My younger sister Hope and I are less than two years apart in age. We have always been close and even lived in Hawaii together for a few years together (those were the days). She was the maid of honor in my wedding and I performed the same role in her wedding. When she announced she was expecting her first baby, it was a foregone conclusion that I would be the host.

I was given colors-mint and baby pink-and the rest was up to me which is how I like it. I was able to incorporate some heirloom pink Depression glass and my favorite macaroons from Rick Erwin’s Deli in #yeahthatgreenville.
