Happy Happenings



How about a little random post about 
all the little tid-bits of happy going on around here?

We have 3 more weeks of school.

We're finishing strong . . . or at least trying to.

We are almost finished with all the extracurricular activities.
Last week the girls finished up their classes at Heritage and had a concert and art show.
 
 They had their piano recital yesterday.


And Tuesday is their last cross-country race.
 

 We love all these fun activities, 
but I'm also thankful for a little more time.

Here's another quick thank you gift idea: 
flower seeds and coffee gift card

We've been drinking LOTS of lattes around here.

Because my hubbie wonderfully spoiled me for Mother's Day!
I have been wanting this bad boy for a LONG time.
Anyone want to come over for a mocha?

I've been doen' a little junkin' in my spare time.

Surprised?
 
My most favorite recent score
is a french bottle drying rack!!
I have been wanting one of these forever too!
I found it at my favorite shop (who just got a new web site- you should check it out).

My hubbie had to do a little modifying
and now it fits just perfectly under the cabinet.

A few of my other fun finds


The set of suitcases went into the shop right away- or else I knew they would find a home in my already full home.
The botanical print is still lingering . . . 
I don't have a spot for it  . . . yet . . .

Well I think I 've caught you up on the latest little happenings around here.

Hope you have a marvelous Monday!

    I love the sweet little seed/coffee gift idea. So perfect. And that coffee cup holder is so cool.
    Enjoy the last 3 weeks of school! (We finished Friday but I have a couple "summer school" ideas to start doing once I feel better.) The learning never stops does it?!

  7. I love lattes...my husband has a fun coffee maker like your beautiful one and me makes me lattes most mornings. I love your coffee sign and my need to look for one like it.

    I really like your teacher gift. I had thought about getting the kids teachers Starbucks gift cards and had thought to put it in a mug but I like the seeds idea.

    Love your new finds. I did some fun shopping this weekend as well.
