The Townhouse Tour: Living Room Updated!

Well I have been hard at work redecorating my living room and it's finally starting to come together!! You might notice two very big changes in the above picture. I got a new to me coffee table and a monogrammed mirror!!
I also changed up the kid's section of my "waiting room" as I call it. And got a bookshelf where I could put the books, coloring books, toys, ect on. Much cleaner looking! Mom also brought some of my old dolls from home! It's been so weird/funny to see kids playing with the toys that I did when I was a little girl!
I also moved the Baker's rack from right by the door into my kitchen. It was just too cramped. I put up this shelf with some seasonal decorations, as well as my keys, and lipstick for when i head out the door. As well as a small mirror so I can check myself before I head out!
This will have a post all of it's own soon, but I made my own Pictorial Family Tree stairway! I love it!! I still have to blow up my Grandparents wedding picture into an 8x10 and put it in the bare spot you see above, and then it's finished! It turned out better than I had expected!
I put some pumpkin lights on the stairs and then decorated the top of my armoire with some fall things!
Closer look
I found these cute scarecrow people at Target in the dollar spot! Holla!!
Side view of my mirror and new coffee table!!
Another view. I LOVE my living room! I definitely spend the most time in it!!
My coffee table. I still can't believe I scored this for 15 bucks on Craigslist! Mom is going to cut a board for the bottom so I can have some shelves underneath!
Love.
How awesome did my monogram turn out??!! The great Bryna actually FREEHANDED it, because her cricut with the font was broke! I'm amazed at her talent!!
Another long shot as if I didn't have enough!
Shot with the kids area.
And of course my beautiful curtains!!!! I think I might like to get some sort of sconces for around the mirror, not sure. And I want something to hang on the wall behind the kids area but not sure what? I have two lamps at Gordman's that are on my Christmas wish list- they perfectly match the blue of my curtains! So stay tuned! Slowly but surely it's coming together and I love it!

This is My Love Story

In the predawn hours of New Years Day 2004 I was faced with a choice. After spending New Year's Eve at a local bar with a friend, I came home and through the events that transpired, I saw clearly a vision of my future. What would happen to me if I continued on the path I had been taking. I had a choice to make and within a split second I knew what my answer was going to be. I grew up in a Christian home. I was saved at an early age. When I was 13/14 on my Birthday Sunday, Pastor Martin preached a sermon about those of us who had been saved at an early age and knowing if your salvation was real or not. I spent the rest of the day and my party tormented because I could not remember what was in my heart when I was younger. That night I gave my life to Christ and knew without a shadow of a doubt that I was his, and going to Heaven. In the years that followed I continued to be very active in church. I played the Piano and was in charge of Sunday night offertory, I was t...

Blue Monday!

Today's Festive Blue Monday outfit! I wore my tried and true trouser jeans, a short sleeved beaded top I got on clearance at Macy's of all places for 6 bucks!! And my awesome new jeweled flats! Sooo comfy and cute! Since it was in the 60's today I was able to get away with this warmer weather outfit! Beading on the top, I love it! Shoes, so ugly they are cute!!

9/52

So I'm doing my best to get these weekly wrap up's done on Monday each week. Today has been a DOOZY. It's 9 pm and I am just now sitting down to check email and such. So if this post isn't the most well written, you'll understand once you read next week's wrap up about today!  In happier news we started off last week with my BIIIIRRRTTHHHDAAAYYYYY!!! And nothing says your Birthday like watching One Tree Hill and eating a piece of ice cream cake with lunch. Spoiler alert, I had a piece of Ice Cream cake every single day last week.  The chalkboard was updated, but sadly none of my pictures with said chalkboard looked decent.  I rocked my Be-You-Tiful shirt and a new necklace my Mom had given me.  And then I had a little photo session in the piano room with my balloons. Because, it was my birthday. and I was alone. So why not!  This is pretty much me in a nutshell... :)  Normally, I try to get work done before students arrive...
