Friday Wrap Up

Good morning, friends!  I'm back again this week to just wrap up and also to say -- THANKSGIVING???  It feels really early this year, or maybe I'm just behind again?  I think since I haven't been doing any decorating and recipe posts, this totally snuck up on me. Except that we hosted over 100 grandparents at Legacy this week for our annual Grandparents Brunch!  This is a pre-Thanksgiving tradition that we carried over from the school we were … [Read more...]

In Case You Missed It (September & October)

I cannot believe it's already November!  It seems like time just speeds up from year to year, doesn't it?  Well, at least I got back on a semi-regular posting schedule. :)  So just in case you've missed something from the last couple of months... I caught you up on my life lately back in September -- which was a whole lotta Legacy and getting my kiddos off and running on new adventures. You wouldn't believe how much those sweet peas in … [Read more...]

Country Living Fair Finds {Monday Eye Candy}

The weekend sure flew by didn't it?  I'm back today with a little eye candy for you in the form of my Country Living Fair finds!  I was on a tight budget this year, but I picked up several fun gifts/stocking stuffers this year, along with a couple of decor items.  For me it's more about the inspiration I collect at the Fair than the purchases, but I was tickled this year with what came home with me. As you can see, lots of small things -- … [Read more...]

Five on Friday: Fall Fashion Edition

TGIF!  Whew, another week down and it was a good one.  Earlier this week I was seriously under the weather and to pass the time I prowled around on Pinterest for some fun fall outfits.  It's been so warm here I have yet to wear a sweater or boots!  But I found some fun outfits I would totally wear and thought I'd share them with you for today's Five on Friday ... just in case you need a little inspiration for your own wardrobe! 1.  Chambray, … [Read more...]

A Front Porch Peek!

Hi friends...  I've been under the weather this week (ugh -- who has time for that??) so I'm behind on my front porch progress, of course.  But I've done enough that I thought I'd share a peek at it today after all. We've had sunny warm weather so at least it's been pleasant while I'm out there, even if it doesn't feel particularly fall-like.  I think the kiddos will be trick or treating in shorts this weekend! Remember that I spray … [Read more...]

Country Living Fair 2016

Monday, Monday... that alarm clock was tough to handle this morning and I'm not feeling so hot, but -- onward!  I had a full weekend of Country Living Fair, college football, house cleaning, church, and porch decorating and then a Legacy board meeting last night ... whew!  We finally have a touch a chill in the air (hope it lasts!?!) so it's easy to embrace the wonderful that is fall at last. I hit the Fair on Friday as promised and it did NOT … [Read more...]

Country Living Fair Bound!

Happy Friday, friends... it's been a busy week and I'm headed to the fair today -- the Country Living Fair, that is!  I'm so excited to get some inspiration and hopefully get a head start on some holiday shopping!  Last year I scored quite a few unique things so I have high hopes for this year as well. I've made some more progress on my porch, so hopefully will be ready to share that soon.  I've taken the pressure off though because I know the … [Read more...]

What I’m Reading, Loving, and Working On…(and a Winner!)

Thank you to those that entered my Country Living Fair giveaway!  I've put the lucky winner at the bottom of this post... October is already flying by, isn't it?  I feel like I'm already running from one thing to another, don't you?  I have to say, though, October is one of my favorite months of the year with so many festive events, the gorgeous shift to fall weather and that teensy window of time to just enjoy before the madness of the … [Read more...]
