Things I'm Lovin' Right Now

I'm lovin' these beautiful blue hydrangeas picked with love from my parent's yard!


I'm lovin' my new "catch all" area!


I'm lovin' this hand cream that I read about in InStyle...it makes your hands feel super-soft and it smells UH-MAZING!


I'm lovin' my new Ikat fabric that will soon be hanging in my kitchen...Mrs. Etta is whipping me up some panels for my bay windows and I can hardly wait to get them in my house!!


I'm lovin' Bethenny's new flavors for the summer!  I tried her new Pina Colada last week and it was great...I can't wait to open this bottle of White Peach Margarita!


I'm lovin' "Henrietta" that Sister gave me...she definitely makes my front door more friendly!


I'm lovin' my newly re-organized pantry!  A HUGE thanks to Aunt Jenn for working her organizational magic!


I'm lovin' Downton Abbey...it's a wonderful show and if you haven't watched it, I HIGHLY recommend it!


I'm always lovin' my LibbyLicious!  She is the happiest baby EVER!



And on this Mother's Day, I'm especially lovin' my Momma...Happy Mother's Day to all you mothers out there! :)

DB's Dance Recital

Sunday afternoon, DB had her end of the year recital at the Alabama Theater in downtown B'ham.  Back in the day, I had many dance competitions at the same place...so y'all know I was a little sentimental at her performance.  I cried off and on from the minute we stepped inside to the time we left.  I know she's not my child, but I love her like she is...I sat on the second row of the huge auditorium and smiled from ear to ear throughout the performance.  And when she stopped mid-performance at the front of the stage to wave to us, I stood up and waved back like the crazy aunt that I am!  Yes, I was that person.   :)

*I apologize for the poor colors in some of the pictures...the lighting was not the best, so I did the best I could...sorry!


The last time I danced in this theater I think I was wearing neon orange spandex and dancing to John Travolta!



Even the programs made me cry!



Our little "wood sprite" was ready to perform!


Here she goes!!




After her performance, Sister and Blake gave her some beautiful pink tulips!!



Our little ballerina!




Two very proud grandparents!


This one is going in a frame!


DB, I LOVED watching you dance at your recital.  You were the cutest woodland fairy ever!  And just like I said to you last year at your recital, I hope you enjoy dance as much as I always did...love you!
