A little house tour

I thought it would be fun to give you a little tour of my home. I'll do one room in each post. Just remember, it's a work in progress! I wanted to do my favorite room first, my dining room. I guess it's because the hubby and kids rarely go in there, so it stays nice and clean. (It's funny how fast a man and kids can destroy a house!) I just finished these covering these chairs this weekend. And yes, that's my K-Mart tray table! This is my beloved chandelier I bought from an antique store for $4o and spray painted sparkly silver! I need about a million of these shelves to display all my little collectables! (mostly bunnies!) Since I am not very computer savvy, I didn't know how to turn this picture around (Just turn your computer or head to the side :)). This china cabinet is way too small for me, but it will just have to do until I find the perfect one. My favorite picture of my favorite little girl!

Hope you enjoyed a little tour of my dining room! Next time, my office!

Preschool Graduate

This past week was our last week of preschool. The kids had an adorable preschool graduation for family to attend. They sang songs, got "diplomas", and had cake. Just wanted share a couple of pictures from this special event!


I am so proud of my little girl!

Bathing Suit Season

Since I was pregnant last summer, I didn't get to buy a cute bathing suit; just a maternity one (ugh!) I fell in love with this one the minute I saw it! It's Lilly, it's toile, and it's got removeable straps. How much more perfect can you get?! The problem is, my husband disagrees. He does NOT want me to wear a one-piece, even though that's what I feel most comfortable in. He says it's old-ladyish. So I need some advice- what do you guys think?

Happy Mother's Day!

Happy Mother's Day to all mother's out there. I hope you have had an amazing and blessed day! I got the best gift of all- my children were baptized today! It was a beautiful ceremony, and I can't think of a better way to have spent Mother's day! Here are a few pictures from our day. Our Family

Winslow's 6 Month Pictures

I can't believe little man is already 6 months old! The past six months has flown by so fast! Just wanted to share a few of his pictures we got done today. (These pictures haven't been cropped or touched up.)

Caspari at TJ Maxx

Everyone that knows me well knows that I love stationary and paper products, especially Caspari. It's definetly not cheap, but lately my local TJ Maxx has had a ton of it! Every week they have something a little different. I found all this cute stuff the past couple of weeks.
I was so thrilled when I found these dalmation birthday invitations! They were only $2.99 for ten, so I've already planned to use them for Winslow's first birthday. I also found this beautiful Caspari ribbon for just $2! Check your local TJ's; there's no telling what you might find!
