 

You only turn 30 once, and it's an opportunity to go all out with a full blown birthday party! 

The very next day, my baby girl Shae, graduated from UCF with her bachelors degree!!!

So very proud of this girl! She did it all on her own! WTG Shae!!!! xoxo

This was the day she introduced us to her boyfriend, at lunch before the graduation ceremony.

We like him! Aren't they cute?!?!

Hubby has more pics on his phone, like the one of both of us with her. I somehow didn't get one. That's ok I'll steal it later from his Facebook :P

So now that the important things are over and done with, I am free to blog away!

One of the first things on my crafting agenda is making new cushions for my wicker furniture. I ordered them last year, they were on back order so long that Home Depot cancelled the order :( which leaves me to taking mine apart, and making a pattern to make my own damn cushions! It may take awhile, but I'm determined. Even if I've never done this before. Wish me luck!

I'll see you soon with updates of some kind....you never know what I could be getting myself into lol!

Happy weekend!!!

XO

Cupcakes & Cannibals

Thank you all for the birthday wishes for Laci!

We usually go shopping and do lunch, but this year we did something different. Laci totally celebrated her birthday in true adult fashion, and had a job interview. (She got it!)

and then we grabbed a bit of breakfast, and stopped to get a few things for dinner.

Lace made lemon cupcakes....

and opened her gifts after dinner. Here she is with a wristlet from Diane's Dream Designs. It's so pretty, and in Laci colors!

See how cute it is?! My pics don't do it justice of course....I photo jewelry, not handbags.

I had Jennifer from Blue Wave Glass make her this mosaic pendant.

So cute, and so Laci!
And for her Big gift from mom and dad, she is looking at skates and derby equipment. We may have another Cannibal around here soon!

And....speaking of the Cannibals, here is a little clip I shot at the bout Sunday.


I'm working on putting all of my clips together in movie maker. I have some great footage of Shae jammin'!
I did get a few pics, too.

 They won the bout! 326 to 80!!!!! WOOOOO Go Cannibals! The next home bout is the end of May and I can't wait!

Now that I'm almost recovered from the last few days (LOL), I'll be back to blogging jewelry asap. And I've been collecting pics of weird Florida bugs for a few years and am thinking "You gotta see this"!

A Happy Birthday Music Monday

Today is a special Music Monday!

Today is Laci's birthday!

 My little girl turns 28 today, and even though she says No More Birthdays, that's NOT how it works!



Happy Birthday Lace! May you have many, many birthdays Sweetie!
