Zoo day!

Such a GORGEOUS and fun Saturday at the zoo with the beautiful Young Family. They took care of us all weekend while Alex was away at drill. So grateful for them. Madison and Byron are such sweet little buddies.








Concrete horizontal protest

Hilarious? Yes. Ridiculous? Yes. This was Hazel's horizontal protest/tantrum at Salvatore's Pizza the other night because we were not going to get ice cream next door as quickly as she thought was necessary. OH to be two-years-old!

DIY Cupcake Toppers

Supplies:
• Circle cutter (I used the Olfa Rotary Circle Cutter)
• Scalloped Circle Cutter (I used the Fiskars Scalloped Circle Punch)
• Glue stick
• Glue gun
• 4 inch lollipop sticks
(you can get these in the baking section at the craft store)
• Double sided patterned card stock or scrap booking paper
• Colorful Buttons



Steps:
1. Each topper will use three layers of paper…
• Cut circles for the front of the toppers
(mine were scalloped circles with holes in the middle so the paper underneath showed through)
• Cut circles for the middle of the toppers
• Cut circles for the backs of the toppers
2. Take the circles for the middle of the toppers and with a hot glue gun attach the lollipop sticks to the back
3. Using a glue stick attach the back circles to the middle circles covering the lollipop sticks
4. Using a glue stick attach the scalloped circles to the front of the toppers
5. Using a glue gun finish the topper by attaching the colorful buttons or other embellishments
