Hello, dears! I pray you are all resting and reveling in holiday festivities with your loved ones. It's hard to believe 2015 is almost in the books! I thought this year would never end sometimes, and at other times it absolutely flew by with so much going on. Maybe you feel the same? Either way, I'm looking forward to all that 2016 holds and am spending these last days of 2015 reflecting, praying over the days to come, and contemplating my … [Read more...]
Top Five in 2015
Christmas in My Home
Well. You know when you have a plan -- a time-table -- all mapped out for getting everything done and being able to kick back and enjoy the holidays? Yeah. Well, that was me. Until the flu. I'm talking laid out in the bed can't pick your head up your kids don't see you for days flu. Truth be told, I'm still only about 30%, but I can be upright for stretches of time, so I call that progress. My decorating had at least been started, the … [Read more...]
Five on Friday
Whew, what a week! Somehow this last week of July has ended up being the busiest I've had all summer.

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...]

In Case You Missed it: October
Oh my goodness. November, y'all. Over the weekend, I had to turn my heat on and we enjoyed our first fire of the season... well, the boys and I did anyway. The hubs was off to enjoy his first weekend of hunting season. So I got my craft on in a huge way and got my booth all squared away for our Holiday Open House later this week! I'll share pics on Wednesday, but for today I'm recapping a very busy October. Just in case you missed it. I … [Read more...]
Five on Friday
Holy smokes, y'all... tomorrow is November! Yowza! If you follow me on Instagram, you know I had a busy week with the Little Ones -- Halloween is so much fun for them I always feel like I'm along for their ride, at least for a couple of days. :) Anyway, I enjoyed sharing a little randomness last Friday, so I'm thinking every so often I'll offer up a Five on Friday post, just for fun. I've been back on my painting and DIY'ing horse this … [Read more...]
Gallery Wall Tweaks
Hump day, friends! I don't know about you, but I'm already looking forward to the weekend!

Today let's look at a couple of new additions to my family room gallery wall! Let's take a peek at what it looked like when I first finished it … [Read more...]
Five on Friday
Howdy hoo, y'all... and TGIF! I've had a super busy week and am really looking forward to some downtime and fun this weekend. I've had a few things mulling around my brain this week, so thought I'd just smoosh them all into one random post. Hope you don't mind! 1 A Whole30 update. Okay, here's the deal. Eating clean, whole foods and eliminating all the sugars and preservatives really hasn't been that hard. In fact, the hubs and I … [Read more...]
Catalog Finds: Anthropologie
Hey there... I hope your week is off to a great start! We got our first blast of fall weather over the weekend and it got me so revved up to embrace the season at last! A couple of weeks ago the new Anthropologie Home catalog turned up in my mailbox and I spent a good hour going through it... their photographs are so richly staged with their home products I kept finding new and intriguing pieces every time I went back through. And it also … [Read more...]
In Case You Missed It {August}
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...]
