Wedding – The Kids

Standard

This slideshow requires JavaScript.

The kids were great!! Olivia is Matthew’s niece (his brother, Jonathon and Kayla’s daughter) and she did such a good job carrying her sunflower down the aisle.  Owen & Belle are Amie’s niece and nephew (Jason & Tara’s children).  Owen did such a good job driving his sister down the aisle! She would have ridden in that tractor all day long, she just loved it!

Beautiful Bride!!

Bride Bride 2 Bride 3 Bouquet

Amie’s wedding was August 1st and I’m just getting back to work.  It was a perfect wedding, beautiful bride, handsome groom, great food & lots of dancing!  Other than the total torrential downpour that happened right after all the wedding pics, everything went smoothly!  We have over 800 pics soooo just know that this will be a “week in pictures”.  Thanks to the Bayless family for alllll the hard work of getting the outdoors perfect (the wedding was at their house) and for building the dancefloor and the beautiful alter/platform – a big thank you to my sister, my brother, Sally and my besties Sherry & Robin for all their hard work of helping me pull it all together – you guys are the BEST!!

Ta Daaaaaa . . . .

Wooowwwwww – soooo cooollllllllllllll 😉  The outside is done, now I just need to paint it and we will still need to pour concrete around the perimeter of house where we dug it up for the foundation wall.  I have “rough” inspections today – then it will be insulation and sheetrock!

A Little Shopping – Bathroom

Standard

Bathroom StuffSo things are coming together with my addition.  I have inspections on Wednesday for rough plumbing, rough electrical and rough framing.  As long as that all goes well, insulation will be next then sheetrock!  I thought I’d share a few of my decorating ideas for my master bath.  I found this cute little bath rug and those handle/knob things from Home Goods.  The handle/knob things are actually curtain tiebacks, I’m hoping to be able to use them as door knobs to pull my pocket door between my bathroom and my closet.  The piece of wood looking stuff is actually tile – this will be my flooring for the entire bath/closet and the little rectangle tiles are trim that will go along with subway tile in my shower.  The grommet curtains will flank by claw foot tub!! Can’t wait to get started on the fun stuff!

Camera FUN!

Standard

CameraAre you old enough to remember “Polaroids” – I loveeee this camera!  It’s sooo FUN!  Ok, so it’s a tad expensive but I did get it on sale and I thought it would be fun to have at the farmhouse.  We’re also going to use it for the wedding, kind of as a “guest book”.  Owen thought it was the coolest thing ever – you should have seen his eyes pop out of his head when the picture started coming out of the top of the camera, LOL.  The best place to buy the film is on amazon and the pics are business card size 2×3.
