Custom Golf Club Headcover

6.23.2016

Get a custom made headcover of your pet!

I’d like to introduce you all to the Most Wonderful Thing in the Whole World. You may be asking yourself, what could possibly win the title of the Most Wonderful Thing in the Whole World? Well let me start by telling you I also have officially won the title of Best Wife in the Whole World, to go along with the Most Wonderful Thing in the Whole World.

My husband’s birthday recently passed, and as I sat pondering what I could get him (between golf supplies, golf clothes, or father/daughter time with our cat daughter), I suddenly remembered his incessant begging from the previous year. He was convinced that I could make him a Lucy (our cat daughter) golf club cover by hand. He was wrong. There was no way I could ever reproduce a faux LucyBear headcover, especially if he wanted it to look like our cat at all. I know I’m a pretty spectacular crafter, but this was just out of my range.

So enter in my recent wonderful wife award. While contemplating what I could get him, and cruising Pinterest again, I found the most amazing gift in the whole world. While I may not be able to make a Lucy headcover, this wonderful lady in London sure could. I found her Etsy site, and immediately knew it would be the Most Wonderful Thing in the Whole World for my husband’s gift. I sent her photos of Lucy, explained she didn’t need to be “to-scale” since Lucy is a trim 24 lbs, and sent the cash! Then I waited…

After a few weeks, my Most Wonderful Thing in the Whole World gift showed up at the front door, and I knew I was about to win the Best Wife in the World title. Before I gave him his gift, I told him it was a combination of his two favorite things. He knew immediately it was Lucy and golf. Needless to say, he was ecstatic, and promptly gave me the award for Best Wife. I’d like to thank the little people. And Andreana of course. 😉

    “I told him it was a combination of his two favorite things. He knew immediately it was Lucy and golf.”

    He didn’t immediately know it was his wife and something else. I mean shouldn’t his wife be in the category of two favorite things.. 🙂

    Sigghh. Such a dreamy post. Congratulations on the award 😉 And that was such a thoughtful and amazing gift <3 You totally deserve the award 😉
    I always feel so lost when I think what to gift my hubby :\ For one, he is not very excited about birthdays like I am (I get jumped up from the month of June,which is my bday month 😛 ) and two, somehow he gets the clue of my gift or parties I plan for him so easily 🙁 🙁 The only way I can surprise him is if I plan a party two days before I guess 😛

    P.S.- Am so green at your crafting abilities. 😀 You are a whole perfect package for a wifey you know that 😉

      Oh my gosh that is so nice of you to say! I always try to find “the perfect gift” and I take notes all year long when he mentions anything! I use Pinterest to keep a board for gift ideas! Hahaha.

        Oh my God!! That is so cute 🙂 And with your creativity you can actually make use of those ideas unlike me where I can just ogle at it and see where I can buy it 😛

Don’t spend today wishing for tomorrow. Find five Don’t spend today wishing for tomorrow. Find five things every night that you’re thankful for, and BE thankful for them. So much of our lives are spent waiting for the next best thing when in reality, it’s sitting right in front of us.
If there’s anything I’ve learned in this life, it’ If there’s anything I’ve learned in this life, it’s to SLOW DOWN.

So much of life is spent going, going, going. Waiting for the next stage. Telling ourselves, “Once we get through this, things will be easier.” Once the kids are older. Once life settles down. Once we have more time. But what if we’re missing the whole point? Because the moments we’re so eager to get through ARE the moments.

Today is the important stuff. The ordinary days. The messy days. The little conversations, the giggles, the routines, the chaos, the moments that don’t feel significant while we’re living them. We spend so much time wishing for the next chapter that we forget we’re already living one we’ll someday wish we could go back to.

So slow down.

Be here.
Pay attention.
Let the moment take as long as it needs to.

Because someday, these will be the days we miss.

This is your permission slip to let the crafts be This is your permission slip to let the crafts be messy. 

They don’t need to match your house. They don’t need to be Pinterest-worthy. They don’t need to be made with a neutral color palette and a Cricut. They just need to be theirs.

Because someday I’m probably going to miss the paper scraps, the glue everywhere, the questionable color combinations, and the little masterpieces I had no idea what to do with. Let them make the ugly craft. Let them make a mess. Let them create something that looks nothing like what you had in mind.

This is NOT a post to bash moms that are happy the This is NOT a post to bash moms that are happy their kids are going back to school. My neighbors and I commiserate all summer long about how long the days are, how frustrating the kids can be, how much they’re fighting, etc. 

But my days are always like that, and even though it’s exhausting and overwhelming at times, I wouldn’t trade it for the world. Even if I only have ONE moment like this a day, it’s one moment a day I could miss out on if they were in a traditional school. 

So here’s to whatever choice you are making in regards to your kids education. What’s best for YOU is most important. And what’s best for us is this.

turns it into an activity. We spent the afternoon mixing the slime, experimenting with different textures, and (of course) testing out the ridiculously funny booger and fart pranks. 🤣

My girls were completely entertained, and I loved watching them create, experiment, and laugh together. It feels like pure fun for the kids, but there’s actually some pretty cool science and engineering behind it all, plus Mark Rober walks you through even more with the QR code inside the kit.

Who in your family would be the first prank target?

A core memory I didn’t know I’d be making… This w A core memory I didn’t know I’d be making…

This weekend at church, my daughter got to light the candles for the first time. At the end of the service, when she went up on her own to extinguish them, proud tears dropped from my eyes. And as I looked around at others, I noticed I wasn’t the only one. 

If you had asked me in my early to mid twenties, I wouldn’t have imagined how much this community, this faith, and these little traditions would come to mean to our family. There was a season of my life, long before I became a mom, where I drifted away from actively going to church. Now, getting to watch my girls grow up surrounded by faith, love, and a church family who knows them and celebrates them feels like such a gift.
