Bows & Blog Design

I am finally getting a blog make-over!  ABOUT TIME?  WAY PAST TIME!!!  I have worked with a sweet girl named Kelly who does such a wonderful job.  Kelly's information can be found HERE. She has a special going on & it ends TOMORROW at 11:59 PM so be sure to go over & get her discounted blog makeover.  She was quick & super easy to work with! =)  I can't wait to show you the new fun design she came up with for me. 

Avery & I woke up late today due to her being up most of the night.  She has a mild cough, nothing serious, so that kept her up most of the night which kept us up & down most of the night! So we slept in, made chocolate chip pancakes for breakfast, (which was a horrible idea because she was wild all day), & then I went to a spin class that I am addicted to.  I have changed my workouts a bit- I use to do lots of weights with cardio, but decided to stick to alot of cardio the next 6 weeks, & then I will introduce more weights.. blah blah blah...

so here is a piece of my sweetness today!

I haven't made bows in forever.  I decided it was time today so I got out the ribbon & made tons of Valentine bows!  I love Avery's pig tails so before bed tonight while she was in her jammies we did piggies! Her hair is finally growing...  Mom said mine was slow growing but now I have a thick head of hair.  I know someday she will have tons of crazy hair! For now, Im loving what she has.. it's fun!

I'm trying to stay more organized with my ribbon & keep the Holiday stuff together in baskets as the season approaches. We will see how long that lasts! 

Weekend Update!

We had SUCH a great family weekend! I truly enjoyed being home with just Chad & Avery & getting to do things together as a family.  But since Chad had been out of town in FL, he took me on a date Friday night to this awesome place for dinner & then we walked to this new coffee shop on our downtown square.  It was just precious!  I love coffee so we really enjoyed talking & catching up!  I think it is SO important to stay fresh in your marriage & keep the dates going consistently.  It is so easy to lose sight of each other in the craziness of the daily world, or even just with kids.

Saturday we enjoyed working around the house.  Then while Chad worked in the garage & went & got my nails done!  I love getting them polished, shellac is my favorite!

It was so cold yesterday that Avery was inside most of the day so we promised to take her to an indoor pool in our area to swim that evening.  She was so excited all day & wore her swimsuit most of the afternoon.

{You know I added that big bow for cuteness}

Sunday was fabulous!  It was such a beautiful day so we spent the afternoon at the park!

Sassy with her hands on her hips!

My FAVORITE thing to do is take long drives!  I took this picture on our way home from the park- just why I love Arkansas so much!

I added some more Valentine goodies in my Kitchen & dining room over the weekend too!

Valentine Pretties!

You know I love some decorating!  Mix red & pink together & I am really happy.  I love Valentines Day goodies!  Thought I would share what I started in my breakfast room.  More to come! 

Happy Friday! 

Chad asked me on a date to a coffee shop tomorrow night, I can hardly wait!!!  I haven't said on my blog, but he has been out of town on vacation all week in FL with my Dad & Bro fishing.... so I have been READY for him to get home! 

I spent a great week with my Momma getting pedicures & swimming during the evenings at an indoor pool that she has been going to workout out.  She has been dropping some major weight & looking AMAZING!  I love spending time with my Mom, she always helps me out & makes me laugh so much!

Little of this & that

Hi friends!  This past weekend I attended a fun Birthday for 2 of my friends!  We enjoyed Wasabi for dinner!

Happy Birthday to Amy & Nancee!

This week has been great!  I have been busy planning another party that a friend asked me to do for Valentines! Other than that, I have enjoyed a lunch with friends,  doing some excercising & having a fun play date with my sweet friend Amanda!  We took the kids, (along with our friend Amy's sweet boy Maddox), to the park Tuesday, it was 65 degree's!

Enjoy our beautiful day!
