Yay! Changes!

I really do love every season, but there is something about the cool air that starts to come at the end of September down here that just makes me feel so ALIVE. It brings renewed energy after weeks and weeks of dog hot weather. I LOVE heat, especially since we live right near the beach - there's nothing better than jumping in the ocean on a blistering hot day. But with a 1 year old who gets overheated fast... we are so glad to welcome cooler temperatures!

It is probably around 80 degrees in the sun and real breezy today and it feels GREAT. I have opened up all the windows and letting that breeze flows through is just incredible. I LOVE air conditioning, but I love fresh cool air more! The fans are going, the breeze is flowing, mommie's energy is rising, and I can FEEL the germs leaving the house!

We spent the whole morning playing outside, walking all around the yard, playing with the dump truck and it was great. I had my cup of coffee outside the screened porch watching Raymond and Lennox and I just had an... "ahhhh life is good, God is great" moment.


My personality makes me obsessive for change... and so here are a few little house decor I've put up recently that I really love:

At night, the car headlights were waking Raymond up.... so we had to put up this gorgeous red curtains. I used to have just a valance up there, but I didn't have enough money to get the double curtain rod system... so we just kept the one rod, and I put the valances as a bedskirt on the double bed in his room! It looks like a bedskirt doesn't it!? I was soo proud of myself. That's about as creative as I get... to me this was one of my best creative moments! haha. And I think the room looks so cute!

I also bought these brown baskets a long time ago but were using them somewhere else... so now I use them to separate his toys on and put on his shelf. My next "house to do" is to clean up his shelf in his closet! ahhh! The bookshelf and baskets still look pretty sloppy in this picture but that's because it was the middle of the day. We hadn't had cleanup yet! It looks real good all straightened up and put away.

This sailing thing was on top of a corner curio in my bedroom... but I think it just looks great on the wall... and matches the rest of the master bath as seen. We had our vows right there on the wall, but the frame was starting to break... so I put them in different frames and have them on our bookshelf in our room now.

And yes that's Lennox, the dog, drinking out of his dog bowl right there. Didn't feel like waiting for him to be done so I could take a picture!

I LOVE LOVE LOVE change! Actually I CRAVE it quite often. That's just part of ME!
