What We Have Been Up To


We took a little trip to Fred Howard Beach last weekend since we haven't been there in a while. The beach was wonderful, and the water was just cool enough for relief from the muggy heat we've been having. Here is our shell princess castle we made and soon destroyed.
look at my little babies, they are growing up so fast! It makes me happy to get pictures of them together, getting along, I hope these moments will last forever.

Grace and I decided to make some new flower clips for her hair, since she lost her favorite pink one. Her life is full of drama. We went to pick out a new pink flower and ended up getting one of each color, since princesses need every color. When I tried to take a picture of grace with the new clips, Elliott decided he NEEDED to be in the picture. So we gave him a flower, but then he insisted if one person was getting their picture taken, everyone needed to get their picture taken... including daddy... notice the shorts.
look how pretty they turned out! yay for cute hair flowers!

and just for the heck of it, here is my newest BIG project. This is one of our new rooms for the church nursery. We just got everything moved in, now it's time to decorate and design. It was such a quick move I didn't get to do the decorating and designing before everything was moved in. I really like this new room better than the last, and so far it's worked out great for kids church. Should be a fun project!

So that's the latest! more to come i'm sure!:)
