A Very Beachy Birthday!

A very pretty 'tweenager' I know recently became a full-fledged Teenager!!!


Happy 13th Birthday Peyton!


I had the honor of making her birthday cookies-yippee!


Miss Peyton loves the beach and all things sparkly and girlie (just my kinda girl!).

for the birthday girl....

someday I'll figure out how to stick real candles in here.

I guess you could just bite off the flame instead of blowing....

Make a Wish!

Here come those sassy bikini girls!

the orange crush bikini....

"What do you think?  Should I wear my pink bikini and green flip-flops

with my new monogrammed towel...."

"....or the green bikini and white flip-flops?

Wait, I'll go try the other one on again!"

"She wore an itsy-bitsy, teeny-weeny..."

sorry, couldn't help myself.

It's just not a 'Lizy B' platter without a few letter cookies.

Had to have some cupcakes too.

Hope you had a great day Peyton!!

Happy, Happy 13th Birthday!!!

Thanks for stopping by,

Bathing Beauties

"OMG!  Like, did you notice that your towel TOTALLY matches my bikini!"

"Whatever...you can have it.  I totally have a new one anyway."

"BFF!"

...just a little slice of life here in the OC.

Thanks for stopping by...could you pass the coppertone?

Signs of Summer!

Isn't it funny how we all have a different sign that summer is here?

For some it's the arrival of their favorite fruit in the produce aisle.  Others wait for the sunshine to last until after dinner.

I think most kids agree that if school is out, it's summer for sure!  (still another 1 1/2 weeks for the munchkins in SoCal.)

For me....its tan feet.  Tan Feet!  How silly is that!

The first few days the flip-flops come out of hiding are rather scary....feet glowing with paleness.

But, its been a few weeks.  There are flip-flops in the hallway, the garage, by the front-door, back-door...

In the KITCHEN!!!!!!!

Get in here and Put Your Shoes Away!!!!

...oh wait, those are mine....they can stay right there.

(On second thought, put them all in the laundry room.  Nothing going on in there anyway)

Yes, the tootsies are finally looking a little tan.  They have seen sunlight (alright maybe they've the self-tanner bottle too...)

Summer's here!!!!

How do you know its summer?

Thanks for stopping by!
