DIY Bridal Shower & Wedding Decor - Part 3

The other day I shared 

DIY Wedding Decor 

from my oldest daughter's wedding.

 

  You can see that post HERE if you missed it. 

 

Today I have some fun pictures of DIY Bridal Shower and Wedding Decor from my 2nd daughter's wedding, which just happened to be 3 months after the first....

 

That was ONE BUSY YEAR for me!

DIY Wedding Decor - PART 2

Two years ago, my two daughters got married "DIY-style" within 3 months of each other.  A while back I posted many DIY Wedding Decor photos from the two BIG DAYS!  If you didn't see it, you can go HERE to check out that post! 

 

I recently came across some more pictures that I took as items were made for the first wedding - a pink and orange beach wedding...

DIY Wedding Decor

In 2011, within three months of each other, my two oldest daughters got married DIY-style.  I thought  I would share a few of my favorite pictures of the DIY items from their weddings.

 

 

We made all the flowers for this wedding by hand.

Goodbyes and new beginnings...

Last week we had to say goodbye to our beloved dog Chase. He was a Golden Retriever that I adopted 5 years ago from a family on Craigslist when he was 5 years young. Ironically, he and my son Joey shared a birthdate - 7/2/03 and from the first time we brought him home, they shared a special bond.
