Take two

I think I finally figured out the curtains in our room. Who knew that getting curtains for a room could be so hard. Not only did they need to be room darkening/light filtering, but our bed is positioned in such a way that it needed to be just right.

Here are the first set of curtains...

Here is what it looks like inside, if you know me in real life, you know this is 100% my style. I looked online for a while to find the right invite. Most websites are pre printed invites that all said "Baptism or Christening".... it was hard to find one that actually said or allowed me to write dedication. I went with the good old staple, Vistaprint. I also designed labels there as well. Below you can see both. The cake was something I wasn't 100% sold on since we really didn't need one because there was a dessert buffet.
