We wound up getting more than a dusting of snow today. Not MUCH more than a dusting, but enough to make Macey want to get out and play in it a bit. Mickey can never resist playing in snow either, so the two of them set out this afternoon to enjoy what little snow we [...]

It’s been a busy Monday here at our house so far. Nothing out of the ordinary, really, but just staying busy around home. I feel like I’m perpetually in “tidy up” mode around here and nothing every gets clean and stays clean, so that adds to the busy factor. But, hey, it’s better to be [...]

My goodness! August has arrived already. Does this seem surreal to anyone else? I seriously feel that summer has just flown by. It doesn’t seem real to me that school has been out for two months already and is VERY close to starting back again. Wow. We have had an incredible summer and have had [...]

As I mentioned in yesterday’s post, we have recently updated Mariana’s room. Our friends Carey & Traci had a beautiful twin bed that their daughter Allie had outgrown, so they generously gave it to us. Mickey’s dad (aka PePaw to the girls) is going to be building a play-house bed for Macey this summer, so [...]

WOO HOO! It’s Saturday!! We love Saturdays around here because those are typically family days. Today is no exception. This morning Mickey has already been out for a run at the river and now we’re all hanging out at home for awhile. Okay, we’re not “just” hanging out, we’re also tidying up around home. As [...]

I’ve been thinking for awhile that I should post about some of the household products that we use and love in our house. Alright, so LOVE might be a bit strong, but these are definitely some favorites around our home.
Palmolive pure + clear
This is a great dish detergent! It works great even on greasy dishes [...]

I have gotten a good bit done today. Now, granted, the entire house is not clean, but I still managed to get a lot done. For instance, I cleaned some of our downstairs carpet today. I did the half-bath, hallway and family room. Only the study and dining room didn’t get a carpet cleaning today. [...]

Today is a cleaning day in our house. Hopefully I will get a lot done. I have two little “helpers” at home today because it’s Spring Break, but so far they are more interested in the play room and toys than cleaning with me. Go figure. Although, to be fair, they did pick [...]

We are winding down here after a busy weekend.
Yesterday, of course, was a “honey do” day with Mickey and me working on home improvement projects.
Mickey worked SO hard in our kitchen getting the popcorn ceiling down and then having to sand and scrap the texture that was left. That was the dustiest job I have [...]

What I Learned About Popcorn Ceiling Today
Popcorn ceilings aren’t my favorite.
Removing popcorn ceiling material is beyond messy. It is the single dustiest job EVER.
We’re talking dust EVERY.WHERE.
I am still not a fan of popcorn ceilings.
But, I can live with the ones we have left.
The End.
PS: Our ceiling is scraped, but still not painted. That is [...]
