Topped Tuesday

I hope you are all having an amazing week! I am heading out early this year so I can enjoy the rest of the week with my friends and family in St. Louis to celebrate Thanksgiving.

If you are anything like me one of your favorite parts of this amazing holiday is the pie! I was browsing Style Me Pretty yesterday and found these amazing tips on some beautiful pie crust designs....take a look here!



Not gonna lie, I might have to test out that Ruffle crust...I wonder why?

I hope you all have a fantastic Thanksgiving, eat too much food, watch too much tv, and spend too much time with family! 


See you next week!

Weekend Recap

 This weekend my dad and step mom welcomed another beautiful baby girl into the world! I can't wait to meet her in a few months, if she is anything like the other two she will be nothing short of adorable!


Here is a picture of Alexa and Taylor with Harper (the new baby). I swear every time I see a picture of any of them they look like they have grown so much!


Ta-da! Introducing Harper Niemann. What a cutie, loving the bow hat....



This officially makes it five daughters for my dad...poor guy, what has he gotten himself into!? 

I hope you all had an amazing weekend! Tomorrow will be my last post before taking some time off for Thanksgiving. Happy Monday everyone.
