Well, shoot, if you blinked you missed September! Or so it seemed... I had a really busy month, but was a little light on posts around here. I hope you don't mind; I have a couple more crazy weeks and then a bit of a lull for a few weeks, so I'm planning to get some major projects around my house wrapped up. Woo hoo! But here's what I DID share during September, just in case you missed it... My Director's Office makeover Feed a Crowd Taco … [Read more...]
DIY Wood Pallet Projects {Inspiration Galore!}
October 1, 2014 by · 6 Comments
OCTOBER!! I can't even ... what the heck happened to September?! Oh my... We're still having 80+ degree days here, but the mornings are cooler and the humidity not quite so high, so I know fall is creeping in. I'm ready! I've got a list of projects I want to do a mile long and not enough hours in the day, but it's fun to gather inspiration for when I DO have time to immerse in a good DIY. I'm so fortunate to know so many talented DIY … [Read more...]
What I’m Reading, Loving, and Working On…
September 25, 2014 by · Leave a Comment
Hi, everyone! I was a traveling fool last week and have totally paid the price this week, both at home and at work. Isn't that the rub? Add in another bout of insomnia and it's not been a productive week. I would love to slow everything down but... during the fall? Not happening! Anyway, I had two wonderful trips, spent time with my boy and friends AND my BFF and had some very happy experiences along the way. I can't even tell you how … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It {August}
September 8, 2014 by · 1 Comment
Well, the weekend flew by, didn't it?! I enjoyed some furniture painting and a little bit of crafting, but mostly got a few things ticked off my to-do list. And added some more to it! I realize it's already 8 days into September, but I thought I'd go ahead and recap August here before I got too much further behind. :) It seemed August was a month of updates, like my back deck... and my guest room. I also shared a couple of … [Read more...]
What I’m Reading, Working on, and Loving…

We had a soggy weekend here... Not a total washout, but my hopes of getting poolside were dashed by the to do list and off and on storms and showers. The upside? I got my DIY back on and finished a book. Among other productive things like back to school stuff and getting the college kids somewhat situated. So today's a great day to share some snippets of what's going on... I just finished Save the Date by Mary Kay Andrews. She's become one … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It (June)
July 1, 2014 by · 1 Comment
This summer is absolutely flying by! I turned the calendar over to July this morning and it looks to be another busy month of family, a little travel, and hopefully some good projects around the house. I also looked back over my posts in June and though it was lighter posting schedule there were some goodies in there! I shared some of my favorite catalog finds for outdoors... Still love this stepping stone from Home Decorators … [Read more...]
This ‘n That Thursday
June 26, 2014 by · 3 Comments
Well, I unintentionally went MIA for a week! There was lots of doings but I couldn't quite sit down to share until now... hope you don't mind! Last week, I was consumed with doing something I have never ever done. At least not for myself. I bought a car. My 14 year old Expedition is on it's last legs, and after about two years of knowing this day was coming, it was time to make a change. And I agonized. Y'all. I did research and drove … [Read more...]
8 Good Reads for Summer
June 17, 2014 by · 3 Comments
I can't believe I'm already three weeks into my summer and haven't finished my first book! I blame it on being seriously brain dead and also trying to get some things done around the house. Hopefully I'll carve out some good reading time over the next few weeks, now that I'm getting back on top of things at home. I've been reorganizing (and redecorating) my bookshelves and handling my books has reminded me how much I enjoyed some of them. So I … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It x2 (April and May)
June 2, 2014 by · 1 Comment
Y'all I'm so far behind, I never recapped April! And since my feed was doing wonky things in late April/early May, I figured it warranted a quick recap of both months! I finally was able to regroup a bit after the crowd of young adults left on Saturday... things will be a tad quieter here now, so I've been working on some new DIY ideas and gathering supplies for a couple of home projects (yay summertime!). But before we embark on June, let's … [Read more...]
Preschool Moms Tea… the “Decor”
May 15, 2014 by · 2 Comments
Hi friends! We're in the midst of that frenetic slide into the end of the school year, both at home and work. All good, but how I manage to forget the craziness from year to year is beyond me. :-) Anyhoo, I thought I'd share some sweet pics from the "decor" of our Moms' Tea last week... such a wonderful celebration of motherhood and my preschool moms are always -- somehow -- the absolute BEST. The "books" on the tables … [Read more...]
