Baby Fever!!

Okay, I am going to admit that I have a wee bit of baby fever right now. I feel like I am being surrounded by sweet little ones and I am itching to have another one. I will have to say that it is my sweet little nieces fought :) I will have to fight it for at least 6-12 months since Jody will be graduating in May. Maybe time will fly by until then :)

What's on the mind??

WOW!! I can not believe how this summer has gone by so fast!! We leave for Disney in less than 3 weeks!! Jody is approaching his Senior year of school and that means we have to start seriously thinking about the future. Do we want to move or do we want to stay in sweet little Laurel, MS?? He has been interning at a company in Bay Springs this summer that has been pretty good but what he is doing is really not his major. I know this is really not up to me but I have been thinking alot about my future backyard lately. Do I want pine trees with lots of hills and streams with nature walks daily or would I prefer palm trees with bike rides and many beach trips. Decatur Al has many polymer related jobs and so does the mobile/pensacola area. I am kinda leaning to the idea of moving. I know I have always wanted to stay here but the idea of an adventure and exploring new places sounds really fun to me. Also a plus for moving is that we would have more family time with just us. We really do not get that alot here. I love love love spending time with my family and Jody's family but we spend so much time with them that it leaves no time for just us, our little family of 3. We have grown so close to our families that it will be hard to leave but think it will be well worth it. More to come on these thoughts this week...

Hot summer days!!

It has been oh so very hot down here in Laurel, MS. I am a summer person and love the warm sun beaming down on me but the temperature these days is just to hot to handle. Below are some pictures on whats been going on:




Conner's new love is frogs. Last week he wanted a cat and I told him we could not get a cat so now he has decided he wants a frog.


Carrots from my little garden

we decided to rearrange the living room and purchace new pillows to give some freshness and color to our space. I think we have a little more room now.

over the past couple weeks...

I have came across quite a few treasures!! I am pretty excited about these finds :) Tomorrow I will be on the hunt for a hutch and of course I will not be able to pass up a great piece of pyrex
The blue pyrex in the back was purchased by my sweet hubby!! I say he's got okay taste :) And the lettuce was actually grown by myself in my little garden. I'm pretty proud and excited about this!


pyrex pitcher... This pitcher will be great for the summer!!

Lots of items at the estate sale today!!


Bought the orange piece at an antique shop for $3!! Pretty excited about that!! The yellow square pyrex was a gift from Jody's memaw. Such a sweet lady!!


Hope everyone has a great weekend!!

Mother's Day is coming up...

Mother's day is this Sunday and Jody has asked me what I want. I have been going to quite a few Antique shops and flea markets looking for the perfect little hutch for my kitchen. I'm hoping we can find one in the next few weeks. These are some that I just adore!!
