We Broke...

It's official. I finally broke. After my hot, sweaty, sleepless night Sunday night, I threw in the proverbial white towel.

I couldn't take it anymore. Called up my mama and declared..."I CAN'T TAKE IT ANYMORE!!!! WE'RE SLEEPING THERE TONIGHT!"

And she was all, "Yes. Of course. Calm down."

And I was all, "Can't...hear...you...dying. Of heat stroke." *croak*

Thankfully I lived. And so, after going dress shopping with my bestie and her wedding crew (eeeeeek!!!) (she said "Yes!!" To the dress!!!!) (eeeeeeek!!!!! again!) I joined up with my children and slept in the cool comfort of my parent's basement.

Sorta brought the whole "grown up and living in your parent's basement" thing to life. Gah. Thankful I can go back to my sweltering house today and that this basement living thing was just temporary.

In other weather related news, it turns out Georgia stole our weather. So, if you see Georgia, please tell them Minnesota wants their weather back. These endless 90 degree days are for the birds.

One week from today my kiddos start school. 

Excuse me while I go cry...

  1. We have had crazy weather here in TN, not typical for August at all. Looks like this coming week will heat up some, but usually it's sweltering around this time of year. It's been very almost fall like in the low 80's.

  2. Yes...to what the The Pink Growl said. It has been so weird here in TN. I don't mind much, though. Fine by me!

  3. South Carolina must have stolen it too. We have been in the mid 80's and not to much humidity. We have really enjoyed it. Especially after the 3 digit summer we had last year. Thanks for sharing. lol

  4. Texas hasn't stolen anyone's weather...but it's sure clinging to it's own! I'm dreaming we have 4 seasons down here. Unfortunately, it's just dreams. (Boo!)

Coming soon...

Come here looking for the tutorial? It can be found here:  Halo Braid Tutorial!  Let me know how it goes! I had something in mind to try on Baby Girl's hair the other day...my best bud, Dr. J, did something similar to it on Belle once, and I was trying to replicate it. Instead, I got this: Isn't it pretty?! It didn't take nearly as long as it looks and isn't nearly as intricate as it looks! Vlog tutorial coming soon...(for those of you waiting, I'm sorry it's taking me so long!)

Halo Braid Tutorial!

How appropriate, "halo braid", no?! ;) Finally, I have this ready for you...I apologize for the delay! This braid looks intricate, but is really quite easy and quick to pull off...the original video (prior to the warp speed braiding...watch the video to see what I mean) was just a bit over 8 minutes long...not too shabby! So, here you go...right in time for you to try it out on your little girl for Easter!

You! Yes, YOU!! You must stop whatevertheheck it is that you are doing, and make this recipe. Right now. Tonight. Well...wait. You should probably finish reading this post first...you know...so you know how to make it... But then...STOP! STOP everything, make this, and thank me later! Oh, hold it...wait just a sec (again)...actually, I got this recipe from Melissa...yes, the Melissa of this story ! And this story ...which, well...is the same story, just told two different ways! ;) So, you can thank her...I guess. Well, in any event...prepare your tastebuds to be tantalized! You'll need this: And, this: You'll also need chicken breasts or steak, but since photographing your "main ingredient" is, like, soooo passe, I've left it out. ( Ahem... ) Just keepin ' up with the times, friend. So...slice up those peppers and onions into cute little strips... And...try your best to not slice up the little fingers that are sneaking away pepper strips... (Lemme just inte
