S&G

Sorry to be such a phantom blogger. No, I'm not actually sorry. I'v been busy and I don't have to make excuses.

This video makes me feel good. I was lucky enough to see them in concert on, quite likely, this very tour. It's not enough to say that I loved it.

WHAT! This video is no longer available! Darn. I added another lovely one below it.

Photo Shoot

Our family photo shoot turned out awesome. Check it out here. The second one and the last one are my favorites.

My corner

There's a corner in my house that needs something. I thought maybe a small corner desk would be a good idea. This would be perfect------>

<------And a folding chair like this. With a cute cushion on the seat?

And a few of these cute desk organizer baskets for sorting mail-------->

<----------And this cute waste basket

The only problem is that the desk is out of stock! Anyone know where I can get a small corner desk?

Change it up

I want this hair please:

Happy New Year

Our holiday break has been fantastic! We've both enjoyed over a week of time off from work. We were also fortunate to be able to spend time with both our families on Christmas Day. After Christmas, we spent our free time doing a little (painting) work on our house (which we love by the way). My first priority was obviously the green bedroom. I'll post pics of Brooks' priority room in a few days. For now, I'm way too excited to show you the progress of the green bedroom. Thanks to my MIL for the awesome new bed spread! I have lots of ideas for curtains, and other wall decor but for now, what do you think?
I'm in love . . .

Must Have

Remember my green room? Wouldn't this white vase with green fuzzy things look great in it?
I mean, ya, the TV would be nice too.

Fannie May Candies?

A package was left on our porch from Fannie May Candies. My first thought..."Is this the same Fannie May that lent money too loosely and started our economic implosion?"

Yep. Fannie May sent us a box of chocolates. I wonder how many people they sent chocolates to and how much money that adds up to be. Are they trying to get me to like them so I won't blame them for inadvertently ruining our economy?

the tree

I made ornaments for my our tree! Here is my best attempt at getting photos. The paper ornament came from here and the other ornament is actually a pin cushion!

12 Days Giveaway

Hey... it's the 12 Days of Christmas Giveaway at Design Mom. I won a giveaway there once. It was awesome. So go enter, and don't be intimidated by the number of entries... woot!

HAH!

Thing's like this make's me so happiness!

green room please!

I want to do our bedroom green! I love green if you didn't know. This photo will be my primary inspiration (thanks Molly). I can't wait! To start, I'll need a bed spread, pillows, curtains, paint, and a rug. Ohhhhhhh thats a pretty heafty start. Darn! I think I'll recover some throw pillows that I already have. I'll also paint something greenish onto my lamp shades. YAY!

Giveaway Day

Did you hear? It's Giveaway Day over at Sew Mama Sew. Our blog is hosting a giveaway (along with a billion others) but I'd have to say we're definitely giving away one of the best prizes. So check it out.

Black Friday

I hate Black Friday. I'm always so disgusted with the news clips of people racing through doors to get to the good deals. Of course they only show the really extreme videos, but still. Until this year I had never ventured out at 3:00 a.m. to get a good deal. What changed me you ask? We needed a washer and dryer badly! We took advantage of the incredible deal going on at Sears. We were home by 6:00 a.m.

fourth

I feel like I have to do the fourth folder tag since all my sisters did it

Wanna know what's so great about this picture? It's MY piano and it has been living at Molly's house since before we moved to Georgia. Well, since WE ARE CLOSING ON OUR NEW HOUSE ON MONDAY, I'm getting my piano back just in time for Christmas! Can't wait!

update: the fourth folder tag is where you go to your fourth photo/picture folder and
post the fourth picture...or however you want to do it really.

Our family is finally growing! It's a pretty big commitment and one that we finally decided to move forward with. Our lives will never be the same.

I'm dying over the new Mac commercials that make fun of the PC ad campaign!
