New Blog Design

I got a new blog makeover!! Jenny from pinkarmchairdesigns.com did it and I love it!! She also did my last design. I really loved that one, too, but was ready for a change.  Go over to her site and see all the blog designs she has.  I love all of them!

I've been playing around with Picassa and made this collage for my wallpaper on my computer. I thought it was fun. :)
Bunco is cancelled for tonight. :( I LOVE Bunco!! We're rescheduling for next week, though.  Mar wants to go to Cannon's football game in Jacksonville tonight.  He also wants to go to the PA football game tomorrow night and we're going to the Razorback game on Saturday.  We also went to Cannon's football game on Tuesday night so to say that there is A LOT of football in my life right now is an understatement. :) As long as the weather is pretty, it's all good! On Saturday, the Razorbacks are playing my alma mater...ULM. I never know who to cheer for.  I will always be a Razorback but ULM has a special place in my heart.  Last year, I just cheered for both teams. I will be happy if ULM wins because they never win and are the major underdogs but that wouldn't look too good for the Razorbacks, so I'm torn. I did get me a cute new shirt to wear to the game, though. :)

Last night, Hannah and I went to a Stella and Dot party.  It's a fairly new jewelry company. My friend is selling it so I wanted to support her. They sale kids' jewelry, too, so I got Rosy a necklace.
This is the necklace that Rosy picked out. Isn't it cute? She decided on this one because it had more colors than the pink necklace had so she can wear this one with more of her outfits (her words). HA! :) I love it!!! That sweet little sunshine!
And I got me this necklace. It's kind of hard to tell in this picture but it's a long necklace that can be doubled over or worn long. I really like it!

After the party, Hannah and I headed over to a friend's house who is selling everything in her house. I really needed some chargers and she was selling 10 red ones for $5!! I, of course, jumped on that as quick as I could! I already have them on my table.  I know my mom will be glad, I'm always borrowing hers. :)
Yes, I have my fall candy out already.  And my fall scents are all plugged in to my Wallflowers. I'm SO ready for fall and especially fall weather! 
The chargers look a little bit chocolate colored in these pictures instead of red. I love the color because it's real dark red...not bright at all.  They will be perfect for Christmas, which is the month I'm hosting Bunco and I'm having our Ladies' Group Christmas party at my house so the more Christmas colors, the better! :)

Well, I'm outta here.  Got to go finish laundry, get ready for the football game, and hopefully sometime in between those two, try to exercise.  It's so hot and humid outside today. Yesterday, it was only 78 degrees when I went walking but it was so humid, that I literally came home drenched.  I will be SO glad when it gets cooler and there is less humidity (I know I have said it over and over again).  I've got some kind of crazy heat rash from all the sweating I've done when exercising this summer. This is the first summer I've ever exercised in the heat. I kept saying I wasn't going to do it and that I was just going to walk on the treadmill but I ended up walking outside....the treadmill is just so boring next to being out in God's beautiful creation...even if it is really hot!
More later!

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...

My girl is MARRIED!!!

Oh, it's been so long since I've posted! I always say I'm going to start blogging again so I can remember things and then I never do. I get overwhelmed because I get so behind. It's like when I used to scrapbook, I would get behind and then just not do it. That's how I am about blogging but I just don't seem to remember things as well if I don't write them down and I love to have a record of life with pictures. But, I just HAD to write about Macy's wedding! I am just so happy about it!! I feel so overwhelmed with God's love for me and His goodness!!! Macy has always been such an example to me of God's grace and this is no exception. I always say, "How can Macy be MY child?" because she's just so NOT me. She is so much better! She loves mission trips, she is so laid back, and she has definitely not struggled in the same areas that I have struggled with. I've prayed for so long for specifics for Macy's future husband. The mai...
