...but the greatest of these is LOVE.

it's been a while, friends! we've been busy busy busy moving back to our house in Auburn. I thank you all for your patience with me lately, i know i've been slacking on timely email replies! We're still getting settled in, but making good progress...(and don't worry, north alabama customers - i am back and forth to Fort Payne a lot so i won't have to ship your orders to you!) Anywho, one of the biggest projects in the house was converting one of the bedrooms to be Ellie's room. It's still a work in progress, but here are a few snaps so far...

The title of the post is changes, and besides moving, i wanted to make mention of another change ---drumroll--- i am now accepting payment via PAYPAL!! woohoo! Welcome to the future, right?! I'm a little behind... but better late than never! Hopefully this will be much more convenient for all parties involved, so if you order something from now on, check your inbox for an invoice from yours truly!

BiRthDaYs!

Here's a few snaps from Ellie Parker's first birthday party!
I knew i wanted to do a ladybug theme, but couldn't find any cute decorations-

so, naturally, i made my own. It was such a fun day, and i still can't believe

my baby girl is ONE!

~~~

okay -- is this cake not the bomb.com?!? HoneyMoon Bakery in Rome, GA is

amazing. period. i sketched this cake on a sheet of notebook paper-and voila!

They made it happen...and yes... it WAS as delicious as it looks.

these are canvas panels that i painted to go behind the food/ cake table to bring some color to the space

cookies made by me, photo confetti is from www.photofetti.com

an adorable poem about ladybugs!~

Happy Birthday sign in the entryway

and there's the Birthday Girl herself!

So, there ya have it! A glimpse into our fun party day. As much fun as it was, i'm glad it only comes once a year...talk about a tired girl after that was over - and i don't mean Ellie!

If you're planning an event and need some art that's custom-painted to fit your needs to spice up the venue, let me know and i will be happy to work with you on creating a fabulous party atmosphere!
