I know I'm behind...

But what can I say?!  We got hit with a nasty bug at our house and managed to pass it around all four of us :(  Anyway I just wanted to share some photos from a fun event I had the opportunity to attend.  My sweet friend Holly Hanks http://www.phemomenon.com/ invited me to join her at The Winter Warm Up event on March 6th at Log Haven http://www.log-haven.com/ in Millcreek Canyon. 

It was a free girls day with fabulous swag and lunch at Log Haven-how could I say no.  We were blessed with lots of yummy food and fun company plus we had the distinct pleasure of listening to Dr. Meg Meeker speak http://www.megmeekermd.com/.  She is a pediatrician, mom and best selling author.  Check out her site for some fabulous insight. 

The event was sponsored by KAZ (Vick's products) so we got to leave with some seriously cool swag, if your a mom to sick kiddos like me that is:)  All in all the day was a success.  I got to spend some time with a couple of my favorite girls!  Thanks again Holly.

Another view of the swag.  Only a mom to an asthmatic child would be as excited as I was about a new humidifier and a sweet behind the ear thermometer.  The humidifier is on it's way but the thermometer got it's share of use this week :(

One more for the road.  How can you not love this kissy face?!

Well that's all for now folks.

Over and Out

In a quote mood lately...

Thought I would share a few new to me quotes here.

"People don't buy what you do, they buy why you do it."  Simon Sinek

"At the end of the game the king and the pawn go back in the same box."  Simon Baker as Patrick Jane on The Mentalist

One more for good measure.

"The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other's welcome,

and say, sit here, Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was your self.
Give wine. Give bread. Give back your heart
to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.
Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life."
Derek Walcott

that's all for now :)

Sweet little girls...

Well hello Internet!  I wish I could say it was a lovely spring day but alas it is not :(  The sun is shining which is a bonus but spring is no where in sight.  Luckily I have some fun photos of 2 seriously sweet little girls to keep me busy for now.

Meet Big Sis.  These 2 year olds can give me a run for my money but oh my isn't this worth it?!

Now meet Little Sis.  We worked hard for that little smile-but again oh so worth it!  Plus how can you not love my new little chair!

How about a little vintage vibe?  I don't normally get into a bunch of Photoshop work on my photos.  I'd rather them speak for themselves but occasionally a fun little vintage wash is just what the doctor ordered.

Look at this great hat I found in your dress up trunk!!  It even matches my shirt perfectly :)

This photo is particularly special!  These sweet little girl's Daddy just left for 3 months of basic training.  That's a really long time when you're so little.  Their amazing mama has it under control but she definitely deserves a gold star!  And that's coming from a mama who's hubby was only home 3 days last month :)

Thanks for popping in!  Wish there were some flowers popping up!
