A SUMMARY OF THE WEEK...

1. Super excited about my Asics Gel Tri Noosa's. They are crazy bright, but really fun. They even glow in the dark. I am all about workout gear being fun because somehow that makes working out easier...Can I get an Amen? My sweet husband found them at that shoe store over by Belmont, The Athlete's House. They always have shoes when no one else does, and they are usually way less than Fleet Feet and Dick's. Thank you husband! :)


2. How cute is Griffin in his little seersucker blazer? It is a 6-12 months and down to his knees. He will be 2 in a few weeks. He is a little shrimp. I love him so much. He is SO bad at times, though. He bit his sister right after this picture was taken. Anyone have any advice on biting? He only bites her. It is so weird!
3. Here is an Instagram picture of us eating pizza one night this week (I am too lazy to get up and download all the photos off of my Canon) and see how sweet he can be sometimes? He loves his mama. I wouldn't take anything for my mama's boy. And PS-He is currently side kicking the dog as I write this. I hope he bites him once. He kinda deserves it. HAAH!

4. Here is a sweet one of my girl dressed up as Rapunzel. She LIVES in princess world. And I do mean, LIVES. Her favorite words are magical, fairies, castle, party, etc etc etc. Basically she is me just a near five year old version. Too bad I don't look as cute as she does dressed up like a princess. The Rapunzel hair is one of her prized possessions!!!


5. One of my current obsessions: Annie Sloan chalk paint. Not to be confused with chalkboard paint. You can get this at select furnishing and paint stores. It basically gives a distressed look without distressing. There are lots of tutorials on using this stuff online. Check it out!
6. Paisley and I met our friends Erika and Camelia this weekend and painted pottery. Paisley chose a mug for her daddy and I painted the cutest serving piece that has cupcakes on it. I have to pick it up tomorrow. I will be sure to show you all a picture once I get it back from the studio. Paisley was stressed out the entire time. Bless her little heart. She is such a perfectionist! She had a complete meltdown and we had to start over about 12 times. She is so her mothers child. I couldn't get on to her too bad because I am the exact same way. But we finally finished and I don't know if we will do that again! Not without a Xanax first. I kid I kid.
7. We have had lots of rain this week! I feel like we need an ark! And yesterday, this beautiful rainbow appeared in the sky! I love rainbows! Did you know that God gives us rainbows to remind us that He will keep his promises to us? He is there and he is listening! Thank you Lord!
8. My sweet Paisley and I went on a ice cream date Wednesday after school. We went to our favorite place, Menchies. Do you have a Menchies in your area? It is THE BEST! We see country music singers there all the time! Its kinda fun! I love the Cookies and Cream and the Cheesecake.
9. I found this great art piece off of Craigslist this week. Griffin is about to get moved to his big boy room so we are redecorating thanks to Pinterest and too much time on my hands! HA! I love me some Craigslist!!!
10. Speaking of Griffin. I cannot believe that my sweet boy will be TWO in a few weeks. This was him at 2 days old, and dressed as my little Easter bunny. I love this picture so much. Maybe one of my favorites. He will hate me for it one day I am sure! HA. I hate that my kids have to grow up! Why can't I freeze time? I hope they know how much I love them.



What's going on with you? Leave me some comments! You know how much I love them!

OH Y'ALL...



I cannot believe I have not blogging lately and I apologize BIG TIME that I have been so MIA.....

Some recaps....

-I was considering taking a pharmaceutical job but I decided against it. I am supposed to be at home right now. I have to admit, it is harder than I thought. But I am way grateful.

-My best friend from childhood, Cara, had to say good-bye to her mother as she passed away from pancreatic cancer. Her mother was 61. Y'all please pray for this family as they grieve over the loss of their sweet wife and mom. I also have been at home in Mississippi for awhile with Cara and my family.

-I have been rearranging our current set up. Griffin's room is currently right off of our room and he will be moving upstairs to the guest room. So this means that I have to:
-Sell furniture
-Move all toys and belongings upstairs BUT
-Before that happens, I need to:
1) Paint
2) Pick Out Curtains
3) Buy new furniture for sitting room.

UGH. SO much to do. I need more hours in the day and more money for the budget. LOL. Sometimes I really hate pinterest. It makes me want to spend and craft and cook and lose weight. All at the same time!!! :)

I promise to start doing a better job!!!

AND THE GOLDEN GLOBE GOES TO...


My number one of the night goes to Lea Michelle. She looked amazing. UH-MAH-ZING. Make-up, body, dress, hair. This girl can rock it!

She is truly gorgeous!


Also loved Sofia Veraga. Unreal how beautiful she is. Maybe the Sophia Loren of our time!


Nicole looked great. I am not always a fan of her fashion looks, but girlfriend brought it last night!


Jessica Alba looked fantastic....Her best accessory? Her hawt husband Cash Warren!


Salma Hayek gave Sophia a run for her money last night! Beautiful and look at that hourglass figure.

Octavia Spencer looked wonderful! I was crying when she read her speech. SO proud of my hometown and The Help!


Nicole Richie looked gorgeous and very Old Hollywood Glam!


WORST DRESSED....

Reese needed to re-think this. It looks about 4 sizes too small. Smushed boobs and not sure about the hair, either!


Sarah Michelle Gellar looks great but the dress? Awful!!! She said her 2 year old picked it out. I think she colored on it with a magic marker, also.


Michelle Williams? Not crazy about her looks the last two years. Some people voted her best dressed. Not me.
And there aren't words for this. Kelly, what is UP with your hair? Awful.

And there you have it!
Who was your favorite? Least Favorite???

SOME THINGS I'M LOVING on this COLDDDDD FRIDAY!

This book is fabulous!! It will change your life and the way you look at food all together and you will start to question every single thing you put in your body. Beef? You will look at it so differently. Sugar? Dairy? The government tells us that all these things are all healthy and yet our nation is getting fatter and fatter. I have never been on this whole bandwagon but this makes you see things VERY clearly!! Download this now! You won't be sorry!

Switching gears, I am hoping for maybe a 2 piece this year?!?! LOTS of work to do.
From Nordstroms
Trina Turk. Love this!
I am also in love with Pinterest! Check out this little boy's room. How cool is the pirate ship on the ceiling that you can only access by a bridge? And the best part? There is a slide in it that shoots out in the laundry room basement!!! I am sure his dad is a builder!! HAHA!


I love this diet cheat sheet!!!


And what about this great drawer for jewelry made with cheap cute bowls and mismatched china from the dollar store and flea market! Love it!
And I am in LOVE with this idea for sippy cups!!! This is on my weekend project to-do list!
I also love this oil paint drip pan that has been turned into a learning space! Also on the to-do list!!
And this is a table cloth (vinyl) from Target that has been coated with polyurethane and made into a rug!! Yes! A HUGE $4.00 rug!!!
And what about these GREAT MINT Wellies?! This is the IT color for SPRING!!!
And my last project for weekend? This darling wreath!!! I will blog about the results on Monday!!!
And this is the greatest thing ever! Look at this list of great foods!!!

We just started this Bible Study on Monday and I LOVE IT!!! It is a definite YES!!
And last but not least.....some new happies for Paisley!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!



HAPPY NEW YEAR! Yes I know that it is January 12 2012. I am just a little behind. Two kids under my feet make me slower at everything but I wouldn't change it for the world!!!

As much as I hate undecorating after Christmas, I also love the start of a New Year and all the things that come with that, such as organizing and cleaning and setting new goals for the year. What are your goals? I would love to hear!

Mine are the following:

1) unplug from the computer/iPhone/iPad etc. and actually communicate face to face!
2) send more cards and happies to people who need them...
3) plant a vegetable garden
4) craft more! Dont you just love Pinterest?! It's like fantasy football for girls. It's amazing what I am capable of making!
5) Read Gods word more and more and more. I have recently started a Beth Moore Bible Study entitled "James" and I had no idea how deep we would be going! I just love Beth Moore.
6) Quit cleaning so much and just play with my babies.
7) Keep my word and don't overcommit.
8) Be healthy and not worry so much about being skinny.
9) Run 3-4 times a week.
10) NO MORE COKE ZEROS! Two weeks out and not a one! So proud of myself!!!!!

Can't wait to hear yours!!!
Xoxo-

MORE CHRISTMAS 2011!

These are some of my favorite shots of Christmas this year. We went to visit my grandmother who will be 89 in a few weeks in the nursing home. This woman is a prayer warrior and gave birth to 7 children. That always blows my mind. I can't take care of 2 kids. Ha! Anyway, Paisley always enjoys the nursing home and the patients love to come by and visit. She thinks it is so fun to push my Grandmother in her wheel chair. Hilarious.

We took them candy canes to pass out and little bags of sugar free candy. Paisley loved that part. Anything dealing with candy makes her happy. And Griffin had a great time chasing 2 balloons as fast as he could. They are so precious!

One night, we all went up to Canton to look at the square and see the Christmas lights. If any of you have ever seen A Time To Kill, this is where the movie was shot. At Christmas, they turn there town square into a village of lights. This Christmas Tree was my favorite part! We took lots of family photos here!
One of me and my sister, Rana. I love her so much and I am so proud of her. She is truly a selfless person who does so much for others. I am so grateful to have a sister.

Rana and her husband Tim.

We all decided to ride the train. Our driver was crazy. I think he was issued a license that day!
\
Another one of me and Stephen. We never take pictures and we had lots this year! Yay!

Paisley was over this. She was ready to ride the carousel!

Playing around with editing...


I hope you all had a wonderful Christmas!
XOXO-
