Two's Company, Three's A Lot!
Following up on our Facebook sneak peek last week...
...Here are some pics from a fantastic baby shower this past weekend (ahem, we're slightly biased as we were helping shower the lovely Alex). The mom-to-be is expecting not one, not two, but three! The starting point for the theme was inspired by some fabulous fabric pieces her sister created. Colorful, bold and full of owls. From there, it was all sure to be a hoot, hoot, hoot of an event. And it was - thank you Mere for the sangria! Delish!
Childhood photos of mom and dad-to-be were a nostalgic treat.
A trio of posters by Amy at Express Yourself for the three babies!
Perfect for the nursery.
Fabric owls by Mere (sister of mom-to-be) and some delicious apps to appease.
Favor mini journals for guests to grab when they go.
Making wishes for Alex and the babies with The Flying Wish Kit.
A favorite of ours!
Lots of gifts. Then again, there are three babies to shower!
A little Baby Bingo from Knock Knock to keep everyone entertained.
Some delightful handknit goodies made with love by the grandma-to-be.
Oh, diapers! More please.
This box will last a day with all those babies. Really.
The beautfiul mom-to-be and her three.
A favorite and popular treat.
Marshmallows hand dipped in chocolate and adorned with pistachios,
graham crackers and dried cherries. So easy and so delicious.
And finally...
We couldn't resist a little play on three (three!) babies.
Happy Shower! Happy Day!
Running On Empty
Who knew that as infrequently as we post we would run out of storage space so soon!? Alas, we love to show you all pics. Who doesn't love to look at a picture or two dozen, really?! We have a great baby shower post to share with you, but you'll have to wait patiently while we increase our photo storage space. So don't go anywhere - OK, maybe you can run out for lunch...perhaps dinner too - because we'll be back and posting some pretty pics soon!
Birthday Boy {Man, really}
Today is Mr. Jones birthday. He doesn't really like to celebrate or make a fuss. But I couldn't resist a little bit of decoration here and there. Inspiration for colors was drawn from the Happy Birthday card from A Papier - add a few balloons, an extra ribbon tied here and there and a few messy handprints later and this is what he will come home to.
Happy Birthday to Mr. Jones! Love you!

Organize This...
This is one of those videos that just keeps popping up all over the blogosphere. And we love it. So naturally we feel it is our duty to share. It is a stop motion video {a method we heart} of some bookshelf organizing - as they note on YouTube: Over the weekend Lisa Blonder Ohlenkamp (blonderland.com) and I (ohkamp.com) decided to organize the bookcase. It got a little out of hand... We would say it got us inspired. Organize on. Or as my 2-year old says, "it's time for some orgazining." {erin}
Spring Fling

We just love it when Spring is around the corner. For us at Express Yourself, that means wedding season is almost in full bloom. One of our newest loves is BHLDN. For brides, romantics and even those wishing to renew their vows, this should be the first stop on a new and long journey. We particularly love the nod to the nuptials of yesteryear. They evoke such a nostalgia for the past and draw us into a frenzy of inspiration for what is to come. These particular photos remind us of The Great Gatsby era, which is so popular right now with weddings. Here's to a long and happy journey.
love this...
How sweet it is to see this canine cupid. Just in time for Valentine's Day! Where did we find this adorable pooch? Over at The Flabby Labby Dog Cookie Company, of course! Be sure to check out our giveaway that includes some of The Flabby Labby cookies. SWAK!
