You say "Shop?"... I say "Way ahead of ya!"

Today's topic is to share our favorite shops... Confession time... 
I have never ordered anything off of Etsy. Let that sink in. I know it's pretty crazy. So, in following Jenni's advice about making each subject your own, I am going to indulge ya'll in my favorite online shopping. 

New York and Co.

Ya'll probably remember my woes back in January when our store in Evansville closed, but never fear, I have taken to ordering things online. I know their sizing well, so that makes me feel at ease ordering clothing online. (Which is something I NEVER do!)

This is my go-to site for ordering various sizes of prints, photo books, and Chistmas cards. A lot of times they offer free promotions and all you have to pay is the shipping! Coincidentally I jut ordered 2 photo books tonight and they were both completely FREE! Jealous? You should be! ; ) The shipping wasn't that bad either! I love me some pictures! 

Pinterest 

No, this isn't a store... It's more. I get all kinds of ideas and inspirations of things I want to buy and make.  Many are even things much beyond my current means. A girl has the right to dream though -!: if you wanna check out my dream home, you can check out my "home improvement" board! I'm themrs610 on Pinterest! 

On a side note, we are melting at our house tonight! Our conditioning is out and it is currently 86 degrees in our house. (We hope and pray it'll be an inexpensive fix!) After all we've had going on, I'm ready to throw myself a little pity party! Anybody wanna join?

Family room re-do featuring.... my curtains! : )

For a while now, we've planned on finally finishing our family room.  That's right, it's kind of been unfinished for the entire time we've lived there.  It was painted and decorated, just no molding and the ceiling was hideous because we (and by we, I mean Zach) took down the drop ceiling the previous owners had put up.  So, anyway, I looked at curtains and didn't really find anything I liked, so I decided I was going to make my own.  Zach and I looked at Jo-Ann's a couple times and each time we looked I liked this fabric more and more.  It was the most expensive fabric I've ever bought, but in the end, it was sooooo worth it! (*Note- I bought the fabric in January before NSM! : )) Here we are at Mama Joyce's one day after church cutting the panels.  I think we were all nervous to cut it.  It was too costly to mess up! Fast forward a couple weeks because I didn't have time, was lazy, and also scared to sew on it, and I finally just delved in an...

Valentine's Weekend

Zach and I seemed to stretch out Valentine's day for the whole weekend! On Friday night we had pizza ordered in (pineapple and mushroom, my FAVORITE, Thanks honey!) Then on Saturday, Zach took me to downtown Henderson to Memories, a little antique shop, and bought me a McGuffey reader to add to my collection! After that, we went to Bed, Bath, and Beyond in Evansville and Zach bought me a back massage machine that goes in the chair! It does shiatsu massage and feel wonderful! He jokes that now he won't ever have to give me massages anymore, but that's not true! Then we went back to his house, and he opened his present from me, a balance thing that measures reloading stuff for guns! As you can guess, I don't exactly know what it is, I just said, "Pick something out unless you want some new polos." Motivates him every time! Today after church and lunch at Mama Joyce's we rushed to the west side of Evansville and went to the movies! We saw "When ...

Ten on Thursday

1. This week on Tuesday Elizabeth an I got to go to Cheddar's! The best part was we didn't have to wait because we went so early! 2. I have been sewing a skirt and the last step was to shir the skirt so it would cinch up and be elastic-y. It sounds all well and good until it didn't work! I realized I needed a bigger needle for my machine, so yet another trip to Jo-Anns was needed. Then I got home and I still couldn't get it to work just right. Ugh, I need some help! 3. Poor Zach had to work or be in class every single night this week, which has sucked, since we haven't gotten to see each other much at all. I missed him so much, but thankfully his schedule is better for next week! 4. This week has been so slow! It goes that way sometimes with 4 day weeks, so I am ready for the weekend. 5. Friday was our friend Ryan's birthday, so I went out to eat with he and Kayleigh since Zach was working. 6. Working out is going good and have lost another 3 lbs, whi...
