Baby Shower

Last weekend I had the good fortune to co-host a baby shower for our favorite pals, Cati and Arne. Cati and I go way back to the summer 2001 or 2002, when BFF Marie and I lived on Boulevard. Cati and Marie were friends from schooling at Agnes Scott and traipsing around France together. She left for San Francisco before I did, met and married Arne (girls rock movie!!!) and now they are expecting a little one next month! Cati is unstoppable and fabulous so we were so happy to put together a shower to celebrate both Cati and Arne's awesomeness. Dino and Sierra opened their home and fed us delicious foods. Their two kids helped with decorations. I contributed invitations and Jenn brought crafts for all of us! She brought awesome fabric scraps and plain onesies for us to decorate using irons and fusible web stuff (can't remember the name of it... will update soon!). I made the eggplant one because Cati has a tattoo of an eggplant on her hip- perfecto! Everyone had a great time! Hooray!

Mirror World Is Back!

WOW!! Due to overwhelming response, Parker has finally brought back Mirror World! I'm sure it has everything to do with my big fancy blog and tribute gallery! Hahahahahaha.... whatever; I don't care what prompted him to bring it back, I'm just happy to see it! Visit the real Mirror World or my knock-off gallery.

You can read my original post about Mirror World... with a bonus photo of Parker that I took. And here is a new favorite photo from his collection and an old fave, too.  

Pretty Music Studio

Our friends built out their detached storage shed into this beautiful music  studio. Both Amanda and Bain play music and have kids, so it's a great place where they can turn up the volume while not waking the kids. My favorite feature are the floors and the wood trim. They are reclaimed wood that Bain acquired from Athens' local floor guy, Doug Booher. 

Help a Mother Out!

The big party for Help a Mother Out was on Sunday at the Peekadoodle Kidsclub and it was a great success! Over 17,000 diapers were collected and everyone had a blast! I even won a raffle prize... an awesome collection of MY OWN vintage stamped envelopes and notecards! Yep, I won my own raffle prize! Once they realized it, I was given a 90 minute massage at Relaxmith... so much better than stamps, right?!

Amber, from wiz bang photography set up a great photobooth. We got our photo taken! Check out her HAMO post with some great shots of other kids and families in the photobooth HERE. Big thanks to Julie Michelle from iliveheresf for getting me involved!
