Our Weekend and Candle Making...

I swear the weekends seem to fly by faster and faster every month. And Mondays are always a little sad we miss Jason when he goes back to work. But we did have another fun weekend, we try to cram as much as we can in those two days especially when the weathers is nice. Saturday the three of us took a trip to Round Top to do some antique shopping. We have talked about going for years. This weekend it was a smaller show but in April they have a bigger show so I can't wait to go back. I'm slightly obsessed with the HGTV show fixer upper (thanks to my friend Christine for introducing me to this show) her style is such my style so I got some ideas from the show and was hoping to find some things in Round Top. I did get a couple of things and once they're fixed up I can't wait to share.

On the way home we stopped for dinner and margaritas.... Charlee and her daddy were having lots of fun together.

 
You like her homemade glasses???
 
And this picture... I couldn't stop looking at it, her little eyes are closed...oh my gosh, way too sweet.
 
Sunday was one of our friends birthday so the grandparents babysat and we had a Sunday Funday. I do love these girls!!!
 

 

So a few weeks ago I saw this pin on candle making, and thought why not, I love candles so much but they can get expensive, plus when making your own you can buy pure soy wax so they burn clean. Once I ordered all of my supplies, I started making them. It was actually pretty easy and I love the way they turned out. And they smell great too. I ordered oil, but I also had this oil from the body shop and since I love this smell so much I decided to use it in one of my candles. So I really think you can use any oil you want as long as you use the right amount.

So I seriously just got chills the preview for the SERIES finale of Parenthood just came on. If you don't watch this show....I can't recommend it enough it's so amazing and heart warming, it's definitely a feel good cry every week. Jason and I have watched it from the beginning six seasons ago and I'm just so sad this Thursday I have to say bye to the Braveman family :(

 

And to end on a happy note one of my great friends started a blog, she is one of those people that keeps you laughing and is always dressed so cute I don't know how she keeps up with fashion and a five month old, but she does it flawlessly. Her blog is funny and creative.... Love it and her!
