4th of July Flapper Dress

Hello friends!

I hope you all have some fun plans for celebrating our Independence day.
I wanted to make something special for my girls to wear. The only place to buy some outfits here is Walmart and that means that everyone else in town will have the same stuff and because I am a procrastinator I didn’t order anything online.  So, I decided to make something.  Now I’m NOT a person that sews.  I don’t usually enjoy it, BUT I do know how to sew and if I can do this so can you!

Our Guest Post at The Best Blog Recipes

We had an awesome opportunity to guest post over at The Best Blog Recipes.  I love the concept behind this blog.  Shauna scopes all the best recipe blogs and re-posts the very best and favorite recipes out there.  That keeps me from having to spend a huge amount of time hunting for great recipes.

We shared a family favorite of ours; a delectable and rich cake with caramel sauce.

Just in case you didn’t see our guest post we wanted to pass it along to you.  You can find the recipe here.

Hope you are enjoying your summer.  It’s hot here today!

Make Your Own Memory Jar

This post contains affiliate links.

Do you have some special momentos lying in a box somewhere unseen and unremembered? Maybe some souvenirs of an unforgettable vacation or possibly pictures and keepsakes from your school days? Why not create some memory jars to display so you can remember all those meaningful times in your life.

I made a memory jar to celebrate the birth of my son and whenever I look at it displayed on a shelf in his room it reminds me how little he used to be and how grateful we are to have him in our lives.
