New Guest In My Kitchen

I am a little bit aggravated with Blogger today. I went to my sister's blog to read it and noticed my blog on her followers's list, with some weird FW: title and a picture. SO - let me tell you how I blog. I blog using my phone. I actually send the pictures in an email from my phone to my blog and then I add the words in afterwards. You can actually set the settings to post immediately or to save as a draft. I think I messed around with it yesterday and told it to post the pictures I send immediately. Anyway, long story short, I hope you all saw the cute chalkboard paint project from yesterday!

I do have another project to show you today. Remember this lovely item that was a fail??



Well, I had two of these same pieces. One of them became this:



...and went on my photo wall. The other I had to figure out what to do with. I wanted to hang it length wise above my living room window but the back didn't have a hanging bracket that would let it hang that way and I wasn't about to go get one. I have another idea for that space now. So, I decided that I would use it for something else....

My kitchen!!

I got the idea of "EAT" from Thrify Decor Chick and thought I could modify just a little bit.

I wanted the contrast of the Cappucino against the white wall in my kitchen so I decided to use the white spray paint to write EAT in white letters. I was not in the mood to go get anything other than what I had, so I decided to use tape and the white spray paint I already had.

I just wrote some letters. They absolutely are not perfect, but I figured they'd be up high so they didn't have to be.




I taped them off....



Spray painted the white....




And voila!! I think it goes rather well, don't you?




I never realized how close EAT is to FAT. Ha ha!!!

It was a very good day.

I love it when God smiles upon us. I mean, He smiles upon us all the time. But sometimes, it's like sunshine, and Christmas morning, and rainbows, and babies, and awesomeness. On steroids. And I know that those times are not always permanent, so I learn to really wrap myself in His goodness, to take it all in, be happy, and just sit back and wait to see what He is going to do in my life. We have been struggling so long. I knew it was only a matter of time before things would be OK again. Where we would feel a little stability. Where we would take all of the things we learned while struggling and apply then when times are good. We have alot of great things going on in our lives right now. Some really great things. Some amazing, mindblowing, off the grid kind of great things. I wish I could share more, but for right now, let's just say that we are incredibly blessed with some great opportunities God is putting in our lives. I leave you with a gorgeous picture of our biggest bl

What is Your Skin Care Regimen?

Since turning 34 this year, I've been really trying to make sure I am taking care of my skin. I have been using Cover Girl Liquid Powder for years, but it always seemed to break my neck out. And full disclosure, my face cleaning routine consisted of using Avery's baby wipes (which actually do remove eye makeup surprisingly well). So, needless to say, my skin didn't always look its best.   So, I received some gift cards for my birthday and I decided to go ahead and spring for some better products. First thing I did was get something designed to clean my face. I ordered the Olay ProX Microdermabrasion System.     This system came with the battery-operated scrubber with both a brush and foam pad, plus every day face wash and microdermabrasion wash to be used twice a week. I have really loved using this system. The beauty is that you can really use any face wash you'd like. I will probably buy a pore-reducing wash after the tube they sent me is empty. This syst

Dancing With Dad

I have been working on a project these last couple of weeks for my previous company. Yesterday, I was working on my computer and heard roaring laughter coming from Avery's room. I walk in and found Jason and Avery dancing and singing away.   By sheer coincidence, this popped up on my Timehop today. Avery was only 1 in this picture. Boy, are these kiddos lucky to have such a great dad! It makes me heart melt.
