Making it home

We bought a new home this last summer. So I am slowly getting it all 'done'. I found a few things to finish up the look of my kitchen and laundry room. Of course I am never really done, I'm always moving things around.

Junk *updated*

Did a little junk shopping with my hubby yesterday. Found this awesome trunk. Loved the color and roughness of it. Has no lid but I have a idea!
Will post photos soon of my idea.


* I've been searching for a table for beside the bed in my guest room. So when I found this trunk I knew I had to have it. Got it cleaned up and then stole the stuff from other rooms. I love how it turned out. Now to figure out the rest of the room.

Day 1 -5

Went shopping on Saturday day 3 and totally forgot about a photo of my neighborhood.  Here's what I've got so far...


Day #1 Up

Day #2 Fruit...yes that is a cherry pie from McDonalds, yummo

Day #4 Bedside.  Love this table, my dad made it when he was a kid.  So lucky to have this cute litte table.

Day #5 Smile.  Inside my dishwasher...

March Challenge

So I'm a little late is getting this posted.  But better late than never.  I am loving Instagram.  So I'm on board for this. 

I'm hooked.....

I finally gave into peer pressure. All my friends were doing it....even 2 of my boys. Over and over I heard that I HAD to do it. So Friday night I finally did. Yes I'm talking about the Hunger Games. I couldn't put it down it was so good. Yet like nothing I normally read. When I heard what it was about I thought my friends are crazy it sounds so weird. Man was I ever wrong. I'm impressed and can't wait to read the next one. Can't wait for the movie. Have you read it? You have to!

Girls Trip

I have the most amazing group of girlfriends. Five us are getting close to leaving for our 2nd Annual Beach Trip. I am so ready. 3 days of beach time, lots of laughs, great food and little sleep. No kids, no husbands and no cooking! Woo hoo.

" I will never sleep because I'm afraid of missing something beautiful"

Simple

Maybe it's getting older.....but I've noticed little things in life make me so happy.  I know it's silly, but so true.  Every morning I brew a pot of coffee for my sweet husband.  I always kept it in the normal ugly plastic container.  Then one day I remembered I had a cute little glass jar. So now every morning I smile when I add coffee to the pot.  How can such a small object make me so happy? 

I love it!
