Wall Vinyls

I don't know how many of you are familiar with the newest trend in home decorating, but wall vinyls are all the rage! LOL who says that anymore :) Anyway...we came across this fabulous idea a few months ago when Josh and Brenda were decorating Bailey's nursery. They are relatively cheap, easy to apply, and best of all they can be changed with relative ease. Before the reveal of our new place I picked one out from the same place Josh and Brenda got theirs, but decided to hold off on buying it. Little did I know Jodi had a different plan in mind.

As you can see in this picture, there are 4 wall vinyls in Alexa's room. They are compliments of my sweet sister, and I love them! They are giving the wall vinyl business a try and you can check out some of their other designs here. One of my other favorites is the chalkboard vinyl, I am getting one of those for my refrigerator and I can't wait! I also think the chalkboard would be great to have in Alexa's room for her to color on. I can only imagine what fun she would have with that! The only potential problem there would be keeping her artwork on the vinyl and off the wall!

If you haven't had a chance to check these out, I suggest you do it. They are extremely versatile and can be customized to just about any design you want. What a great alternative to painting!

Catching up...

Since I barely blogged at all in May I figured I would try to post more today than I did that whole month. Just kidding...not that it would be hard :)

A little over a month ago the Chick-o-lay (as Alexa calls it) close to us had Cinderella and Belle one evening taking pictures and signing autographs...things of that nature. I knew Alexa would love it, so I decided to take her as a treat. She really enjoyed it, and she still talks about getting to see them. The only thing she didn't like was that after we spent about 30 minutes in line waiting to see Belle she didn't get to go inside and play on the playground. It was great to see all of the little girls excited to see them, and I can't wait to take her to Disney so she can meet all the characters!

Well...

It has been forever since I last blogged...I really don't know hy. I seem to go through phases where I blog a bunch, and then others where I don't blog at all. Sometimes I think because I upload pics to Facebook that it makes up for the fact that I'm not blogging. I wish blogger would get a better photo uploader...it would make it so much easier! Anyway, I'm back so let me update you...

If you watched the video below you already know that Alexa and I have a new home. Tomorrow will be 4 weeks that we have been there and we absolutely LOVE it! For those of you who live close and would like to see it in person, feel free to come by anytime! We love visitors :)

This past weekend Mimi and I got to go to Meredith's baby shower. We had a great time catching up with everyone there and seeing the great gifts she got for sweet baby Henry! Here are a few pictures from the event.


Lindsey did a phenomenal job with the cake topper and cupcakes...and believe me they tasted just as good as they look...maybe even better!


Here is the beautiful mommy-to-be, doesn't she look fantastic?!


Here we are after the shower...if you didn't know Meredith was pregnant you certainly can't tell from this picture!
Lindsey still thinks she is a princess! LOL!!

I'm not sure which one is sillier, but they seem to get along great :) Well, at least when Alexa will agree to play with Lindsey!

Only a few more days to wait...check back here sometime Sunday or Monday and I'll reveal the completely amazing things that have been going on in my life these past few weeks!
