Whew, what a week! Somehow this last week of July has ended up being the busiest I've had all summer. I'm ready for the weekend and the hubs and I will be taking in Earth Wind and Fire with my inlaws -- how fun is that? And since today's Friday, let's do a Five on Friday -- that hodge podge of a post where I share random things! 1. A Paris Apartment. I shared that I was reading this a few weeks ago, so thought I'd recap my … [Read more...]

Happy Friday, friends! I've had a good week and it's finally starting to feel like summer... I even slept until 9 a.m. one morning -- total decadence, people. :) So today I'm sharing some "happies" -- just because.

What a great party in a newly opened antique mall (!) where we … [Read more...]

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend -- the FIRST weekend of fall! I'm feeling it now... cool breezes, the angle of the sun has changed a bit, a handful of leaves beginning to change (and fall). I even picked up a couple of (real) pumpkins at WalMart yesterday! Before I get to my fall mantel, I have to crow a bit about my DIY Mirrored Pumpkin feature over at Crafty Scrappy Happy's Happy Hour Features! Go check it out and check out all the … [Read more...]

Well, I'm still sorting out all the great information I got at Haven and having fun visiting the blogs of the ladies I met -- so much talent out there in the blogosphere! But a busy household waits for no one, so I'm getting hardly anything a few things done around here, too. And I was thrilled when my latest purchase from Decor Steals (formerly WUSLU) showed up on my doorstep! I love maps. They just speak of journeys and memories. … [Read more...]
