The Friday Five


1.       One of my Christmas presents that I am LOVING.  I finally got the Modalu Pippa bag and it is perfection.  I ended up going with a classic black, it is GORGEOUS….in my opinion;-)

 

 

2.        Another Christmas present that we are loving is the addition of this rug to our den.  I put our old rug in the play room so we needed a new one for the den.  I thought it was a bit gray-er when I ordered it, but I actually like it a lot next to my gray couches.  ALL the fabrics I am using in this room right now, I need to be durable and washable. Enter Dash and Albert… you can HOSE this thing off…and spills just bounce off of it.  PERFECT for this stage of our life.

 

3.        I’m finally getting around to having the last light hung in our kitchen….hopefully I’ll get some pics after that’s done.  My dad still has a few touch up items to do, but otherwise the kitchen will be complete!  This is the light I went with for over the kitchen table.  We actually bought it from a local store in Beaufort, but Shades of Light sells it too…I love it.

 

 

4.       I got some new makeup products recently that I’m digging.  I’m not a huge products person…  but you obviously have to have makeup…or at least I do! 

I have bad dark circles and this is working really well.. And it's got some good for you stuff in it.  

Loving this bronzer to help with that winter whiteness.
3. I like the finish on this powder a lot. 

 

5.       We are heading to Beaufort next weekend with a group of friends and it’s just what we need.  I love escaping down there for the weekend with NO agenda.

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...
