Good Morning....how I wish I felt peppy today and could offer you a little something to make you smile or your heart sing throughout the day...but, I'm worn right out :) The great news is....that the painting is done....it's so beautiful and warm....cozy and comfy...the walls looks good enough to lick :)....that's what I get for choosing colors like Brown Bread and Sweet Marzipan. Today I'm off to go touch everything up....my husband is laying the tile, and then we shall be ready for the sweet sight of the cabinet truck coming up our dirt road on Wednesday...I am beside myself. I have been having such a fun time hanging out with my guy while we've been painting....it's always such a treat to be with him....happiness should be shared, and that's what we've been doing these last few days together...I can't believe we are to this stage at last. He broke ground on my birthday last year, July 2nd....and told me he'd have me a little bungalow built in a year...I adore him. I told him last night that he keeps getting sweeter as the time goes on...he's always been thoughtful and gentle...but he is even more so now...how did I get so lucky? He spoils me....pampers me... My favorite thing is hearing him whistle through the house while he's painting in one room and I'm in another....he always whistles...it's s true sign of his adorable personality. So before I head out today, I though I'd share a card that makes me smile...makes me think of him and my little one...and family...and....all the sweet things in life.
Love is most definitely better than ice cream...but ice cream certainly does make this girl happy...especially when it's green and minty :) All Melissa Frances goodies here...chipboard, paper, cardstock stickers. The trims are some fun finds....pearls from Kaisercraft, and the button from Papertrey Ink.
Hope you have a sweet one today.

I'm thrilled to know your home is painted and that you both have made such progress. Your ice cream card is sensational, my dear. Huge Hugs,
