Hi there, and Happy Friday! 
I have been off work and away from the “Bucket” all week!
I went against my better judgment and skipped my annual cruise this year. It hurt to skip it, but I think it’ll make the next one even better!
Over this past week, I’ve babysat my nephew, read several new books, worked on my “tan” (I only burn…), and spent some QT here at the pool at my gym.
Hi there, and Happy Friday!
For those of you with kids, it’s back to school time! For my sister-in-law, it means the end of her summer vacation, and time to go back to work! For the rest of us, it’s just August 27th.
In keeping with the back to school spirit, I wanted to share one of my favorite new items for this fall! These three plaques were designed by Deb Strain, and will make their debut in November. I can’t wait to see them!
Have a lovely weekend!

Hello, and Happy Friday!
If you’ve been checking out my blogs every Friday, then you have a pretty good idea of what has been taking up the majority of my time lately: getting ready to move.
I have been painting, cleaning, scrubbing carpets, hanging mini blinds and putting up new curtains. I feel like a contractor! I have a separate set of clothes for “working”, and even a separate set of sneakers.
Hi there, and Happy Friday! 
I will keep my post short and sweet today – literally! Tomorrow, my awesome nephew will be six months old. Can you even believe it?!
Time definitely flies.
He has changed so much! He’s a sturdy little baby, and so strong! Of course, we now call him a “little man” instead of a baby. We wouldn’t want to hurt his feelings…
Hello, and Happy Friday!
Today is my baby brother Jon’s 26th birthday! Can you believe it?
I remember when he was born. My brother Neil and I had to go next door to stay with our grandparents, and I remember being so upset that they wouldn’t give me any sugar to put on my Frosted Flakes. Such drama for a 5 year old!
After he came home, he became my baby doll. Neil was too smart to fall into my traps anymore! I remember dressing Jon up in my doll baby clothes, putting him in my little cradle for my dolls – everything. He made such a beautiful baby doll! To get Neil to play with me, I had to merge my Barbie dolls with his G.I. Joe, but not for Jon! He was always up to do anything with me, and play any game.
I can luckily say that not much has changed!
Hi there, and Happy Friday! 
This week has been such a long week! The Atlanta show has been over for a while now, and the other July shows are starting to wrap up. We’ve been so busy!
I’m always looking for fun ways to unwind and de-stress, and I decided that I would bake this week! As you know, I come from a long line of crazy bakers. Both of my grandmothers loved to bake, and so does my mom. We like to make things from scratch, and of course, we don’t know how to make just one…
Hi there, and Happy Friday!
As most of you know, I’m going to be moving soon! My one aunt has moved, and is going to rent me her old house. She’s giving me a fantastic deal, and it will help me continue to save to buy a house of my own! Since I know my landlord, I am able to paint this house any color I want! Here is a picture of the kitchen after my family helped me paint it. It’s such a sunshine color of yellow – I am happy the minute I walk into that room! The floor still needs replaced, but it’s such a bright room! I’m really looking forward to moving in and cooking and baking up a storm here. We didn’t even have to use drop cloths, since the floor is going to be replaced! Bonus!
Hi there, and Happy Friday!
This is a new sampler from Barbara Lloyd, one of my favorite designers! It won’t be available until November, but I can already tell you that it will have a spot hanging up in my house! We have such a great line of everyday product coming out this fall – I can’t wait for it to hit stores!
Have you checked out the new samplers on our website? I’d love to hear your favorites!
Have a great weekend!
Stay cool!

Hi there, and Happy Friday!
Can you believe it’s already July 9th? I can’t believe how fast the first half of the year flew by. I guess this second half will fly by just as fast!
For this week, I just wanted to share one of my favorite new pieces.
Hi there, and Happy Friday!
Like most families, we love to get together to celebrate holidays. This weekend will be no different! We’re all heading to my mom’s house on Sunday for a cookout and some games – and maybe we’ll take a pontoon boat ride again! This picture is my Grandma and my baby brother last summer. We’re all about good times and sunny weather.
What are you planning on doing this weekend? I’d love to hear your plans!
Also, keep in mind that we’ll be closed on Monday – but we’ll be back on Tuesday!
Have a great weekend, and Happy 4th of July!!
Anne
