Memorial weekend treats...

So, do you have any special plans for Memorial weekend? 
Never one to miss an opportunity for decorating, I was happy to
dig out one of my favorite Magpie Ethel purchases this morning. 

Aside from my big outing at the Allegan Antique market
on Sunday with my mom and sister, the rest of the weekend
is going to be spent outside (as much as the heat will allow us).  

The girls and I made a few special treats for the weekend.


A few years ago we made these patriotic cupcakes.

If you are looking for decorations,
don't forget Allsorts and her sweet
pinwheel and bunting printables.


Have a wonderful Memorial weekend.

XOXO

    We're relaxing and trying to get the deck re-stained. And then a parade on Memorial Day and a little picnic. Enjoy your weekend!

    Kim,
    I love how you and your family make each Holiday special and memorable!!

    I know that it is something that your girls will never forget and will carry on these traditions with their own family.

    Mu Mom always celebrated and decorated for all holidays and made them special and I have carried on that tradition as I know your girls will.

    Hugs,
    Deb
