Vintage Indiana Ticket Giveaway

I have been to Vintage Indiana, Indiana's largest wine festival, multiple times and every year has been a blast, even in the rain!

The day is spent trying new wines from various Indiana wineries, munching on fruit and cheese, listening to music and hanging out with friends and family. Sounds perfect, doesn't it!

Father Daughter Dance

"She's pulling at me saying, 'Dad, I need you

There's a ball at the castle and I've been invited

And I need to practice my dancing, oh please, daddy, please'

So I will dance with Cinderella while she is here in my arms

'Cause I know something the prince never knew

Oh, I will dance with Cinderella, I don't want to miss even one song

'Cause all too soon the clock will strike midnight and she'll be gone..."

                                                                                                  Steven Curtis Chapman


This song was the theme of our recent Father Daughter dance - if you haven't heard it before - I highly recommend that you take a listen - Cinderella by Steven Curtis Chapman! Awesome song!!

Who doesn't love to watch little girls all dressed up spinning, twirling, swaying, dancing with their daddies and grandpas - and did I mention twirling?!?

I had the true pleasure of helping with our Father Daughter dance last weekend! Our church MOPS group sponsored this event and we had a fantastic time. It was royal, magical, special and hopefully memorable for all who attended!

 

 

 

The Wild One and Miss Bug got the royal treatment by their daddy! What a special evening for them!

CONGRATULATIONS TO HOOSIER FARM BABE FOR WINNING THE $50 GIFT CARD!


OshKosh B'gosh, OshKosh B'gosh, OshKosh B'gosh! How many of you remember this famous saying and the adorable commercials that went along with it in the 80's?!

Our family loves OshKosh B'gosh clothing - especially the bibs! My Little Man has had a few pair over the years and my girls even had the pink and white striped bibs when they were little! My Grandpa has worn striped OshKosh bibs for as long as I can remember - so, when our kids were born, we knew that they needed the same striped bibs to match Great Gramps!

Check out Little Man sporting his:

He's a cool dude (in case you didn't notice!) And, not only do they have bibs, but they also have the cutest clothes for boys and girls! Check out these adorable OshKosh skirts on my girls:

They even have built-in shorts which is one of my favorite features for girls' skirts! You know that OshKosh B'gosh has been around since 1895 and was started in OshKosh, WI. It is now a subsidiary of Carter's - another great children's clothing company!
