Looking through the mirror

I look at Zach tonight playing on his phone concentrating on whatever game he's tinkering with. He does his mouth with this funny little pucker when he's concentrating and when I look at him I see our girl. Life is amazing, what a perfect mix of the two of us she is becoming already! Amazing, God is great.

Abilene fun

We love spending time with the Our cousins Sydney,Avery, Raegan, & Logan Hamilton Thanks for such a fun hangout day we love y'all!

So my hubby has this joke; Everytime he goes on travel I paint something or do some crazy project I would never attempt when he was home. Well this time he's been gone for almost a week and I was tired of my dirty looking bathtub. So off to homedepot I went. (Ps sorry for all the grammatical errors, I blog from my phone and it's hard to go fix stuff). Well in a smarter world I probably should have bought a bath kit but my frugal ways just couldn't break down and pay $100. So I opted for a 123 primer that actually showed my very bathroom tile being primed for paint. Then I bought rustoleum oil paint and a sealer. So after spending about $20 I headed home to get my project going and finished. I'm uneasy about the durability but in love with the sparkling crisp clean feeling the tub has now. I can't wait for it to finish curing and letting me jump in to take a shower. Fingers crossed it can withstand the test of time!!!! 😁

Sleepless nights

So for the past week I have been unable to sleep. My body is so tired but Everytime I lay down my mind won't stop and I toss and turn for hours. It's so annoying!!! Apparently mini me has no trouble!

Not soon enough

Tonight I Reunited my friendship with an ole highs hook buddy Allie Child's. She has grown up to be such an I spring powerful woman with two beautifully handsome boys, Bryse and Brooks. We had a great home cooked meal that Miss Allie prepared herself, great conversation, and of course great wine! Cheers to a goodnight andeeting up with friends that we have let way too much time pass us by.

Oil pulling, have you heard of it?

Apparently you swish organic unrefined cocunut oil in your mouth for 20 minutes a day them spit it out (not in the sink). This is supposed to whiten your teeth, assist with pain pain management (TMJ), and pull all the nasty toxins out of your body hence helping you feel better from bad allergies, hangover, migraines etc. HMmmmmmmmm, I think I may have to give this oil pulling a try for a week. Let me know if you do too. :)

Oops I double posted

Not sure how to delete my double post On the 22nd my sweet friend Amy is getting married and my sis in law and I are both bridesmaids!

ER VIsit with my mom.... You know it's too late when....

The nurse goes to stick a catheter in and says oh crap I accidentally stuck it in your Whoha". Then the other nurse goes wow it's not everyday you hear a girl say, " I accidentally stuck it in her ..." Bahahaha my poor mom is sitting on table while all 3 of us women are laughing till we cry. I don't know maybe you had to be here. On a lighter note hope mom is OK! Xox

Zoey helping me cook Pinterest Chic FIl A sandwiches. All I could sing while doing it was "I'm a redneck woman.... With a baby on my hip"! Ps the secret is marinade chicken for an hour in pickle juice tasted almost like the real thing. Good stuff!

So I had an 11 pound baby a year and a half ago and gained a million and one pounds. This weight loss has been one of the biggest struggles of my life but I am happy to report that I am down 20 pounds since the end of November. I still have tons to lose but I am finally seeing some progress. Yay!

My afternoon project was an attempt to turn a boring entertainment center into something out of the pages of Pottery Barn. What do you think? I am pleased with how it turned out :)
