Thin Ice

On Sunday, I visited Jeffery's Antiques.

I ran across a pair of old ice skates.

I thought they would be perfect for my front door this Winter.

If Winter ever comes?

Of course, Pinterest gave me plenty ideas of what to do with my skates.
I like that skates are Wintery without being Christmas.

Never knew what to replace my Christmas wreath with until now.

Darling.

I'll show you what I come up with.

Lovin' It,

My Kitchen Saga

Last night while trying to sleep...

{sleep escapes me these days}

I thought about relocating my laundry room which would expand my sink wall

and add lots of windows to my present kitchen.

I love this look.

I love light & windows.

I found all these great pictures on Pinterest

for the Mr. to see (when he is done with his Arial Yoga class).

He is a visual kinda guy.

Relocating my laundry room would give me a wall of windows.

How sweet would that be?

How costly would that be?

No upper cabinets...just windows.

Always loved this kitchen.
Whoa!
The green plants may sell the MR on my new idea.
He is very green.
(When I 1st met him at a Toga party, he had a halo of rooted ivy on his head.
Immediately after the party, he placed it back into the glass with all the other ivy rootings.)
SEE, my idea may stand a chance :)

Love the windows and light.

A kitchen wrapped in windows.

I am glad I haven't made any kitchen decisions yet.

TIME is allowing me to really think about ALL the possibilities of my kitchen.

Now... to find where I can put my laundry room

haha

Do I really need one on my main level?

I would rather have windows.

PLEASE share your thoughts with me.

I need opinions.

Blessed By Bloggin'

OK...

I understand that God moves in mysterious ways.

I love that He used a blog to talk to me today.

He is amazing!

I needed this more than you know.

Party Time

I would like to have a party.

In this house...

Or build this house to have a party in.

(Had to blow the dust of this image...I have held on to it in case a builder feels generous)

It is the home I would build.

I would wear this exact dress...

and serve macaroons & champagne.

And these beautiful cupcakes.

Instead...

I am heading to my Beginners Yoga class.

Lovin' It,

Lisa

Tasty Treats

Who wouldn't love dining in this room?

With the doors open wide...

Simply delicious!

Banquettes rock!
Banquettes with killer French chairs...
Rock EVEN more!

I love Joni's dining room from Cote De Texas.

The large checked slipcover chairs are sweet.

Which was your fav?

Lovin' It,

Zero Calories

Just eating up Landry in this picture!

Yum! Yum!

While at the lakehouse this weekend,

his daddy carved a cowboy boot out of a tree stump.

If you look closely... Landry's right fingers are crossed...

his mommy grew up doing the EXACT same thing! and still does!

Amazing DNA!

Eatin' Him Up,
