Oh the weekend.

For Tomorrow:

Four Seasons Market at Firewheel Towncenter.

Helping host a baby shower.

Sister's Birthday.

Packing to join David on a business trip.

It's a little much in one day,

but nothing that can't be done.

Luckily next weekend shall be

much. less. busy.

Maybe I'll get to read the book I scored

for a DOLLAR!

Simple Life.

And just because she steals my heart everyday:

.... still so busy

I'm still busy.

Still all consumed with 1st birthday party plans.

I'm trying to complete new pieces for the shop, but it's super slow at this point.

Did a photo shoot of McKenzie today with my lovely friend Erin.

She was so kind to offer to come help me...

so I didn't have to settle for some small portrait studio I don't want to use.

(money is tight)

It went so much better than expected.

There were balloons and laughter.

And the photos turned out super cute...

if I do say so myself.

This is from the end of the shoot, walking back to the car...

it's all that I can show due to family and friends reading my blog

I don't want to spoil any cuteness (full outfit or pictures) before the party.

...all my favorites will be posted next week.

I've gotta finish up favors and other such things.

And later on this week, 

friend Jessica is offering up her creativity  

and helping me with McKenzie's cake.

I leave you with the adorable cake she made 

for her sister's baby shower this past weekend....

So busy...

I've been super busy lately.

Getting new pieces done for the shop.

Last minute invitation crafting.

Party prep.

And of course trying to soak up and enjoy the remaining weeks of my daughter's first year.

I'm a mushy person, and an even sappier mother.

I've been brought to tears by party preparation, thoughts of party day, moments of remembering her birth and those first weeks, and just watching her and the way her 'play' and interaction with us and others has changed.  

She's just growing so fast!

.... Friday Feature will resume next month, and maybe another giveaway too!
