Shop VACATION announcement & a $200 cash giveaway!

It has been a bit crazy in my house since we are in the middle of escrow on our new home! I am SO excited to move into a bigger (& super cozy) space including a larger work room for all of my crafts that make up the Love Sparkle Pretty brand. As of right now, we should be moving Thanksgiving week, if not sooner. In the mean time, lots of packing will be underway as well as setting up and decorating our new home in time for the holidays and my son's 2nd birthday! EEEKKK!

I will be putting the shop on vacay in a few weeks and will reopen early December with new bridal pieces that I am so excited to share including the infamous seashell crown from this photo shoot!! 

I'm not too sure on the exact vacation dates just yet but will keep you posted. 

You can still put in your orders until vacay time. If you have a wedding sometime next year, you can put your orders in now to secure your spots on the order list but they won't be sent out until after reopening of the shop.

Until then, here's a great giveaway to win, especially for those who love spooky stories! I, myself, can't handle the terror of scary-anything-anymore but the cash would be great for holiday shopping! :D

Weekend Recap {A vacay in the sun}

This past Sunday, my husband, my little love bug and I packed up to go on our first family vacation. We decided to go to Laughlin and meet up with our good friends, Chad and Tara and my momma even came out for a night! I was a little weary taking the baby to Laughlin but seeing how our rooms were only $24 a night at the Harrah's, we made it work and found lots of fun things to do with Levi. In actuality, the vacation seemed to be Levi's vacation seeing how he ate lots of goodies, stayed up pretty late, played in the arcade, swam his little heart out in the river and soaked up lots of sun (with mounds of sun screen of course)!
We all had such a great time! I brought my DSLR but I ended up taking most of the photos on my iPhone because I was too nervous that I'd break my Canon somehow.
Here's a little peek of this past weekend.

On our way with a sleeping baby in the back seat.

Arcade time for little love.

A dinner night with some Mexican food!

Yummy Creme Brulee another night with my momma and step father.

Levi had dessert too...

Clear skies on the way home.

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have noticed the photo above because of the quote I posted on the way home from our trip. :)

Have a beautiful Friday my friends!

I'm BACK!!

We are back from our family vacation to the river! Had such a great time with the husband, baby love, (my momma who came out for a night) and good friends!

Now, time to take my shop off "vacation," run to the supply store, work on LOTS of pretties (watch the Bachelorette while I'm at it) and organize some chaos.

This super fun and relaxing weekend will be up on the blog soon!

Hope everyone is having a great week so far.
