I’ve been running around all week trying to get ready for the big weekend. Miles’ sister is getting married in San Antonio and I’m the matron-of-honor while Makena is a flower girl. So I’ve been running in circles, or as my dad so eloquently phrases it ‘Jade, you’re like a dog chasing his tail.’ I do a lot of chasing my tail! Can anyone else relate?
With a weekend full of events coming up, I was in the market for a small handbag to bring along. As I was checking my flickr page I noticed that my friend Beki had posted pictures of a beautiful green and black handbag. I loved the contrast with the green and black fabrics. I rushed to her blog to see if she had blogged it. Not yet. My next stop was to her ETSY shop to see if it was there. Bingo! Found it before she could blog it and it arrived in the mail three days later. Beki’s got quite the following and I knew it would go fast. She even threw in a great button pin. Thanks Beki! Keep making beautiful bags sweetheart!
Good news here concerning Makena’s finger. Yesterday, the pins were removed and it looks really good! Now she starts rehab for the next four weeks and we go from there. It does look like it is healing, and that my friends is a miracle.
Speaking of contrast, this past weekend we went to Cousin Connor’s 6th birthday party. It was a reptile themed party and had a reptile guy as well. I kept my distance as the kids were in awe with all of the creepy crawly creatures that he brought along. And to answer your question, yes those are Makena’s boots and her feet were in them! Keegan was even enamored with the snakes. As he was trying to get a good look at this big snake, the snake slithered up to him and went right between his legs as one very nervous mama looked on. Eeek!
Have fun with all the upcoming wedding festivities!
