A Hidden Gem

I love getting to explore our city, but here lately we haven't had much time with school being so crazy and work and life. Riley had been more and more interested in trying new things and seeing new places, so today I had the day off of everything. We explored and we found this little hidden gem down in Mainstrasse in Covington, Ky:

Stoney's Gifts: All Things Princess & Fairy. 

I dreamed of a place like this as a little girl, and I love that there are people that still have little unique stores like this that offer things that you aren't able to find anywhere else.

There are so many cute things offered that are specific to princesses and fairies, naturally.

Riley and I were in love with all of it, even the tulle displays and the fairy splattered paint on the floor.She was especially fond of the little fairy tree house displayed on an authentic tree stump, what a creative idea! 

This store is packed with unique creative things,including an array of fairy outfits to choose from:

The shop owner paints as well. I'm desperately in love with the one on top of the boy and girl kissing that I may just have to go back and buy it, it's pretty adorable.

If you have a little girl should definitely hold a place on your things to do and see list. 

It's located at 323 West Sixth Street in Mainstrasse Village in Covington, KY 41011.

Long Lost Pictures from Zoo Blooms!

I just found these pictures from the memory card that was in my point and shoot camera that my dear sweet husband washed in the washing machine... yep, believe it. It was in a sweatshirt pocket, and it was done for. The memory card is still intact though, and I discovered these pictures from when we went to Zoo Blooms at the Cincinnati Zoo!

Spring!!!!

It's finally warm enough to enjoy the park scene! I packed up our dinner (chicken cor don blue) which wasn't so easy haha and we ate it at the park on one of the picnic tables.

Then we blew bubbles:


And played on the jungle gyms:



Went down the slide:



Got to swing! And make funny faces (even at 3 1/2 months old):



Monkey around:



Shoot some hoops with our Daddy:



And just enjoy the fact that spring is finally arrived!



We are all pretty excited! Even baby Raigan:

Easter Gift Bags

These are the gift bags I made for Riley's preschool.







They contained a toy filled Easter egg, carrot shaped candy, chewy candy bunny teeth, stickers, and a stretchy bunny.
