{organizing and party planning}


Sometimes it feels like time is just flying by me and I have so little to show for it! I am pretty excited about the slow progress that is happening in my house. Together my husband and I cleaned out a huge chunk of our laundry room and pantry (picture above). I know it's nothing fancy, but I really love it and it's so much better than before. I still want to add chalkboard labels to the baskets, but I'm celebrating even this accomplishment.

I'm also beginning the planning of my twins' fourth birthday party. It's almost three months away, but their birthday is the day after my daughter's first ballet recital. At first I thought it was exciting, but then I realized, what a mess! It looks like we'll do the big "kid party" a week earlier at either their gymnastics gym or one of those indoor-jumper-castle-party-room places. That's where we'll invite classmates and soccer teammates. Then we'll do a smaller home party for the family around recital time. I'm thinking something along these lines, but toned down a bit.

All that being said, I'm loving this post on energy. I need more!

But I did take the time out to make these on Monday morning. With the twins starting Pre-K 4 in the fall, I figure I won't have much more time for Monday pancakes!

{ bday party recap }

This is what happens when you give a child sugar who doesn't get it very often.



Luckily they had plenty of opportunity to "burn it off" since we held it at the local gymnastics center.

This woman turns 115 today! Some good genes, eh?
A widow since her husband, Earl, died in 1938 of a heart attack, she lived alone in their farmhouse until age 100 when she moved in with her son. Most of us aren't going to have 115 years on this planet- so what are you doing today to truly LIVE life to its fullest?

{ 32 years young }


Yup, today I turn 32! When did that happen?!? Sometimes I feel like I am still in my twenties - figuring out who I am; who I want to be. And then BAM I'm reminded that I am in my thirties - 32 years young!

I've got a perfect birthday planned - Bike ride & lunch with Will & Sam, yoga class and then a massage at the spa with my friend Jamie who has a bday tomorrow and then dinner with friends & family.

Leave me a comment and tell me how YOUNG I look and I might pick you for a fab prize package of 32 of my favorite things! Yup, I am bribing you to boost my self-esteem! :-) A girls gotta do what a girls gotta do!

* Thanks for all of your sweet comments - you know how to make a girl feel GOOD! The winner is Lovely Lindsay who almost shares the same birthday as ME! Lindsay - email me your mailing address!
