If you have been reading my blog, you might mistakenly think that I don’t celebrate the 4th of July. That isn’t the case at all. It just crept up right after Girls’ Camp and in the middle of helping my SIL to get ready to move into her new house (a mile away from me, […]
Like A Lighthouse Girls Camp Craft
July 2, 2009 by 21 Comments
First I’d like to thank everyone that answered my call on this post for ideas. I really did use your comments to help determine the final design of this project. Our theme was navy/nautical this year, so the lighthouse was a recurring symbol through out camp. My goal was to make crafts with a function, […]
Back From Camp…

…physically, at least. I am still in a bit of a fog, but will post our craft projects soon! I didn’t sleep at all the night before camp (long story involving technical difficulties), so on the first day when they brought around these ships for us to name and hang up on our cabins (NAVY-themed […]
More Wedding Fun-Carnival Style

If you liked the unconventional circus wedding I just blogged about, you have to check out this Carnival wedding. It’s just a touch more traditional, but screams fun with the fish toss, photo booth, and—did I mention—ferris wheel??? Lots of candy and eye candy in this post!

Creative Circus Wedding
June 25, 2009 by 6 Comments
I haven’t blogged about weddings too much, but that is mainly because I am getting old and most of my friends and family are already married, so I’m not as involved in weddings lately. There was a time a few years ago, when I was pretty much a full-time wedding planner. Only…I didn’t get paid. […]
Girls Camp Crafting Craziness
June 23, 2009 by 6 Comments
This is just a portion of the insanity that has taken over my house in preparation for Girls Camp this weekend. I am the camp craft director and had to come up with 3 meaningful crafts for 100 girls (12-16yrs. old, mostly). I have a budget of roughly $0.83 per craft. It’s all coming together, […]
Final Father’s Day Post…(for now)–Dad’s Favs
June 20, 2009 by 1 Comment
While we are doing some of the tie cuteness I posted about here, for my husband for Father’s Day, what he really wanted was a golf lesson. His lesson was this morning, so I can go ahead and blog about how I presented his gift to him, and share some other dad/guy ideas. I probably […]
Kira’s Insanity
June 18, 2009 by 4 Comments
I left my 8-year-old alone for a few minutes in the kitchen, where I had some craft supplies I had neglected to put away and this is what she proudly showed me when I came back:I don’t even have to explain it to you since she labeled everything clearly. I’m not sure what we call […]

Miscellaneous Craziness…
June 14, 2009 by 2 Comments
That is how my brain feels at the moment…miscellaneous and a bit crazy! Here are a few random things I wanted to share: 1–Remember the light house craft I showed you a while back? Well, the time left before girls camp is growing short, and I still have a lot to do to get all […]
