I'm a little light on the Instant Adventures for this past week because, well, there was a surprise party for my Mom being planned and preparations for Lauren and Chandler's Engagement Brunch...on the same day! Needless to say, this weekend was wild and lots of fun!
1. The gorgeous bouquet I got for my Mom's birthday on Tuesday
2. A photo of our memo board at home with the very special addition of Lauren and Chandler's save the date + the heart garland I DIY'd
I did find time to make a cute heart garland for a certain someone's birthday that coming up in May! I need to make 2, actually. I've got two wonderful May birthday folks that need some hearts! :)
I stumbled upon Alana Jones-Mann's wonderful blog and saw this pretty garland that I just had to make! And this pretty heart backdrop and this marquee light heart and so many other awesome projects to try!
So...about my Mom's surprise party...My aunt had been planning it for a little while but because my Mom's birthday fell on a Tuesday this year, my aunt held off the party for the weekend after her birthday - which led to hilarious sitcom-style anguish from my Mom because this was the big 6-0 for her and she wanted a big blowout! But she was expecting it the weekend before her actual birthday, not the weekend after!
She complained to everyone that my aunt wasn't doing anything for her and I had to hear all about it last Saturday, which led to the impromptu visit to Lips on Sunday, the bouquet on Tuesday and a whole lot of secret-keeping. Thankfully, she was definitely surprised! I didn't take any photos (bad blogger!) but others took care of that for me! The only thing I got was the cake - which I glad to order because that meant I could choose what the message was! Heeeeyyoooo!
I hope everyone had a great weekend!
Happy Monday!
