Yesterday was my birthday! I had such a great time. All of the kids came over, we had a cookout, went swimiing, sit around and enjoyed each others company. My cake was awesome! Thanks to the Bakerman! He is sooo booked up with weddings, but cranked out a delish cake! Many thanks to my daughter Jennifer for getting it.
Those two grandsons of mine can swim like fish!
Arent they handsome???

I was needing some inspiration today so I went to my old stand by and looked through some magazines and then went to Country Living on line. All photos are from the website. Enjoy!
Hi Everyone, hope you are having a great weekend so far. I spent most of yesterday cleaning house, unpacking more boxes and trying to make everything pretty. Today I resolve to rest! We are going to enjoy the pool and grill some burgers for lunch. I am enjoying the new house so much. It is very peaceful here and wonderful to come home from a hectic day and hop in the pool for a little unwinding time! I know we have been far more active since the move. It seems that we never sit in front of the TV anymore(which is a good thing) and all of our time is spent enjoying the backyard. It has been several years since I have lived in a home with such a great space to enjoy. I am loving every minute of it.
I hope you have a wonderful day and enjoy all the good things that God has provided for you. Take some meditiation time today and thank Him for all he does in your life!
I was browsing the other day at Pier One and found the cutest juice glasses! One has a rooster design and the other a cherry. I couldnt decide which I like the best, so decided to mix them and bought 2 of each design. Since then I have found that we are using them alot, so I am planning on making another trip to buy a few more. What do you think? I am just in love with them. Hope you have a great weekend!
Happy 4 th of July! Thank you to all of the brave men and women who fought for our freedom! Thank you for loving our country enough to give the ultimate sacrifice!

Hello,
Don't forget to hop over to Aunt Ruthie's today! She has been tempting us all week with a surprise unveiling today. Can you guess what it is? I could spend all day reading her blog and drooling over her fabulous pictures! Here is the link www.sugarpiefarmhouse.com
I know I have posted this picture before. It is in my favorites list and I keep going back to it. I have a woven basket exactly like the one shown. I have been searching for some nice baskets at the thrift store, but have turned up nothing so far. I have to make a trip out of town next week, and I plan to make some time to scour shops in a larger area. Wish me luck! Have a great week, and see ya soon!
Hi y'all, I have been busy as a bee this week! We were able to purchase the new home this week ! I am sooo excited about moving closer to work and making a nest together. As you may remember, I sold my house last week and we are currently living in my husbands home. I have a million ideas swirling through my head and cant wait to implement them in our new home. Here is a quick picture of the new kitchen. I am having mixed reactions from friends about the two colors of the kitchen. I personally love it. I think it really is a great idea to update an out of date kitchen. This house was built in the 1980's, so the cabinets show the dated construction. I simply cannot replace the entire kitchen cabinetry, so that is where paint comes into place.
I also found this great fabric today and am trying to find a great thrift chair that I can recover to place in the living room! It has the appearance of embroidery and I love the apple green in the details. I found this at Hancocks fabric 50% off.
We will have a breakfast nook in the house and I found this great table on clearance. I think I love it, but still looking for other possibilities. What do yall think??? Pair with some vintage thrift chairs, cover in black toile????
Now, I love this fabulous old fashioned chair and just cant get it off my mind. I hate it when that happens!!!! This chair is very costly, so I am looking for a cheaper alternative. I need this in my bedroom, to relax in and read a good book!
