Peachy Not-So-Keen

As you well know, we have painted the rooms in our house multiple times already. I keep telling Tommy "this is the last time I'm painting, I promise there will be no more paint fumes in your house..." but so far my word hasn't proven very true! It's alright though because it keeps looking better and better! A few weeks ago (yeah, I'm really far behind on my blogs this month) my tall, pretty friend, Kara, helped me paint our bright peach livingroom! I tried and tried to work with this horrid color but it just wasn't happening! So ugly! It didn't seem that bad though until we covered it with a beautiful green!



These pictures were taken with my phone so there pretty stinky, but the color really is so pretty! I love to just sit in there and look at the walls :) it's coming together so nicely! I've been so blessed with all the help I've gotten from my buddies! I love my frands!

More pictures to come!

"The old shall become new..."

At the end of my last post I told you that my parents and I were refinishing some patio furniture for the house. Well it's finished! We moved it in Saturday. I just love it and I could not wait to share it with you!

AFTER!


we added the daisies tonight

Someone gave this set to my 'rents way before I was ever thought of. We're guessing its around 30 years old, but I'd swear it didn't look a day over 29! Give it some cosmetic surgery and elbow grease and it looks brand new! It's absolutly adorable and adds so much to the little porch area. Thanks mom and dad :)

Little House of Treasures

So I am super excited this week! Would you like to know why? Of course you would! That's why you're reading this, isn't it?! Okay I'll tell you.... WE HAVE A HOUSE! It's sooo precious! or at least we think so anyway. But if you'd seen the crappers we've looked at, you'd think of it as the Taj Mahal too! Seriously it's exactly what we've been searching for. It's tiny but not rediculously so. It has a big bedroom for  it's size (which will be important in 222 days if you catch my drift), an itsy bitsy fireplace, and a medicine cabinet! Personally, the medicine cabinet is my favorite feature because I've wanted one since I was a little girl so that I could keep my lipstick in it.
For those of you who have been on my facebook recently, this is old news since the lease was signed Monday. Truth be told I just haven't had time to blog about it and when I did I was without internet signal. But if you're feeling a little let down by the lack new information, I have a surprise for yooouuu...we now have stuff to go in it! We haaaaavvvvee livingroom furniture, new washer and dryer set, tv, entertainment center, freezer, and a grill for those All-American cook outs!

this is it! better pictures coming soon! i hope.
I am so incredibly excited and humbled by all that's been done for us and how God has blessed us. It has been really, really amazing. This year has had more extreame ups and downs than anything my mind could have cooked up but if we can make it through this one, we can make it through all of them.

Have a lovely today and an even better tomorrow! 

Ps. I'm in need of a cute music player. Help? Song for this post is Mushaboom by Fiest.
