Auburn University {Big Brother Gift}

John made quick trip home last month after his pledge retreat and spend most of his time working on this neat project for his fraternity big brother. He ordered a few things to be delivered before his arrival and sent us specifics on paint and wood so he would have everything ready for his short visit.

He printed out a template to scale…. he used this really neat liquid clay to create some of the details. I’ve since shared this clay with Mother and she has added it to her craft closet.

Honey helped him with the saw…

He ordered stars and letters on Amazon. The size of the letters was how he determined the overall size of the project. He spray pained coats upon coats (and left numerous finger prints behind which made me want to swoop in and take over..).

He found the keys and chain on Amazon, too. Here was the final result…

He’s loving the fraternity and everything about Auburn. I couldn’t be happier for my boy.

Sunday Supper {Steak Fajitas & Homemade Flour Tortillas on the Blackstone}

Senses Spa + Rainforest Room on Disney Dream, Fantasy, Magic & Wonder

All of the ships in the Disney Cruise Line fleet have a Senses Spa.  In the past few months I have visited the spa on both the Dream and the Magic and thought I’d share more details. The experience on both ships was nearly identical, and this would be true for the Fantasy and Magic… Read More
