One lovely day

 We were invited to my cousin's wedding in Ohio this summer.It was a lovely outdoor event in the afternoon.The weather was perfect,music was beautiful and the decorations were just lovely.Here is the happy couple-Mr. & Mrs. Horst.

 

 

This wedding was totally my style-burlap,country and lots of diy!!I had a lot of people tell me that it looks like my type of decor/wedding.My wedding was NOT like this tho!!I'd redo alot of stuff at my wedding if I could.But I'd marry the same guy!

 

They got married in a ball feild.The pics pretty much tell the story...

 

The bride is a great photographer.The guests signed a photo book full of pictures of the couple.

 

I loved the hay bales,tissue pom-poms and mis-matched chairs.

They poured paint over a canvas instead of doing the traditional unity candle or sand.

 

The "doorway" into the tent.Her father remodeled an old house for a couple and she got the old doors and windows.

 

The centerpeices were either twigs or Queen Anne's Lace flowers.Everyone had a green apple on their plate.The whole setting looked clean and relaxing.

Chips and salsa were served as appetizers.Aren't the jars cute?

The groom made the pergola-which the bridal party sat under.

They sat on mismatched chairs again.Notice the pom-poms made out of newspaper-so cool and CHEAP.=)

I love how the lights look like hearts on this picture.

The lovely bridal table-a mix of candles,vases and pitchers and bouquets.

The couple made the dessert tables from old doors.Aren't they gorgeous??I wanted to take one or both home with me.

 

Lots of deliciousness...

The simple and beautiful cake.This pic is bad,but it was pretty.

 

A few pics of our little family..

And last but not least,one of the adorable flower girls.She's a doll!!

 

Have a blessed day!!

Summer of 2012-Part 2

I got a new camera in May.An anniversary,birthday and Christmas gift to myself all in one package.

Talk about being excited!!Its a fancy one-I'm just learning how to operate it.I saved up $$ for half of it

and Hubby paid the rest,'cuz he's nice like that!!

My friend and I had a big fundraiser/benefit yard sale for the girl in the middle of the pic.She was in a bad 4-wheeler accident.She was out of the hospital only a few days befor this pic.

 

I went to Mississippi for my Grandma's birthday party and to clean her house in July.

                                          
.My family hosted a big family reunion(I won't post any pics-I took lots)..And snapped pics of this lil cutie,,,

 He got his first haircut.I really wanted to cry when we cut those lil curls!!They were so cute!Before...

                                    during the haircut process...he did NOT like it!!...

    and after.He still doesn't look happy.I don't blame him.Although,it is nice when people
    ask if he's a girl,now.I think he looks better with long hair-who votes yes??=)

                                                           The lovely little ringlets!!

                  Some days we stayed in PJ's all day and played and read books and cuddled...

                                    some days we made messes when learning to feed ourselves...

 

                                                    and sometimes the guys did dishes.

              ...and got into trouble a few times.I love the guilty,disturbed look on his face.
            Occasionally we'd clean up the house and take pictures of the decorations in the livingroom.

One Sunday afternoon we went on a drive.I was missing Nevaeh and felt so much better after seeing God's beautiful creation and thinking of Him.

                                          Kobe loves when I babysit this little cutie,I do too.

                                A few of our favorite times were going to the lake and fishing.

Stay tuned for pics of the party and wedding I talked about in my last post.
