School's Out For Summer!!


In our area school will get out at 12:30 today and it is officially SUMMER!!

I love. love. love Summer and it seems to take longer to get here every year!!
#hurryupsummer

This is what I would like to do ALL Summer!
Are you a beach person or a mountain vacation person?


   
This year's beach hat is fro the Dollar Spot at Target!

I'm Team BEACH all the way!

We are not sure where we are going yet!!
I can't believe I just wrote that! 

We have been waiting to see if perhaps, just maybe, our condo that was flattened
 last Fall by the hurricane might, just maybe, be ready by July.

Nope. 

I'm headed out to spend my June 
living out of a backpack on Mission trips but believe me - Mollie is on it!!
She is a researcher extraordinaire and she is determined to find our little July spot
 in a paradise somewhere. :)

We are going to (practically) throw a dart at Florida, 
find a place to hang our (beach) hats 
and have an adventure!

Maybe it will be as funny as the one I talked about here.

Where are you going this Summer? 
Like, I really want to know! 
I want to know about great places to visit!!
So dish!!

One Room Challenge. It's A Biggie! Week 6.

Week 6 is Reveal Week. 

One Room ChallengeĆ¢„¢

I have been missing from the ORC since Week 2.
#insertsadface

Sadly, I had to step away due to situations beyond my control. 
Two different out of town trips, new responsibilities at my "day job" 
and an unexpected hospital stay for Mollie (she's on the mend!)
meant the room had to take a back seat. 
Another challenge with this challenge was that it was not at my house - it's a 30 minute drive. 
On a good Atlanta traffic day!

But I am determined to finish this room for the clients to enjoy.
I have a storage room full of goodies I'm planning to use!
I will post on my Instagram when I get going again and when I complete it!
I hope you will follow along on IG and see how it all finishes up!



My previous, completed ORC's are my entryway,  my guest bedroom (again),  my master bathroom, our library (formerly a dining room)mollie's bathroom - a fun mother/daughter project, and my first ORC, my guestroom - the first time, many lessons learned. 
Six One Room Challenges (excluding this failed attempt).
 Five rooms greatly improved and now functioning beautifully for the way we live. 
I'm still a fan of the ORC - such a great motivator!


And now I'm going to work my way through all the inspiring rooms
that are completed!!
