Good grief Charlie Brown...13 days?

It has been 13 days since I last blogged??!!!
Really?  I keep meaning to post something, I get inspiration through the day and I think "Oh... I should blog about this"....." ooo, this would make a great post".... But alas I keep getting sucked into the dreamily perfect slow pace of my simple life.

My sister and I went out to a girl's night out gala that the hair salon I go to was throwing. It was a lot of fun and we met some cool ladies!

 I made a pair of earring for the event to go with my outfit. I am very smitten with them!

On Tuesday my little baby boy Roman Gabriel turned 4! He is such a cool little guy. I feel soooo blessed to be his Mama!

For his birthday present we got him a new bike. He amaze's me how good he is riding it. And fast.... Man am I ever in for a whole lotta bandaide's....

Well it was not so slow during this weekend. I had a huge surprise party for Roman's 4th birthday on Saturday and was cleaning the house like mad and PAINTING??!!! Yes, I "had" to paint the living room and both bathroom's before people got here.... Like the new blue is the living room?! I will take better pictures soon!

It was so good to see  my Victoria friends and family. They all stayed over the next morning and the hubby's made us Momma's a lovely breakfast of french toast!

My mother's day gift from Hubby was a RAD Electra bike!!!! I like to ride my bicycle!!!

 It was a really great weekend, but were we ever pooped by the end of it....

Roman and Esme finally started their first day at the new preschool on Monday. Esme was beyond excited! She was big enough to go with Roman and she was over the moon to finally be a big girl.

I am a day late for the lovely Kassi's "Two things i LOVE around my house". I love this blog link up, and she is feeling a little bummed that not so many are linking up.... So go show your love and support for her ladies!!!! She is such a rad blogger and I love seeing peek's into other people's homes!
Soooo here are my two things.

A strawberry shirt and more strawberries! I mean, seriously.... How can you not love this....
Or how about a strawberry shirt and a pink Tutu?!

I am loving the sweet little scene that I set up on the old movie cabinet. Something about the new blue wall's so crisp and clean with the blue and purple flower's and of course my little bit of Paris....

Well, I hope you are all having a good Wednesday so far. Wednesday always makes me laugh, hump day, especially when I need to type it. So not to forget that funny D... I sound it out  in my head like I did as a little girl... Wed nezzz day.... I know, I am funny!

Two things and a baby no more

Welcome to some new follower's!!
My littlest baby, London Ruby is now not a baby. She turned 1 years old on Saturday. It was a lovely party. Lot's of family came up, and a surprise visit from wonderful friends. The weather was GORGEOUS! Hot and sunny, perfect for a party! I am still sorting through the photo's. Something about a first birthday, I go click crazy and my memory card begs for mercy....
Here are a few from the day of festivities...

My lovely Kassi is doing her two things she loves around her home and you can head on over to her blog to link up!
Here is my two things that i amore...
An antique pie safe that I found my first week after I moved at the antique store I have dropped a mortgage payment at....

The little piece of driftwood Roman found and said it was a boat that need to sail in the bath tub!

Another find at "my" store.... I get giddy looking at this piece. I am just in love with the blue mason jar too. I must find something to put in them, like some pretty flower's and make it a center piece on the dining room table!
Well I hope it is as bright and sunny as it is here! Happy Tuesday all!

Two more things I lurve....

The lovely Kassi is doing her Two things she loves around her home again! Head over and link up y'all.
Here is my week's installment....

 

I found this totally by chance at some random teen store, and I was so stoked finding it as it worked so perfectly to showcase my earring's I made for the craft fair this past Christmas.  I just love it so!

Next....

 

This adorable vase I bought at a Church sale last summer for 25cents?! So rad. I just love the handle on it. I have used it so much, and it is sitting pretty in the living room with cherry blossoms, making the room smell so sweet and "springy"

On a side not for today here is London the Godzilla baby attacking our poor dollhouse. I come into her room this morning after getting everyone's breakfast ready and this is the sight I see...

 

Then I pull her down only to come back to this....She is such a hilarious kids....

 

Then she took 5 step's, all by herself, then did it again, 3 times. She is only 10 month's old??!!

My little baby is growing up too fast. Sniff, sniff...

Two things I love.....

 Well it is more like four but they are all connected in the pictures. Killing two bird's with one post so to speak , the lovely Kassi at bacwoodsfern does a Two things you love around the house link up on Tues, and Kerry's I love.... all through February. Head on over and link up to Kassi's and join in with Kerry!
Since we are packing up, it is getting more and more hard to find things out that I can take a picture of... But alas two piece's I know will be out till the end, and I am so happy as they really are my most favorite around the house.

This is the old window given to me by my old bosses wife, Sheila who now has opened up the sweetest home decor store French Vanilla Home Decor. I lovvvvve her store, really everything in her shop I put in my home, she kept wanting me to work for her, but I kept popping out babies....Sorry Sheila!
The window is gorgeous, old crackling paint at least three layers, I went and got a mirror fitted for it and I just love the way it look's beside the kitchen table, really open's up the tiny area.

 

Another gift from Sheila, is this tin tile "hanging pouch" I usually put fresh cut greenery or dried in it depending on the season change. Again gorgeous patina and really rustic. Perfect!

Numero 2....
 

This lovely vintage birdcage is actually my mom's, found in her basement! I used it for a craft fair to hang my feather in it and it was just too perfect. Feather headbands on a birdcage? Perfect! So many people commented on how beautiful it was, I must agree indeed...

I have yet to give it back to her, I keep "forgetting", it may by mistake come up with me to the country.Hehehe.....
