Petticoats on the Prairie

It's here!

The event of all events....well, okay, not exactly but I am so pumped!!!

Petticoats on the Prairie starts tomorrow. A friend and I are hitting it up Saturday.  I can NOT wait. 

I can't wait to see all the gypsy-fied awesomeness. Maybe I'll get some ideas or find some killer items for my ultra awesome nursery I'm planning (not your every day nursery, I assure you).

For this junk lovin' country girl stuck in town...this is the perfect outing! Jewelry, junk, vintage - 3 of my favorite things! :)

So if you're any where near Snyder, TX .... head out toward Ira and I'll see ya there.  And don't forget your petticoat!

Peace, Love & Petticoats,

I love Easter...

I love Easter! I always have! The beautiful colors, the Easter egg hunts, the yummy food & wonderful fellowship with family!  

I remember as a kid, my Pa always hid eggs in the top of the swingset...Wendy always got them first!   And Gran Gran made sure Wendy & I both had a 'prize' egg with awesome goodies and a 5 dollar bill.  She would freeze the candy eggs every year, I bet we hunted the same eggs for 10 years!! 

I'm 26 now and will soon have a kiddo of my own and still I wish we could hunt eggs just like we did when we were kids!  :)

Easter services are always my favorite, but the drive to Hale Center for lunch usually prevents us from making it...it's worth it though to spend time with my wonderful grandparents. I don't see them enough as it is, so Holidays are very important to me with them...

Happy Easter everyone! :)

Don't forget to eat some puffs & a Cadbury egg or two!!


Peace, Love & Easter Eggs,

Rain

If you read this...please pray for rain to fall over the South Plains.

There have been so many fires lately, land is burning up every where.

Bless the guys out there trying to save lives, homes & livestock...bless their families waiting on them at home.

Please pray for rain.

2 Chronicles 7:13-14

Peace, Love & Rain...

Confessions...

1. I hate getting up at 5:45 to come to a job that will end soon.

2. I hate throwing up as soon as my feet hit the floor, while I'm showering, before during & after I brush my teeth, and pretty much whenever else the sinking, watery mouth feeling hits me.  Yup, I'm over it. Seriously...please let me be over it soon... :)

3. How am I ever suppose to get UN-tired if I have to work late and work on Saturdays too? Don't you crazy people know a girl needs some rest? geez...

4. One of my very best friends just became an aunt for the first time today to a handsome lil feller named Wyatt Lane. Cute name for one cute little baby! I am so very happy for their family, I know this has been a long time coming and I'm so very happy for them and their happy, healthy little bundle of blessings!!

5. We have a girl's name picked out...but Kammerdammer & I can NOT agree on a boy name...all I know for sure is either way, initials read KRB, just like my handsome KRB and his handsome KRB daddy! :)

6. I get migraines and this here pregnancy thing is really doing a number on my headache situation.  Thank you Tylenol for NOT working...you do it o so well.

7. I wish I was one of those glowing happy pregnant people...but I feel gripey and whiney and mean. 

8.  I haven't been out to see the horses in 3 weeks. In my book, this is unacceptable.  Maybe I'll go tomorrow...

9.  I'm a pack rat and my hubby loves junk. We have crap everywhere. I need some fairy Godmothers to swoop in, wiggle their noses or point their wands and make everything dance happily to its place....and then they can run a very successful garage sale for me...dream big, little sheba...

10.  I thought I wanted a boy, and I'll be ecstatic boy or girl - as long as he/she is healthy and happy...but there is SO much cute little girl stuff out there, too much fun...so either way...I'm ecstatic. I just need to know if it's bows & boots or hats & boots...o who am I kidding??! It's hats & boots no matter what! :)

11. We have 3 very happy, playful little puppies at our house. They are 5 weeks and 2 days old today.  I cannot believe how much they've grown & changed. It's been so fun having them around, but next week it will be time for them to find new homes...2 of them are spoken for, and one of them has a tentative home with Kam's MaMaw & PaPaw, I really wish they'd take her because, well, she's my favorite and she's sweet as she can be...and I think she's perfect for them....but if they don't there will be a very strict adoption policy on her...cuz she's special. And if that doesn't work out, maybe I can add a wolf to the wolfpack once again...

12. I got my very first speeding ticket this past weekend.  So for future reference, when traveling out of town for photography sessions, don't speed or you won't come home with any money...82 in a 70, it'll get you every time!

Peace, Love & fun,

A look back in time...

Earlier this morning, I stumbled upon a few things I had written back when Kam and I first started dating. If you weren't around us then, you probably don't know this, but we had a hard start.  He was hung up on an old ex and couldn't quite get his mind wrapped around a new thing...but when he got it all figured out, that's when life got good! Anyway, I thought I'd share a few things I wrote back then...silly as they may be, here it goes:

He stayed here last night. I can still smell a hint of his cologne on my pillows. He stayed here last night. He is what dreams are made of - handsome, clever, sweet and just crazy enough to keep up with me. Yes, he stayed here last night and when he left, he took my heart.

~~~~~

I wish I could give you a reason to stay. I wish I could make you see that the only place in this world that I wanna be is with you. I wish I could make you see how happy you make me and how being with you was the first time I'd been truly happy in a very long time...but I guess it wouldn't matter because you were gone before you ever let me in...I wish you would've just never let me in.  

I wish I could give you a reason to stay...but I guess you found enough reasons to leave....and whether I'm hurting or happy...I'll keep on living....

BUT I'LL ALWAYS WISH I COULD HAVE BEEN REASON ENOUGH TO STAY.....

~~~~~

WHAT FINALLY MADE YOU SEE

THAT YOU WERE MADE FOR ME?

WHAT WAS IT THAT CAUGHT YOUR EYE,

THAT STOPPED YOUR HEART FROM LEAVING ONE MORE TIME…

WHAT WAS IT THAT MADE YOU COME BACK THAT DAY?

WHAT MADE YOU FINALLY SEE

I WAS REASON ENOUGH TO STAY?

~~~~~

Dreamers search for the world they see inside of themselves instead of accepting the world they are in. Dreamers believe in things unseen. They believe in words said in silence. They believe in heartbeats and moments. Dreamers fight for what could be and leave what was behind. Dreamers have fearless hearts.

See that's the trouble with me - I'm a dreamer - I have a fearless heart. And that fearless heart has a tendency to get broken. But see, that's the trouble dreamers - we always come back for more. 

 

Peace, Love & Roads Well Traveled,
