We LOVE Football

We love football so much that we signed up a group of
our players to play in a Spring Football Tournament!
Last weekend was our first game.
It was a beautiful day filled with excitement.
Landon was full of anticipation... The 2 younger boys loved rooting him on.
It was an awesome game!
We won 26-0!!
Oh, yeah baby...
BRING IT ON!!!!!
Go Oceanway BUCS. YOU ROCK!

Gotta Love Spray Paint

Do you have any of these around your home???
Yes, those. The ugly, el cheapo, cookie cutter ceiling lights??
Well, I did too. Several of them I might add.
But, thanks to this wonderful product...
I don't have those ugly lights anymore.
They almost look like they may have cost more than $5 now!! Ha!

Quite amazing what a little spray paint can do.

I love the way they turned out.

A little time, a can of spray paint and whala...

A totally new look for an old tired ceiling light!!!

Birthday's Galore

Mom got to enjoy her birthday with both of her children and
ALL of her grandbabies this year.
It made for a very special birthday!
Corbin turned 7 on the 11th!
Crazy.
That's my baby boy and he is 7!
Not sure if I like that.
He wanted his special birthday lunch to be at
Hooters...of all places!
Tickle made him an awesome football cake!
He loved it! He celebrated by having 3 of his friends over for the night! I think they had great fun! And, Toby's grandmother celebrated her 99th birthday!!! Isn't that amazing! BTW, her sister just turned 102. I think my MIL will have some major longevity. Hopefully, that will get passed down to my children!!! It's been a great month so far...only a few more day until March. I am so looking forward to spring.

Gettin' This Thang Off the Ground

Ok, so it's been a week since my last post {maybe longer}!
I've been totally consumed by the computer.
I've been editing the photos I took of sweet little Joshua.
I even also created my very own website!
This is a free one!
I can upgrade later if I see my photography business take off.
I just don't want to spend any money that I don't have to right now.
I've worked really hard at putting it together.
It turned out well, I think!

I've got a few little kinks I'm working out.

I'll let you see it as soon as it's 100%!

Baby Pics

I got to take pictures of the
sweetest little thang ever yesterday!
Mr. Joshua is 2 weeks old
Isn't he beautiful?
These were my favorite pics from our session!
I ain't gonna lie...
I was so nervous! I wanted to be as professional as I could.
But, AAAAh! was screming in my head.
Sweat was tripping from my forehead and everything!
This was even a friend of mine...
And I was crazy nervous.
Can't imagine not knowing the person.
I wanted it to be a great experience for them and to end up with some
amazing shots! I think I accomplished what I set out to do.
Now, I'm hooked.
I want to get better and better...
I need babies, please!!

Get Set, Get Fit, Go!

It sounds exciting, but
it's NOT!
I'm just trying to get into a routine.
I need to lose som L-Bs.
The Holidays weighed heavy on me this year!
Really!
Yuck!
So, a friend and I are planning to walk this morning.
We tried several mornings last week, but
none of them worked out.
This is a new week and I know it will be great.
Fresh air.
Good company.
And exercise!
Yesterday was a bad day.
Rainy.
Cold.
And lots of screaming boys!
But, today is a new day.
And, the sun is shining!

Lampshade Revamped

The office space I've been working on is coming along pretty good!
Now I'm working on all of the little things...
the details!
I love this lamp! I think it has been in almost
every room in my house! Ha!
At one time there were 2.
I believe one of the kids knocked over the other.
It ended up in pieces on the floor.
I like it on the desk.
It looks nice, adds light when you need it,
but it seemed to be missing something.
So, I added rolled flowers to the shade!
These rolled flowers are so easy to make.
You can do so many things with them.
Aren't they so pretty? Next I added some ribbon to the edges! What a difference a few details can make! To make your very own rolled flowers check out this site for directions!
