TVBWF

The Balloon and Wine Festival is one of the most fun things we look forward to all year. Being that it's in a smaller town, you wouldn't think it's as great as it is. It is a smaller version and cross between Stagecoach, Coachella, and the OC swap meet. 

We get our camping spots and camp out all weekend. This year we rented a trailer, which was the best idea with the heat and a 10 month pregnant mama. 

They had some great artists set. I was really looking forward to being there with a glass of wine or sangria in hand but Zoie still didn't want to come out. 

Friday night the artists were Frankie Ballard and, the most amazing show I've seen put on by, Justin Moore. 

Saturday night was the Gin Blossoms and 3 Doors Down. Besides them saying "God Bless You" after every single song, it was a nice throw back to 8th grade. 

We had a blast! Zeke loved every single bit of it from his new wagon 


To the early morning balloon launch


The balloon glow 


The concerts (he continuously asked to go watch the music)


And definitely the motorcycles on Sunday.


Next year should be just as crazy with two kids in tow and lots of fun to be had!

Cruisin'

One of my best friends is getting married so in getting married style we had to have the bachelorette party. Her and her fiancĂ© met on a cruise ship while both working, so going on a cruise was very fitting!  We took a short little 3 day (booze) cruise.  It was a lot of fun, my first time on ship/cruise, and I'm glad it's over.....wedding time!  Brandon had the kids all weekend and did an amazing daddy daycare job, even with activities and sports and all! He's super dad in my eyes! 

Weekend project

I have had this vintage window frame for quite some time now.   I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it but have received lots of opinions and feedback on how to mount the picture. I had heard mount the picture on something sturdy before stapling it to the window, cut the picture into 6 boxes and have it touch the glass since there's a gap in the back, or my original and easy idea of just stapling the picture to the back of the window.  That is exactly what I did and it was the easiest thing ever. I cannot believe I waited so long to get it on and up!  I am completely obsessed with it and finally have a wedding picture up in our house. On to the next project......

Tour de Zeke's Room

We have been working on Zeke's room for what seems like forever. We painted and set up his big boy bed tons of blog posts ago.  His room is now presentable. I say presentable because we still have some things we would like to do, add, and buy!   We decided on a vintage vehicle theme. It went from vintage cars to vintage vehicles because, of course, the themes I choose are not so popular.  I found a vintage car print I liked on etsy but everyone said the fabric was too hard to make as sheets or the cut they had wasn't long enough for a full size bed. After all that I thought going with solid colors would be a great idea. I ordered a duvet cover, pillow shams, a bed skirt, and a blanket from Restoration Hardware. I got them home, put them on the bed with some navy blue sheets and thought "eh"!!! I kept it up for awhile but hated it!!! It was so boring, the down comforter wouldn't stay in place in the duvet cover, and it was so heavy and hard Zeke didn't want to ...
