I know how our homes really do wrap themselves around our hearts. When my first child was just a few months old, my husband's company sent him to work on a project about an hour and a half away. We kept our home, but moved to this new location for about 8 months, just driving to our "real" home on weekends. As much as I was ready to move back to our actual home when the time came, I still remember feeling emotional leaving our temporary home. We get so attached, don't we? From what you said before, it sounds like you really love the new home you'll be moving to in San Antone. I hope that makes the transition a bit easier.ReplyCancel

Wow, how cool is that? Are you thinking of making one? Oh, and by the way, i LOVE that whole room!ReplyCancel

What did you use to tape it back together with? Is it durable?ReplyCancel

"These women picked Princess Sparkle and I up from the airport when we first arrived, they threw me a baby shower, saw me through post partum depression and cared for my children like they were their own."
This made me tear up a bit. I've been having some major gratitude for women lately too. Women are amazing. Im sad you have to leave your friends but Im excited for you new Texas adventures…Im just hoping you dont have to actually MOVE down their until after the blistering humid summer.ReplyCancel

This is very sweet, Miggy. I bet you have some great "friends to be" waiting for you in Texas, too!ReplyCancel

I am so sick of my hair right now. I have had it short for so long that I would love to have it long but growing out curly hair is possibly the longest process in the world. Not sure I can do it. I LOVE this haircut. I used to use Keri Russell as my inspiration when she had long curly hair in the 90's. Except mine probably didn't look very good since I had straight bangs….gag.ReplyCancel

I often use pictures of Reese Witherspoon {when she had short hair} as inspiration when I get my hair cut. I'm probably the world's laziest hair stylist, though. I get it cut short, then feel really accomplished if I manage to put on a headband or something. I don't think I could handle long hair.ReplyCancel

If anyone can pull the short hair it's you. I've always loved when you had short hair. You make it fun.ReplyCancel

you could totally pull this off. even if its not the exact same color. go for it.ReplyCancel

I cut my gait about that length recently and LOVED it. It was easier to make cute although the drying did take some time. The trick to waves is to dry it almost all the way then put it in small buns all over. Let it dry or dry it with a diffuser, undo the buns, shake it out and the the roots a boost with the dryer, spray for some volume and voila! I have half wavy hair and it works like a charm. Now I'm ready to go a lot shorter though…..I'm tired of getting ready every day!ReplyCancel

That hair in that pic, I guarentee you took hours to get just right. I have had my hair done like that from naturally straight, and isn't hers pretty naturally curly? That in between look doesn't come naturally to many women….so I'd beware…

I am a fan of short hair and a specific cut…I think it always looks like an intentional style and rarely lends itself to bad hair days.ReplyCancel

you are the cutest:) i love that movie, too. while we are here in the deep south, i have embraced the smocking and bishop sleeves for little Audrey, but I refuse to conform to the hot-pink and giant bows!! i found a cute pinafore on etsy for PSP:

Oh, I think the clothes are cool and cute, too! With your sewing skills, I bet you could whip up some really nice similar outfits yourself. I remember seeing that movie years ago! Carol Burnett is such a wonderful comedienne. I have many fond memories of watching The Carol Burnett Show when I was growing up. Her comedy sketches were such a hoot!ReplyCancel

I'd try an Oliver and S pattern. they are excellently written and kind of vintagey.ReplyCancel

Hurray! Hurray! Hurray!ReplyCancel

Congrats! That is awesome. It makes a move so much more exciting when you have somewhere fun to move into.ReplyCancel

Yipee! That is so exciting! Now aren't you glad you went for it?!
What a great story and some sweet divine intervention!
(And you didn't even have Lampy with you- your awesomeness alone did it.)ReplyCancel

Exciting! Glad everything worked out. Kudos to you for not giving up.ReplyCancel

Ha! Thanks everyone. I'm so glad I went for it…I'm super excited and if anyone needs a place to stay in San Antonio let me know. 🙂ReplyCancel

Greatness! My daughter, too, purchased a great mid-century modern. Wonder if y'all are in the same area. There is a great accessible playground at the school across the street from her house.ReplyCancel
