Hello my friends!! I know I've been missing for awhile but I've had a little lack in motivation since we got back from the cruise. I have an embarrassing confession for you: We just took one of our Christmas trees down last weekend, and the other one is still up in the basement! I know you are thinking I am a total slacker ... and you are right! We left for our cruise on the 1st, and we didn't have time to get it down before we left. Then we got back on the 11th, and it took all we had just ... VIEW POST

2015 Christmas Tour Finale
Happy Monday my friends!! Hope you all had a great weekend! We had a perfect holiday party on Friday night. The unnamed child brought her boyfriend over for the first time, and being thrown into that much family is enough to send anyone running for the hills. Let's cross our fingers he comes back. Yesterday, I should have been working on projects, but it was a rainy, gloomy day, so we went to eat at Cracker Barrel, took a few new shots of the tree in the basement, wrote my post and watched ...

Home for the Holidays Christmas Tour
Happy Monday everyone! I hope you all had a good weekend! Ours included Topher's office Christmas party, which included a murder mystery that we all took part in. Nothing says Christmas like a little dead body. The unnamed child went to her first dance club ... which made me a little nervous. She and her friends are only 18, which means they can't drink, but it doesn't stop the drunk 40 year olds there from hitting on her. All-in-all, they learned some country two step and some line ...

2015 Christmas Mantel
Happy Monday my friends!! I hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving! Ours was great. We hosted Thanksgiving dinner for my side of the family this year (we switch off going from one side of the family to the other each year). Everyone was able to come (the unnamed child had to work all day, but got off just in time to eat), and we of course stuffed ourselves silly. Shortly afterward, we got a big ice storm, which I could have done without, but it did start to melt off yesterday. I can't ... VIEW POST
Laundry Room Makeover
Do you have a room in your house that is a complete disaster? One where you make sure the door is closed anytime you have company so they aren't appalled by the way you live? Well, I actually have two of those rooms, but I decided to conquer my laundry room first. Let me prepare you my friends. We have lived in our home for 9 years, and we have not done one thing to this room in that time, except for add a bunch of hoard to it. I have no idea how things like dog clothes, purses, hair ...

Christmas Home Tour 2013
This Christmas, things are a bit different for me. Usually I am the one that has all of her Christmas shopping finished by Thanksgiving and all of her presents wrapped by December first. Then I get to sit around and think how happy I am that I am not out in all of that crazy traffic or waiting in those long lines at the mall. Well, that plan was shot to heck this year. When we went on our cruise, we were out of town for 10 days. As soon as we got back, and I got caught up ... VIEW POST
