Patriotic Wreaths

Don't you love all the wreath ideas on Pinterest?  There are about 15 that I want to make for each season and holiday.  This week I made a super cute patriotic wreath for the Fourth.  I followed this tutorial and I am so happy with how it turned out!  The only thing I added was a cute red, white, and blue polka dotted ribbon to hang it.

Update:  You can now buy these in our Etsy shop- TwoCraftySeesters!  Check it out and pick one up!

Brew at the Zoo


Every year, the Nashville Zoo hosts Brew at the Zoo as a fundraiser for the Zoo programs.  There are over 100 craft beers to try, food trucks, and animals, no animals to see.  Literally every single animal was in for the night by the time we got there. But luckily there was a lot of other things to entertain us.  Like watching people who were at least 10 beers in riding the carousel.  We stood and watched them for about 15 minutes.  At least 40 Instagrams were posted by each rider during their five minute ride.  Except for the one guy who was holding on to his ostrich for dear life and looked like he wasn't going to make it to the end of that ride.



There was entertainment, like this steel drum band, throughout the park.  It almost made up for the lack of animals.  I mean come on people, we are at the ZOO!



This group was having the time of their life.



This is just a few of the beer tents at the main festival area.  The antlers are advertising for a local brewery called Jackalope Brewing Company.


It was such a fun night, but next year I will be sure to bring my necklace like this.  Pretzel necklaces?! Who knew this was even a thing!  I will be a better informed beer festival go-er!

Bittersweet

I have been counting down the days until school is out for weeks, but today, on the last day of school I feel so conflicted!  I have spent the majority of my waking moments for the last ten months with these drunk adults and I am going to miss their crazy personalities and sweet faces so much!  I guess sleeping until I decide to get up and laying by the pool all day will be a good consolation prize!  Happy summertime!!
