It's Friday and I feel fine. In fact I'm going to lay out a few things that make me happy and I wasn't even planning on doing so but I am going with it...

First and I am not even kidding but TRIM..yes I am obsessed with trim like in the above images. It's all about the details.

Secondly, just read this lovely post and felt uplifted & inspired to never not want to create so I can be like the Creator. The beauty of it all is that we all can create in our own ways.

Lastly how about a small town parade with triplet boys who have candy stuffed into their little mouths and are wearing cameras on their shirts...yes pls. I think I am mostly saying yes pls. because I had the help that came in the form of a Papa, a Grandma and an Aunt Alisha. Without them I would have been toast (more like the boys would have been toast or flattened out like a pancake after being hit by a float from running into the street). Husband was too busy to be of assistance because he was off sitting on one of the before mentioned floats thinking he was the star of the parade. At least he was sitting on the 20 year high school reunion float and not the 30 year one...see big time. Oh don't fret though those weren't the only things to pass by in the parade. We saw lots of beauty queens, tractors and hot rods:-) Just wait until I tell you about kids catching fish with their bare hands after the parade in the park. Well hot dang because it's all true.

Have a lovely weekend!

  1. Your boys are beautiful!! Love their camera shirts, sitting there so sweetly during the parade. My son runs around like a little maniac as every float throws candy. It gets a little nuts. Definitely need assistance when we attend those.
    Love the trim in the images you posted- that bed is fabulous!! Happy Friday! xo

  15. Washs that parade in Richfield, Utah? They do that fish thing (which my kids loved when they were young) so I was just wondering. Found your blog through Becky Higgins referral. Very nice decorating ideas.

  16. oh hello! haven't been around in a while but just thought i'd stop in and say hello, still loving your blog and the inspiration i get from it. i'm so so so impressed by the girls room. not even just the decor but the fact that you SPENT UNDER $250.

    on my mom's side of the family, when all the women get together... we shop. and we definitely don't go to the mall. we yard sale like crazy, find stuff on craigslists or ksl and together we have so much fun. there is talent in my family.. that is for sure. my cousin's house looks straight out of any home decor magazine yet everything in EVERY room is second hand or maybe just found on sale (for an amazing price). i love it so much, so hopefully you can see why your girls bedroom made me so so happy.

    anyway don't you just like.. look in their room and then just love yourself? because clearly you have an eye for design and a budget. which is really what everyone wants!

  17. i almost forgot to tell you the most important thing i had to say! lately i've been feeling bugged at myself for buying whatever i see that i just have to have (treasures that i know i'll never see again) because i am creating QUITE the collection and since we only live in a one bedroom apartment.... ya. so anyway when i read about the girls room, i felt so much better because a lot of it you already had and maybe had for quite awhile? anyway it just gave me some peace of mind.

  21. Love the camera tees! Seeing the bruised shins on the boys made me laugh (sorry) as a mom of one busy boy I can totally appreciate how much mischief they get into. :)

  22. Valerie...yes that was in Richfield UT. Isn't so fun to watch the kids catch the fish with their bare hands. Fun to find others who know what I am talking about.
