I'm dreaming of.......

CLOSETS!!!!!!!!! BIG ONES, OPEN ONES, WALK IN ONES!

Bet you thought this was going to be some Christmas wish list huh? Nope. Just about closets. I am so wanting a bigger one, like badly. Growing up, my brother and I both had rather large walk in closets...that's what happens when your dad is the house builder=) It was great. Then...comes college. And we all know what kind of closets dorm rooms have...yeah, not so great. I would typically switch out my summer/winter clothes to save room. I had a dorm room closet for two years, then moved in to the sorority house...those weren't actually that bad. They were walk in, you just had to share it with another person. Then, moved to our own house senior year....old houses in our "college neighborhood" areas = SMALL closets. And ever freaking since, I have had small closets. Our house now is OLD, like built in the 30's old. It has three TINY bedroom closets + a pantry. Thank goodness for a wonderful father who completely re-did our kitchen and made the pantry twice the size...at least that provides me tons of storage for food, coolers, vacuums, brooms, toilet paper, paper towels, etc. It really is very big and a saving grace. I have to store all my linens and extra towels in dressers in my house, yeah...cause there is NO space in closets. Mikey's closet is in the guest bedroom, I got the one in ours...even though they are the same size. The third bedroom has the smallest closet and I use it for all of my jackets. I just want to be able to SEE everything in my closet and not have to cram stuff in. Sigh, maybe one day........ I am not the type of person to have an abundance of clothes either, i buy, wear and get rid of quickly (giving away to goodwill or selling in second hand stores)... seriously my friends are always amazed at how little amount of clothes I actually have in my closet at a time. Quality over quantity right!?!

Anyways, enough about that...these are some of the closets I would GLADLY take!

The color coordination in this one makes my heart pitter patter.
So serene.
I need those cubes for my shoes!
Ahhhh.

Takeover Tuesday

Surprise Caro, guess who hacked into your blog! I know what you are saying to yourself...I can’t believe it’s taken this long for me to mess with you on here. For those of you who haven’t figured it out yet, this obviously is not your sweet Caroline, this is her wonderful, sarcastic, fun loving, baby daddy (or is it babies’ daddy now?), also known as her husband. (Caro at her finest, throwing me a great 25th birthday celebration) Where do I begin…. I guess we can talk about how this marital bliss came to be before we talk about the author of this blog and how amazing she. Caroline has been the love of my life for as long as I can remember, we were actually first grade boyfriend and girlfriend if you can believe it. After first grade, there was the great divide, as both of us went to different schools the following year. Finally, after 10 agonizing, lonely years we were reunited at a house party our senior year in high school. I, naturally, had always kept an eye on her throughou...

What's in a name?

I tell ya, the name game is HARD. Really hard. I never thought that I'd be 27 years old and pregnant and not know what I wanted to name my child. I *think* we have come up with the one , but I'm not quite ready to put it out for the world to see...you know, don't want to many people rushing to get monogrammed bubbles. Ha! Jokes! Anyways...so I can look back and remember what all we went thru to come up with a name in 20 years I am going to lay it all out there. I'll start with saying I want a family name to be somewhere in my children's names. It doesn't have to be a first name, but some name in the child's name I want to be from a family member/family. We'll start with boys names, because they got taken off the table when we found out it was a GIRL..this will be short. Mikey's middle name is Thomas...his grandfather's name is Thomas. So...we always said Thomas would be in our son's name. I always thought it would be cool to do a Tho...

My Pinterest inspired master bedroom makeover part one.

The BEFORE pictures. I've been itching to re-do my master bedroom for quite some time now. I am one of those people that likes to re decorate quite often...unfortunately for my bank account. Mikey's mom bought him a full queen sized bedroom suite when he graduated college, which was wonderful. It is very nice furniture and has served us well. But, I am SOOO sick of all the dark matchy-matchy look it brings. I will use this furniture again in a guest bedroom one day...but for now, it's time to retire it from my master. All of my bedding and rug I had previously...I've now had this zebra/brown/green theme for almost 4 years...so over it! Fortunately for us...my brother and SIL got a new bed...so what do we get?? Their old KING size bed!! Woohoo. I do NOT like for people to touch me when I sleep, I need my space...I've been wanting a king for so long. Even though our room isn't the biggest the king is working out okay...we aren't going to be in this h...
