Things I’m loving about the beginning of summer:
More adorable picture of our grandson, Dax, all the summer flowers- here are the water lilies at the Des Moines Botanical Garden,
More time with Shawn since he is retiring, and looking forward to using these vases to help decorate for a wedding shower 🌸

What are you looking forward to this summer? I love the beginning when it is all in front of you...

We had a late Easter dinner this past weekend - it was so nice to be together with family and celebrate Jesus! I used my grandma’s green china that she used for so many family dinners! I also pulled out our Daisy Green Glassware to layer on top of the plates, I love how the green tumblers can be used for little vases with daffodils 🌼! Look through to see how the guys took pictures for me and the pop of yellow on Berend’s chair!

He remembers me with Valentine flowers.

He remembers me by putting gas in the car when he knows I’m going out.

He remembers my Greek yogurt at the store.

I’m so thankful for all Shawn does, he is my biggest cheerleader and my best friend.🥰🥰🥰🥰🥰

It’s so nice to be remembered- is there someone you need to remember today? Comment below and tell me about it! Maybe you could call them or send them a message? It just might make their day!

Congratulations to Seth and Mary !! They had a winter wedding that came together beautifully even during a pandemic! It was so fun to bounce ideas off Mary and her mom, Beth, they have such creative brains and know how to pull an event off! The bride loves vintage and knew which items she liked best. Sometimes brides need a designer and sometimes they just want to bounce ideas off of. One of the ideas we discussed at their consultation was using our mini suitcase as a focal point for the cake... although I couldn’t be there, I was thrilled at how they styled it!

Thanks, Annie!!!
