New Blog...

We have moved and I created a new blog to share our new home, new state, and new life... come check it out. I will try to post at least a few times a week and share my home as I decorate it.

Christmas 2016...

Better late than never!  My Christmas eve post was a mess, I was trying to do it from my phone and nothing was going right and I was just trying to get some pics loaded for memories sake.   I will go back and edit :)   So my goal of posting more hasn't come to fruition, it just seems overwhelming to edit pics and make posts as of late.  I have been using instagram, tiffaney1973, if you want to catch up though.

So here are some pics of Christmas morning at Animal Kingdom Lodge in Disney World. I made the kids get up at 6am and go to the lobby in their jammies for our annual staircase picture...I couldn't let that go :)

I hope you all had a Merry Christmas...we had a marvelous Christmas and a fabulous vacation.  We came back to a snowstorm after laying by the sunny pool the day before...I am so over the cold winters and am ready to move.

Christmas Eve at Animal Kingdom, Kidani Village

My New Kitchen...

First...thank you all for the nice comments on my catch up post...as I looked at it, I couldn't believe how much Asher has changed just since September!! Yes, he is in desperate need of a haircut. But we are waiting for his first one to be done at Disney World! Yep...we are headed there in 2 weeks!!!!! ALL TEN OF US! Can you tell I am excited ?LOL!  It will be all the kids first trip there and I haven't been there in 24 years, so it will be like all new to me to :)   More on that later...here is my little nugget.

I'm really going to try to get back into blogging, it's so nice to be able to look at years past in one place.  Life has been busy and extremely boring at the same time....time keeps passing and I know I will regret not recording it.  I have been doing instagram I know it's just not the same as a blog post.

So enough about that....let's start with a project I did this past Spring...I did a $40 makeover on my kitchen. It's amazing what a can of white paint can do :)  I put a fresh coat on the upper cupboards and finally painted the lower ones and the island. I LOVE the results!!  I also removed cupboard doors is some spots too.

Then a few months ago... I got inspired to remove the annoying doors on my small pantry(they would never stay shut).  So the pantry got a small makeover too with some organization and baskets.

One day the super ugly tile floor will go...unfortunately that day is probably awhile off :(

Long Overdue Catch Up Post....

Hello my dear friends...I never intended to step away from this space for so long...it just kind of happened.  I blogged a private space for Asher's first year and it was hard enough to keep up with that, I guess it seemed like so much work to jump over here too.  I haven't even looked at blogs in ages... the ease of instagram from my phone lured me in. But I do miss this and I am going to try to make space in the day to come here.

There is so many pictures to catch up with that it will take several days worth of posts...so we will start with the most important subject matter first ;)  the baby!!   He has grown so much and is such a sweet, lovable, huggable  dare devil!!    Here are the last 6 months in a nutshell....
