As I mentioned on Friday, we were scraping our master bedroom ceiling this past weekend. So guess what? We also decided to paint the walls while we were at it. I wanted a grey room yet again, but the hubs said no more grey (we don’t even have a grey wall in the house yet!)….

DIY Tutorial – Glossing over a new fad called Chalk Paint

August 13, 2013 by Kara 5 Comments

I have been scouring the earth Knoxville for a serpentine style dresser I could call my own, meaning it couldn’t cost me a fortune. I was in luck when Missy’s Treasures posted a beautiful serpentine dresser in white to her page that was just my size and price tag (cheaper than our awesome Ikea dresser). I…

Moonlit Walk in Cades Cove

July 22, 2013 by Kara 2 Comments

Disney Fantasy | Eastern Caribbean | St. Thomas Port

July 15, 2013 by Kara 1 Comment

The week that we booked for our cruise happened to be the Fantasy’s Itinerary B for Eastern Caribbean, which meant that instead of stopping at St. Maarten first and then St. Thomas, we got to stop at St. Thomas and San Juan. We were glad that we did the alternate itinerary because we fell in…
