Easter and blog anniversary

Can you believe it's been a little over a year since I started this blog? Frankly, I had hoped for more views and followers by this time but I guess that will happen in time. I've enjoyed the last year, writing all posts, seeing some comments and will continue to post some more ! I was even lucky enough to do a guest post on My 30 Spot , which was awesome ! So here's a big thank you to all that read this blog and support it ! Thanks again guys !

Now onto to Easter. Ever since I was little I've loved Easter. Probably because we'd (my sisters and I) would wake up Easter morning and we had huge baskets filled with toys and candy from our parents ! Despite this awesomeness, I also did love the time we spent with our family. Later in life, I really learned the true meaning that surrounds Easter and it made this day even better then when I was younger. I am hosting this year and I thought it would be fun to look up some decorative inspirations. Here are some fancies I found. Enjoy !

There is nothing I don't love about this, the colors, patterns and textures !

cute fold

cute napkin print !

I could do this ! And I am thinking I just may

Happy Hump Day everyone !

A room fit for a beatiful baby boy....

I wrote this post about a week before I had our son. I never posted it to my blog but wanted to share. It's almost been a month since baby B's arrival. Things are still a bit upside down over here, but boy are we in love !!! It took a bit but it has all finally come together, I have some more final touches but not too much to go. This is the most modern room in our home, even with it's vintage touches. It took me a while to figure exactly which direction I wanted to go with in regards to decorating. Bedding was hard because I literally hated everything. I thought I found something on ETSY but once we found out it was a boy, I wanted something a little more boyish. The one thing that I can say always remained constant regardless of the sex of the baby or style of the room, was the Jenny Lind crib. It's my favorite. Once I figured out what colorings I wanted for the room, I knew the black was the right choice. So here is the breakdown of...

Family

I began to write a posting on July 17, before we knew what God had planned for our sweet Kim.... Kim was taken home that evening to heaven. My entire family is in shock. As I am writing this, tears are running down my face.... Please sweet Jesus watch over Kim, she is safe now with you and is in no pain. Please watch over our family, heal our hearts as we keep Kim alive within ourselves.: "I don't have a very large extended family. Some may think it is, but in reality, it's truly not. I have a few aunts, a few uncles and a few cousins. Most live in different states and many times, communication is sparse. But we are all bonded, in an unspoken way. When one of us is in need, we all speak up and rally. My cousin Kim lives in North Carolina. I have not seen her in "real life" in many years. Maybe the last time was my wedding ? ! But we keep up on each others lives via Facebook. When she recently visited my mom, I was able to see her via Facetime.... Love techno...

Lipstick messages

Yesterday was my birthday. Nothing fabulous. At this point of my age, it's just another year older. Nothing monumental, not a new decade, nothing to go crazy about.... But it got me thinking about when my sisters and I were younger, (and anyone else who may have lived here from time to time) my mom would write lipstick messages on our bathroom mirror. Most of the times it would say "Happy Birthday" to us. And if I was having a terrible week , it would be something encouraging like "I love you, have a great day." Well, I definitely miss my lipstick messages. I wish when they were written, we had Facebook or Instagram. What a cool thing to have captured. Here is a picture of what one may have looked like, not ours, but similar.
