I’ve had some “moments” this week…he’s 7, this year we’ll celebrate our 10th wedding [...]

Renovations…Kitchen Love!

April 15, 2013

Our house didn’t sell.  Which is ok really.  In the past week however, after almost 2 months of silence, I’ve had 6 calls to show our house.  It’s off the market now though since another neighbor is buying the house we’d wanted just 2 doors down.  I’m not moving just to move!  We love our [...]

Super Pretty Pennant Banners!

September 15, 2012

I’ve been quiet around here lately.  No really deep reason, just that I wanted to live without putting pressure on myself to write about it all the time too.  In the past week or so, I’ve spent some good time at home and loved playing water guns with my kids (among other games), refinishing a [...]

Friends, I have been so excited to share this super fun thing with you that I’m working on.  In fact, I have 3 projects I’m working on for different clients.  The fun part is that they are each totally different.  I’m decorating a 6-year-old boy’s room, redecorating a dentist’s office, working on a Master Bathroom [...]

Laundry Room! The Big Reveal!

June 27, 2012

Well friends, it took about 4 times as long as we thought to finish our laundry room re-do, but it’s pretty much done now.  (Well except for where the plumber cut the sink hole in the counter too large and we had to order a new counter top.  Still waiting on that, but such is [...]

I’m up to my eyeballs in Christmas decorations around here. This is the first year EVER that I have even gotten my Christmas stuff down before Thanksgiving.  If I don’t get a jump on it though, there’s no way I’ll get it done in time for the Lily Pottery Jewelry show that I’m having here [...]
