Pink Heaven

 

Last week was my birthday.... Another year gone. My husband's cousin took me to lunch and we stopped at a few thrift stores. I couldn't believe my luck. I entered pink dish heaven💕 

 

I found so many beautiful pink dishes. I'm totally in love with them. I'm guessing someone either passed away and they had a lot of pink or someone grew tired of them. But I got a whole set of these plates, salad plates and butter plates. No bowls but I will keep my eyes open.

 

I couldn't leave them behind! I was so happy. A little birthday blessing.

 

My daughter also went with me to the consignment shop on my birthday. We weren't as successful there. But it was fun.

 

In other news the house is in the last stages! I'm hoping by next week to be finished! 

 

My husband started on the door knob installation.

 

And half of the appliances were delivered! Yes I really bought pink appliances! I never grow tired of the color. While others are changing everything and getting rid of there pink I'm only loving it more.

I do hope you are all well. 

Blessings and Love,

Kitchen Finds

Good morning! I thought I would share a little of my kitchen finds. I got these Pyrex bowls last week at an estate sale for $25.00. I was so excited! 

 

 The knobs in my new kitchen.

My little prayer lady napkin holder. I've had her for years my mom gave her to me for my birthday one year.

 

 So I've started packing just a few things... Things I don't use every day. It's really strange thinking about leaving my childhood home. But I'm excited too. I'm praying the next family will have as many wonderful years here as we have had.

Kitchen Update

 

The kitchen cabinets are mostly installed! They sent the wrong bead board for the back of the island. But they should send a new one out fairly quickly. I'm really happy with how they turned out. 

 

Today they template for the quartz countertops. So the kitchen is really coming together now. We used an old screen door for the pantry. It came off of a house that was being torn down in Winter Park Florida.  I guess I better try to keep the pantry organized! It won't be easy to hide a mess with this door.

Until next time, 

XOXO

Lambie Pie

 

This sweet little package arrived in the mail all the way from Great Britain..... 

 

Inside was this sweet little lambie pie. I love handmade things. This little doll is from the Vanilla Squirrel on Etsy. 

I hope your day is blessed,

XOXO

It's Been A While....

 The last time we talked my nephew was about to get married. Which he did and they have been blissfully wed for 7 months! 

 

And We decided to build a new house and sell this, my childhood home! It wasn't an easy decision but we are now very excited about our new property. It's five acres off of a dirt road in the country.

 

On March 8th we broke ground! It has been a process. But...

 

It's coming along nicely... We decided not to put our current house on the market until after we finish building. But this past Friday we got an offer. So we countered and they accepted. Now we are in the process of finishing our house and packing. Busy is an understatement. I just wanted to pop in an update you all. I do hope everyone is well. I just downloaded an app to blog from my phone so now I can blog anywhere! So expect to see me more often! 

Love, 

XOXO
