Hello Yellow! :)

Y'all, I put these pictures on here on June 9th (it's June 27th) and saved the post. Well, I totally forgot to write on it and publish it. Anyway, I've got a lot to catch up on as it's almost been a month (AGAIN) since I've updated.  I just got back from our "sister" trip to Lincoln, NE to hear Beth Moore speak at Living Proof Live. It was WONDERFUL!! I'll hopefully do a post on it but I don't even trust myself when I say I'm going to update anymore. Anyway, here is our yellow paint.  It was a gray taupy color and it just wasn't me.  This yellow IS me!!! Next, maybe I'll do the kitchen. OVERWHELMING but we spend so much time in there and the color of the cabinets and the wallpaper on the walls just aren't me.  So, here are the before and afters of the paint.
 
Hallway
Why oh why have I not had that 70's Brady Bunch light fixture replaced in our hallway? That was going to be the first thing done to the house when we bought it four years ago!! I even bought a light fixture to replace it.  It is still sitting in it's box in the basement. I have GOT to call an electrician and get that done. It's such an eyesore but it's been there so long that I don't even notice it anymore which is probably why it's still hanging.

Also, can't wait to replace the gray carpet on the stairs with wood.  One day. :)

SO glad that hunter green is gone. I moved the little round mirror to another place after seeing this picture. It was just a little too small for that space.
I need to replace the light fixtures in the upstairs hallway, too. I had them replaced in our closet that no one sees but not in the upstairs hallway that everyone sees. Go figure.
Happy Monday, y'all!!!

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...
