Pinterest, Baby!

So, I really don't feel the need to explain what Pinterest is... because everyone and their Momma has either heard of or uses this amazing site!

I'm obsessed... like seriously, seriously obsessed. 

Hi, my name is Amanda and I'm a Pin-aholic!

And here are some of my favorite as of now pins!

Shabby Chic Pom Poms by Southern Belle Soul, Mountain Bride Heart
Can we talk about how adorable this entire collection is?! Best part... she includes a tutorial for each and every one. I think a trip to the craft store is in order immediately!

If these babies taste half as good as they look it could be very dangerous for my diet. This is the perfect quick and easy (yet yummy) dinner dish. From start to finish, it takes only 30 minutes... and after reviewing the recipe, it looks super simple to make. >adding it to our weekly menu<

I have seen tons of tutorials on how to make your own chalkboards...>and I have pinned several of them< So I was elated to find this little gem! No matter how fabulous your DIY chalkboard turns out, you just can't do it justice without that uber adorable handwriting. Which I do not have. This lady has got skills... BUT she lets you in on all of her little tricks >smart<... I'm pretty confident that I can now draw on a chalkboard with the best of 'em!


Well, this list could keep going...and going...and going

But for lack of time, I will leave you with those three... this week's holy trinity of pins!

Free Printable

In my last post I mentioned a couple of our home projects going on around here, as of right now our "to-do" list is pretty long. It doesn't help that I keep adding things to that list... it's all pinterest's fault, I swear! My hubby has looked at some of his to-do's and expressed concern in his 'handyman' ability... to which I have replied with encouragement... and perhaps batted my eyelashes a bit.... and threw in a few 'pretty pretty please's' :) And to show him just how much I believed in his abilities, I made a special trip to Lowe's and surprised him with some new power tools! You would have thought I had just told him he had won the lottery.... Boys and their toys...

Anyways, with all of these projects that we are trying to tackle organization has been key! I will jot down an idea and sketch out some plans but in the beginning it was all so chaotic.. So I went on the hunt for something to help keep our to do lists organized...

...and it doesn't hurt that it is completely adorable!

I found this lovely little printable (that is totally FREE) over at IHeart Organizing and she has tons more cute printables that are absolutely free! So click on the link and check them out!

A Dose of Cuteness

Can you believe my littlest man is now over 2 months old?! He has officially outgrown all of his newborn outfits >sniff.< I am in complete denial of this little fact and refuse to take the newborn sizes out of his closet.

They may hang in there until he moves out. 

He's my baby... I'm allowed to be so crazy emotional about it. 

And for your viewing pleasure... a dose of cuteness!


Told ya!....cute cute cute!

Enjoy your weekend!

Senior Pictures


I spent most of Monday photographing my little sister and editing the pictures. She asked me to take her senior pictures.... (let me take a moment to grasp how insane it is for her to be going into her SENIOR YEAR!!!!!!!!) lol She has grown into a gorgeous young lady... I am so very proud to call her my sister!

So here are a few of my faves from the day..



























We had so much fun taking these pictures!

Hope you all had a great weekend!

XOXO
