Hi there! Just a reminder, if you are looking for our weekly Refresh Your Nest party it’s outside getting a {safe} suntan and prepping the Memorial Day grilling menu. 😉 It may be taking a brief hiatus but it’s open all month long so link up your great stuff from the past week here!
And don’t forget the monthly Summer Edition kicks off on May 25th with a special Perfect-For-Summer Recipe linkup alongside the regular projects. That’ll give you some time to get those recipes ready and posted just in time for Memorial Day. Plus I’ll be featuring all the great things you’ve linked up this month!
{sneak peek…}
For local friends, there’s a home consignment sale next week if you are in the area. It’s the first year they are doing it, I think it’s genius! Don’t worry if you aren’t local, I’ll be tweeting any good finds so you can shop alongside me. 😉
As for us, my parents are in town this week and the kids are sick. Guess which one is more fun? Noodle and Bee are so in love with their grandparents they’ll be just heartbroken when they leave next week. In other news, I made the mistake of posting this Mother’s Day idea thinking my mom wouldn’t see it. She did. Oooops! At least the Fairy Garden is still sorta intact.
Well, kinda sorta. You should see the other side. {not. intact. at. all.}
I’m also pulling together the tiniest family 2nd birthday party for Bee. On Mother’s Day. Who needs breakfast in bed when you can be cleaning the house? But for this little guy, I’ll do anything:
Um. And I’m running a 5K for the first time in 5 years on Saturday. I wasn’t nervous until I saw the awards ceremony is 45 minutes after the starting time. Which at my current pace means I’ll only have 15 minutes between finishing and the awards. Not that I’ll get any awards, BUT I could possibly the last one across! No matter, I’ll be stumbling across as they give the awards to the winners but at least I’ll be doing it in memory of Keegan, Jen, and Patrick– three beautiful angels gone too soon. I pray they find a way to Crush Childhood Cancer, once and for all.
And with those thoughts, I’m off to bed. Happy Friday, have a blessed weekend!

Happy early birthday to Bee!! My kids just all “ooo”ed and “ahhh”ed at his picture. “He so cute!”
HAPPY MOTHER’S DAY!!!!
Home consignment sale sounds SOOO FUN! I want to go! I hope your 5k went well 🙂
