slow moving wednesday

1. this image reminds me of the cute little coffee/ice cream cafe in lake winona which is in warsaw. i'm hoping to take mini road trips to neighboring small towns this summer if there is no pool in our backyard. {via hooray}

2. i went back to my old blog and was reading the old stuff. hard to believe i started blogging back in january of 2008!

3. is it just me or is january the longest and slowest month ever? this week seems to be going by really slowly too.

4. i missed tea with my neighbors yesterday. kaylee was not feeling well and i didn't want to take any chances. she's ending up just having a cold.

5. so i rearranged kaylee's bed again. i love her room. its girly but not over the top girly plus more of her toys are making its way downstairs.

6. then i decided to take the plunge and start taking down the wallpaper border in both bathrooms. lucky for me, its coming down very easily. unlucky for me, the previous owners didn't paint under the border in the kids bathroom.

7. and i've decided to paint my bedroom the same color as my bedroom in the old house. i went back and looked at pictures from the old house. i loved our old house. ok i loved the hardwood floors, the arched doorways and i finally had it the way i wanted it- paint, decor...

8. funny thing: back in 2008 while looking for houses and land, i had mike drive into a nearby neighborhood. he told me to keep dreaming -there was no way we could ever afford to live there. i told him to quit being such a dream stomper. well, i did keep dreaming and here we are!

9. so i finally sent my camera lens in to get fixed. a hundred bucks later it should be good as new and here by monday. i can't wait. i need to take more pics even though i have over 1000+ to be printed from last year.

10. kaylee's still watching mamma mia. good thing i like the movie too.

*** can't seem to get the new color +look for the blog. very irritating!!

  1. I was going to say... where's the old font?! lol. Keep at it..
    Hey, I miss my old house too because of same reason! It was a smaller townhouse and I loved it. Plus, we got tons of freebies as wedding gifts (i.e. new tiles, granite countertops etc-yes yes, they were wedding gifts! installation included). After 2 years, finally getting used to new place. Why'd we move? Cuz 6'3" hubby felt "constrained" in the smaller house. Bof, by now we would've had the old place paid off!
    Take some pics of your redecorating! I'd love to see...
