New Garden Design and Product Links

This weather has been wreaking havoc across the country, and our area has not been spared. Florida has been seeing some historic lows, snow, and some areas south of us have even been experiencing colder temps than we’ve had here at our home… CRAZY!!! The winds have also been pretty rough and have caused a bit of damage.

If you are looking for links to the garden products… go to the bottom of the post!

Then the groundhog said that there’ll be six more weeks of winter??? Well, we took care of that groundhog… just kidding, but we did have a good meal to celebrate Groundhog Day.

Making Memories: A Simple Winnie the Pooh Themed Baby Shower with Recipe Links and Printable Games

Whew… what a crazy month July was. We were rushing to get our house remodeled. It seems we always have some big project before a big event. Everything turned out great though and we were blessed to have so many family and friends come to help us celebrate the new arrival… he should be here ANY DAY NOW!

It’s starting to feel like home….

This past week, we got the house back in order and got all of the decorations packed away until the next event… we did make a rule that baby showers/weddings need to happen before May 31st or after September 1st… it’s just too darn HOT here! Our poor ACs can’t keep up with the heat, especially when the doors are constantly opening/shutting, but we survived so it’s all OK. What isn’t Ok is last month’s electric bill!!! That was crazy and the company keeps going up and adding charges on top of regular charges… it is just completely ridiculous!

It’s starting to feel like home…

The past couple of months have been so stressful. It started as a long-awaited master bathroom remodel that had to be put on hold due to an unexpected emergency with a family member. This emergency meant that we needed to focus on other areas of the house… things that we had planned to do in the future- after the bathroom.

Another project took over so that we could create another room in the house and it is finally finished. There are some touchups to complete and I know there will be some furniture changes in the future but it is finished for now… at least until after the upcoming baby shower.

I’ve been wanting to put a wall up between the breakfast area and the den for long time. I created a wall and separated the area in so many ways over the past few years that I felt confident that a wall would be beneficial. You can see some of the many ways that this space has changed HERE.

Polar Express 2024

Hey everyone!

How are you doing? We are doing great… I had to take a couple of days to recuperate from the Polar Express Party. It was so much fun but it did take a lot out of me… I ended up with a migraine that night and spent the next two days in bed with a dreaded FIBRO FLARE but it was worth it… everyone seemed to have a great time.

I didn’t get as many pictures as I should have as I was too busy taking it all in… the smiles, the laughter, and just the blessing of being surrounded by friends and family.

We made some Fudge and Sourdough for gifts plus we still had some things left over from the baby shower and wedding earlier this year so those were given as gifts as well… the kids got lots of little toys and some cocoa and popcorn for their own movie night plus some really cute cups that I found at Dollar Tree…
