Twins, Lilly, and more

I got an iPhone after Christmas. It has changed my life! I take more pictures and I am completely addicted to instagram.

 

So Jennifer, Hadley and Harper's mom, sent me pictures last week of the girls. I had to put them side by side to try to figure out who was who. I can always tell them apart and I was shocked I couldn't tell them apart in these pictures.

 

 

Looking at it now I am still not sure who is who!

 

Ulta is now carrying St. Tropez! I love this self tanner. It is easy to use and doesn't have the yucky self tanner smell! It is a little pricey but so is skin cancer! I will not lay in a tanning bed anymore so this is my new alternative. I use the bronzing mousse about 2 times a week to keep me from being pasty white!

 

I ordered this necklace from BaubleBar (Here's an invitation). I have wanted to find a sparkly statement necklace for a while now and I found this. My first order was $10 off so I snatched this necklace up. Now I have to figure out how to wear it! In my package was a handwritten thank you note which I loved. I loved getting a handwritten note. I think it is nice and classy!

 

Look at these sweet faces! I'm in love!

Since I don't live near these cuties I have to rely on Jennifer to send me pictures of the girls! Thanks Jennifer!

 

I went back to Ms. Arty Pants and added to my Lilly Chin Chin canvas. I think it looks much better now.

 

I took this picture when I was at Palm Village a few weeks ago. I love this dress! It is on my Lilly wish list.

Ms Arty Pants Lilly Style

A group of women from my church went to Ms. Arty Pants last week to paint. I asked Ms. Arty Pants if she could do the new Chin Chin print from Lilly Pulitzer on a canvas. That Ms. Arty Pants is so talented! When I got to her studio she had the print on my blank canvas.

 

 

I chose my paints and got started. 

 

 

It was quite the project!

 

I am a messy painter!

Bee Mine

 

On Monday Ms. Arty Pants came to my class to paint a Valentine's Day canvas with my students. Ms. Arty Pants is a local Paint Your Own Canvas studio.  Anessa, Ms. Arty Pants,  will also visit schools and paint with the kids.  My kids love this! We painted at Christmas and they couldn't wait for her to come back!

The kids start with a blank canvas with a sketch of what they are going to paint. The kids decided to paint a "Bee Mine" picture.  Ms. Arty Pants guided them through the process.

Each kid got to pick out the paint color for the background which made them each so different and fun.  This is what they looked like when the kids were finished painting.

After they are finished Ms. Arty Pants puts her magic touch to them. That Ms. Arty Pants is a miracle worker!

The kids had a blast painting and had even more fun trying to decide who they were going to ask to "Bee their Valentine"!

 

Of course I painted too!  Guess who will be my valentine or valentines?

 

And just for fun - my painting outfit!
