This and That.

Over the weekend, we celebrated Emma's very last high school prom.  Sigh.  Such a beautiful girl, even if I'm a bit biased.
I also spent some time cleaning out my garden shed (which is more like an adult playhouse than a garden shed).   I chased out all the spiders and washed linens. Now, I just wish our weather would stay warm enough to enjoy it!

On Sunday, my mom, sister and I attended season opener of the Allegan Antique market.  Of course, I found another Chinese Checkerboard to add to my growing collection.  I'm addicted, I tell ya! 

Lastly, if you are out shopping this weekend and near a Dollar Tree, they are selling the prettiest paper lanterns and they even light up!  Wouldn't they be really festive as birthday party or Mother's day decorations?  I hope you find time to play this weekend.

XOXO

Weekend highlights...

We started our weekend at Van Andel Arena watching Live Arts Grand Rapids where Emma's Grandville marching band participated Friday night.
Saturday was a day of prom preparations for Emma.  
She looked gorgeous.  
I still can't believe my baby is going to be 17 in a few weeks.  
I ended the weekend with a trip on Sunday to the Allegan Antique market for their season opener with my mom and sister.

These miniature cabins came home and will join the rest of my tiny cabin collections at our lake house.  These last few days sure have been a whirlwind of activity.  Have a wonderful week ahead!

Busy, busy, busy!

Thank you for all your compliments on my "she shed".

Who knew that when my husband agreed to rescue 13 wooden doors and build me a garden shed beneath the girls treehouse, that I'd be in "vogue".

It's been an absolutely crazy week at work with winter semester ending and spring semester starting very quickly.  It doesn't help that our evenings are equally busy...especially for my eldest who is juggling her junior year Advanced Placement studies, band practice, prom duties and tennis practice.

Both girls are involved with outdoor sports and the weather has been downright miserable for practice and games this week.
Emma has prom Saturday evening and we are hoping Mother Nature will cooperate for a few outdoor pics.  She's having her hair professionally styled, but I wanted to share a sneak peek of her beautiful dress. 
For my blogging friends who have warm temps and sunshine, please send some of that our way! 
My mom, sister and I are headed to the first Allegan Antique Market  on Sunday and we'd like to stay dry!!  I hope you are having a good week, friends.
