Photo Scavenger Hunt

Design Mom posted about an idea that Katie Schultz had. She took her kids on a photo scavenger hunt. They walked around their neighborhood and took pictures of anything green they could find. What a fun idea!! I'm alway looking for fun activities to do with my kids and this may make the list.

Bonny Lass Jewelry

One of my fellow Utahetsy team members is having a giveaway for these
beautiful earrings!


Be sure to stop by her shop to see all of her gorgeous work!

Adorable measuring cups


My sister served a mission in the Ukraine. When she came home she brought us some adorable Matryoshka dolls. My daughter loves taking them apart and then nesting them back together.
I bet my sister would love these Matryoshka measuring cups (how cute are these?!). I think they'd bring some personality to any kitchen!

Treasuries

I always feel very lucky when something from my shop is chosen to be in a treasury.

One of my fellow Utahetsy team members made a beautiful treasury including my faith necklace. We really have some amazing talent on this team! View the entire treasury here.



And this treasury was a sweet one featuring hugs and kisses items from all sorts of wonderful etsy shops, you can see it here.

A little change on the Faith, Hope, and Love necklace

I decided to make a small change on the Faith, Hope, and Love necklace.
When I was photographing it I decided that I'd like a more neutral color,
and the pearl dangle came down just a little too far for my taste.

This is how it used to look:

And here is the updated version:





I hope you like the changes too!

13 years ago today

Let me introduce you to my sweetheart, this is Derek. We got married when I was 19, and looking back I realize just how lucky I was to find the perfect guy for me! He is such a wonderful husband and father, and the past 13 years have been the best of my life. I have been truly blessed to have him as a husband. I love you Babe!
