July 4th

We had such a great time on a July 4th.  Went to a bbq at a local park ate some hotdogs, watched some fireworks.  Good Times!




This boy continues to grow so quickly.  Ya’ll is it too soon to be talking about being an empty nester?  Just like that, he’ll be graduating high School and starting his own life.  Hopefully not too far from his mother though.  I love him!

Oh and before I go, here’s a few pictures of my new kitten, Piper.  I love her!

Summer Vacation

yes!  A whole week to do absolutely nothing!  No really we don’t have anything penciled in that we have to go and do this week so I am thrilled!  I think we might go see Incredibles 2 today and head to the pool.  The management company of our apartment complex is having a cookout today with hotdogs so we’ll hang around for that too.  Looking forward to a slow pace week.
Recently my doctor prescribed Vitamin D pills so I’m hoping being out in the sun will bring my levels back to where they need to be.  :)

Here’s a pic of my son this morning.  Vacay Day 1


Making himself a bowl of cereal.  He did not want his mommas scrambled eggs.  I put a little chia seeds in it to give it an extra boost.

Some things that have been keeping me busy.  I recently picked up an old hobby that I used to enjoy..reading a good book.  I just finished this book, Fine Things by Danielle Steele.  It’s amazing how books can transport you to different places and stir up some emotions.  Great book!



This was my Diy project.



I painted the faux fireplace with chalk paint.  I love it!  It looks somewhat vintage and now I might keep it a little longer.  It was a dark wood color but felt like I am moving toward shabby chic vibes so tried this out (chalk paint) and love it!


And that’s about it for now!  I’ll post more later but need to get up off the couch and start my day.
