I am super-duper excited!
I had the most fabulous weekend & hope that all of you did as well!
getting to visit with both Wesley's and my family is a rare occasion
but it's great when it happens!
only one little family missing :(
but THEY will be in Mississippi next weekend {YAY!}
and we will get to see them over the long labor day weekend!
Anybody have plans for celebrating labor day?
marking the end of summer is a sad occasion for me
{because I LOVE scorching HOT days in the South}
so I'm thinking of banning celebrations! I kid, I kid!
besides there will be PLENTY hot, humid days to come this year...
here are some shots I took while hanging out with the fam.





In other exciting news...
in this post I showed off how much I fell in LOVE with
Emily Henderson's skills on this season's Design Star.
After I posted on her blog she wrote me a kind email.
It is so cool that she took the time to personally write me an email. :)
It makes me love her even more; and that she actually read this little ole blog is like - WOW!
So, just know that all of you are reading the same blog
that has been read by the likes of HGTV's next HOST!
because oh yes. SHE WON!
Be sure to check out Emily next Sunday night on HGTV - Secrets From a Stylist.

another thing that makes me REALLY EXCITED:
Glee's "co-creator" (or original master mind
before Ryan Murphy got his genius hands on it)
Ian Brennan

Beautiful photos! I am visiting from BlogFrog and would love to follow you but I don't see a place to do so.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. And how cool is it that Emily contacted you? I missed this season's design star. Even with a DVR recording the season I just didn't have the time to watch television this summer. I'm bummed. I'm hoping for a marathon soon.
ReplyDeletecould that little dress have something to do with something else you're 'cookin'???????
ReplyDeletecould all the slater girls soon be mammas.
