I cannot wait to make these! Even though they look a little boyish, Teeter is SO into dinosaurs right now. In fact last night at supper, she talked for the entire 45 minutes about T Rex. It's so adorable when she says it because it is Tarex to her. Anyway, Tatertots and Jello posted a dino tail sewing tutorial the other day. To die for! I cannot wait to make these! My nephews might be getting some in the mail too! (And my ultra girly neice too if she wants one)

Siblings
The Pioneer Woman did a photography assignment called Sisters. Where various people send in their beautiful pictures representing, in this case, sisters and at the end of the week she picks a winner. Looking at the pictures got me missing mine.
*Janet Wisner took the photo of us.
These are my siblings (and me). They. Are. Amazing. Period.
This picture is totally us. A reserved and quiet brother and the three crazy sisters.
Without these people in my life, I would not be who I am today.
Not to be cliche, but they complete me.
I love you guys so much!
Thanks for rocking!

Safety Wristbands
In preparing for our big family vacation this summer, I decided that having something on the girls should they get lost would be a good idea. With one adult per child, I don't anticipate anyone getting separated from the group, however, I would rather be safe then sorry. It's a big place with lots of people.
I came across these silicone wristbands. They are similar to the Livestrong bands, but they're little so they will stay on a toddler's wrist. And they say Call My Dad! or Call My Mom! or If You Find Me Call...then it has whatever phone number you provide. Or you can come up with your own saying. For only $7 I was completely on board! They have a variety of colors to pick from and they look fun to little kids so they will want to wear them. You can find them here.

P.S. Today I got a sneak peak of the girls' Disney shirts before they shipped out. Don't you love them? If you missed the post about Hang to Dry you can find their shop here.

Summer Vacation
This summer we are taking the girls to the Happiest Place on Earth! They don't know yet. We would never hear the end of it, so we are waiting until much, much closer to the actual trip to tell them we are going. Our first full day there we will be having breakfast at Cinderella's castle with all the princesses. So my intial thought was to get them the dresses of their favorite princess to wear to the breakfast. The more I thought about it...Florida is really hot and humid. Even if we changed them into shorts and t-shirts after the meal we would still have to lug the dresses around Magic Kingdom all day and we plan to stay for fireworks. So I am strongly considering having these adorable t-shirts made for them! How cute are these!? They're custom, they can wear them with shorts, and they're half the cost of the Disney princess dresses at the Disney store! You can find these and a variety of other custom wear, here.

Ribbon Roses
Aren't these beautiful?! You can buy them here for actually a really good price. And she's offering 15% off right now, but can anyone tell me how to make these? I would love to make some headbands with these fabric roses for my girls. I love the vintage flare that they have.

Valentine's Day & Fruit Stickers
Sorry I've been MIA! January and February were/have been super crazy busy with cake orders and what not. I hope everyone had a wonderful Valentine's Day. Tuck and I celebrated over the weekend, and I was honestly my favorite Valentine's weekend to date.
Friday, Tuck went home from work early. On his way home he stopped and bought glitter markers, glue sticks, stencils, construction paper, safety scissors, etc. Little did he know that if he would have opened our hall closet all those items and more were sitting their waiting for his use. Hello, have you ever met me?! But the fact that he went and bought all that really, really warmed my heart. Then he went home and helped the girls make Valentines for me. He cute huge hearts out of construction paper. The girls colored them and glued things on. They were the best Valentines ever! I LOVED them!
He also got me a big heart of Dove chocolates and a really sweet card that made me cry. I got him a heart of Ferrero Roca, his favorite, and a funny card. We both got the girls some candy and cards. Then we made Julia Child's Beouf Bourguignon, together. It turned out better then the first time I made it! Then we ate and played Skip-Bo together. It was the perfect Valentine's Day!
Look at these fruit stickers from Twig and Thistle. My girls would honestly love these more then candy!
