Morning Coffee and a Walk in the Garden

 
On my days off I love nothing more than to wake up, brew some cinnamon coffee, walk out my door and see my garden! (I think I have turned into my mother...which is not a bad thing by any means) I love to watch the progress of blooming flowers, growing bulbs and tasty vegetables! 

Best coffee EVER

Memorial Weekend~ Roadtrippin' and Camping





This past weekend we celebrated our country and thought about the sacrifice our solider's make for us! We spent the weekend camping on the Colorado River! We did much BBQing, boating, game playing, hiking, wake-boarding and had some wonderful family time!

A Little Love on Tuesdays

Thank goodness for DIY wedding projects because they sure make a wedding budget reachable! Towards the end of planning the money stack seems much shorter! Thats why making additions to the wedding decor yourself really saves so much money! I purchased wooden numbers and black spray paint and made our numbers!

Yup, that's right! Those kitchen cabinets are painted!
Our little big weekend project is complete! We have been debating on how we are going to re-do our kitchen! Of course we purchased this house because we didn't have to re-do anything...but my husband married a "home improvement" fanatic! We have been debating on having someone re- stain the cabinets, or replace the cabinets, or doing them ourselves. We of course chose the "DIY" option. Our first step to our kitchen flip was to get rid of those maple cabinets! We purchased the "cabinet transformations" kit for $120 and started painting! Now we  need to splurge on...floors, counters, appliances etc.

So Called..."Upgraded Fixtures"
