Hey dudes hey!

Well well well,

What do we have here?

Is this a blog post?

Man, it's been so long I almost forgot how to even post these suckers!

I figured a good first-post-back-in-a-decade would be a little major recap,

so buckle up! Lot's of cell phone pics coming your way!

Okay, so let's see. Since last we chatted...

My sweet Ohnie got surgery (and has since recovered)

My ladies threw us a little couple's shower...

I spent some time on wedding related projects

Went on a FABULOUS Bachelorette weekend in NASHVILLE!

Celebrated my (now) sister-in-law's High School Graduation :)

Got ourselves ready for the big day...

GOT MARRIED!!!

Worked on some cute client orders

Made a little father's day cake for Todd's mowing obsessed dad.

Did my best to send Thank Yous to those 

that were helping me the most in those final pre-nuptial hours.

Dyed my hair...

Got my 'Merica on.

Celebrated my godson's 3 birthday - golf style 

Did a few upgrades to the backyard

Survived Country Thunder 2013

Didn't pee my pants when my husband drove off in his new motorcycle...

and just this weekend, got to SHOWER my bestie 

with love at her very first bridal shower.

So much fun :)

So, I guess thats a lot, but it has been like 6 months...

What have you guys been up to?

I'm back!

Whats up, blog world!?

So life has been a bit busy! 

Wedding planning + wedding season

has gotten me a little over my head!

I do love blogging and the inspiration it provides me

but have been a bit overwhelmed as of late.

I'm making a (public) promise to post on the daily

and it all starts today!

How about we just catch up on what I've been up to since we last touched base...

Started some plans on the upstairs bathroom

Made some St. Patty's treats for my kids at Tiger Den

...we also decorated easter eggs 

(yes it's been so long TWO holidays have gone by)

Had my patience tested with our 2 naughty dogs

Got our wedding invitations out

(I'll do a more detailed post about those soon)

...and have been receiving some RSVPS!!

I even got to celebrate Flynn Thomas' 1st birthday :)

Whew! That was quite a bit!

Promise to be back tomorrow with more.

Hope you're well!

Poppy goes the world

Color crush alert: Poppy!

In the kitchen, we have these tractor seat bar stools that are barn door red.

Todd was serious about keeping them the chippy true to life color they are, so it 

forced me to add red to the kitchen's color scheme...

I'm not sure if it's because of the success of the kitchen, but all of a sudden I'm loving on the reds!

More specifically the orangey red I'm now adding into my bathroom - POPPY.

Ugh, does it get any better? I think not.

What colors have you been crushing on?

Black Velvet

If any of you follow me on Pinterest (and let's be real, you should)

You may have noticed my recent bathroom inspiration pictures.

Unfortunately (For Todd) the kitchen is becoming such a success that I officially have a 

fire under me to finish other projects I'm not quite in love with.

Our bathroom being one of them.

I'm currently thinking black walls.  What do you think?

I'm in love. It's dark, but modern.

Moody, but still fab.

Would you dare? Should I?

Bourbon & Boots

Hey, Ya'll.

How was the weekend?

We had a good one, finished up some kitchen things (not complete - but almost!)

had a couple friends come in Saturday night & visited our great friend's brand new baby

on Sunday. What a peanut. 

I'm not sure when or how, but somewhere in all of that I ended up at this website:

Bourbon & Boots

Gifts, food, clothes, art, all with some serious southern pride.

This site has it all. 

I'm in love. You must go take a look.

Whats your favorite?

Kitchen Teaser

Home stretch here, folks. 

We've just got a few small details to complete and then were 

DONE WITH THE KITCHEN!

A little over two weeks? I'd say thats not too bad for a facelift :)

Here's some celly snaps to hold you over.

Hopefully back next week with some legit shots.

Have a great weekend!
