2014 in a nutshell post

New Years in Atlanta came and went. Girls days are always grand, and all of Mrs. Meghan's parties were so much fun. Nashville for the bachelorette party was a BLAST, and celebrating my twenty seventh
birthday more than once made me realize just how lucky I am. A quick trip up north for my boyfriend's birthday, with a pit stop in Chicago (thanks fog) was just what we needed. I've celebrated a great friend's second child, and a childhood friend's beautiful wedding. Then we topped it off with the wedding of the year and things are only looking up. 2014 might just be the best year of them all...

• I know, I know... I broke out my favorite coral dress again, but I just had too.
• Today, we had a diapers and wipes shower for my sister and baby Reece.
• This was my first party to pull together, but I had lots of great help!
• We loaded up on everything purple, and the painting was done by a close family friend.
• Miss Meghan and I used the cricut for all the crafts.
• We found some great ideas online for the banners. 
• We had delicious sweet treats and lots of good food that everyone brought.
• Meghan and I made the cupcake toppers, but another family friend made the cupcakes. Here is her website. Everything she makes is so good, and such a reasonable price!
• We used paper straws at my friend Anna's baby shower, so I had to get some for today!
• She had such a good little turn out, and I am just so grateful to everyone who helped and who came. 

THANK YOU! 

Funnin' on a Friday.
