Happy November!

We celebrated the hubby's and a good friend's birthday this evening.  Lots of fun was had at these two milestone birthdays.



Rebecca and her family are like our own.  She, her husband and four kids came over to celebrate with a birthday dinner, cake, and a game of trivia.  It's always girls against the boys, and normally the girls win.  Not so, tonight.  The boys pulled one off.

Today would have also been my mom's birthday.  We usually celebrated both her and Jim on this day. 

Can't make a post without a house update......
 We are really happy with the way the outside is looking.

I made a trip to downtown Knoxville this morning in search for a vanity for the upstairs bonus bathroom.  Knox Rail Salvage did not disappoint. The base is solid wood, with soft close drawers and the top is a granite look cultured marble.
 Made, what I hope is, our last decision for the house.  We chose a stone look vinyl for the upstairs bathroom floor. We had a similar floor in our current bonus bath and have been satisfied with it.  With the little wear this room will get, it is a great budget friendly choice.
And just for fun.....have you tried the Colorstreet nail stickers?
I'm hooked.  I've never been one to paint my nails although I've always thought pretty nails were so nice.  These are sold by individuals or online.  They are so easy!  No waiting afterwards and they come off with regular nail polish.  Unless your nails are pretty long there is enough in one pack for two manicures. Of course not all the selections are this wild, but I was feeling a little *fancy* when I picked these. They last from about 7-14 days, and on my toes lasted more like a month. Ulta sells a similar brand.

Thanks for stopping by!
