Happy Easter Everyone!

Easter this year was a little chaotic for us.

We went from splitting Easter, between his parents and mine, to having EVERYONE (and I mean EVERYONE) at our house. Brothers, sisters, nieces and nephews, all totaling around 20 people.

Now keep in mind, we have a small house there was no way we were going to have a sit down lunch with that many people indoors.

Thank god the weather was decent this weekend! We were able set up a nice big long table for everyone in our HUGE back yard. I swear to you our backyard is bigger than our house. That's just how the story goes I guess.

From a potluck lunch, to an Egg hunt for the kids and lots of pictures with our photo backdrop (Thanks to Twisted Bridge - ME.) you can say Easter 2019 was pretty amazing. 

Nothing is more important than family time.

I know we've seen this hack before, but I wanted to share my version. 

I turned our guestroom into a 'Babe Cave'. Trust me, its exciting as it sounds.

And well, I needed a cute (cheap) shelf.

A little spray paint and adhesive paper and bam!

First I spray painted the legs. I got a cheap black spray paint from Lowes. Nothing fancy. 

Then I ordered this marble adhesive paper from Amazon. And let me tell you, this stuff is amazing - thick, shiny and classy looking.

Let me know what you think! I love love love it. 

Before and After

 Babe Cave Setup

Party decorations and putting together cute photo backdrops are all the excuses I need to have a get together. This was a very last minute 'hey let's get the kids together for Valentine's Day' shindig. I am lucky two of my closest friends have kiddos close in age to Violet - I mean they are all 6 months apart, and I love it! A quick trip to Dollar Tree and Walmart, and we were in business. I was able to use stuff from home for the backdrop too, so it worked out great.

Hope you all have a fun Valentine's Day and celebrate LOVE.
