The "before" picture

We decided it was time to give Lainey a big girl room. She's been in a toddler bed for too long and was about to outgrow it. We looked at bunk beds and some different ideas for girl's rooms but didn't feel like any of the options out there gave us the storage she needs or would be the best use of the space in her room. So my rock star husband went to work and made an amazing creation...

He even put lighting in it...I'm still amazed

Trimming it out Drum roll please..........

Tah Dah! The finished product.

Love my handy man.

I had a wonderful birthday this year thanks to my family and incredible husband. We started the day with a trip to the pumpkin patch. There is something about this place that I just love. How could you not...fresh peaches, strawberries, apples, pumpkins...something wonderful year round.

Jamie planned some time for me at a spa and then took me out to dinner at a restaurant that rotates while you eat. It has such amazing views of the city lights and the arch. Just gorgeous and so fun to get all dressed up together. I am thankful for a husband that likes to celebrate moments together...even the small moments. And yes, he is taken and he's all mine.

This is a funny picture to me. In the parking lot that night was a toyota solara, which was the first car I bought myself and I LOVED it. It was sort of like my dream car. We parked across from it in our Odyssey and it just made me laugh how much my life has changed in the past 10 years.

We met my parents in Columbia for the afternoon the next day. We played at the park and had a nice dinner together.
