Le Wedding// The Secret Garden Shower

“And the secret garden bloomed and bloomed and every morning revealed new miracles.” 


When you have a bridal shower it is somewhat of a blur. At the end you know it was wonderful, you know you enjoyed it, but you do not remember anything specific. You cannot recall exactly what the room (or backyard) looked like or all of whose faces you saw, it feels as hard to remember as a memory from years ago even though it was only a few short weeks ago.
But sometimes you have lovely friends who can capture your day just perfectly through a lens. Friends who give you a disc full of all your memories so you can refer to them and relive each detail.
These photos are from my dear friend Lisa's eyes, I hope enjoy a little glimpse into the beautiful world these beautiful ladies created for me.

I cannot handle all the beauty within these pictures. If you know me at all or maybe just have an idea who I am from reading this little blog, you would know this day was truly and perfectly me.
There are many more photos of all the lovely people who came that day. I figured I would have a separate post for it just so you do not get photo overloaded.
more very soon.

Good morning!

My friends are super talented. I literally love when I can get a little glimpse inside their brains. My dear friend Bethany made this little video yesterday and I just had to share it with you.

If this doesn't make you want to start your day off with a cup of coffee I do not know what will.

Head over to her site PeachPlumPear and look at all the lovely things she has been up to.

Wishing you a happy Tuesday!

I'm busy as a bee no sleep for me.

Sorry it has been so quiet around here this week, most of my days have looked something like this:

Yes, that creative explosion can only mean we have a show this week. So on top of making my fingers bleed to bring you handmade goodness, Greg is back in town and we are full force in wedding planning mode. Oh so many happy things.
Anyway, if you're free this weekend you should stop in and see us!

There are going to be LOTS of lovely people there and more pretty things than you can handle. Its a win win because its right at the public market so you can pick up your fruits and veggies and enjoy everyones work, yay!

Ok well as per usual I have things left to do so back to the sewing machine for me! Hope you can make it out!

PS! we are going to have a super special little guest at our table with us:) its her very first show so come see what she has been working on!

All together now.

I realized some of you only read my blog and do not follow me on other social media spaces so I figured I should let you know this happened a few months ago..

YES, HE'S HOME! my little brother is in the states, just got a new apartment, and is planning his future with my lovely sister-in-law to be:) I am so excited for him/them and this new season ahead.
For Easter this year it was the first time we were all together again so we had a little family photoshoot so we could update our family picture. (We have two new additions this year, ya know!)
So here is my silly family and to my sister-in-law I am sorry I take forever to post everything.

Always incredibly grateful for this growing family, one thing that never runs dry is love.

Le Wedding// showered with love.

“However many years she lived, Mary always felt that 'she should never forget that first morning when her garden began to grow'.”

Today is my bridal shower and I chose it to be themed after the Secret Garden. 
That was all I chose though, I have had to give up all my control (which has been killing me) and let the beautiful ladies in my life create something for me. 
I have no idea what magical world awaits me, but I can tell you that my insides are stirring with excitement.
to all the beautiful people in my life, thank you ahead of time, Greg and I are so truly blessed.
off to the garden,
