Chalkboard Paint


{Lovely Lauren at pure style home shares a picture of her kitchen with us}

Ever since I came across this picture in December, I fell in love with the idea. While i think it may be 'too much' in this house, since our fridge can unfortunately be viewed from the living room, I'm stealing this idea someday!

What a great, great idea! And so children-friendly!!!

Cute birth story.


Heaven bless Joanna Goddard. She features the sweetest, most charming stories on her blog Cup of Jo. A few days ago, she linked up to a certain story and I keep coming back to it simply because it's the sweetest thing I've read in a while.

Birth is a miracle regardless of circumstance. This story is no different. Well, maybe just slightly.

I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. It's truly remarkable!

Read it here from the mommy herself, Jenny from Pearl Street Interiors.

My Parents Were Awesome.

*photo from My Parents Were Awesome

Okay, so, do you know Joanna Goddard of Cup of Jo?
:
She's so great. And so is her blog. She finds the greatest, most pretty websites this world wide web has to offer and she features them on her blog - websites that we might otherwise have missed out on if it weren't for her.
:
I'm so glad we didn't miss out on this one. So, so, so glad.
:
It's called My Parents Were Awesome and it's a website where the public can upload sweet photos of their parents and grandparents.
:
Last night, after our little one was sound asleep, we sat two on our broken little office chair to scroll through the 'parent picture' archives.
:
We feel that the picture of the lovely couple shown above is the grand-prize winner.
:
I mean look at that face of his. Look at that 'stouche. And a shirt to match. Does it get any better?
:
It felt so good to laugh that much. And real laughter, too. Sweet tears came rolling down our jolly faces. We had us a grand time. Some much-needed 'winter-blues' therapy (for me, at least).
:
{PS}
Wouldn't it be awesome if that guy was really your dad?

spooky touch

I have decided that I should really share more of the fun blogs I follow. So, today, I've decided to share The Curious Sofa Diaries. 'Curious Sofa', I discovered, is a quaint shoppe in Kansas City. The owner is the author of the blog and she shares with the world, the wonderful goods she sells in her store. Visit here to see her post featuring all of their halloween treats. If you scroll to the bottom of the post, you'll see their cheesecloth wrapper chandeliers. While I don't have a chandelier (I WISH), I had to steal the idea this weekend. I bought a six-yard package of cheesecloth and went to town.

Adds quite the spooky touch, eh?
