Making Memories: Baby in Bloom Baby Shower Pics and Life Update w/Recipe Links

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog4 Comments

Wow! We are so blessed to have so many wonderful friends and family.

We had a ton of people show up for the baby shower to surround my daughter and son-in-law with love… it was AMAZING!!! I didn’t get as many pictures as I’d liked to have, some of them have been misplaced or accidentally deleted, and I won’t be sharing some that I did get because I didn’t get permission to post them from other people but we will share what we can and hope that it can inspire you.

Published on by Susie @ Pollywog's Place Blog4 Comments

Whoa! It feels like this year is flying by!

I’ve been working so hard on this new garden space and planning out some changes for our home and property that April just kinda snuck up on me. I was sitting down to do my monthly orders, and I saw that I had some Solar Eclipse viewing glasses in my Amazon cart… had to get them ordered so we could safely view the eclipse next week. Then I remembered that I had started to plan a little party for that day (April 8th) as well… the keyword is ‘started’… it didn’t get very far.
