I started putting up some Valentine decor a few days ago. I will add a bit more to what's up so far, I need some garlands. I am not sure if i will make it or buy it! I did make the framed pieces with BG Kissing Booth line.

Another Valentine page using BG Kissing Booth line-I am trying to use up these photos I printed last year, lol! I did the large letters with my Slice.

Kiela really wanted this pink guitar for Christmas, she came home everyday checking Amazon to see if it was still in stock. Santa was a lucky man; she would have hunted him down if he had not brought it.

A new hobby, crochet? Yes, I promised Kiela I would take her to JoAnn's to buy more yarn & needles today. I barely remember how to crochet or knit, I had to learn in 2nd grade-boys too! Both girls are trying to get the hang of it, I think I might have caught the bug again too...

Two weeks ago West Elm had their pillows on sale and I had a 15% off email-perfect time to get some new pillows for the chairs. Again with neutral tones & metallics! I am waiting on one more pillow that was on backorder. I really love the Mongolian lamb and I would LOVE another-when they are on sale again. Our new sofa came yesterday and it needs new pillows-I am hoping for another sale real soon.

Homecoming day didn't go as I had dreamed it up in my head, as usual! I was thinking that we would be all done and home in time to take lots of gorgeous photos outside with her friend-that didn't happen. The nail shop messed it all up for me, lol. I am not very good with taking indoor NIGHT photos. Thank goodness for my speedlite & some photoshop magic-I was still able to get some really beautiful photos of Amira...
