beautiful children. I'm a military wife as well and time can be

of the essence. I love to craft and make things for others. I get all

my inspiration from my 2 year old princess. I love to make her

accessories that match every outfit and some to be a little over

the top. I started making things for friends and family and decided

Last week we celebrated our 3rd anniversary!!

I still can't believe that we have been married for three years.

Cliche I know, but it seems like just yesterday we

were walking out of the temple, as husband and wife.

Zach being the wonderful husband that he is surprised me

with a gorgeous arrangement of my favorite flowers from none other than Roots.

He had all sorts of fun things planned for our anniversary, but

unfortunately I was super sick. So instead, we celebrated

on our couch watching The Biggest Loser. Romantic, I know!!

Don't worry, we are going to go out and celebrate one of these nights!!

These past three years have flown by, but have

definitely been some of the best yet.

How perfect would this be for you if you have a baby of your own,

or are planning on attending a baby shower this summer?!

I asked Michelle to tell us a little bit about herself, and her

business. This is what she said...

I am a mid 20s woman with a passion for all things fabric and crafts! I love love love felt, feathers, buttons and mixing printed cotton fabrics! In 2008, I graduated from The Ohio State University with a Textiles and Clothing degree and a minor in Art. After working as a bridal consultant for almost two years I decided it was time to start my own thing and dive into being self employed. Eeeeek!! I love etsy and handmade items that you can not find anywhere else and encourage others to support local artists. I love working from home and spending my days listening to music and playing with fabric. I can't imagine things any differently! It has been a great journey so far and I am learning a lot. My mind is always moving on to creating new things, but I look at it as I am constantly keeping you on your toes! When I am not working on Little Blue Feather, I volunteer for the Midwest Boston Terrier Rescue and enjoy traveling, photography, ice cream and spending time with my family! I hope you enjoy!

You guys, she is adorable...and so are all of her creations!!

RSL

Last week, Zach and I had the opportunity to go see

Real Salt Lake, play Monterey in the CONCACAF finals.

We had AWESOME seats, and got to join in with all of the crazy fans...

It was a really good game...stressful at times though.

Unfortunately Real lost, 1-0, and Monterey took the championship.

We still love RSL, and can't wait to go to more games this season.
