Dollar Bill Flower Bouquet

My Grandma was celebrating her 75th Birthday and I wanted to put together something unique for her present. This year I gave her money to spend on our girls day out in Minneapolis. I found this great way to make flowers with dollar bills and since spring was finally approaching, a flower bouquet was just perfect!

A Day to Celebrate Grammy's 75th Birthday

I spent this wonderful sunny Friday with my sister, mom and grandma in Minneapolis for a girls day out. We celebrated my Grandma's 75th birthday!  My grandma and sister had makeovers done at Mac at Nordstrom's in the Mall of America. Thanks Amanda, the girls did such a great job!  We had lunch at Crave in Edina and finished the day with some shopping.

 Just Beautiful Mel


Happy Birthday Grammy

Murder Mystery Party-Happy Birthday Julie!!!

As many of you probably already know, I love games,competitions and Winning! ....So I was more than excited when I received an invitation to Julie's Birthday celebration and it was a Murder Mystery party.  
We had been assigned our characters, found the most fabulous costume to come to the party in, and were ready to play our characters.  Once we all arrived to the party we began to mingle around in our characters. The first round we were given an envelope and inside was a card with clues necessary to play our characters. During the investigation round it was very important to ask the right questions to the right characters and listen carefully to each clue in order to solve the mystery. The clue cards gave us certain ways to act toward each other and what we could reveal or not reveal in conversation. It was a very fun night, Only 3 of us guessed the correct murderer... Bameril Lacrosse-Chris.
