Tick Tock a Pretty Clock

Hi friends...I'm back! 
Missed you guys! The last week and a half has been very draining with both my girls getting sick! Victoria had the flu and Mackenzie had a bad case of bronchitis, really knocking them for a loop.Thankfully my son managed to stay healthy! All is well again thank the Lord! 
 Look at this pretty metal clock I found in Hobby Lobby a few weeks ago. I love the chippy, rusty look it has, along with it's aged face(now this is a face I like to see aged LOL)!!

 A pretty new addition to my bedside table.

Thanks so much for stopping by! Now it's time for me to go and play catch up and see what I've missed...have a great week!

Just a Lil Something

 The wall over Mackenzie's bed has been bugging me since we finished her room. The plaque over her bed just wasn't enough...it still needed a lil something!
Hobby Lobby to the rescue! I picked up this frame and a small initial. The frame was white and I spray painted it pumpkin orange and the gold initial got a coat of black. All these colors are in her bedding.

 Here's a before...

 After...

Much better:)

Hope your all having a great week!

French Ticking

 Happy Monday Friends!!
Has anyone seen the new french ticking curtains from Country Curtains...LOVE them!! They come in 4 different colors. I went with the green stripe for my living room but I love them so much I bought them for my dining room too in the red stripe. Have to wait a few weeks on those, they have to custom make them for me due to the long length that I need.

 Your only getting little peeks today...there's lots of changes going on in here. This is the room in my house that always stresses me out!

The curtains alone made a big difference. I love how they lightened up the space.

Thanks so much for stopping by today, I love our visits!

The Doll's Tea Party at my kids school was a huge success YAY!! But I was a bad blogger and didn't have time to take any pictures:(

Hopefully my oldest did so I can show you.

Have a great week!

Taking a week off to host a Tea Party!

I'm taking the next week off...but before I get into that, I wanted to show you how pretty my tulips still look one week later. I wish I could make them last just like this.

Next Saturday my kids school is having a fundraiser that I'm in charge of. This is my second year running it. It's called a Doll's Tea Party. Every year we pick a different "location" to have it. Last year it fell on St. Patty's Day so the theme was a Doll's Tea Party in Ireland. In the past when others ran it they did Hawaii, Paris, & China. This year I decided to keep it local and do a day in 

The Big Apple!

It takes months of planning. There's the invitations, decorations, food for both the kids and a cafe for the adults, activities, vendors, even a raffle table with beautiful prizes like American Girl Doll's and accessories. It's a lot of fun...I love doing it!

It's going to be a crazy week getting all the last minute things done, so I won't be posting this week...but I'll definitely need my fix of you guys so I'll be checking in when I have a chance:)

Have a great week!
