Yard Sale Finds

Went to some yard sales this morning with Rebekah. We had a nice time, the weather was good and we found a few things.....I love these jars we bought, they make really neat vases!



I also found this old kitchen scale....I thought it had a cool look to it and might be a neat decoration in my kitchen...and it really works!


I finally put this pedestal table in my bedroom.....I bought it a while back from my sister (she found another one at a previous yard sale.) I was planning to paint it either black or maybe a weathered white wash, but it looks pretty good just like it is..........

I'll see how I like it for a while!

Dried Hydrangeas

I hate to see my hydrangeas on their way out, but once they turn green, it's the perfect time to try to dry them. I sometimes keep a dried arrangement for a year or so. Check these out.....


Once the water evaporates they will dry just like they are!

Home Sweet Home!

We are back from our trip to Seaside and Santa Rosa Beach. We had a great time, it is such a cool place. I really love it there. We had some great days at the beach and we rejoiced leaving and knowing that there is no oil gushing in the gulf right now!




The kids were great....they love the beach life as much as us.........











We look forward to going back. I missed my sweet little Macy so much....next time we may have to take her with us!

One More Day!

Just one more day and we are off to Seaside!


We can't wait, it's one of my favorite places and I'm so excited about being able to stay in this lovely little town. It's such a sweet place!



We hope that the water will be as beautiful as it always has been, they have the best beaches....white sands and crystal blue water.......I'll let you know!
