{woot....woot}

Hello there....
This past weekend my camera broke....boohoo...but, today my sweet husband ran out to buy me a new camera!! Awww....thanks honey!
Anywho, it's not the DSLR I really, really wanted...but it's a SUPER upgrade from the camera that broke. So, I am HAPPY. Plus....good things come to those who wait, right?!?!?


I was tinkering around with it today and thought I would share how I christmas ified...my front porch...
I was sticking with the turquoise and silver theme I have going on inside....
Here's a little wreath I made last year or the year before {I can't remember}. I think it looks perfect on my blue front door.

I like to put cute things in my planter boxes during Christmastime...I think it looks better then plain dirt:)
Oh and here's a cute little photo I took while I was trying to learn about my new camera..

I think I am going to be super pleased with my new camera!! Can't wait to take some foodie photos!! YIPPEE!!
Hope you all had a great weekend!!
We did some fun things but I didn't have my camera, so I can't share!! Unless.....my friend sends me copies of the photos on her camera!! **hint, hint, Michelle***

{the front door}

Finally painted the front door last weekend~
Turned out *OK*.....
It wasn't the exact blue I was after...but I still think it looks happy! It seems like I can never pick the paint color that I see in my mind! Why is that?!?!?
I might paint it again at some point~
But not right now.
I added a cute little chalk board {just an old frame I had that I painted black and painted some sheet metal with chalkboard paint} works out just perfect! And I like the happy little flowers below it! I like the house numbers....Had to add those awhile back after the UPS guy wrote me a little note regarding not having house numbers on my house. Sorry!

Happy little flowers to greet our company!


The little pillows I just made look perfect {I think} on the front porch!

And one of my favorite things...

Using wine boxes to plant flowers in! Simple and cute! This one is a little old..but they do last quite awhile and I only pay $5 for them! Cost effective~

Even Ruby and L.C. like to hang out on the front porch!
OK.....really they just like to chase the chipmunks that live around the front porch!

Next will be the pond!! Yippee.....
I love summer projects!! Don't you!?!?!?
Have a happy week~
