Fresh Spring Home
I love a Crisp Clean Smell when you walk into your home!
I have a dog and 3 kids! So, I really pay attention to the Smell of our home!
I got this great recipe from Pinterest and tried it this weekend!
Ever walk into William Sonoma and just love it all!
It's the Smell of Fresh Lemon, Fresh Rosemary, and Vanilla.
So easy and simple with a welcoming result!
This is a must try for your home!
The Fresh Color of the Lemons and Rosemary are just beautiful!
It's the Simple things in Life!
Click here for the Recipe!
Happy Monday my friends!
Enjoy your Fresh Filled Home!!!

Happy Hour
Happy Friday!
Hope it was a meaningful week!
It is always great to sink yourself into some inspiration
and feel rewarded and good!
Well...sit back and relax...Happy Hour is here!
Today doesn't fall short of a goodie!
Time to sit outside and enjoy the Sunshine and great weather!
We are enjoying a Crisp Sauvignon Blanc from New Zealand!
Meet your new friend....Mohua Sauvignon Blanc!
For those of you that are typically a Chardonnay Drinker ...I encourage you
to branch out and try an amazing Sauvignon Blanc.
Sauvignon Blancs are so Crisp and Refreshing.
My favorite Sauvignon Blancs are from this region in Marlborough, New Zealand!
Mohua is simply delightful. It is pure and vibrant and rich with passion fruit, nectarine, and lime!
Mohua can be found for about $15/bottle. Remember with most Wine Shops and
Retailers if you buy 6 Bottles or 1 Case you can usually get a discount.
Put your toes in the Sand and Enjoy a Happy Hour
with Mohua Sauvignon Blanc!
Cheers!!!

Anchors Away
"Anchors Away" Friends!
Come Sail away with me on a Monday for a fun Party Post!
I love me some Nautical! Maybe it's that I have 2 boys...or maybe
it's just the Florida girl in me! But love Nautical!
So it was a natural for me to do a Nautical Party theme for my Sweet Boy Brody!
It's always about the details!
Life's Details...and the Party Details are what we all want to know!
This was cute....love the Red, White, and Blue!
The Pennant with Stripes and Different Patterns are the Nautical Rope
looked adorable! I put together a Nautical Tablescape
that anchored... no pun intended...for all the Sailors Treats!!
Wood Sailboats....Brody's Monogram...Nautical Rope...and some!
That ever so cute Anchor Napkin was my inspiration for the Party!
I always tell my friends.....find something that inspires you...and go from there!
For me...it was the napkin for this little soiree!
I am all about layering a Table...for anything!
I started with a Burlap Runner...added a White Linen Runner, then added some Burlap
Ribbon and Navy Striped Ribbon! Sometimes...the more merrier!
But not always!!!
It's always fun to run with the theme especially with the food!
Well this table turned into a lot of great yummies for all our guests!
Chocolate Chip Cookies..."Chips Ahoy!" Gold Fish and Swedish Fish!
Brody's Monogram "B" on the Table just a personal touch for the Birthday Boy!
All the Details....bring it together for such a happy little celebration!
Twizzlers....were perfect for the Sailors Nautical Rope!
The Nautical Sugar Cookies were a fantastic addition!
Delicious and Beautiful!
These were super cute in my eyes!
It could be a picture for Pinterest gone bad...however..I am all
for trying anything...even if it doesn't come out perfect...
it has your personal touch to it!!
This is Turquoise Chocolate Dipped Marshmallows...
with Brown Sugar...and Gold Fish...on a stick...of course!
Cute...I know...the kids loved them...not perfect...but precious!
Ok, just love this detail!
Mason Jars for Drinking!
Of course it gets even cuter...with the Rope and the Life Saver
and who we kidding ...love the Blue Stripe Straws!
These were great for the Party....a little Sangria!
Perfection!!
Well...a Nautical Party is not complete without
an adorable Sailor Girl!
Just love her!
My Sweet Sailors!
Ready for an "Anchor's Away" Celebration!!
The Nautical Theme Party was a lot of fun!
Great for the Kids and the Adults!
Anytime there is a Pool involved ...you have success!
I enjoyed putting all of these details together!

Pantry Organization
Organization is my life!
I love it!
I live it and breathe it! An organized Life makes me giddy!
Seriously...I know ...Crazy! But if I wake up to an organized planned day
...I am in my happy place. Does it happy everyday...no! But 8 out of 10 it does!
And Organization throughout your home can truly make your life so much easier.
Today...I am talking about Pantry Organization.
I try and stay on top of it. But it is about a 1 time a year program.
I go through the Pantry....dump old and expired food.
Reorganize the layouts. Making sure it works for our family.
I love to Label. My hubby still laughs at how I label.
But doesn't a label make things happy!
So yes...I label my Pantry.
You can get some Labels for your Pantry here.
My Pantry is not perfect, but it is functional and organized.
I have dreams for my next Pantry!
But the one thing I would share is...that I love baskets, Plastic Containers, and Jars.
I like to see what I have...so I don't over buy. I like when everything has it's own place.
That way you are not searching forever to find things.
Pantry's can easily become a catch all and get all junked up!
I hate when that happens...it does happen to me ...especially during the holidays.
Extra things going on....just need to throw things inside the Pantry.
However, I will tell you...my Housekeeper told me the other day...that my Refrigerator was
Organized! Ahhh! Love it! Just happiness. I will be back to share more Organizational Projects.
I am in constant motion in my home...with Closets and Purging!
With our Family of 5....there is a lot of stuff!!!
This is it my friends!
My Dream!
My Future Pantry!
Perfection!
Check out some of my Organization Ideas from my Pinterest Board Here!
Have fun with your Organizing Projects!!!

Flag Football
Well...Flag Football is my boys Favorite Sport that they play almost year round!
It's a blast! They absolutely love it!
But this was not just any Flag Football Game...this was my Big Boy Brooks' 9th
Birthday Celebration! And I couldn't be more proud of this guy!
Brooks planned his Birthday Party this year....all the way down to the
food! I am serious...this boy is after my own heart. I literally sat back enjoyed the ride on this one!
Brooks is a perfectionist.....a planner...very organized!
I know...the apple doesn't fall far from the tree.
I was thrilled when I saw him on his Notes App on his I Pad one night
just planning away. I love that he had a blast and it was so simple.
I learned a lot from this Party Planner.
#1 to enjoy more...and have fun!!
Looking through the eyes of my Sweet 9 year old!!!
The Weather was just stunning on this day too!
Chilly...but welcoming for Florida. A little Windy...but you know...
I thought I would be bummed that I couldn't deck out a pretty table with the
Beautiful Pennant I made...but actually...I followed Brooks' Lead...
and just enjoyed the Celebration! I mean these boys showed up
with Cleats on... ready to pull flags and make touchdowns!
This was fun...and I just had to share this Party Post...because my Sweet Boy
planned an incredible Flag Football Celebration.
The Cake Pops were the most important request!
These are the most amazing Football Cake Pops.
Brooks of course picked his 2 favorite Pro Teams:
The Tampa Bucs and the New Orleans Saints!
These Cake Pops were replica's of their Helmets!
Umm...so good! Can you believe the details!
They were so yummy too!
When I want Cake Pops...for any Party, Gift, or Celebration...
Kathy's Love of Cakes are the Best! Her work is amazing...never disappoint!
Check out Kathy's Love of Cakes here.
Team Brooks!
Or I should say Team Saints!
It was a Win!
A special Thanks to the adorable Coach Brody!
The Winners...eating their Super Bowl Rings!!!
I just loved having my Brooks be the Party Planner for this Celebration!
Flag Football Celebration...Tested and Approved!
Enjoy your Kids and their Special Birthdays!
