Spring To-Do Review.

So some might remember that I made a to do list for things I wanted to accomplish this spring. You don't? Well apparently neither did I (it is here if we need a refresher). I managed to successfully accomplish five of my list of ten.

Taylor Swift Weekend.

So this one time we went to see Taylor Swift for our anniversary. Wait that was this past weekend and it was epic. I have really yet to come up with a better way to describe it. It was a fantastic weekend spent in Toronto with the husband. It turned out to be one of those weekends where everything kind of just goes together nicely. Like we are able to do everything we wanted, there was no stress to make it to a certain place on time or rush to get things done.

Deodorizing Disks {DIY}.



I came across a wonderful idea to make deodorizing disks thanks to Pinterest  It seemed to be a wonderful idea for a useful yet inexpensive baby shower gift. So I tucked it away on one of my Pinterest boards and waited for the opportunity to use it. I have since made them twice and I love the outcome as they are easy to make, inexpensive, useful and make a super cute gift. The deoderizing disks are made to go inside of a diaper pale and are said to work for up to a month absorbing smells. The amount of essential oil is so low that they are safe around reusable diapers and after they stop absorbing you can throw the used one into a really dirty load of laundry to help freshen.

The first round of making the deodorizing disks was for a lady in my small group who had a beautiful girl. The next go around was for my best friends sister who had a little boy. I am so glad that I tried them again. On the one hand they were super easy to make, however because the first time around I made them in a hurry and they did not sit long enough, the inside of the jar started to have condinsation. So I decided to give them another try since the only expesive part of making them is the essential oil and I already had that.
