eyes, EAR, mouth and nose

I'm not quite sure how you injure your ear but of course Kingston found a way. It was pretty weird looking and swollen but he toughed it out. I am really sad I didn't take a picture when it was all black and huge.

Ryne & Tami's Reception

I love this picture of them. It shows their funny personalities.
Tami let me do her hair in the vintage Peek-a-boo style. Love!
Families are forever :)
Slooow dancing!
...and best of all it didn't rain!
Shelley {and fam} worked very hard to make the reception as beautiful as it was. Very nice job people!

the cow says moo

Kingston's favorite thing to do with grandpa is to feed all his animals. I love to watch him sign and say all their names. Moo Moo! LOL. Love it!

Shelley's Closet

I forgot to mention that the blue evening gown and my red sundress were from my mother-in-law Shelley's closet. In fact she wore the red gingham dress when she went to BYU. I love wearing something with a story! She is letting me continue to barrow the red dress because I told her I totally want to wear it again.

abc 15

Whippy Cake was featured on Sonoran Living this morning when Kristin (of Domestic Bliss) was a guest on the show to tell about the upcoming Vintage Market next weekend (May 15th and 16th).
They showed sneak peeks of their bungalow and products from some of the fabulous vendors including ME. Click HERE to watch the clip about the Vintage Market and the home tours. I know it's not that big of a deal but it feels good to be mentioned on live television. By the way GREAT job Kristin and thanks for the shout out :)

Until it hurts

I was just sitting here in my home, stuffing rag dolls and painting faces when I started looking around my sad messy house. When I say sad I mean neglected and tonight I realized that my neglect reaches all the way to my family as well. *super sad face :(

I'm thinking of my sweet Lo asleep next to me who is perfect and quiet all day every day who I haven't taken a minute to stare at and adore, my rascally King of disaster who is eager to learn and play with who I didn't blow bubbles for and mostly my impressive Bret who I didn't squeal and jump on when he walked in the door. I wish I could be more like Bret in every way. He is so responsible, determined, frugal and disciplined. I can't help but morn over my lost opportunities in the past to praise him and acknowledge all of his hard work because I was "busy". I'm saddened at my overlooked chances to squeeze and hold him till he's blue in the face because I was "busy". I feel like a fool when I realize I am living in the future and not in the present (one of satan's easy wins). How easily I forget that any distraction is a BAD distraction from what really matters. Stuff is stuff, things are just things but people are living human beings. I want to yell from a mountain "wake up and LOVE your family" loud enough for my own ears to hear. I want to stop time from ticking so I can give my family and friends the attention they deserve. I want to tell my husband how much I need him every day and make sure he believes me. I want to go for walks with our children and laugh and play. I want to show my family I love them EVERY day. I want to kiss and hug them, play with and love them, laugh and cry with them, and spend ALL my time with them. I want to admire and appreciate, encourage and advocate, and adore them in every way. I want to ponder all the ways I can make them happy until my brain hurts. I think I will start today. I love you baby and I want to be better.
ily,
-wifey

ps. Obviously I am not ashamed to LOVE in public.
Love someone today :)

Way back when

My mother saved many of our baby clothes from when I was little Which I now have. I love the vintage feel and the detail on these outfits so I couldn't resist doing a shoot of London wearing them.
