the rockstar

I am missing this lady a lot lately. I don't know if it's because her birthday would have been on Saturday, or the wedding planning and thinking about how supportive and excited she would have been with the whole process. My Mam-maw passed away the summer after I graduated high school, and now looking back I wish I would have savored every moment with her. Every kiss, every poached egg breakfast she made me. If wish I would have asked her a million questions and hugged her a little tighter. I realized this morning I can't recall the sound of her voice anymore, and that makes my heart hurt a little.

wasn't she beautiful?

Chalkboard Kitchen and a Date

We turned Chris's kitchen into a giant chalk board. Probably not the best idea for a girl with ADHD since I can't stop drawing on everything. and we finally set a wedding date, church and venue booked. Now for the long list of everything else! {241 days to go till the hitching}

what we used:
+ Chalkboard paint
+ 1 gallon of flat black interior paint
+ Countertop paint
+ Crayola Chalk

+Ready Set Go stamps and Hero Arts Neon Ink it the top right photo

whitetrash whimsy

my most recent, random (a little impractical) house whims

1. Curtains outside. Sunshine yellow preferably

what happened to this show on Bravo?

2. A swing inside. Because that's just fun.

3. teepee. more grown up than a blanket fort. the photo wallpaper is just a bonus

4. Pretty painted stairs

Random Whimsy

brainstorming Halloween costumes already and its only August.

Fall is coming. I despise coffee but this photo makes me want to learn to like it.

My mom and dad need to have a motto like this for our farm
