We bought a house!

This spring swallowed me whole, and I admit, we've got some catching up to do!

So what's new?!

I'll fill you in on our end:

-we bought a house! (and moved!)

-we got a puppy! (i know...i still can't figure out why i made that decision)

-i'm going back to work!

-and while i've been absent from the blog, i've been feverishly working on Sweetie Pie Bakery things and am having an awesome year!

We're still unpacking boxes and have a long list of remodeling we'd like to do, but for now, here is a quick peek!  

We are really so excited to have been able to purchase our first home.  It takes a lot of sacrifice and sometimes doesn't seem to work out perfectly, until it does...and you are sitting in your new house with your crazy puppy (wondering why he doesn't understand to potty outside?!) and then realize-I'm living the dream...and truly we are.  To be able to spend my days and nights with my favorite people is really the best.  

Oliver & S and Mini Boden!

How many of you had the same thought as me when you saw the new Oliver & S Roller Skate Dress pattern that it could instantly be a Mini Boden inspired piece?!   Not long ago I was longing over $40 dresses at Mini Boden and figured I can make my own now!  I found a pink and red knit at Joanns so I scooped up the last yard and hoping to find some time soon to sew it up!  Do you have any fun projects planned for spring?  Now if only we could get the snow to melt!

International Pie Day-get ready!

Tomorrow is Pi(e) day!  We love pie and pi around here.  

Jason is making some deep dish pizza for dinner and I'm working on a peanut butter cup pie today!  Here are some of my favorite pie recipes to get you ready for tomorrow!
