I'm gonna throw a party for my car.


It made it! I never thought it would survive to see the day.

This spinach and feta salad is delicious.

Just taking a break from cleaning up around this pig-sty we call a home to post on our poor little neglected blog. We're having James and Gabby (check out her photography, she's awesome - http://www.gabbydaltonphotography.blogspot.com/) over tomorrow night for dinner and a rousing game of Settlers of Catan, our new board game obsession. We've even been accused of only having people over so that we can play the game... which could have some truth to it, considering the game is only for 3-4 players, but whatever.



We got Boo one of those new plush toys with no stuffing in them. It's a little skunk, and we call it his Stinky. I don't know if I can ever do it justice, to try to describe in words, just how much he loves this thing. I mean, when we first gave it to him, he ran around the house and shook it like a ragdoll for at least an hour. Then, when he was totally exhausted and panting, he discovered it had a squeaker. You would have thought he died and went to doggie heaven. It's been bliss ever since... except for at night, when Stinky has to stay outside our bedroom so Kevin and I can get some sleep.



We're also one step closer to getting our bathrooms renovated. We've got one more contractor coming on Tuesday to give an estimate, and then we'll make our decision and get the work started. I cannot wait to take a shower in the morning and actually feel like I'm in this decade!

All right, back to cleaning... little tumbleweeds of dog hair are blowing across the floor... thank you, Lord, for the Swiffer.

Home sweet home!

I am so happy that we made it home from Nashville this year without a car wreck to end our trip! Yay! Praise the Lord!



I've decided I want a white upright piano. I miss playing around on it and having a house filled with pretty music. There are multiple occasions coming up for someone to give one to me (2-year anniversary, birthday, Columbus Day, etc). It doesn't have to be new or anything fancy, just in working condition (needing paint or a tune up is okay).




Anyone.... anyone??
