MY FIRST EVENT!



So My weekend has been crazy crazy busy- I don't think I've been this exhausted since the week the twins were born. It turned out beautiful! It was so exciting to see the vision come together. I spent at least 4 hours folding napkins and adding ribbon and wire to them. Another 2 setting place settings for almost 200 people. Adding things to the centerpieces folding the linens making the candy buffet. It was a lot of work but I loved every second and am so greatful I get to work doing something I adore. These are a couple pictures I took. The professional ones will be coming later. It was exciting to hear people as they walked in and said wow- and these flowers are beautiful- great food! This is so different. I then did the craft fair at Aubrun House on saturday- It went good! it helped knowing what peole liked more than other things- so I'm going to adjust the vinyl on my other boards to what sold on saturday- for the fair next week. I also think I'm going to make formula cans with choc chip cookie mixes inside- so it's wrapped like a gift- and make girls headbands- we'll see how the week goes- maybe even some wreath ornaments.Anywyas I had a lot of fun with the girls next to me-one girl did gift baskets and the other girl was doing Jewelery. brandon wrote a little about the shell kids party- I'm going to add some funny stories but under his post.

  1. Congrats on the event! I really don't know how you do it, girl! You are an inspiration because not only are you a good mom with lots going on but you have the time to BLOG!!! I have been struggling to keep up with posting lately so when I do post it has to be a lot all at once to play catch up! Seriously, I think you are wonder woman Bree!

  3. The party looks great, and your stuff at the craft fair was awesome, I am trying to talk Jordan into a bigger house so that I have more wall space, in the mean time my parents just moved and I am a nosey child and tell them what they should do to decorate their new home - maybe...

  5. I found your post while searching for girls headbands. Love the photo of your adorable babies. And how you manage to take care of them, and work wonders in the event as well - makes me exhausted just to think about it!
