MERRY CHRISTMAS {in July} from me to YOU!

New Lovelies + A List

First, check out these lovely new headbands that are going in the shop today.

Adorable and affordable! A must have for back to school.

Second, you must know that I am loving summer and the thought of its end kind of turns my stomach. So...I made a list of things that must happen before school begins and I have to leave my little sweet peas for work.{sniff}


 
What's on your list?

Our Stay-cation!

Anyone who knows me know that I love, LOVE vacations. However, this summer we were unable to take one due to various reasons{the biggest being a lack of moo-la}. The good news is that our little staycation weekend was almost as good{i say almost because i still had to clean the house}and we were able to do it with little cash!

First stop...Cherokee, NC! We did a little "fishin'" and some swimmin'! And then ate at a yummy little pizza place called Garlic Knots in Maggie Valley.

Saturday we went to the pool for some fun and then to Shindig on the Green in downtown Asheville were we ate ice cream and listened to some great bluegrass music. Doesn't get much better!

Brunch at Tupelo Honey! Yummy Yum! If you ever get the chance to go, be sure to try the sweet potato pancakes. They're delish!

And last but not least...The Wavebreaker! My sister bought this thing on the super duper sale last summer and let's just say it's been well worth the money! F-U-N!!

 

We had a great weekend staycationing around home sweet home! We made lots of memories and I wouldn't change a thing!

What about you...vacation or staycation?

 

Hot! Hot! Hot!

This heatwave is an excellent excuse to pamper your ever faithful sunglasses! They deserve it after all of their hardwork and loyalty to those pretty little eyes of yours. And I know just how to do it...

With one of these sweet little Shade Pouches from the shop!

This weekend only with any purchase from the shop, you'll get a pair of Rosette Bobbies as a BONUS! Cute huh?

Oh yeah...there's also a nice little discount that can be found here!

Stay Cool!{both in temp. and in style}

Insta Friday Minus the Insta #3

I'm slowly getting used to the fact that it's gonna be a while until I finally get my very own iPhone. So until then I will continue to use FX Camera for Android{which is still kinda cool} and snap pics throughout the week that may entertain you for a short period of time. HAPPY FRIDAY!!

Hey Guys!

It's good  to be two!

Grow little pumpkin!

I'm just that cool!

Booty Ruffles

I found it!

Cheese!



Life is SO good!



Just Peachy

Who can resist a juicy, ripe peach?? My belly has been full of delicious peaches for days after a stop by the local farmers market {by my father-in-law who is always bringing us treats}.

I've been peeling and snacking like crazy buy I still have lots of them left over and I wanted to use them before they get all squishy!

This is a first for me...today I'm gonna share a super easy, calorie free{wink}Peach Cobbler recipe.

Here's a few simple ingredients:

*peaches

*1 cup of milk

*1 cup of flour

*1 cup of sugar

*1/2 cup of butter

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place the butter in an 8x8 glass baking dish and melt in the oven.

Meanwhile, peel and pit your peaches. Tip: After you peel them, push your thumb in the top where the stem would be and split them with your hands. This makes getting the pit out a lot easier!

Mix the flour and sugar together and then add the milk and stir.

Slice the peaches and place them in the bottom of the buttered dish.

Pour flour, sugar, and milk mixture over the top of the peaches and bake for about 50 minutes!

Enjoy!
