Outdoor furniture

I LOVE this outdoor furniture from Pottery Barn!!! I love the colors and I love the zebra rug. I am thinking I can copy this without having to pay so much. I saw this green and brown at Target...surely it's cheaper. Maybe they have an outdoor zebra rug at Garden Ridge or Home Depot. I'll be on the lookout! I doubt I'll be able to find the pillows anywhere other than Pottery Barn but they are on back order until June 25th. I just love this. Lamar and I got a new outdoor umbrella today at Sam's. It's one of those umbrellas that has a side pole so you have a lot more room. He's so excited and now Charlie Bear just might go underneath there if it's raining. We'll see. :)
Justin and Lamar just got the fan hung in our office...YEA!!! :) Now, the fan just blends in with the ceiling. Rosie spent the day with us today...she is SO cute!!! She also spent most of the day with us yesterday. Life's just better when a 3 year old is around. She says the funniest things! Today I was talking to Macy about how messy the upstairs guest bathroom was when Sandra came to stay at our hosuse (I was out of town and just discovered it today). I was telling her how embarrassing that is. I went on for a few minutes and then Rosie said, "We are not going to talk about this anymore...okay, Hadoo, we're not going to talk about it anymore....now, let's talk about dancing". HA! :) A little while later I tried to spell out something to Macy about the bathroom, Rosie said, "I said we're not going to talk about the toilet anymore". That girl is so smart! Nana and Poppy made it to Nebraska. I called and Mom said they had just come in Marci's house and Lillian was screaming.....Sushi Roll (her guinea pig) had a baby and just brought it upstairs. HA!!! :) Life at the Epp house! Never boring!!! :)

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...

Show us where you live Friday.....the Kitchen

Most of you probably read Kelly's blog . She is so much fun! Well, she is hosting a "Show us where you Live Friday" and this week is the kitchen edition. I am excited about this because I absolutely LOVE looking at houses and decor....it's so much fun and can really show someones personality. I just love to see how others express themselves through decorating. While I really do love my kitchen, it is the room I am looking forward to redoing the very most. My future plans are to take down the wallpaper and paint, paint the ceiling, redo the cabinets (probably really dark wood), paint the island black, take down the florescent light fixture above the island and replace with something a little more up to date, and replace the curtains. I think the previous owners did a great job decorating it but I would rather it be more my personality. I spend A LOT of time in my kitchen and I really enjoy it!! When my mom and dad moved, they gave me their big round table that seats...

Christmas Decorations

I am so behind on my blog, once again. I have so much to write about......Thanksgiving, the Turkey Trot, the Granny Walk, Marcifest, the LSU/HOG game, etc.  It was all wonderful! I don't want to leave all of that out.  I'll go back and catch up or at least I think I will.  One thing I learned way back in the day when I was scrapbooking was that if I got behind to just start where I was instead of backtracking. Otherwise, it was just too overwhelming. So, I'm starting with right now and right now, I'm decorating for Christmas.  I LOVE Christmas...the music, the atmosphere, and most especially, the celebration of Christ's birth. I got a pretty swag for my door and wanted garland to match. I have a wonderful friend, Hope, who is an incredibly talented decorator and she volunteered to make the garland for me.  We went shopping together and she knew exactly what to buy and came to my house and put it all together.  She did a great job! I love my door!!...
