It's not complete...







yet... but it will be by Sunday. I just couldn't wait to post a few photos of this project... It all started with Maddie.. I painted her a rocking chair in her mom's college colors.. Good Old Carolina Blue... added her footprint, dated the underside... then came Sophia, Zeke, Ben, Jace, Connor and Ellie... I'm a bit behind.. but will strive to complete all chairs by Connor and Ellie's first birthday... which gives me until Feb... wish me luck..
This is Ben's chair.. he was the first I let help paint... Maybe I should let the others .. hmmm.. I did paint Zeke's foot and thumb for his Tarheel print.. so continued that with Ben... not sure what I'm doing with the other chairs.. Sophia definitely does not want Carolina Blue.... she's a yellow girl... so, no foot print there.. or... will there be?? Stay tuned to see what YaYa does!!

And.... it's a vacation...

NOT... okay, okay... we're not big on vacations.. I loved it when my kids were growing up.. however, we never stayed more than 4 nights anywhere.... I don't mind a day or 2.. at most... but, this beats anything in length.. or lack there of.. in our history.. ever...





Rick and I got up this morning and decided to drive to get peaches... an hour there.. 30 minutes choosing peaches.. potty break.. and an hour back home.. that's it.. pretty much sums up or summer fun.. yea, we're a great fun couple.. really... we are... just ask anyone... ha!
