Catchup Time


Wow! I haven't done a post since March 9th! I've been a blog slacker before, but never this bad. I honestly just can't ever think of anything to blog about! I guess I need to get a new camera spice up my life. So here are a few things that have happened lately.
 
We went to Riverfest a couple of weeks ago in Vicksburg with my brother, Zach and Mallory. Sooo glad we ended going because it was so much fun and I got to see Lindsey and Hunt.
 
By the way, Lindsey's design blog, Sugar Plums, has some cute new wreaths at great prices. Go by and check them out!!
 
Sorry for the blurry pic, but Myers had a program at school last week and it was sooooo sweet. I can't believe how big he is getting. He did such a great job singing all the songs.
Here he is with Harris afterwards.
 
I just love this pic that I stole from my mom's fb page. Just makes me smile every time I see it!
 
Over the weekend, we got to watch Trey and Morgan Stokes get married. It was such a beautiful wedding, and we had such a great time!

Here we are before heading to Belzoni for the festivities.


Hope everyone has a happy hump day!!

Framed Wreath



This was my little project for last week...
 

I think I orginally saw this on Pinterest, but not sure. I had these frames that I bought last year at Hobby Lobby. I had two this size and one longer one that I was originally using as shelf fillers, but wanted to do something cuter with them. Enter my sweet friend, Lindsey, of Sugar Plum Designs. She made these cute mini moss wreaths for me. I had some burlap left over from making some curtains last year, so I just cut strips and tied the wreath inside the frame. Love these on my wall. I did one in my living room and one in my bedroom. I think I am going to have her do a moss "J" for the longer frame. Can't wait!

Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday!!

John Franklin and a New Table!


Last night I got to take food to my sweet friends, Amy and J.D. Their sweet little boy is 3 weeks old now, and boy is he cute!! I just already love this angel.
Now that is a handsome little man. (Ignore Greasy/Slouchy Bear on the right. Someone had to hold the baby.)

We got a new kitchen table yesterday, and I'm in love with it! Here's a few pics...

 






Side note: I guess I didn't get the memo that chairs are now more expensive than the table. Geez! No joke... After we paid for them, Justin said, "We don't need to be letting people sit in these. They're expensive." So I guess people will have eat standing up at our breakfast table.

Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Bedroom Update


I've gotten some more work done on the bedroom and thought I would share a few pics...
 
View of both of my refinished night stands and Walmart lamps that I painted. Note: My headboard is not on my bed in this pic and I am currently having a white long pillow monogrammed for accross the front.


Closer view of the nightstand and lamp. I think I'm changing out that hardware to clear nobs too.


Bad lighting, but here is a dresser that I refinished for out TV. We have moved the TV on those boxes and put some decor on the other side. I'll try to get pics of that this week. We also put our painted bamboo that our friends, Whitney and Michael, gave us.
 
Now, I need one more piece of furninture. We have a blank wall, plus we are in desperate need of some more drawer space. I don't want to do the same grey, since the dresser, headboard and nightstands are already done that way. I haven't found the perfect piece, but I have found some inspiration on Pinterest.
 
 
I love the mirror leaning on this piece.
 
 
This piece is probably a little too much for the room, but I love it.
 
 
Also love this one. The simplicity is just what I'm looking for.
 
Hope everyone has a wonderful Monday!!
