CYBER MONDAY SALE AT TINKERANNIEBELLE!

For the first time in my life, I braved the Black Friday sales--I discovered that Black Friday success is all about tag teaming (go Kelli and Mom!), that Roberts customers are actually quite nice at 6 in the morning, and that JoAnn's customers are rather rude no matter what time of day it is--anyhow, now that Black Friday is over, I am in the mood for a much easier, less dangerous holiday sale... CYBER MONDAY!! You don't even have to leave the comfort of your own home--now that's my kind of shopping! :)

So, starting at midnight tonight and all day Monday until midnight, everything in my shop is 20% off! Just use the code "CYBER20" at checkout to receive your discount. It's the perfect time to get some early holiday shopping done before the rush, so head on over now--happy shopping!

It's been a while...

My word it's been a while since I've posted--not that life at the Houston Household is just that, on the contrary--it's because it's just been so busy! The end of the school year seems to do that... between band concerts and awards nights and Summer band rehearsals and graduation and sewing lessons and dogs and who knows what else, it's been a crazy few weeks...

So, Kellianne did officially graduate from BYU!! 

 And mom made the most beautiful graduation dress for the big event!

 Carolyn's little baby Heather was blessed--also in a Melissa Snow Houston original--gorgeous blessing dress, right?? and the baby isn't half bad either. ;)

 Such a cute little girl!

 Oh, and our sweet little baby Heather (again in a Melissa Snow Houston original from the Summer line) is now three months old--can you believe it?? I can't, she's growing up so fast! Good thing that we FINALLY get to see her this summer! 

Making Chocolate Treats

The boys are great helpers--most of the time. ;)

Somehow Kelli got them to assist in making chocolate dipped pretzels for Christmas.

Lots and lots of pretzels...

Flower Baskets

Well, we (Mom, Carolyn, and Kellianne) have officially completed Wilton Course 2! In this particular course we learned a wide variety of flowers, reverse shell border, rope border, and the basket weave, and for our final project we put everything into action. Didn't our cakes just turn out beautifully???

Kelli's Cake


Haha, Kelli's bee was the only one that still had antennas by the end of the night! ;)
