Inspired

Hello friends.  I hope you had a great Memorial Day weekend and that you were able to kick off the summer with some fun.  We had a great weekend and I believe even turned over a new leaf for our family.  It has been a very long time since Jason and I have been able to ride bikes at the same time.  Either one of us was pushing a stroller or needed to walk beside one of our little ones who could not pedal as fast as the rest of us.  This weekend we took a long bike ride (and everyone rode their bikes)!  It was a blast.
Another accomplishment this weekend!  It has been about 2 years since I opened up my pinterest account and since then I have accumulated about 875 pins. Sure is a long list of wants, I know.  Now, I am completely aware that there is no way that I will ever purchase, make, or eat all of the things that I have pinned but I have been inspired to put some of those desires into action.  My new goal is to complete 1 project a week.  I will either finish up  a project I have around the house or complete a craft project I have pinned.  I will post the projects on my blog when finished!
Guess what!  I have one to share.

This weekend I finished up making over an outdoor bench that was given to me by my sister.
It sits on the front porch so that I have a nice place to relax, sip on sweet tea, and read the next issue of Country Living while the kids brush up on their bike riding skills.


It started out green, which honestly was not that bad, it just didn't look right next to the color of the house.

I had some great helpers!  We painted the bench Benjamin Moore Hannity Green.

It feels really good to start and complete a project.  I'm looking forward to many more.
Blessings,
Angie

Celebrating Memorial Day

So sorry for the lack of posts lately, it has been a very crazy, busy week!  I am extremely excited to have a long weekend ahead.

Amy and I feel so blessed to live in America.  We are thankful for the sacrifices made by so many, in the past and the present, that allow us to enjoy freedom.

For fun, we found some RED inspiration!  These pictures are so timeless and welcome summer perfectly.  Just perfect for Memorial Day weekend when we know some of you will be hitting the lake, going camping, or just hanging out with friends.



Happy Memorial Day!



Go Away Jack Frost

It is so cold here in NWA today.
Please go away Jack frost.


We are ready for spring and spring is ready for us!


We see touches of spring bursting forth around us.

Deer Season

With the beautiful, fall weather comes {Deer Season}.  I continue to see my husband in the backyard with his bow and arrows.  If he's not in the backyard ~ he's drawing his arm back {in pretend} all throughout the house.

I found these beautiful mounts on Country Living and thought I would share them with you.

 They would add such a whimsical touch to any room...  and don't you just {heart} the white washed walls?
