The Wedding

The bride and groom (Jenny and Greg):



The finished favors:


Happy Engagement!

My boyfriend, well fiance, and I have decided to continue our lives together! A few months ago, Jenny asked Kevin if he'd be interested in proposing during the reception. He went back and forth trying to decide whether he would or not. Well, Thursday night, he decided to go for it!

During the bouquet/garter toss, Jenny and Greg fooled the crowd and turned to give Kevin the garter and myself the bouquet. Hating that part of any wedding reception, I was a little hesitant to accept. I went with it because it was Jenny's day, not mine. Little did I know, Kevin took the microphone and proposed! It was so romantic! And SURPRISING!! (Good job, babe!)

Here are some pictures of my new ring (and my new fiance)! :)






Hope you enjoyed! I know I am :)

Butterfly Cookies

Kevin's sister (Jenny) is getting married on Friday! A while back, she asked me if I could make her favors. I said, "Of course!"... Well, last week we baked and iced 162 5" butterfly cookies. Yesterday, I sat down (at 9:30a) to begin painting 162 5" butterfly cookies. By 9:30p, I had painted 97 cookies...







Back to work Tuesday morning... I started again today at 9:30a and finished by 2:30p. We have 97 bagged and are letting the others dry. Final count: 147!


I hope you enjoyed the pictures! Hope for sun and warm temps on Friday!
