My husband just returned from his six day business trip. I'm something like seven months pregnant and have a 2, 4 and 6 year-old, so over the last six days I've mostly been consumed with keeping us all alive and not melting into some hormonal sob/yelling fit. I mostly succeeded. To the parents that do this on the regular--major props! Earlier we posted some fun printable recipe cards that are oh-so-chic if I do say so myself. I mentioned that they would be a great addition to a wedding shower ...

Wedding Inspiration Extravaganza
Wedding season is just around the corner. Today I am linking up with lots of bloggy friends to offer all sorts of inspiration. Lets get started with my sister's wedding which we crashed here.

Wedding Crashing MOH Style
Is it crashing if you are the Matron of Honor and it is your sister's wedding? I don't know about you all, but I love weddings. The weather was beautiful, the ceremony was beautiful, the bride was beautiful. There was just a whole lot of beautiful going on. If you know Wisconsin or anything about Midwest weather you know that she is one lucky lady to have gotten married in March on an 80 degree day. These kinds of things just don't happen! The fact it was St. Patrick's day makes her that much ...
Family Friday: 5 Year Wedding Anniversary
Today we are celebrating the start of our family. That's right! My husband and I have been married 5 years!!
