Spring...or Did I Just Jinx Myself?

Still here!

Considered leaving but....

Please, please, please go visit Em's running buddy's blog and offer only encouragement:


They will be running their half marathon next Saturday.  Pray that they finish and Emily doesn't poop her pants.  It happens.  They also want a dog to run with them.  It's happened.  Anyone in Wilmington, NC can go out with signs like these:



20 Great Marathon Spectator Signs Too Funny ! :). Hahahahaha let me tell you, I saw some pretty good ones along the way!!!!  :)

Funny sign at Rock n Roll marathon - http://humorandfail.com/funny-sign-at-rock-n-roll-marathon/

Funny Marathon sign. Gotta remember this one



After my week of suck...well, it didn't get better.  We got a buttload of snow.  Hunter was backing out of a driveway, on the phone, drinking coffee, applying mascara when he put his truck in a ditch.  A few swear words later, he was out and trekking up the driveway to get some one to help pull him out. Wham, Bam, Thank You Ma'am, boy down.  They brought him home to me so I could take him to the hospital.  Oh, and we were expecting more snow and ice that evening.  Long story short, he tore his quad at the knee.  Knee, which we were worried about, is fine.  So instead of surgery and a tour around Italy on crutches, he will do therapy twice a week for four/five weeks.  Yay!

Good news:


Still in Em's bath as we are STILL finishing our bathroom


Cute little pockets



My girls are not one for texture but this is so subtle and soft.  Yes, it is very delicate but I will do right by it.  I can do medium or large in sweaters.  Found the large worked best for my 34F wonder twins.  I decided to go with a cardigan because it will get a lot more use.  Really like it.

We are so close to being finished with the bath.  Shower door will be installed tomorrow.  Waiting for the doors...come in this week but they will need to be stained and installed.

  3. I love the wooden shelves. And we have a very similar tile on the first floor-did I say that before? Is that cord for an electric seatwarmer? Fancy
    Can't wait to see more.

    Those signs are hilarious

    1. We purchased a 3" thick by 8' long rough hewn piece of cedar. Turned out perfectly. Several years ago Hunter got me this toilet for Christmas. It's Kohler's version of a Japanese style toilet. Seat is heated, squirts the front, squirts the back, heated water no less, and blow dries...it is wonderful! i love my tile floor, kinda slate, kinda marble, kinda brown, kinda grey, just perfect.

  4. That is a nice potty!
    Those signs are sooo funny. Suck weather leads to accidents. MrBP had a giant piece of ice fall on his head while he was trying to wash our new windows, so I was in emerg with an accident-prone husband too... 5 stitches later he was fine, no concussion thank goodness. We gotta keep an eye on those guys.
    Love that pink sweater on you, so pretty. xo

    1. Just over six months ago, Hunter broke his arm. He jokingly asked if I was over the "mommy" van phase. I replied, "unless I need to start toting around a scooter for some one." He makes me nervous.

  6. Love the bathroom - I've always insisted on a bidet, wherever we've lived, and it stuns plumbers.

    You guys should spend more time in NYC, where it's safe.♥️
