Florida or Bust!!

 

We are heading here this week. 

I can’t wait!! 

We have heard so much about Destin, Seaside, and Watercolor, FL.  We have had this trip planned for two long years, and it is finally here.  My family is going with my sister, BIL, nephew, niece, mom, and my BFF.  How perfect is that!!  Actually, it would be perfect if my late father was here to go with us.  He would have been so excited and so much fun.  I know he will be with us in spirit!!  In all honestly, I could cry a bucket of tears over his loss every day, but I know that isn’t what he would want. 

So, we shall go and have a great time.

Happy Tuesday to All!!

Naticakes

 

Recently, we traveled to Franklin, Tennessee for my husband’s annual veterinary conference.  We had a wonderful time!!  We visited downtown Franklin and found this precious cupcake/espresso cafe.  I’m now hooked on gourmet cupcakes and coffee!!

I loved their menu board.  

I just had to take a picture of it.

I loved the distressed French chairs coupled with wooden tables topped with old shudders and glass. 

What a cute idea!!

Happy Mother’s Day !!

 

I can’t imagine my life without these little guys.  I fall more in love with them every day.  Becoming a “Mommy” has been the greatest blessing I have been given.  I have learned so much about myself and what is truly important in life.  mothersday2

 

I love you Ben and Max!!

Glitter & Bliss: Home

 

Well, we did it!! We finally have a place to call home.  We are renting a space in our home town. Unfortunately, there is no Starbucks next door, but it is just right down the street.:) Our new space is going to be a great place for us to finally spread out.

The front door opens to this large space.  The walls have a fresh coat of paint on them, and everything is very clean and like new.  If our walls could speak, I’m sure they would calmly say, “Welcome girls.  Come on in and get busy creating”.

Down a short hallway, and to the left, is this room.  Here, we will store all our merchandise and shipping supplies.    All of which have been in my garage for months…

And, down the hall to the right is this room.    This will be our “Kid Zone”.  The kids can take this room over.  It is theirs.  They can do homework, arts and crafts, play the Playstation, etc..  Perfect!!!

We even have our very own bathroom. 

How cool is that!!

Lastly, this is the view outside our window.    Not a view of Central Park, or anything remotely close, but will will try to look past the green dumpster and on to the lush green trees in the distance.

I will take more pics later, as we get settled in.  This week is a busy one.  Aside from moving, we are getting all samples out to both Daniel Richards’showrooms in Dallas and Atlanta.

Have a wonderful week!!
