Towels and Popsicles

A few weeks ago I was complaining about the towels we registered for from Bed, Bath, and Beyond. Don't get me wrong, we are very thankful for the people who purchased the towels for us, but we should have registered for different ones. Our mistake. I just have gotten fed up with pulling lint from from my mouth and eyelashes. So this weekend we were at Bed, Bath, & Beyond checking out the towels and we ran into some friends who were registering for their wedding in a few months. They told us that Macy's had great towels, and that they have had the same ones for years now. So we jumped on that wagon and headed straight there. So to all my registering/soon to be married friends...WE FOUND GREAT TOWELS!! They are soft, don't shed, and get the water off!! What more could you ask for from a towel? I love them:



These are Hotel Collection from Macy's

Summer is here and my skin is evidence of that. Yesterday I thought I wanted a bit of sun, so I went and laid out for maybe 30-40 minutes. Not smart. This is the first drop of sun my skin has seen in a long time. Even driving in the car to the store was torture. I was trying to inch out of the sun as I drove. I was practically sitting in the middle console. Ridiculous! There is one good thing about summer and that has to be my childhood favorite: FUN POPS! Kev picked these up from the store the other day, and I got so excited! I have had at least one a day!

Last weekend, we went home to celebrate my Happy Day with friends and family. We ate dinner at Bahama Breeze and boy was it good! I finally got to see my sweet friends as well. I hadn't seen them since our wedding in January, and I have missed them so much.

We also got to see Kevin and Chloe!! We played marbles until almost 12 a.m. before driving back to Jackson and might I say that Chloe and I won one game out of two! Victory is sweet. Can't wait to see them again!

I have been working hard on sanding down the trunk I got last week. It's definitely taking a lot longer than I expected. We got some varnish and stain stripper to hopefully pull off the imprint left from the painted on circus scene. My last resort is to paint it. I hate to paint over any good wood, but we will just have to see what happens.

Off to see what I can make with some new fabric I got yesterday!
