Friday Fun

Filed Under: Family, Photography

I hope everyone has been having a good week. Enjoy your Friday and have a wonderful weekend. I feel better about being able to visit most everyone back. Thanks again for understanding and your sweet words. I have been enjoying the weather with my boys. I took these photos yesterday, it was so gorgeous.

Skywatch Friday

You can see me in his spit bubbles. Ha ha. There are three of me. You can also see his teeth really good. Remember- you can click the photos to make them bigger.

I tried to get some photos of Dustyn blowing Dandelions. This was like the only good photo I got.

Live Every Moment and then, she {snapped}

Take my other button :)

By the way I added some adorable videos on You Tube. But here are my two favorites.

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. 🙌🏼
