One of my dear friends has started her own business and I could not be more proud of her. Stephanie has always been one crafty and creative little bee. Not only is her stuff adorable she is definitely a PERFECTIONIST so you will never purchase anything from her that she would not pay or make for herself. I have watched her complete a project and then turn around and start all over because she was not pleased. Now, she DID NOT ask me to post this....actually she has no clue that I am but I wanted to share some of her things with yall because I have a few of her creations myself and have received many compliments on them so I definitely want to share them with yall incase anyone would like some for themselves. So here is a  picture overload of a FEW things she does.

Adorable apron (she makes these in half sizes as well)

Everyone needs a cute dish towel for the kitchen and they are only $8.00!!! These are definitely one of my favorites! Very cute in the bathroom too!!

She has a HUGE variety of onesies and shirts....Boys & Girls

One of her newest projects are these adorable "Fabric Flowers". I wore a black and white zebra one on a black dress Saturday night and I cannot even begin to tell yall how many compliments I received!!! These flowers can be purchased with a hat or headband or you can even purchase the flower alone. You can pin it on a shirt, dress or even a necklace!!

Dont want a flower? How about a bow?!?! Cute huh?

This is only a sample of what she can do. She makes diaper cakes, banners, clothes, pillows, bedskirts.....yall get my point!! The girl has talent!

If you are interested or need a cute gift you can find her on Facebook at Molly Be Designs

Go find her and you can see all her designs! Dont see what you want....shoot her an email. Im pretty sure she would love to "create" with you!!

Happy Tuesday Yall!! Did you watch the Bachelorette last night? After last season I once again said I probably would not watch the show ever again but lets be real...who am I kidding?!!?! I could not wait to get home and tune in. I was absolutely starving when I got off work last night so I went and grabbed dinner  before heading to the mall to look for a swimsuit. Ahemmmm...what in the world was I thinking? Better yet I wasnt. I have the hardest time finding swimsuits and after two different stores I finally found ONE that I liked-- it was different from any I have ever purchased. It was a pretty blue...almost a navy but not quite. Anywho I put it on and I must say I loved the color BUT I guess I couldnt get past the chicken sandwich and fries sitting in my mid section!! AHHH...why would I go scarf down all I did before trying on a swimsuit! Needless to say I left empty handed. I guess Ill try looking again later this week.

So after dinner and a wasted trip shopping I hurried home and plopped down at 7:59 exactly (perfect timing). I have to admitt Alli was not one of my favorites last season but Im still excited to see how her journey turns out. Some of the male contestants were pure goof balls! I noticed a few psychos as well. But hey the show would not be same without them right?!?! DO YOU HAVE A FAVORITE YET?!?!? Of course I could change as time goes on but from first impressions---- Chris L (from Cape Cod) completely won me over. He was tugging on my heartstrings!! Any man who can put his life on hold and give up things he enjoys in life to move back to his hometown and in with his parents because his mama is ill just speaks volumes!! He said his mom passed a year ago but  he didnt regret any decisions because he spent the last year with her and loving her! AAAHHHH......and you know what they say "boys that love their mamas...love their wives" or wait maybe thats not it...."boys who treat their mama's good treat their wives good"...anyways  I dont know the saying but...he just seemed very genuine!

Yall have a great day!!

Hello Summer

Looks as if Summer has arrived. Yikes it has been pretty hot here but more so HUMID!!! Let me mention that I am not a fan of humidity....nope not at all. One, I have curly hair and it seems like no matter how well I straighten each strand its still bound and determined to frizz up on me.....its also pointless to try and wear makeup--it literally melts off.....its hard to breath and your clothes stick to you. So now that I have made it clear that Im not a fan lets move along. :) Summer is here and minus the humidity in the air Im quite excited!!! Summer is always one of my favorite seasons. I love being outside and spending times with friends and well Summer is the perfect time for this.

This past weekend I spent most of my time outside. One of my besties came in town so Friday night a group of us headed out for Sushi then we headed off to a patio for many GREAT LAUGHS! Bex had 3 different photo shoots this weekend that I helped with...no complaints....we always have fun doing this....I love her creativity and seeing her passion for photography. I tried to get some sun while helping her. I am about as white as piece of paper. Im not really complaining because I have decided that SUPER DARK just isnt for me.....I just want a fresh clean color....sunkissed!! Saturday night we headed off for Mexican (imagine that...haha) with all our girls....well most of our girls.

Heather (black shirt) is preggers with Haven....we cant wait for her to get here!!

Well Monday has greeted us again and I hope that its a fast week!! Happy Monday!

Im Alive

I know I have not posted in a while but trust me I have still been reading all of yalls posts daily! There has been so much going on between work and life---but that is another post in itself. I have even been tossing around the idea of shutting this blog down bc well as you can see it has been abandoned for weeks now. Its really just my daily ramblings in life.

Anyways with that being said...my blog is still up and running....just lacking a little attention from me. I wanted to be sure and share with yall though that if you have not purchased and read Angie Smith's book I Will Carry You please stop what you are doing....go to your local bookstore......and grab a copy!!! You WILL NOT be disappointed! I read this book in 2 days....I stayed up both nights until around 1am bc I refused to put it down. You can also visit Angies blog (Im sure you may already follow her) but I know some of my friends dont so incase you do not either stop by and pay her blog a visit!

Angie had her 5th baby girl last night---Charlotte! Im so happy for  the Smith family.

Happy Thursday!

Fill In The Blank Friday

Happy Friday!! I dont know about yall but Im super excited that the weekend has greeted us! If yall wanna join Fill In the Blank Friday then go HERE and link up.....never hurts to let your blogging friends now more about you.

1) The first thing I do in the morning is hit the snooze button. Yes, I do this for about 30 minutes {Im not a morning person} I then get up use the bathroom and take Lola outside.

2) Every night before bed I wash my face....set my alarm and turn on my Tv until I cant keep my eyes open any longer.

3) My favorite thing to do when Im having a bad is well it really depends on the day and how bad. Lets see...somedays I may want to come home...crawl in the bed with my doggies and turn on my favorite movie. Sometimes I just want to paint or do something crafty. Other times I may want to go shopping with friends.....I guess it just depends on my mood but I usually do one of these.

4) Something that makes me cringe would be snakes and mice. Yikes....just the thought makes my toes curls. yuck yuck yuck!!!

5) Social Situations make me happy!! I love interacting with people!!

6) I like to collect cookbooks!! I also have a huge collection of pictures.....I love pictures!!!! I also have a huge collection of crosses.

7) Weekends are for doing whatever it is I want!! Sometimes I want to do nothing and flat out relax.....other times I want to work on projects or just get out and about.

Hope yall have a WONDERFUL weekend!!
