Spring brings plenty of projects every year. This year it's all about the wedding which is now only 10 days away. We've got lots of things stacking up here- to make and do. It's been wonderful though and a very organized process thanks to Maggie's hard work (and spread sheets). She has thought of every little thing and it promises to be elegant and lovely- in a simple, stress-free way. Just worried that it will go by too fast!
My mom is making great progress at physical therapy and spends the last part of each session practicing walking down the aisle on her therapist's arm. They wave to us like royals, turn and go back again the other way. A little dancing side to side (tricky way to get her to walk sideways and backwards) and she's good to go. So excited!
A few notes for you-
I'll be closing the Etsy shop for awhile as we get closer to the day. I have lots of samplers here ready to go now.
I wanted to tell you about my friend, Marcie's new blog, Mossy. She is a neighbor and maker of things. Her blog is beautifully presented, generous, informative and heartwarming. I know you will love it.
And this would be right up her alley- a sweet felted egg project and cute tutorial found recently through Amanda's Loving list. Darling!
What fun, but busy, days you have ahead of you. So happy your Mother is doing so well. Wish I could be as organized as your Maggie. Enjoy!

I hope all of you have fun and I wish God's blessings to your daughter and her new husband. My daughter is getting married on May 7th, so we are also counting down.

The air in the Lyons' household must be snap, crackle, and popping with love and well-organized excitement!! And your mom sounds more than ready to come down that aisle...and to do a little dancing too! So happy for all of you. xox

Charlotte, I wish so much joy for you in the days to come. Being the mother of the bride brings forth so many emotions. Be surrounded by grace and everything will be as you wish.
