Hurricane Katrina


So much destruction, so much devastation, so much uncertainty.

We still live it. We will Never Forget, but we are still rebuilding. We are still picking up the pieces 6 years later.
I love my city. I hope I never have to leave ever again.

Oh My, How I love My Vintage High Chair!


I have been on a hunt for an old school high chair since before Jr. was born. CL has always been my best friend when it comes to finding treasure, but for months nothing. Until last month, I came across this baby and I had to spend the 10 bucks on it:

She needs some work, but hey she's worth it.. I heart her.... ;-)  Now all I need is a vintage pot, but I got some time....

What you think?

The Evolution of our Bar Stools....


My Our design style is evolving, so the things we  spent so much time doing, we are changing it again, and I couldn't be more excited about it.

When we brought off CL:
Contemporary espresso with tan fabric.. I wasn't a fan...

Then I decided to change fabric to this..


Not sure why I chose that fabric
so again I changed it again.

TO this mess...

Country Chic??lmao
so it went through it's blue period.. 
new color & fabric.. I hated it.
What was I thinking??

Today:
Now, this is by far my favorite! 

Contemporary Global 
black & new fabric... I just love looking at these chairs!

Which transformation do you like the best??

Updated Pantry. ..


I  hated absolutely hated the color of the pantry door. Plus, it was peeling....Never a good or safe thing with a baby, so we stained it. When I tell you it was such a transformation. I wish I would have done this from the start. I absolutely love the screen door now. 

Before:

Stuck at the Crossroads


Time to catch my breath. Time to clear my head and focus on me. Now, what should I do with this time to myself? Do something for my family maybe? Being a wife & mom is a never ending battle and sometimes I feel like I'm losing. I don't get up and fix my husband breakfast like I should. I don't cook every night like I should. I really feel like my house is a mess no matter how many times I clean up. I always feel behind in everything. I can't seem to get on top of things. I also, don't have time to take care of myself. I feel fat even ugly sometimes. My hair is never done. I hardly wear make-up. I don't shop for clothes nor do I shop for shoes anymore. I don't paint my toes or get my eyebrows waxed anymore. I feel like a failure, but I know I try. I just wish I knew my life's path. I wish I knew my purpose in life. I could just find my passion. confused.


One thing is for sure is that I love my family with all of my heart and soul. Nobody is better than my husband. Nobody kisses me like him. Nobody loves me like him. He is the one thing in my life that I am sure of. Well him and Jr. :-)
