Utah Baby Shower

If you need baby shower inspiration, keep scrolling. We're not just saying it, for real. Do it. We were honored to be apart of Lindsay of Harvest Moon Event's baby shower. Not only did Kasey of Harvest Moon Events plan the entire baby shower, but she hired us as a surprise gift for Lindsay. 

Everything at this baby shower was cute enough for a baby and classy enough for a grown group of women. The adorableness of this shower almost ALMOST made us want to have a baby of our own. Yes, Kasey is THAT good at events. Don't worry though, after the twinkle lights and delicious pink punch left our memories, we regained our DINK status. 

To brag a bit about Kasey, she is a young, beautiful woman entrepreneur in Park City, Utah. We felt included in the baby shower instead of the hidden photographer crouched in the corner wearing camouflage. Lindsay, the one that is pregnant in the pictures, she is equally as amazing and not to mention is a BEAST. Lindsay was still working and lifting heavy wedding coordinator things the day before her Park City baby shower. Who are these women? We feel a bit of superhero powers just from association.  

Let's discuss beverages for a second. This punch champagne concoction was AMAZING, so much so, we tried to blend random juices and whipping cream from our fridge the next day to replicate it. Scouring through your fridge + being too lazy to go to the store= a weird not even close version of the punch in the pictures. So don't be lazy like us, GO TO THE STORE, and maybe ask Kasey for the recipe because our recipe will create a gross punch you won't want to serve to anyone. 

Soak in the pink punch, mini burgers, tender meat, pallet table and ridiculously adorable tipi-pillow-covered-tree nest. Now that you've had your baby shower inspiration, you can continue your weekend smiling and thinking of how Monday is super far away from today. 

Rainy Day Blues, Psh

Let's appreciate rainy days! Here in Salt Lake City, spring is pretty much the only time we have rain. We want to challenge everyone to enjoy doing nothing, at least once in a while. It seems like people are always stressed. It's in our nature to worry about life, work and things that don't even matter in the grand scheme. Let the rain remind us to relax, smell the beautiful fresh water hitting the cement, and light some candles. 

Some suggestions for doing nothing on a rainy day:

1. Open a window. We've never met anyone who didn't like the smell of rain. If you don't like the smell of rain, we're sorry, you're missing out. No artificial scent has ever captured real rain hitting the sidewalk and grass. The window breeze may chill you a little, or a lot, so make sure to grab your duvet from your bed and create a cocoon with you in the center. 

2. Drink coffee or hot chocolate or warm tea. Having a big mug with something warm inside will relax you and cozy you up. If caffeine does you wrong, go with hot chocolate or caffeine free tea. You will be one step closer to feeling relaxed. 

3. Light some candles. We're a little obsessed with candles. If our place had enough room, we would have a candle making studio and light dozens of candles in each room every night. Moody clouds and light diffusing curtains create a perfect ambiance for flickering candles. It's not everyday you can light a candle in the middle of the day and see the orange-yellow hue emitting from it. 

4. Watch a movie that makes you think, or shows you a more realistic point of view. We're a fan of mindless movies and comedies, but let your rainy day relax you and remind you life isn't that bad, other people are in the same boat, and to not stress the small stuff. Simba likes Dan in Real Life. If you haven't seen it, you should rent it right now. That's right, stop working, stop sitting, whatever you are doing, go rent it. Well, maybe if your working, wait until the end of the day. Dan in Real Life is awkward, uncomfortable and funny. It's something to help you stop stressing about your own life because most people have similar problems. 

5. If you've done all of the above, became so relaxed you took a nap and woke up rejuvenated, go outside and play in the puddles. Because let's be real, jumping in puddles is fun at any age. Then you can go back to your movie, coffee, duvet snuggles and go to bed.
