This week has been so beyond crazy for us. We like to take on entertaining gigs to motivate ourselves to get things done. Oh, and also because we LOVE our friends and we love to play. :o) Work hard, play hard. That being said, we had a Memorial Day BBQ on Monday, we were preparing for our renters to move in this weekend (AKA finishing the basement), getting our boys and badges prepared for a stake Scout Court of Honor (today), and a Tea Party baby shower for one of my Nearest and dearest. With a few hiccups along the way, we have been able to get most everything done that we needed to. Here are a few shots of the shower. Thanks Carly for being the photog since I totally dropped the ball and took zero pictures.

The group. Carly, Liss, Makenzie and I did the shower together. It was so fun!
Our guest(s) of honor. Amy and Baby Girl!
Tea sandwiches (Kenzie), Fruit Pizza (Liss), Caprese Kebabs (Car), Lemon Raspberry Bars (Me) recipe for the raspberry bars here. Everything was so yummy!
My sister Katie and I made a sign for the shower that Amy took home and can use in her room if she wants. For one of the activities be had a bow/headband making station with ribbon, fabric, etc. to make a bow for Amy's little girl.
For decorations we used lots of fresh flowers, tea lights, cute tea cups and dishes, and candy. Carly also brought pretty lace runners and doilies that looked awesome with the decor. One of my favorite things about this house are the flowers that have popped up in the yard. I take no credit for any of it but it has been beyond fun to go out and just cut roses and put them in a vase on the table. Fresh flowers make it feel so homey and its awesome when you don't have to pay for them!
As for the other two things, our yard looks much better thanks to our BBQ (pics to come), our renters are moving in as we speak and the Court of Honor is tonight. I have all the merit badges ready to go and I'm excited for the boys. The funny thing about a busy week is that most of the time the next week is just as busy. :o) But I think a busy life is better than a boring one, don't you?
