What we do when we are just around the house doing our normal thing.
Our lovely patio
Last night we sat out back on our new patio. We got the pavers from our friends Lori and Donny and we finally got them installed! They look awesome – our patio is so much bigger. I also found some fun
MTV’s VMAs
I don\’t usually watch the VMAs since I don\’t know anything about the videos. Does MTV really play videos anymore? But I saw they were going to be on and I figured we could watch.
I wasn\’t really
Duke and Goblin love new toys
Whenever we go out of town, we always buy Duke and Goblin a new toy. They are so cute – they get all excited and play with the new toys for a few minutes. Then they plop down and start licking them.
what is the best vacuum?
We would love your opinions! Â We go through vacuums way too fast and I\’m sick of spending hundreds of dollars to have them last a year or less. Â Several Hoovers and a Eureka later – we need another
Baby Morgan
Our friends Lisa and Zach welcomed their baby girl Morgan Elizabeth on July 8th. Since we were out west, we missed visiting them in the hospital. But we stopped by the other day and it was nice since
Mockingbirds
We planted a baby Oak we found growing in our front yard a few years ago – and it is now about 10-12 feet tall. I had my first bird\’s nest in it this year – a family of Mockingbirds.
Look at that
Goblin got a haircut
Look at how cute Goblin is with his new haircut!
Kiersten and Jed’s wedding
We rarely go to weddings as guests, but we did at Kiersten and Jed\’s and it was fun! I still brought my cameras, but I wore a dress and heels and everything!
I took this photo of Chris looking handsome
New Tile Floor
We finally got around to putting in new tile in the living room and bedroom. We need to take some photos showing the finished product – but this is our stack of tile from Home Depot. I can\’t say it
Ducks in the driveway
This family of ducks has been touring the neighborhood every day. The sad part is every day there seems to be one less baby – there were about 6 or 7 to start with. But that is how it works so I try
Goblin and my visor
When I walk during the day I wear a visor to keep the sun out of my eyes – I thought it would be funny to put it on Goblin today!
Isn\’t he cute?

Chi Omega Tea
We had our annual Chi O tea at Trish\’s Tea in Baldwin Park. This place is awesome – and I had to buy the lemon chiffon tea. I love loose tea and it is so hard to find. I was really happy to learn about
Yellow Rose Bouquet
I decided to play with some yellow roses I bought at Fresh Market. They have the best prices on flowers by the way – much cheaper than Publix or Albertson\’s! Check them out next time you are there.
What a self portrait!
My dad sent me an email with tons of incredible photos of airplanes. One of my favorites was this self portrait. I love that his name tag says “photographer” under his name. What a great job that guy
Whole Foods opens in Orlando
Today was the long awaited grand opening of Whole Foods in Orlando. Lucky for us – it is so close we could ride our bikes there! The only other Whole Foods in town is in Winter Park – about 30 minutes
Chris just saved a Mockingbird
We were about to go ride bikes when Chris yelled “Oh no” with a sad voice. I asked him what it was and he said a Mockingbird had just been hit by a car out front. The other Mockingbird kept hoping around
A Night out with Melissa
We went out one night for dinner with Melissa (she loves food as much as I do – can you believe it?!) and it was so funny to talk about the food and the taste and what they used to make it, etc. I didn\’t
