Today I went to a surprise luncheon/party for my mother-in-law’s 60th birthday. My sister-in-law Jen (“TT”) planned the entire event so I showed up early to take some photos because I knew the table would be amazing. Her tables are always amazing! I loved the coral, gold and chevron accents. The party favors were [...] Pretty Party Table Decor is a post from: Lil Blue...

Ashley Hackshaw — Sat, 11 May 2013 05:01:44 +0000

The teacher found this note in Boo’s backpack today….that Boo had written to herself as a reminder: We aren’t quite sure when she wrote it…..but apparently it was to remind herself to tell her teacher that Mr. LBB put my new Mother’s Day coffee mug (made by Boo) in the dishwasher.

Boo’s favorite show on the weekend is Yard Crashers. When she saw her first episode she insisted that Matt Blashaw looks just like Mr. LBB….as I started watching for a second I was like “wait….is THAT Mr. LBB?!” They look so similar!
