Bookshelves

So, after a little over a year of living in our house, I FINALLY decorated the bookshelves in our room. They have been totally empty except for my side, which had books on the bottom shelf. It wasn't decorated at all. I have been wanting to decorate them but didn't really know what to do and it felt a little overwhelming. I finally started getting stuff out of the office closet and bringing it into our bedroom. I just played with Lamar's side and got it done. I did go to Hobby Lobby and buy the Laugh but that was all his side needed. My side, on the other hand, needed some more stuff. Hobby Lobby has the cutest stuff. Fortunately, my parents are getting rid of lots of stuff for the move (that is coming up on the 18th) so I got a lot of old encyclopedias (from the 1800's!) and was able to decorate with them. Anyway, I like looking at my shelves now.

Lamar's side

My side
We're going to the lake tomorrow with the Pate's. They got a new lakehouse. Should be fun! I have been putting off painting all day today. I have to put a second coat of paint on our trim in the living room. It's not an easy trim job....our trim has little teeth in the middle. I'm thinking I'd almost rather just leave them wood color than paint them. Anyway, Lamar's in there painting as I write this and I need to go help him. Rosie's coming tomorrow!!!! I am one happy Hadoo!!!
I made this little picture on Picnic...what a fun little program!

Fast and Easy Rolo Brownie Bites

Happy Happy Friday, y'all! Some of y'all might know that back in the day I had a baking blog. And, by back in the day, I mean I started it in 2009 and my last post was in 2011. I probably should update it and keep adding to it, but I just don't bake or cook as much anymore now that our nest is empty. But, I did have so much fun with that blog. I would just bake or cook as usual but along the way I would take pictures and blog about the recipes. I still go back to that site and get recipes. I send my kids and friends there when they are wanting a certain recipe, too. It's so easy to just send them a link. I'm all about fast and easy recipes! One of my favorite super easy "go to" recipes are these super yummy and easy brownie bites. I first blogged about these in 2009 here but thought I would add the yummy recipe to this blog, too.  Ingredients: Brownie Mix (I use the Duncan Hines 13x9 family size). Rolo's (they now have them unwrapped) WOOHO...

Dresser Redo

I've been so bad at blogging in the past few years. I blog so I can remember. I painted a set of chest of drawers a few years ago in our other house and I loved the result. The only problem is I didn't blog about it so I have no record of what I did to it. I have no idea what red paint color I used. I thought I had it written on FB but I have searched and searched and I can't find anywhere where I wrote the paint color so now I have this wonderful red chest of drawers and have no idea what the color is. I didn't want that to happen again so I am making sure that I write about the chest of drawers in our master bedroom that I recently painted.  Here is the piece of furniture before Sorry about me in my robe in the mirror. LOL! I really wanted to lighten this up so I decided I would paint it white. I LOVE white and thought it would be great SO I used this chalk paint that I got at Michael's. I had already used it on my coffee table and thought it would be f...

Nashville Trip

Once again, it has been SO long since I have done a blog post. I think with Instagram, Facebook, Twitter, and all the other social media, I get overwhelmed. I haven't posted a Facebook album in so long, though, so I really wanted to start blogging again to be able to remember! This might be my last post for 2 years again, though! LOL! We will see. We took a business trip last weekend to Nashville (first time to ever go to Nashville) and it was so fun because on this business trip, Macy and Kevin got to come with us! I haven't written on here yet about it, but Kevin is now working for the same company Lamar works for and we are just THRILLED about it!!!  Our weekend trip actually started on a Thursday. The morning started with my first visit to the ER ever but more about that in another post. I was okay and am so so thankful for my precious dad who took me there and we got to bypass the waiting room. I have continued to be blessed by my Dad and his love for the Lord and oth...
