Lots Going On!

The past few weeks around the Phillips' household have been a whirlwind! Between birthdays, wedding showers, graduations and celebrating mother's day - we have been running around like a chicken with it's head cut off! ha! Anyways....here is a little of what's been going on.....


We celebrated Josh's Grandpa Jim's 80th Birthday!



Enjoyed lots of visiting....


Some great food...


And ended the night with some serious card playing....


Attended another wedding shower for my beautiful sister!





And a celebration for my cousins Cacy and Jake!

So that's what's been going on in our neck of the woods! Josh is out of school for the next couple of weeks. I am so excited to have more time with him! We plan on doing some yard work, plus we're going on vacation....so I'm sure I'll be blogging about that pretty soon.

Showered with Love!

My little sister is getting married this summer and the showers have officially started! I love wedding showers....everything about them - I love the cake and punch, I love flowers, spring dresses, mingling with family & friends, and beautiful gifts wrapped in pretty bows!

Lesha and Billy have had two wedding showers so far and have two more left to go. I had the privilege of hosting her first shower along with some of our aunts and a couple of cousins (Aunt Nancy, Aunt LaFonda, Aunt Sherryl, Aunt Glenda, Cousin Cacy and Cousin Cindy). We had a lime green and turquoise theme which I thought turned out really cute.



Our Me-Me made this towel cake. She made one for my wedding shower too. I think they are the cutest thing ever!


We used limes in glass vases for centerpieces.

Lesha & I made a scrapbook. We passed it around the shower so everyone could see some of the memories Lesha & Billy have made together.

Thank you everyone for helping with the shower. I think it was a success!


Since then, Lesha and Billy have had a 2nd wedding shower. It was just as beautiful and had a great turn out. It was a couples shower, so the men were invited too. We had some awesome food and some really great cookies at this one! Here are a few pics to share....
