She's getting so big!

Today was my day to drop the kids off at Vacation Bible school! I was a bit concerned thinking Bella might have a problem with me leaving! To my surprise she could have cared less! I am so thankful she's very so Socially adaptable even with me being a stay-at-home!
Look how happy she was to leave the house!

Bella's first day of VBS!

She did just fine without her momma! Bella has her two bff's Megan & Aydyn in her class! Tomorrow they all have a dinner date together!
Here's Bella's bookmark she made :)

I got a line! U got a pole! we'll go fishing in a crawfish hole!

We ran to the cutest little market, just around the corner to get us some worms to fish with! We all caught something! My fish happened to be the biggest old grandpa fish! What a spectacular we had!

Girls weekend at the lake house or bust!

Bella and daddy are staying at home and getting special time together, mommy and five other mommies get to Spend weekend on vacation! I am hoping for a huge thunderstorm tonight just like the ones back home! And tomorrow sunny beautiful day to spend playing in the water in soaking up some sun! This is such a special place I am so blessed to have a friend who invites me on these special excursions! Enjoy the weekend! I'll be updating with lots of pictures!

The view from my suite :)  

Griffith Ilse in the works for some late night water, star gazing :) 

Quickie living room upcycle! Another CL Freebie!

A throne for the king and/or queen and/or princess! Another great day of treasure hunting! We found the biggest chair ever it actually turns into a single bed for guests to stay overnight! Now I've just gotta change out that rug ASAP!

A lil' peek!

Bella's armoire still needs lot of work, but I threw together a visual of what her stuffed animal zoo might end up similar too! She'll be a gem all right! I've got another treasure coming tonight :)

Another treasure hunt!

Look what I found :). Guess how much I paid?!?! Nothing! Wait till u see my vision!

Our Secret Resort Oasis!

Lake Anna or bust

Potting bench inspiration - DIY

Ohhhhh! I forgot to mention, also at the gardens I found my new inspiration for a potting bench :) I'm sure if ur recycling pallets would be a cheap and easy project! I'm adding it to my list! My brain is busy! Keep watching to see what I can come up with,,,,,,, herbs on top instead of the kinda cheesy flower decoration. Anywho it's late! I must turn off :)

Another hot summer day!

Even at 97 degrees,Bella and I had a great afternoon playing outdoors. We spent the afternoon at Lewis Ginter Britannical Garden! This is one of my most favorite places to take Kids! You could spend all day there or just a couple hours! One of the best perks you can bring in your own food and drink! They have double strollers available at no cost, and once you get to the water play, sandbox, and treehouse the adults get to rest while the kids burn energy! Check it out while you can still visit the butterfly interactive exhibit!

Our Doggie of the week

Quick Closet Rearange!

I spent the day with one of My girlfriends! Our task to give her old closet a makeover! We had the parts and pieces we needed it just didn't go! So here is what we started with:

After several hours, of trying out or options we endded up with a happy medeium!, Maybe someday they'll take down some more of the wall blocking a bouch of space, that's REALLY hard to get too :D
