Taking a Break....

Life is hectic.
July has been a whirlwind! 
I feel like I haven't had a break the whole month! 


We have had something going on pretty much everyday.  
Not to mention the daunting task of packing. 

Have I mentioned that I hate packing?
Well I do.
It seriously sucks.

So, I am sure you have noticed that I have not done anything for the past few weeks!
I decided that I am taking a break for the rest of July.

I know that I pretty much do this about every six months, but I did want to thank all my readers for sticking by me whenever I do take a break! 

So Thank You! 

See you in August. :)

Fruit Kabobs and Congrats Banner

Over the weekend we had a party for the hubby to celebrate his graduation! 
It turned out great.  I didn't have time to do everything that I wanted to, but I did make a few homemade things for his party. 

For the centerpieces I made Fruit Kabobs and put them in mason jars with a homemade tag.  Loved how they turned out, plus they are edible! So everyone got to enjoy them. :)


I also made a quick banner for the party as well and I like how it turned out! 
I have decided that it's really hard to make manly things.  I tried to keep it as simple as possible. 

That's pretty much as far as I went for the party...nothing too fancy.  If only I had more time!  

I am packing up all of my craft stuff for the move, so that means no crafting for a couple weeks. :( 

We have been so busy! I don't think our lives are going to slow down for a while.  I like being busy, but I could really use a break! :)
