The Crafting Social {Orlando}

About 2.5 years ago, Sara and I took our internet friendship into the real world.

It was never awkward, it was just good.

So we both know the internet is real and filled with opportunities for people to get together in real life.

Since then we have both had this little nugget of an idea sitting in the corner of our minds.

We have both had our reasons for not poking that idea around over that time, would people want to come, schedules, having a baby, you know stuff.

But recently we both decided to throw caution to the wind, grabbed the biggest stick we had and poked that nugget right in the belly and we are super excited to present The Crafty Social {Orlando}.

We are inviting our Central Florida peeps to come for a night of mingling and crafting.

There will be an open house style mixer for 1.5 hrs followed by a paid seat crafting session.

The crafting session, for ALL levels of crafter, will include two DIY crafts, with one craft being presented by the UBER talented Sarah Hearts {people she has been featured in Better Homes and Garden}, and a swag bag that as it is right now is valued at around $90!!! 

You read that right, $90 swag people, now that crazy.

So hop on over to The Crafty Social {Orlando}, 

check it out and buy a ticket before the limited seats are gone!!

Hope to see you there!

So Fresh and So Clean

I have been wanting to get back into blogging more regularly for some time now.  After me saying this to Sara for like the thousandth time and not doing anything about it, she finally took the reins for me and took over my blog for a few days.  She basically took my blog to the spa, the Sara Spa.  Gave her  some new highlights, some fresh color on her and tweezed a few hairs here and here.  When I finally saw her, I recognized her but noticed she had a more confident strut about her.  A different sway  that has my mind turning.  Sara is new at this redesign game but really wants to share her talents with interwebworld.  So for an AMAZING low rate of $75 you can snag one of only three spots for a WHOLE new blog overhaul.  Which includes: a custom header, navigation bar, a social media set, up to 3 side bar buttons and a blog button with grab text box. {small print: Only TWO post design changes are included in this price, any more "oh can you change this or thats" will be an extra charge.  This offer is for Blogger and Typepad users only}  

So what are you waiting for?
Email sara.stofferahn@gmail.com to reserve your spot at the "Sara Spa"



XOXO
Now my blog and I are off for a date, I want to show her off around town.

A strawberry pickin we will go....

Saturday was one of those days, that as a Mom I knew was good for memories.

It was a crisp morning, clear blue skies, and plenty of strawberries ready for pickin.

Bug, Bean, and I met up with our friends Sara and Lilly, for what Lilly calls "strawbellies".

It had rained most the day and night before, which made for some fun muddy puddles.

Lilly will be a new big sister come May, so it is super sweet to see her watching Avery be a big sister.

Nolan thought we should buy some dirt. I think we had about much dirt in his basket as we did strawberries.

We filled three baskets with beautiful ruby red berries, for $7. I love shopping local, supporting small family owned businesses, and eating fresh.

Yep it was a good day for memories...

Ended up making lemon pound cake and making a simple strawberry topping...

Hope your weekend was filled with lovely memories....

Oh and before I go, I had a pancake request Sunday.

For Barbie.

Well, three tries and half a box of pancake mix later, she got what some might say is more a like a drag queen Barbie.

Notice that strong manly chin and what seems to be an adams apple?!

She did not care and was all smiles...
