Update

We made it home, but the car did not....it was a traumatic evening for me and the girls and I am still extremely stressed and worried about what happens next. I have to find another car and fast. I have a rental for just a few days.

 We had some very scary characters stop (mustache painted on by what looked like eyeliner anyone? and telling us about people killed there just the night before but then later I could find nothing in the news about it?) and offer assistance that set off every warning bell in my body to the point I was ready to tell the girls to run screaming up to the interstate to get cars to stop. It was a very lonely exit with no buildings or people about and we were many hours from anyone we know. The hotel we went to was not much better. Some men saw me and my CHILDREN get dropped off by a tow truck with our broken car on it and asking 'hey ladies what room you in?' REALLY????????????

I have to go to work in about an hour. I hope I make it through this day. Deep breaths. Thoughts of butterflies daisies and unicorns.

Boy have things been busy around here! This is my new dining room...I had found some dark teal curtains to flank the lace, but still undecided...that is really all that is missing. I love this!

This is the birthday cake we made for Caela's 18th back in January...yeah I'm the parent of an adult now...scary! We had lots of fun with fondant...

Prom has happened...

Here is Caela showing off the high heels - she was about 6'2" with these lol


Here is Maiah with her shoes - these are very sparkly and have spikes on them that I wish showed up in pics! 


I didn't make these dresses - that seemed to be everyone's first question ... no time! We still have lots more to do in the next few months. I've done no sewing in awhile but have used creative juices in decorating. Have to get my small fixes in where I can! :-)
