The Whims of Anna: January 2014
http://thewhimsofanna.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 27, 2014. Our Holiday season was nothing but parties and playing interspersed with working hard decorating lots of beautiful weddings but somewhere we found time to take a few pictures. :). For reals, they were totally divine. I made a raspberry rhubarb pie and a real coconut custard pie (and a regular old pumpkin pie). Seriously, the best! Alexander couldn't wait to dive into those pies! It was Godiva's first invitation to Thanksgiving dinner! She really enjoyed her turkey scraps! We als...

The Whims of Anna: March 2012

Wednesday, March 21, 2012. On March 17th, Everyone is Irish! In case you haven't been keeping count, it has been 3 months, almost exactly, since my last big holiday bash. To keep the withdrawal symptoms at bay I organized a great green fest to celebrate the luck o' the Irish. I was so excited that I planned it weeks in advance and decorated my house way early, ensuring that we were properly prepared to usher in the Celtic celebrations. Here are some of my decorations:. I also whipped up a couple of loafs...

The Whims of Anna: Abigail's First 2 Weeks at Home
http://thewhimsofanna.blogspot.com/2014/08/abigails-first-2-weeks-at-home.html
Saturday, August 23, 2014. Abigail's First 2 Weeks at Home. We've had Abigail for two weeks now, and in those two weeks we have had a lot of fun! What follows is more or a less a photo dump showing all the fun adventures we have had so far. I hope you don't mind all the pictures. First meal at home:. Just chilling at home, giving Abigail the tour of the place:. Breaking in the new bed:. Sitting with Grandma displaying the new blanket she crocheted:. Seriously, isn't she the cutest? Peter complains that s...

The Whims of Anna: September 2013
http://thewhimsofanna.blogspot.com/2013_09_01_archive.html
Thursday, September 12, 2013. This past month I lost one of my dearest Kansas City friends. Leila passed away suddenly and tragically and I am still heartbroken about losing her. She was so sincere and loving and was a true friend to me. She came through many times when I needed help most and I will always be grateful for her influence in my life. Our friendship grew as we attended each other's parties (we both LOVE parties! On August 2, I was doing a large event and she had committed to helping with the...

The Whims of Anna: April 2012
http://thewhimsofanna.blogspot.com/2012_04_01_archive.html
Monday, April 30, 2012. I Love to See the Temple. Some amazing things have been happening in Kansas City these past few weeks and we have been blessed to be able to play a part in them. Anyway, the temple is so amazing and so gorgeous! The whole temple is decorated with an olive branch theme, symbolizing the church offering an olive branch of peace to the people of Missouri. It was such a special and exciting experience to be part of it all. I only wish I could do it over and over again! My Life With CMT.

Monday, August 6, 2012. Tanner and Karianne's Wedding. I was thrilled to be able to travel out to Utah for the wedding of my little brother, Tanner, and his beautiful bride Karianne. Honestly though, I spent the entire time working. I found myself catering and decorating both the luncheon and reception, which was nothing short of crazy. When I finally arrived home last night at 3am (our flight was majorly delayed) I was completely and totally exhausted. Melanie catching the bouquet:. My Life With CMT.

The Whims of Anna: May 2015
http://thewhimsofanna.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Monday, May 4, 2015. We have been nothing but crazy busy the past several months. I can't even believe it is already May! Where the heck did the past 9 months go? Despite how quickly the days have been passing, we have been making sure to slide some fun in between the cracks of work, school and the every-day garble. This post features some of our favorite memories from last fall, including lots of pics. :) Thanks for your patience as we slowly catch up from this super insane year! Our holidays were kind ...

Sunday, March 24, 2013. Irish Eyes Are Smiling. Having an annual St. Patrick's Day party is probably the most genius idea I've ever had. This year we celebrated our 2nd annual event and had such a blast! At the official count we had: 22 adults, 5 babies and 1 toddler cramped into our tiny apartment but everyone had a great time! It was quite the feast! Thanks so much for everyone who was able to attend! We had so much fun and look forward to hosting next year's big bash. Does March 15 sound good? Valenti...
