Honestly & truly, I’m typically not one to redecorate my mantel every other week. Because who has time for all that? In our older home, our fireplace & mantel are in need of a big overhaul both inside & out. But we would need some major home improvement loans to accomplish all that it’s…

happy 4th of July!!!
We’ve had a full week already of celebrating everything July 4th-ish. A small town parade, watermelon contest, the lake, watching the hot sun go down every night & knowing Mom’s homemade breakfast will be there when you wake up. It’s been fabulous. Well, other than this massive heat wave. We visited my parents &…
a facelift for our home {exterior remodel and curb appeal}
Outside of giving birth to the kids & getting married, I think the biggest highlight for me as an adult was buying our first home. I wrote about it here, how it was love at first sight, along with the good, bad & the ugly. The characters & features of our home had me…

My MIL’s garden is starting (as always) to produce abundant crops. I have 2 huge bags of blueberries & lots of squash…
Summertime fun: make a recycled playhouse

Mini Chalkboard Chargers – Dollar Store Craft Idea
I’m typically not one of the smart bloggers that has genius ideas when it comes to Dollar Store items. Not that I’m too good to shop there, mind you. I like cheap stuff! It’s just that it’s packed in there & I never can think in packed spaces. But I guess it was finally…
easy & cheap July 4th table decor
I’m a seasonal – holiday – theme lovin’ junkie. Just in case you didn’t know. If you ever need to find me & I’m not at home, I’m in the seasonal section at Target. I squeal just a little when they change it all up. I do believe I’ve passed this love for all things…
what I wore
Just call me lazy. If you’ve ever clicked over to Lindsey’s party (What I wore Wednesday) you would see some gorgeous photos of beautiful women, who take their tripod out or maybe a friend & take some very styled pictures of themselves. Well folks, that ain’t happening over here. Good golly, that stuff takes a…
