5 weekend wants!

After what was a beautiful week, we are coming to an end with a nice, cozy rainy day.
With a full agenda this weekend- it's nice to have a day inside enjoying the simple pleasures in life;  Coffee and children.


you feeling this way too?

driftwood hooks are sure to make any wall of your home envious of the next-
they come in an array of colors-
stick with one color for monochromatic look or mix it up on a white wall.

birthday brownie pops!
We're celebrating my friends' 30th this weekend- so I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate.
(besides dancing and champagne- well maybe, champagne- then dancing :)  For some reason or another I'm always a better dancer then. :)


Sit back and enjoy the weekend.

me want.

my day...

This is how my day went:

I mean, I wake up early every day, but it felt SO early this morning.
Usually I can get Linden to watch some tv with me and snuggle.
Not this morning, she was ready to take on the world.
me? not so much.



Maybe this was why I was so tired this morning?



lazy or getting old?



it was actually the most beautiful day here today.  we spent most of it at the park, going on  a walk, and of course chowing down on some frozen yogurt!


of course she had the BIGGEST smile after I took the picture.
stinker.

bunker up.

Last Sunday morning a wonderful man, my uncle, passed away from a brutal fight with pancreatic cancer.
My family and I have been busy traveling and spending quality time with family.
The service was quite beautiful and being the "planner of all planners", my uncle had it planned perfectly.
a great uncle, a great father, a great son, a great boss, a great co worker, a great friend, a great husband.
He was great.  He will be terribly missed.
We love you.




On a much different note, my husband and I are at it again.  It seems as when a year comes around, we must sell and buy again.  Although this time, we mixed it up.  We decided to rent since we didn't find anything on the market last year and now it's a whole new ballgame.  We have seen lots and liked lots.
Which brings me to today's topic.  Bunk beds.
It's funny how you look at homes differently once you have kids.
It used to be, "Wow- what a great room, this is the perfect wine cellar!!"  Now it's more like, "sweet room, this would be the PERFECT playroom!"
Do I hear an amen?!?

Which one would you pick?















happy tuesday!



(Right?!?!)
