savannah again

Alan and I had the opportunity to take a 48 hour little trip.

His work allowed us to go to Savannah and after the work was done...



Priceline got us a fantastic deal!

Dinner at Moon River Brewery and Restuarant -This is fried green tomatoes and crab!!!

Savannah was fun and I am so glad we got to experience it together again.

Date Day

Often Alan and I work side jobs on Saturdays- our day off we have together.

So when we do get the chance, we like to fit a lot in.

We began with estate sales- which were very dissapointing but we ended up driving by Krispy Kreme

which had all these BEAUTIFUL vintage cars parked in front of it.

Our favorite:)

Next stop was Homewood! We went into all the little shops and the one featured below is quite brilliant.

WHITE FLOWERS

 I was most intrigued by the room itself- the decor, the walls, the floor, everything was WHITE

 And our next stop was the furniture store across the street.

 How fun is that? A barrel turned end table!

And my favorite chair. Too bad its overpriced.

Maybe I can create a copy with estate sale finds and reupholstering it.

erika's birthday

One of my dear friends Mrs. Erika Berryhill had a special day not too long ago.

We celebrated with red velvet cake and temporary tattoos!

 25 years

 Lining up for artstic creations by the future Mrs. Tindol!

 Seth getting a classy chinese character on the back of his neck!

 It's a big commitment getting a tattoo on your face!

 Expelliarmus! (For those who don't get that- he has a lightning bolt tattoo on his forehead haha)

 Catch Phrase!

Birthdays are always fun and in my opinion- Very Important!

It tells someone you love them and you care about them.

So I leave with this- give a birthday card to your coworkers, take your spouse on a private camping trip, make cupcakes for your kid's classmates.

Kitchen Makeover

Our kitchen was pretty rough to begin with but with a little love it feels like home now.

Alan surprised me!

While I was working all day, he painted all the cabinets and replaced the nasty oxidized knobs.

Navy blue cabinets with silver knobs!

Alan then used some old fabric to make a curtain to cover up the gaping hole under the counter.

babies everywhere

Babies are truly amazing in every way.

I'm perfectly content holding a baby- even if it cries.

No I am not pregnant nor will I be any time soon,

 but I am very much enjoying watching my friends try parenting for the first time.

First little one came right before Christmas- Sweet Judah!

His parents are our upstairs neighbors:)

Precious.

Second came little Charlotte on Wednesday morning at 8am.

Charlotte belongs to our dear friends Lauren and Trey Thomason!

 La La Lauren and Charlotte

Charlotte and her Daddy.

Alan loves talking about the subject of babies and how two people are creating a life.

That there is now a soul that will always exist.

And while Alan reminisces on that- I will think about how wonderful they smell.

knoxville

Be proud... I was spontaneous!

Tuesday night we drove with our good friends Chadwick and Erika to take a road trip

up to Knoxville to see our friend Brent!

We stayed with Brandt and Jamie, and played Kinect until 3 or 4am.

We woke up to a huge breakfast and then we went exploring downtown.

Even though we were only there for 24 hours- it was perfect.
