Sunday Snapshot: the way it is

Sunday Snapshot: the way it is

True. A buffet is an odd subject of a Sunday Snapshot. And yes, a dozen or more pictures is a lot to share of a single piece of furniture. But this particular piece of furniture has a bit of a story. And because I’m a self-confessed softie when it comes to old furniture – and thought some of y’all might… Read More

Sunday Snapshot: our new digs

Sunday Snapshot: our new digs

Welcome. I’m glad you’re here. I’m not going to show y’all everything because, well… some stuff simply isn’t done yet. But I thought you might like to have a peek at some of what is ready for visitors. This is my room. It’s right off the entry way and is where I do all my stuff. At this desk is… Read More

don’t hate me…

don’t hate me…

because I had a lime green bathroom. With bright brass fixtures. Because it is lime green no more. I do still have the bright brass fixtures, though. Haters to the left.Anyhoo, since I’ve been blah-blah-blahing about all these DIY projects, I figured I’d share one with y’all. This one my sweet sister tackled with me. I mean, who wants to… Read More

coming clean

coming clean

I’m afraid I might have misled a few of y’all. Based on some comments here and on FB, I got the impression that it might have appeared (based on my last post) that I am unhappy in my current painting-sanding-taping-refinishing-organizing craziness. Okay, I did detest the insane amount of mental energy (and math skills that I do NOT possess) to… Read More

Sunday Snapshot: my kitchen counter

Sunday Snapshot: my kitchen counter

I woke up this morning wondering what I was going to post for my Sunday Snapshot. Because there is so much going on. But so little to show for it. At least for the time being. And then I walked into my kitchen and it dawned on me. My kitchen counter is a microcosm of my life right now. Basically… Read More

Sunday Snapshot: 28 days

I missed those big feet. And everything that’s connected to ’em. He got home late last night. After being away for 28 days. 28 loooong days that he’s been in Birmingham, at his new job at Lifeline. Yeah, he’s been gone for all the sickness, craziness, and heartbreak of the last few weeks. I didn’t say anything here because, well…… Read More

A visit from G.G.

A visit from G.G.

My mom came down to visit us this weekend. It was great to have G.G. here, the girls loved having someone around who would accomodate the most indulgent request they could muster. We spent a majority of our time together just hanging out, playing Jenga with Asher and watching the girls act silly in front of the newest spectator. But… Read More

La casa

La casa

I know it’s boring, but I thought some of you guys, friends and family we don’t get to see often, might want to see pics of the new house. I am adding some updated pics of the outside also, since the grass has finally started to come in! It looks so much better after some wonderful rain (and some help… Read More
