4 years....

Today we celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary.
We are home now and had a delicious dinner with the kids.
Bacon wrapped steaks with mashed potatoes and squash. (from our garden)
I also made a chocolate cake for dessert.
I had a long post written before we went on vacation but I decided to make it short.

We had a small evening ceremony on a Friday and had the reception on a Saturday.
Here are a few pictures from our special day.


Below is me kissing my son after being away from him for the night.


Kissing for photo op.


Happy Anniversary hunny.
We have been through so much in just a few short years.
I am thankful to have you in my life.
You are a great daddy and husband.
Although we have had many disagreements, we fall back together.
I love you.
Always and forever!

Reagan's room, sneak peek!

Reagan's bedroom....
I remember putting her sweet little room together like it was yesterday.
When I was pregnant I would sit in her room forever.
Every morning I would wake and go in her room
and every night I would do the same.
I had been waiting 8 years for my sweet little girl.

Just a few months before I got pregnant with her I had my second miscarriage.
I had also had 3 colposcopies trying to figure out what was wrong with me.
I was scheduled for a procedure and just days before I was to have it I found out I was pregnant with baby girl.
I am so overjoyed that I was able to have another child before I was diagnosed with cervical cancer.
(Reagan was 6 months old)



I had custom bedding made for her crib.
Yes, she is still sleeping in her crib.
I am not BRAVE enough to let that little girl free. LOL
She will be 3 in October.


In another year or so we will update it. I'm looking forward to her input on her big girl room.
Then just a few more years she won't even want me in her room...
Oh I can just hear her LOL

I am on vacation in Texas!
I hope to share the rest of her room when we return.
Along with LOTS of pictures...we will be doing LOTS of shopping!

Happy 4th!

Small updates in the dining room

Just a few small changes to the dining area.
I love looking at this room now.
It is starting to feel more comfortable and inviting each day.

I added a vintage antler mount purchased off ETSY.
A couple plates to balance it out.
I thought about putting only red plates but when I hung the blue plates up there they just did it for me.


I added the red buffalo check pillows I had made for the living room to the bench.
(also an ETSY purchase)
Added a few more rolling pins to my bouquet.



I placed that cute little strawberry tray I got at an estate sale a few weeks back under the plant.
I decided to leave the linen towel as a runner.
I'm on the hunt for a vintage grainsack with red stripes to use for a runner.
(I'm looking at a really great shop on ETSY, I just can't make up my mind which sack)

 
My candle must have went sideways LOL I didn't notice until now.
I better go fix it!
Hubby accidently broke my clear candleholders when he was moving furniture, I searched for days trying to find a replacement.
Oh well, I really like the milk glass ones now.
I really like the pop of yellow in the vase on my cabinet.
(Vase is from Tuesday Morning)


Another glance at the full room.
The Smith painting over the back door needs to be brought down a little.
I bought it from Susie, when she had her etsy shop open.
(She does still sell them on her blog)


If you have any questions about where I bought anything or about anything at all please ask!
I will be happy to answer :)

We will be leaving for HOUSTON very soon.

Tomorrow is my hunny's birthday.
Happy Birthday babe.
I love you!

See yall when we return!
