Basement Reno

There has been quite a few changes in our basement bathroom that I wanted to share with you lovely ladies:)  I have to give credit where credit is due and give all of this to my wonderful, fantastically handy hubby!!!  He has been working his butt off and still is.

I knew that I wanted to have a teal, gray, and white color scheme for our basement.  I wanted to carry this color scheme throughout our whole basement, especially since most of it would be open to the other rooms.  I heart the crisp, fresh, and bright feeling that teal packs:)  Teal is, as you may already know, my favorite color of the year!!

After a lot of convincing the hubby that the color would look FAB on the walls, we ended up with this shade.  When it was first on the walls, I was like OMG, holy brightness, where's my shades!?!?!  Then after a while of getting used to the color, I wouldn't change it.  I have to thank the hubby bunches for letting me keep this color because he isn't a fan.  He always says whatever makes you happy:)  Isn't he the sweetest!?!?!  (Cue the Awwww's)  Plus, you know that guys usually don't have a knack for decorating!

Can see the paint color a little better here!

Our thermometer for our in floor heat:)

Adding a Touch of Spring!

Hey everybody!!!  I hope you had a fantastic Monday and are ready for Tuesday:)  Today, I was surprised to see my new BirchBox in the mail!!!  There are some great goodies and things that I will love to try out.  Once I try out the products, I will let you know how I like them.

Enough about BirchBox, I wanted to show you my fabulous, springy pin wheels that I made:)  I've been seeing them every where and decided why not make my own.  It still hasn't found a home yet, but I'm sure it soon will be!

So Springy!

Weekend Update!

This weekend has been a busy one!  We went to our niece's 1st birthday party, saw the in-laws,  and hubby's friends and got our camper out of storage!  Plus, once we came home from the in-laws, we had things to do for school or for work.  We have been pretty busy!

I just wanted to share a quick post with you by showing you some pictures of what we did!

Guess whose birthday it was?

Extra cute cake:)

Growing into Something Special!

This week has seriously just flew by!  I don't know where it went...   It seems like I never have enough time to do everything that I would like to do at night after work!  I'm behind on blogging and things at school, oh well.  I'm sure I'll eventually get caught up.

Once the hubby came home tonight, he helped me (scratch that) planted our Robinson Crabapple tree:):):)  I don't know why I'm super duper excited about this!  Maybe it's because of the beautiful flowers that we'll have during the Spring time!    I call it our Easter tree because we bought shortly after Easter.

It will be neat being able to see our tree grow throughout the years that we are at our house.  I think, it will  symbolize the growth our family. We got married July of last year, and hopefully(soon), crossing our fingers and toes, we will be trying for a baby!

Anywho, I wanted to share with you some pics of what it will look like in probably 20 years or so...LOL!

~Our Future Tree~

 Our tree, as of today:)

It has a LONG way to go!

Chocolate Covered Chips

Just a quick post for today, I wanted to share with you the chocolate covered chips that I made.  I discovered this yummy recipe from Grateful Belly!

They were easy and delicious.  It just takes a little bit of time.  I found in order to add the white chocolate to the chips you need to have an icing bottle to squeeze the white chocolate onto the chips.

My first couple chips I choose to use a spoon to drizzle the white chocolate on the chips.  That didn't work out so well, the white chocolate was uneven and didn't look the best.  So, that's when I whipped out the icing bottles.  I would suggest doing the same thing if you choose to add white chocolate to your chocolate covered chips.

They were delish!

My little helper:)

Well, that's all that I have for today!  You can check out the recipe/how to for these chips on the Grateful Belly:) 

Hope you all have a fantastic Thursday!!!  We are soo close to the weekend...woohooo!!!  

Thanks for stopping by:):):)

Until next time!!!!

What I'm Loving Wednesday!

Hey Y'all!  It seems like it's been FOREVER since I posted anything...sorry:-/  I've been surprisingly pretty busy during the Easter break that I had off and didn't find much time to blog!  So, I'm back!!!  First of all, I hope that all you had a wonderful Easter vaca:)  I sure did!  It was busy, busy, busy, but great fun with family and friends with a touch of spring cleaning!!!

I'm linking up to the fabulous site of Little Daisy May blog for What I'm Loving Wednesday!!!  This week I have many things that I'm loving as usual:)

I'm loving my new nails that I just did last night!  I love the blue and fuschia together:)  Aren't they pretty!

Sparkles:)

I'm loving these outfits that I put together on Polyvore!
This first one is a wear at work!  Red and black is a classic color combo...you really can't go wrong with that.

Flower Power!

Happy Friday everyone!!!!  I had such a fabulous Friday because I got to hang out with one of my best friends and we went shopping and did more shopping.  Plus, we had couples date night tonight at Famous Dave's!  I had a mean strawberry spiked lemonade, it sure was tasty:):)

These past couple days, I have been spending more and more time outside trying to get our flower beds ready for summer.  I've also been watching my lilac bush start to bud and bloom into some lovely and fragrant flowers.  I can't tell you how much I LOVE lilac's. 

So, yesterday I decided to pick a couple bouquets of flowers and put them in vases throughout our house and today I gave one bouquet to my friend.  She loved them!

I wanted to share with you all, all of my Spring/flower pictures that I have been snapping throughout this week:)  I hope you enjoy them as much as I do!!!

My bouquets after I picked them:)

 They are just soo pretty and I LOVE the smell of them!  I don't think the hubby is loving them so much, but oh well, I do:):)
