Life Happens.

If that isn't the truth I don't know what is. And when life happens, at least lately, this is what it looks like right now! My bedroom is feeling the brunt of life. While I spend day after day keeping other spaces clean, my poor bedroom has been neglected.


So over the weekend I decided enough is enough. It only took a couple hours and I feel so much better looking and sleeping here.


I've been searching for a long and skinny window basket for a long time now and *finally* found one! I want it to hold all my misc. odd-sized mini albums. (This is an idea I got from Ali Edwards a long time back!)
While I was in the spirit of organizing and cleaning I thought I would finally take my mom up on her offer to decorate her bathroom. Her and my dad recently replaced the old linoleum flooring with beautiful tile.

My mom gave me a budget and I had a ball! (Isn't it always great to spend someone else's money! haha) So I went to my most favorte store, Marshall's/Homegoods. I love the random decor findings and the great prices.
So I got this beautiful mirror for only $30...and the cute frames of course to add some family to the scene.

Also, I *had to add* a wall vinyl! I bought this one at Kohl's. Isn't it the cutest!? And it was so easy to apply.

(PS - I haven't scheduled my Uppercase Living party yet and will be sure to let you know when I do)
Here's a closer look at the wall decor. I fell in love with these butterflies and the different textures too!

Lastly, over the weekend we celebrated a huge birthday! Nana's 75!

Isn't she beautiful? Lots of quality time with family and kiddos catching up, playing capture the flag, and eating ice cream cake!
