i love the simple things in life, always have!

boiled peanuts!! in december! i couldn't believe it, they were so good! they were at a road side stand on the way to the beach.

i scored these at a thrift store for $1 and less for each!

my friend liz made this and sent it to me for another friends new baby! i can't wait to show you pictures of him with it on!

so I grabbed this by accident this morning and sprayed the crap outta my hair thinking it was hairspray - cracked me up!

i'm linking up to sweet lindsays link party here - check it out, leave comments and join in!

Baby D's 7th birthday!

My precious nephew Denison turned 7 today - time cruises, doesn't it! He enjoyed the Panthers game with his mom and brother Thomas, while the girls came with my mom to visit me! The oldest, Will stayed home for some peace and quiet (teenager) and their dad was working as usual. They will have the birthday celebration later this evening when they all gather back in Weddington (outside of Charlotte). Denis is a NASCAR fan, thankfully, and his favorite driver is Jeff Gordon. Not my fav, but he seems like a very nice guy. I made him a card with some JG stuff on it, which he will love and my gift is a JG t-shirt. He's actually going to be JG for Halloween - he was last year too. Little kids - aren't they funny!
It feels like we had a hurricane come through, I think Pepper and I will go out in the backyard and check on the flower beds and bird feeders.
