Father's Day

Father's Day is in a few days, have you thought about what you are going to get/do/make for the best man to your kiddos or even for your own dad? Here are a few of my favorite ideas I found in the world of Pinterest:

A book All About Dad
Free Download from Eighteen25

These are always so cute for your little ones to fill out.

This has to be one of the cutest books....All About My Dad from Paper Coterie

I love this quote for a "Papa"
 It's true my Dad brings so much joy to my kids life by being their Papa.

Cute candy jar idea with a free printable via {My Sister's Suitcase} 
Can be for dad or grandpa

I hope that you find the perfect gift or idea for Father's Day. If all else fails, a great big kiss a hug and a day that daddy can relax is the best gift also!

Until next time...

I am one for a good deal, and I thought I would share a few good deals I have come across this week.

You all know how much I love Paper Coterie, well, How Does She is having another FREE $15 credit towards any purchase. Head on over to How Does She to get your code. It expires on May 14th. Great gift idea for Mother's Day. I can't wait to order the book above "My quotable kids"!

The Queen's Bakery- Is having a great deal right now on Travelzoo for $20 for tea for 2 (a $46 value). So happy my friend V and I are going to have a date there. Remember my post here about this place and how much I loved it!

I love this groop dealz site, daily deals from boutiques. Love the chevron table runners they are featuring right now too.

Happy shopping for deals!
Until next time,

Special gifts...

Have I mentioned before that I have the BEST Mother-in-Love, I mean really she is! She came over to spoil I mean watch the kids on Saturday night (that's what Gamma's do best) and she came over with this cute little handmade mug cozie for me...

I love that she read my "wish list" and whipped this up in a day (see I told you she was the best!)

And the next day she was at our door with this YUMMY trifle, my absolute favorite!!

Thank you M-in-Love!!! I am so blessed to have you in my life. I love my gifts!

Until next time...

Wish List

This Saturday is MY Birthday!!! I doesn't phase me that I am getting older, life just gets better as the years come so I never mind celebrating a birthday! I grew up in a family that made birthdays a big deal so they were always special and a great, fun filled day! I plan on spending the day with my sweet little kiddos and hubby and a date night with the handsome man in the evening. I am sure my dad will be the first one to call bright and early in the morning! I love my dad, he never misses a beat when it comes to birthdays! So as I am approaching the strange number of 33 (I don't know why the two threes look so funny to me) my hubby wanted to know what was on my wish list and so I thought I would share (and hope that he reads this post too). Of course I know he will only pick one thing but at least I can give him a few different choices right?!?

Stamped necklace with kids initials from Vintage Pearl

Isn't this SO cute a knitted mug cozy from Etsy

Milk jug measuring cups from Anthropologie

Blue butter dish from Anthropologie



Fleur De Lys Tea Pot set from Anthropologie



Oh I love Initials! Such cute mugs from Anthropologie

I want to start collecting tea cups and have lots of them like my Mother in Love...hint hint :)

Birthday Gift

I have the hardest time finding unique gifts for my hubby, he loves sports but doesn't really collect anything. Usually if he wants something he buys it, so he is super hard to shop for and I always struggle to find personal guy gifts. However my good friend Monica solved that problem for me..she makes the most amazing totally personal wine/beer glasses. If you have an idea she can really make it come to life. I had an idea about an angels glass and WOW did she make it amazing...totally reccomend if you have a friend who drinks wine or know a guy who loves beer.

DIY Drink Coasters

Drink Coasters you can never have enough and after many hours on pinterest I found a great and super cheap way to make your own for any occasion.

A simple trip to Home Depot for white bathroom tiles...( only 16 cents each)  a bottle of modpodge and some scrapbook paper and you have coasters. First step cut scrapbook paper into 4x4 squares....Second step apply modpodge to tile stick paper and allow to dry...Last Step modpodge over scrapbook paper and presto!!! New Coasters..

Perfect gift idea for house warming...or placecards at thanksgiving.
