So if you didn’t know I attended a blogging conference last week here in Atlanta. (Sorry if I bombarded you on facebook and twitter, it was just so exciting for me. Hope some of you found it interesting as well.) Honestly I have had a hard time putting into words my experience there – it […]
Friday Frugal Finds
I am at my second day of Haven conference today and absolutely LOVING it! If you want to follow along, I am sharing photos/updates on my facebook page and tweeting even more short quotes and info from sessions on twitter too. I am completely inspired, overwhelmed, and excited all at the same time! Loving some […]
Friday Frugal Finds: matching lamps, Christmas decor , and more!
Yay, for finds to show you this week! 2 weeks ago I was stranded at home over the weekend without a working vehicle so I didn’t get to shop any yard sales. But I made up for it last week! First off, I was having yard sale withdrawal so I decided to stop at Value […]
I’m going to Haven!!! (The BEST DIY/Home bloggers conference ever!) + some of my favorite DIY blogs
Since I was stranded at home last Saturday, I don’t have any yard sale finds to share for Friday Frugal Finds today. I did pop in Value Village and find some fun stuff though, but I think I will wait till next week to share that. Because I am bursting at the seams to […]
Shopping Estate Sales
A couple of weeks ago I was heading out on Friday on my normal errand day. As I head to town, I always look for any yard sale signs and stop along the way. Just a few miles from our house I came across an “Estate Sale” sign. I haven’t really shopped any estate […]

Monthly goals (goals to accomplish each month) Date nights every other week (Yep, did this!) Find ways to better our marriage – notes, meaningful conversations, make his life easier (work in progress) Read 1 book each month (STILL haven’t done this – I guess projects, shopping yard sales, spray painting, Pinterest, and blogging just overtake […]

Green wreath fix + some blog updates
Sorry for the late post today but things are a little crazy around here… My little Memorial Day weekend project has turned into a 2 week project (and STILL is not finished as evidenced by the picture.) But I already am loving the change and will really love it as soon as I can get […]
Summer begins with some red, white, and blue {Summer Patriotic mantel}
I don’t know about you but Memorial Day is sort of the official beginning of summer to me. School is out, June is just around the corner, 90+ degree temperatures have begun – yep, it’s summer! So it was time for my Spring mantel to say goodbye and time to decorate my mantel for summer. […]
Remembering…
I hope you are having a wonderful long weekend getting some projects done, resting, grilling some hamburgers, or spending some extra time with the family. My hubby had to work this morning but is headed home now! So I am checking out of the office and putting my “to-do list” aside to spend some time […]
