I LOVE my bed

We bought a King size bed a few months ago and I must say that I LOVE IT!!!  A couple weeks after we bought the mattress we found the headboard/footboard at the RCWilley Clearance Center for a REALLY good deal!  It is fun to have a real bed for the first time in my life...we have always just had a mattress on a bed frame.  It looked LOTS better before we had to add the queen mattress and box spring behind the headboard!  The girls got twin beds so we have an extra queen mattress and the only place to put it was against the wall behind out bed....one day we will have a bigger house and will be able to put it somewhere else!!

My new bed!!

This is a close-up of the detail on our comforter.  I LOVE this comforter set we found at Bed Bath and Beyond.  It was exactly what I have been looking for.  I want to paint a canvas with this pattern to put on the wall behind our bed (we'll see how long it takes me to get that done!).

Ready For FOOTBALL!!!!

Sammy had cupcake balls instead of a cake this year.  I would love to say I made them but I didn't.  My extremely talented friend Brooks made them for me!

My baby is six today.  She has been waiting for this day for a long time.  I think her party was planned for a year!!  She wanted a tea party so that is what we did.  When Sammy's guests arrived we made crowns, bracelets, and picked out some other jewelry.  The girls LOVED it!  After everyone was all ready for the tea party, we feasted on sandwiches, chips, watermelon, cashews, mints, cucumbers, and carrots.  The tea was Sammy's favorite drink...PINK Lemonade!  We were able to have Brooks come and help us out for the party and we are so thankful she was there!  It was a little crazy at times!!  Thanks for all the friends that made Sammy's party fun.

FRUSTRATION

Remember the post awhile back about the excitement at our house because the bank had finally accepted an offer on our house......yeah....it was a good day....now they have taken that back!  I hate it!!  Now they keep wanting more and more out of us and it is getting very frustrating.  I just keep praying and hoping that it will all work out in the end.  I really wish the bank would make up their mind and see that we really can't afford to stay where we are so we are trying our best to take care of things.
