Fabric update.

So...after searching HIGH and LOW for months, I have finally decided on my fabric choices for the den and breakfast room. Of course, all of this will have to be implemented in stages because you know...I still haven't found that money tree. But, I am just so excited to be making progress.  I may still find a fourth fabric to tie in somehow, but these will be the main three. 

1. I'm not even sure where this is from...and it may not be the exact one I use...but something similar will cover the ottoman. 

 
2. I just ordered this fabric (Waverly cross section, also made by Lewis and Sheron but Waverly was cheaper) when fabric.com had 15% off and got 7.5 yards (enough to cover the wing back chair) for UNDER ONE HUNDRED DOLLARS.  Score!  So pumped to send this off to the reupholsterer (is that a word?).  I will need to order a bit more eventually to do pillows as well.
3.  My first love.  I kept coming back to it over and over...so this won out.  This is Robert Allen khanjali glacier (also made by Lewis and Sheron, but RA is cheaper)  It's still not cheap...so I've got to save my pennies and will definitely be buying in stages...but I am IN LOVE with this fabric and can't wait to use it.  I will use this for curtain panels in the breakfast room/den and for the recliner we will eventually purchase.  Also will use for throw pillows for couch.  SQUEEEE!!! 
First on the agenda is to get the wing back reupholstered.  Then, I'm on the hunt for an ottoman I can cover.  Love getting stuff DONE.

Happy Friday!

xoxo

To my boys {almost two months late}

MY BOYS: A whole hand.   I can’t believe it.   The past five years have gone by at lightning speed!   You two silly, crazy, sweet, handsome boys celebrated FIVE like you do all other things- with genuine excitement and happiness in your hearts.   Y’all love life to the fullest and have the best imaginations- I could sit and listen to the two of you “play and talk” to each other ALL the live long day.   Y’all rarely fight, but when you do you make up within like 12 seconds, you boys are so different, but yet so the same.   You’ve both grown up in SO many ways and sometimes I have to blink to remind myself you are still my babies (because you are and always will be) but you both still have remnants of “babyhood” that I sure hope stays around a little longer.   It’s been a complete JOY to be your mama the past five years, as much as I want to keep you this AGE FOREVER, I know it’s not possible and am excited to watch you two grow and blossom in l...

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...

2019 family Village Creek trip

Our 2019 summer family vacation was everything I could have asked for, and more!  This year, my parents and nephew joined us for the week so we had extra fun!  (and extra chaos of course, too!)  We did ALL the things, but yet also did ALL the relaxing.  We arrived on G and T's actual, bday so we started our trip with a special birthday lunch in downtown Beaufort with just the boys since Collins rode down with my mom.  We also finally experienced the drive in movie that night for Toy Story 4 and it was AWESOME!  We only had one day of cloudy weather so that was awesome!  We ventured to Bohicket Marina, Harbor Town, Harbor Island, Edisto Island, Botany Bay, our favorite sandbar AND downtown Beaufort by boat, we had a ball!   My dad got some AMAZING fireworks and we had a little show for the culdesac, so much fun!!  Mikey and I even got to sneak out one n...
