our day today... so far.

We are just relaxing today, we are going to the grocery store in a bit. Emma wants to have a "Fancy Nancy" New Years Eve party. I have been invited to a few parties tonight, but I really think I just want to stay home with Emma :)

I did alot of painting lastnight.
 

The room in the basement was a teal color, and I have been wanting to paint it since day one!

Alot of my older things are more contemporary, so it clashes alittle with my shabby chic/french style I want. Everything contemporary has been pushed downstairs. Its more vintage looking if anything, but I really plan to replace everything and have it to my liking by spring.

I love the couch in that room. I have had that couch since I was a little girl. I plan on buying a pretty quilt to put on it, and fill it with tons of pillows, to hide its aging. lol!

I have been on the hunt for window treatments, and ideas for this room. The bathroom I am happy with,  again, the vintage painting will be replaced soon.

The showercurtain, rug, and shower hooks are Simply Shabby Chic. I love them!!

Emma always sleeps with Belle. <3

nice night. :)

Even though today started out HORRIBLE (While backing out of my garage I managed to break off my side mirror) tonight ended great.

I painted my downstairs bathroom, and I painted the room downstairs. Then I made two loaves of bread.

Emma fell asleep at 7:30, so I have been alone most of the night, which is fine; but I have been pretty bored!



Here are some pics from my camera of a few rooms in my house!

Think I have ghosts? Or just dust in my NEW camera?? hmm...

here is a small view of my bathroom. I bought those shutters at an antique shop and I use it to hang my necklaces, and jewelry on it. I love it.

$100

I got a hundred dollars from work for my employees selling over our goal...

So... I spent it on more matching plates, saucers, and teacups (I have blue and white ones already)

I added to my collection :) I LOVE them!

it was nice to have some extra cash!

I also bought another rug for my bathroom.

I have like 30 dollars left to spend, so I am not sure what I will get with it :)

It was yummy!

I coated them with egg, flour, basil, italian seasoning, garlic, and other spices. I put them in a skillet, and poured in some white wine and then cooked them.

Then I added red peppers, yellow peppers, and green peppers

then I put it in a pan with spaghetti, the sauce, etc. and baked it with italian cheeses (mozzarella, Parmesan) and then made some garlic bread!

Bad blogger.

I have been so busy with work, and the new house that I haven't been online in FOREVER! We finally got the xmas tree up, new things for the bathroom.. I painted my room (dark grey) and Emma's room (pink of course).

I painted the bathroom in the basement, but I HATE it! I will be redoing that soon- its not my top priority at the moment!!
