Summa Time

This summer is going by entirely too fast.  I just read Jen Hatmaker's post on surviving summer and I laughed until I cried.  As a working mom who enjoys summers at home with her kiddos, I long for the days of summer to drag on and on.  Call me crazy, but I kind of like sleeping until 10 am and doing whatever I please all day, err day.  But I digress.  Summer is whizzing by me at lightning speed and I hate it.  This month is filled with trips, conferences, VBS, dentist's appointments, check ups, you name it.  I had a big list of projects to complete this summer and I've got lots left to do.  I did complete this though....

Before

After

I used Annie Sloan Chalk Paint on this desk.....I might write a blog about that later:-)



I have more projects to show, but I'll save those for another post.

Another change I made was my hair color. 

I went from this

To this

 
The auburn you see is close to my natural color.  She also put a darker shade to frame my face, which has kind of thrown me for a loop.  I can't quite get used to it.  I love the richness of the color, though and of course it looks smoking hot in these photos because my girl Britany had just worked her magic.  I assure you, it looks nowhere near this good in my everyday life....much to my dismay.  I have had people tell me I look older, which makes any girl's day so......the blonde may make a come back.  We'll see on August 1st.

I have lots more to write about.  We had a wonderful time at church camp this year and want to share some of what took place there.  However, it's 1:32 am so that will have to wait until next time.
