My Empty Nest

I am going to follow Preston Bailey's advice and vary my posts.

I was going to talk about shoes, but here I am in Greeley, Colorado staying at the Sodbuster Inn Bed and Breakfast (which I highly recommend) wide awake thinking about when I brought my baby girl home, and now she is starting her freshman year at the University of Northern Colorado. Orientation, long day, but much better info than I got at my son's college.

I can't believe that she's going to college, and she is so ready to be here and out on her own. Now I want her to still need me, but she doesn't anymore, at least not in the way I would like her too!

She's moved into her dorm, will meet her roommate on Thursday and on Monday she starts school. And on Friday we leave her here. I had very hard time with my first child going to college but this is so much harder. I don't know why it is what it is.

Hopefully, she'll do what her brother has done in the past and text me about 11pm one night a week. I'm not sure how my son decided to do that but I always looked forward to those texts. So I hope my daughter does too. I LOVE YOU WITH ALL MY HEART! I know you've been here for a few months, and I know you can stand on your own two feet, but I hope you know I will always be here for you.

Blue Bunny Wedding Cake ice cream

Well, they finally did it. Ice cream in a wedding cake flavor, called "I Do, I Do". Isn't this cute?

A Piece of Cake

Marie Antionette's famous phrase: "Let them eat cake".

 In the past it was customary to have a "wedding cake", to share with your guests and to thank them for celebrating your big day. But as in all customs, things do change. The traditional wedding cake is not the only sweet that brides and grooms can choose from.

I love that todays versions of the "cake", are highly personal. From beautiful, whimsical, sculptered cake to macaroons, incredible cheesecakes, cupcakes to pies. If you want it, it can be done, make it your own, these are the details that make it your wedding.

 S'mores, what a fun fall idea. Thank you to "The Wedding Coordinator" and Style Unveiled for the great S'mores idea. These are the little details that can make your wedding spectacular, memorable, and mirror your personal style.
