This post brought to you by BMO Harris Bank N.A. Member FDIC. All opinions are 100% mine. My husband and I bought our first and only home in the fall of 2007. We didn't renew our apartment least and moved into my parent's house that summer while we began the process of house hunting. We were planning on five years in the house, but wanted something that could last us longer, if that is where life took us.

A DIY Shirt With a Special Touch
I am so excited about this project. As soon as I finished I texted a picture to my mom and my friend and anyone who would listen.

Seemed like just the right size for my plant and very affordable. Much better, right? Man! I don't know why it ...
Broken Frame to Instagram Display
This is a sponsored post written by me on behalf of Glaceau fruitwater®. I was working on my Fourth of July mantle. My husband, Ross, was watching me fill frames and work on my display. As he watches me sprawled out on the floor filling frames he walks right on a frame. Yup, steps right on the glass. Despite watching me work, it didn't seem to register that he should walk around. I had just taken the art out so it was just the glass, hard to see no doubt...but he seriously just watched me ...
