Scavenger Hunt Sunday | 07.29.12

Filed Under: Photography Tagged With: scavenger hunt sunday

Hello everyone! Hope you are having a fabulous weekend. We just got home from the Nickelback Concert. So much fun! Anyways this week I am sharing a few photos from last week at the HPE conference and the one night we went to the Legend race car races at Charlotte Motor Speedway. It was so much fun!

Paint

I am guessing that is paint on that water tower. The seats probably aren’t actually painted but they do make a cool pattern.

Green

The grass sure is green! I loved being in this huge stadium, but there weren’t many people there. Which was nice!

Eyelashes

I am soooo jealous of Carsyn’s eyelashes. This isn’t the best picture to show them but his eyes are gorgeous here.

Shapes

Balloons are a shape. We sent up balloons with notes attached for all the HPE Angels that we have lost already. This was so touching and sad, yet beautiful.

Clouds

Tuesday night we had some  gorgeous clouds.

Still on my to-do list: a gallery wall and living wall, but I'm a bit nervous since I'm not exactly good at that. One day, though... I also dream of getting a projector to display scenes on the big white wall.

I'm going to miss my Halloween decorations when they come down - time to start scouring thrift stores for Christmas decor, I suppose! 🎄
Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I Thanks for coming along on this journey with me. I am so grateful to have my own library/plant space. 

It will be a few more months/weeks before it’s complete but I’m proud of how far it’s come. 

What I have left to do still: Get the top for my desk and seal it. Organize my craft stuff and put it on the shelves under my desk. Figure out my gallery wall above my desk. Order my @wallygrowplanters for my living wall. And of course buy more books and plants. 😆

It may not be perfect or Instagram “worthy” but it’s mine and I’m proud of all the time and effort we have put into it. The rug arrived today. I am so pleased with how it is coming together. Thanks so much to my cousin @r_holz9 for all her decorating advice and @em.e.hicks for putting up with my million text messages. IKEA bookcases will be here tomorrow. Then need to paint them and start moving my books out there. After I finish with that, I will work on my living plant wall. Not sure when my low bookcases and desk will be built, but it will happen eventually. Almost there. 🙌🏼
