Feliz cumpleaños Em!

Happiest of birthdays to my littlest princess!

We're headed under the sea...

For Emily's Little Mermaid birthday party tomorrow afternoon -- I've got a faboo cake planned, but haven't been able to find the exact ingredients I need. I've got some stand-ins and we'll see how it turns out. :)

July 1: Stepping up my game

I'm going to try out a July of NaBloPoMo -- the monthly theme is "saved", but there are also daily post starters to help out. I'll probably touch on a mix of the two and can't say I won't also throw in a meme or two. :)

July is going to be crazy-busy for us here in Nica so hopefully I'll have lots to talk about.
