Etsy Finds

Ok, so I told you that I had been purchasing some great things from Etsy lately. Well here they are. I got this extremely cute plate with our initial, last name and the year we were married from The Preppy Polka Dot. I love this plate, I can' t help but look at it everytime I go into my kitchen.She has a lot of colors to chose from and it was only $18! I could not believe how inexpensive they were.

I also had this blank space above my pantry door that I wanted to hang a nice, decorative plate, but I have not been able to find one that I like. So I hung this chabby chic sign that I purchased from Haleys Cottage. I might move it, but it's really cute for now!I just purchased these three shelf sitters for my plant shelves yesterday, so they aren't here yet, but this is what they look like. I purchased these from gratefultulips. This is the picture on the website, so as soon as I get mine and put them up I will post those as well.Well that's all that I have for now. Have a great day!

MIA

So I have not been keeping up with my blog lately, shame on me! Nothing really too exciting going on. I have been reading the other blogs though. I have just been working and taking a summer class at the community college. I have also been purchasing some cute stuff from Etsy so I will take pictures and post them. I will try to post at least once a week from now on, hopefully I can at least maintain that.

Mini Road Trip

On Saturday my sister, Tahlia, my niece, Ava and I took a mini road trip to Ocala to see my sister's mother-in-law. They live on a small horse farm and it is so beautiful up there. Sometimes I wish that I could just stay. Here are some pictures from our car ride.

She is such a character!

Introductions

Nothing really to write about today. Just work and that's not really that fun, just time consuming.

I did want to introduce my baby boy, Tanner though. He is a 2 1/5 year old black lab mix. When we adopted him, he was labeled as the oops puppy. His mom got out of the house and came back pregnant. So they aren't too sure what his dad is, but we love him anyway. When he was a puppy I would hold him in my lap alot of the time, well he still thinks he can sit in my lap and he weighs 90lbs! Haha! I don't know what we would do without him, he is our first baby and we hope to have him around for a long time!

Weekend Fun

So this weekend was pretty busy. We had our garage sale on Saturday, made most of our sales during the first 3 hours and then it started to rain, even though it was not supposed to, but that is Florida's weather for you. Still it was a lot of fun to hang out with my mom, sister and niece. We took the rest of our stuff to Goodwill and looked around the store for a while. I found these great frames for only $.59 each! More to come on the little project that I found at Bless Our Nest (not sure how to do the link yet).

On Sunday my sister, niece and I went to Michaels to get the rest of the accessories I would need to do my project. So here it is. I had this space in my guest bathroom that needed a little something.

So I painted the frames a bright white, inserted crinkled paper and added flowers. This is what came about.

I LOVE it! They are exactly what I wanted and fits the space perfectly. I also did one in my master bath, a little different though.

Other than that, that's pretty much my weekend. The hubby had to work all weekend so I just relaxed the rest of the time. Hope everyone had a great weekend!

TGIF

So glad it is Friday! My mom, sister and I are having a garage sale on Saturday so that should be lots of fun. I LOVE getting rid of stuff that I don't use anymore to make room for more stuff! I will be sure to post pictures of our (hopefully) eventful day. Then on Sunday I have to clean my house. Always fun, right? Nothing too exciting but at least it's something.

I am still getting the hang of blogging, not a whole lot to write about right now but hopefully it will start to pick up. I like reading other blogs and getting ideas on fun stuff.

Well I hope everyone has a great weekend! It is supposed to be nice here on the Treasure Coast in Florida, let's hope it stays that way for the weekend!

New to the Blog World

So I finally started a blog. I am new to this so please be patient with me. I enjoyed reading so many other blogs and thought it would be fun to start one myself.
