Cent-sational

While I was blog surfing I ran across this DIY starburst mirror.

This is one of the best ones I have seen. The how-to can be found at Centsational Girl.

Watch out Home Depot....Im about to start my paint stick collection!!

Two Little Monkeys

After a couple days of technical difficulties...

This past weekend we went up to Charlotte to visit my sister, her husband and their two cute little boys. We got up there extra early on Friday so we could pick them up from school and take them to do something fun without Mom & Dad.... and to score us extra cool points. They were pumped when we told them we were going to Monkey Joes.

This place is filled with blow up Jumpies, and they loved it!

Here they were begging Uncle Wesley for some money to play basketball....how could he resist?

Before bedtime we got to see them do a little Wii Dance.

Saturday we got to watch Brecken's soccer game.

After that Krissie and I took them to Discovery Kids for the afternoon. This place was awesome, we used her camera so I have no cute pics to share. (krissie you were supposed to send them....remember?)

We also squeezed in a little easter egg hunt in there too.

One last cheese from our sweet little nephews

REAL HOUSES OF ATLANTA

Isnt this house just GORGEOUS? I mean the beautiful tangerine color with the bold blue door. It all just seems to be perfect for the architecture. This house is on W. Wesley Road.

APRIL FOOLS!!!!

Have a fun April Fools Day!

By the way this house is not photoshoped; this is real!

Double Dare You

Today I am going to DARE you to do something. I am not really sure how this popped in my head but occasionally I am going to throw out a DARE and I hope you will participate and try it. Please let me know by commenting if you tried it, or what you did, or if you were a WIMP! Just Kidding! These will not be hard just something fun and rewarding.

TODAYS DARE:

Text someone you love (spouse, boyfriend, parents...) a message telling them how much they mean to you. It can be a simple "I LOVE YOU" or something more detailed. Either way take a second of your time to text your loved one a sweet reminder. (NOTE: no Facebook messages allowed!)

One Year

Today marks a year of blogging!

I have had so much fun sharing house projects, travels, recipes, work, family, friends, photos, and everything else in-between with you. I tell people it is like writing an open diary of everything I like and do. Thanks for stopping by to catch up with the Hills. I love to know who is reading so click follow on the sidebar and become a follower....I promise no daily spam emails coming from this girl...i get enough of those already and I am sure you do too.

Fun Fabrics

Last week when I hit up Lewis & Sheron I found this fun little fabric in so many great color schemes; I just had to share. I thought some of them would be perfect for a nursery

or little girls room.

It is called Conservatory and comes in 6 color sets.
