Oh yeah You read it right. . .

I WON over at Just A Girl!

One of these!

It all started like any other night.  I finally went to bed around 11:30.  But then I laid there and played games on the iphone.  Not able to sleep I decided to get up at around 1:45am and do a little laundry.  Having to walk through the office to get to the laundry room I saw the computer.  It called out to me, "Tara check your google reader and email maybe even some meaningless searching for swagbucks!"  Well I was not about to fall for that old trick of getting on the computer and staying up all night!(well the rest of the night)  SO I just shuffled right on by with the laundry.  Ha Ha I showed the computer who's boss!  Well then on the way back this crazy thing happened. I found myself in the office chair sitting in front of the computer with the mouse in my hand!  Really!  So I decided since I was already sitting here I would look at my Google Reader.  I noticed a few Silhouette winners being announced on a few blogs and to my surprise I saw the name Tara at Just a Girl.  Well not to get too carried away I figured it was another Tara Because I have noticed a lot of us in Blogland lately!  Well then scrolling down I saw my blog header! Then I peed my pants!  okay not really but I could have!  Well if I tried.  Okay maybe not but I was EXCITED!  Thank You so much Chris!

We sure could have used it this weekend while making These

 More on these projects later!  I need to try and sleep this staying up all night is not for me!

 

Happy Thanksgiving Eve!

  I wanted to wish you all a wonderful Thanksgiving!  I hope you all have much to be thankful this year.  I wanted to share two things I am thankful for.  We were up late baking and getting ready for the Thanksgiving Dinner tomorrow and while waiting for the bread to rise I could hear Sunshine in the other room. 

She was reading out loud one of Moonshines favorite books to him.  

These are the moments I treasure!  You know the moments where they are not fullon UFC wrestling in the living room or nagging each other.  

Oh that is the timer the rolls are done!

Bye Bye for Now!

Fairy Birthday Food n Fun

 The Fairy Party was great fun!  We had a lot of fun making the theme food too!  We had egg mushrooms they were hard boiled eggs with half a roma tomato on top sprinkled with feta cheese.  We made Mushroom cake bites that were soooo cute and yummy too.  Granola was called pixie pebbles, we had woodland Strawberry Magicaide, Fairy berries, mixed Forest Nuts, Marshmallow on sticks were Pixie Puffs.  Carri did a great job with the fun names.

The party gift boxes were super cute with the glittery dots and al the fun stuff inside.

 I made a printable banner for Kylee.

 We hung woodland wreaths and mason jars with tea lights.

 This is what the centerpiece looked like.

 Sunshine dressed up like a fairy.

 The mushrooms were cookies Carri made.  People thought they were real Mushrooms. I hope you are inspired to make your own Woodland Fairy party.  It was a blast!
