VBS and NYC

So, as usual life gets busy and haven't had time to document my trip as I'd hoped...we are deep in the throws of party prep around here - Charlotte's 5th...we are hosting an American Girl Spa party next weekend!  We have also been in VBS this week and I've helped almost everyday, its been a blast!  Our church is building a Habitat for Humanity House for one of our one and it has been awesome to see the progress this week and get to see the kids experience this ministry through the eyes of their VBS..."God at Work" was the theme!  I'll be painting next week at the house with a group of girls from my Bible Study, I am so excited!

Hope to be back later with some more NYC pics...one of the highlights for sure was meeting a blog friend "live" ...she was fabulous and we had a great lunch!  Other highlights (besides all the food and fun with my hottie hubs) was the Country Living Magazine preview party for the Green House of the Year, the details were wonderful and it was so cool to meet the editors and designers from the magazine.  We also had dinner with a fun group after the party, one of which was the Style Editor for the New York Times she had worked for House and Garden and several other publications prior to and it was great to chat with her - very exciting to meet so many art and design people, I was in Heaven!  And came away from the experience wanting to build and design a whole new house, I can't wait to share the house details with you!

Just a couple teaser pics!
