Daily Dash


We haven't had one of these in awhile.
Not a great one of me but a cute one of him.

Ah...Madison in the summer.

Bathroom Rejuvenation

Well, I won't call it a complete remodel or anything but Jimmy and I tackled the downstairs bathroom a few weekends ago. Did I take before pictures?....NO....of course not. I thought about those well into the paint drying and the new light fixture going up but bear with me.

Picture this....Sicily 1945. Kidding. Picture a wooden oak vanity with no knobs, round lights with gold accents and boring white walls.

The vanity itself is the same. We sanded, painted and added knobs which saved us a lot of money.
We have a few more things to do and it will be complete. We have ordered a frame for the mirror from Mirror Mate.com and it should arrive soon. It is black. I love the new look for cheap.

One month from today....aloha!

In one month I will set out on my dream trip....Oahu. Jimmy and I are headed to Hawaii. This will be our first trip there and really my first tropical trip. My second, if you count Key West. But to me Hawaii is more tropical.

I am so excited about the trip and really can't believe we are going. The only thing I am not crazy about is flying by myself. The trip is half conference/half vacation. Jimmy is going down earlier to start one of two conferences. So me by my lonseome will be flying solo 9 hours from Chicago. I am sure you feel real sorry for me, right? I should be fine. I was thinking about my plane list the other day and realized I am much like a child on a plane. I need lots of activities to keep me occupied. Books, movies, games, camera........I even thought about buying a portable dvd player.....haha.

Well that is all for now. Hope everyone is having a nice summer!!
