Can You Feel The Love Tonight

Today I was blessed to watch on my good friends from back in the day marry her high school sweet heart. Her day was absolutely perfect, and it rang true to her, through and through. The wedding was on the golf course and the entrance music was played by two baritones. "Can You Feel the Love Tonight" was played for the grandparents entrance, before they played the wedding march. After the ceremony we headed back inside for a beautiful reception and dinner. And to top it all off, Kailyn and her mom did a tap dance routine on the dance floor! It was a great time, and a perfect way to celebrate the happy couple. :)
 
Here are some pictures from all the wedding festivities:

 
Dinner with all the girls at the Steakhouse in Wichita! YUMMY!

 
Back to the Willse's house for Spa/Movie Night

 
Whitney and I with the beautiful bride, Kailyn! (post tapdance routine)

 
It was great to see Whitney again too! Definitely hope to reconnect again with these girls.

Little bit of happiness: Of course the wedding! It was perfect for Kailyn and Mitch, and it was great to see high school friends I hadn't seen in three years.

Lamps for JoJo

Sooooo true :)


The last few days mom and I have been working on doing the 2 lamps for her newly redecorated living room. Who would have thought she would be an excellent petal tracer and petal gluer. Haha. Here are some pictures of our finished flowers and one of the lamps... one more to go before I leave Buhler!




Little bit of happiness: Since I'm in Buhler, I paid a much needed visit to my chiropractor. Let's just say I was waaaay out of place and will be returning back next week on my way back through! He's a life saver!

Photo Friends


This cracks me up... I was next to the same two guys from 7th grade to Senior Year, and actually one was all the way from Kindergarten. We should have totally done this at some point!

Little bit of happiness: Slept in and then got some work done at school... plus its always good to catch up with old friends!

Amen, sister. Today I ordered my course textbooks off Amazon, but not before I found 5 novels by one of my new favorite authors for diiiiirt cheap... YAY!

Little bit of happiness: I had a lot of fun today with my good friends here! Went to the parade in the morning and then we went to the concert at night and hung out in the beer garden. GIRLS' NIGHT!!

50 Shades of Funny

So I finally finished getting through the first book of 50 Shades and thought I would share some e-card humor about the quickly imfamous trilogy...








Little bit of happiness: Spent the evening at the park hanging out with everyone while the guys did their favorite thing, BBQ. Good food as always, and it was relaxing to just sit around and shoot the breeze.

Trash to Treasure

One of my co-workers gave me old lamps to up-cycle.
So... after spray painting the base,
spending 2+ hours hot gluing hemp rope around the shade,
and then a few hours on making felt flowers from scratch,
here is the finished product....


And here is a close-up of the flowers: 



 Even though this project was super time consuming, I loved every minute of it and actually willing to say that I am proud of this one. Plus, I found a new craft I love making now, felt flowers!!

Little bit of happiness: We had the normal Wednesday routine of going to the Learning Center and then to lunch. Then tonight, we all got together for another yummy dinner! Always a great time spending time with friends.
