The LOML and I are still on the “Always Hungry” diet. We are proud to announce that he has lost over 30 pounds and I’ve lost 20 pounds give or take a little depending on the day. With all the different diets I have attempted I’ve learned a couple of things about myself. […]

MASTER CLOSET REVEAL ~ Organized, Clean, & Beautiful!
I’m so excited to show you our new master closet. But before I do, a little reminiscing. Here’s the before. Very disorganized and cluttered. I hated walking into it every day. After we emptied out all the stuff and took down the wire shelving, we filled in all the holes with spackling, sanded forever, scrubbed […]
CLOSET RENOVATION ~ Take Three ~ the shoes
We recently had company stay at our home. Do you know what that means for me? In my crazy world, I put the pressure of completing any projects that are unfinished around the house before they come. Why do I do that? I know it’s crazy but the positive is, the projects get done!! Company […]
INSPIRATION PINSPIRATION #30 ~ The beautiful colors of fall
It’s been a little chilly in NC the past week and I’m lovin’ it! I’m trying to get motivated to get out the cold weather clothes and pack away the summer stuff. HOPEFULLY, we’ll finish the master closet this weekend, then I can organize all the clothes. It’s hard for me to get motivated when […]

Our house is in full swing now that everyone is in school. I love summer break where we spend family time but I also love getting back into a regular schedule and working on our to-do list. To recap, we’ve been working on our master bedroom closet. It was just a wire shelving mess […]
AN OLD DRESSER ~ made new…kinda!
Our home is always in a kind of upheaval. People moving out, moving in, growing up. When Son #1 grew out of his crib 25 years ago (OMG!), we moved him into a big boy bed. We were afraid of him falling out of bed in the middle of the night so we found a […]
THE NORTH CAROLINA ZOO
Today was a perfect day….balmy 88 degrees, sunny with a slight cool breeze. A beautiful day to stroll through the zoo and visit all the sweet animals with my daughters. We left our house at about 9:00 am, drove west for about an hour and arrived at the park where usually we are trampled […]
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ~ Twenty seven years…NO WAY!
Yesterday was my oldest son’s 27th birthday. WOW!!!! It feels just like yesterday, the LOML and I were bringing a tiny beautiful newborn baby boy wearing a little white jumper and a pink and blue striped beany on his jet black hair covered head into our home. I remember every sound, smell, and sweet […]
