So I guess the last one was a bust...



I had an amazing amount of people that didn't believe that Gabriel looked
more like me than he did Chris... so I decided to re-do it. Okay okay you guys were right! :D

And a Happy Valentine's Day to you!

Happy Valentine's Day everybody!!!
Today, Gabriel and I had so much fun going out to Red Robin and the Sweet Tooth Fairy with some of my best friends. It was great fun and the sweets from the Sweet Tooth Fairy were absolutely amazing! We just love the way they decorated their store as well, it is just too adorable.

This was my Valentine's present to myself :D I'm trying to finish my quilt and when I saw this fabric I absolutely fell in love with it! So cute!
Me and my cousins, Emily and Jessica, had a little Valentin's Par-tay a couple weeks back... We watched a fun movie, and did some cute decorations for Valentine's. Yeah, we're pretty silly :D Spirit fingers!

This is my Christmas tree but I haven't taken it down yet so we decorated it! The chain is actually a countdown chain until Chris is home (12 more days!! :D) and then there's some roses at the top.
These are some cute boxes we made. I just love stackable boxes!! Each of us girls took one to decorate and keep for ourselves. It actually only took some scrapbooking paper, ribbon and some rhinestones... they came out so cute!

I'm trying to break into cupcake making ... this is just a vanilla cake with vanilla buttercream frosting. I really like trying to experiment with some designs with chocolate, so this one has some simple hearts that I just did with melted chocolate chips. I really want to do a lemon cake with a lemon curd filling so if you know some good recipes (for ANY cake, filling or frosting) let me know!!
Love- Eliza
