Camping Indoors

That's what I feel like we've been doing for the past week

We are moving soon

Does anyone need a second home in Savannah?

So our house in complete chaos...
Stuff to take
Stuff to go
Stuff to store
Stuff to give away

How do we have so much stuff?

Not to mention clothes?

I wear the same thing all the time

I need to broaden my horizens

this is half of one closet

(Don't fret though, I have three trash bags full of clothes to take to Goodwill tomorrow)

In the kitchen, its even worse

We've been attempting to eat the food we have

so I haven't been to the grocery store in two weeks

which is why our refrigerator looks like this

pickles, gatorade, skinny girl margaritas, hot sauce, salad, eggs

Poor T has been living off sandwiches and scotch

We've had every type of sandwich invented this week

Tonights specialties were tuna and tomato

All of our glasses are packed, too

hence why I'm drinking my wine out of a solo cup

We are classy, folks

I'm not complaining because this will be our view

which is worth living out of a suitcase and eating off paper plates for a year

Much Love!

PS.  I got my Easter dress today - and it was only $30 !!!

I know what you're thinking, but I promise its pretty

Can't wait to show it to y'all!

Happy (almost) Easter!

Fabulous Beekman Boys

I was at the salon the other day talking with my hairdresser about our favorite shows

He mentioned

The Fabulous Beekman Boys

via

I had never heard of them, but I found their show on

OnDemand

And I was hooked...

The house, the lifestyle, the hilarity of two city boys who move to the country

oh, and then there is Martha Stewart

The show follows two New Yorkers, Brent and Josh, who bought a farm in upstate New York

Brent used to work for the one and only, Martha Stewart, and she makes several appearances on their show

You even get to see her barn in one episode

(although you can't really call it a barn - it apparently smells like lemons)

The duo make soaps, caramel sauce, and cheese

And they are hilarious!

They had me at the house...

Do you think they need a maid?

I would clean toilets to live here!

Is it not divine?!

Brent left his job with Martha and works on the farm full-time, while Josh still works in the city and commutes to the farm on the weekend.

Love

They also have a beautiful barn

They also have a llama

named 

Polka Spot

and lots of goats

via

They have a awesome garden

They have an online store and I'm just itching to buy something

Maybe some of their cheese

I love cheese

or some soaps

If you're interested in learning more

check them out

here

Anyway, its a fun show and if you have OnDemand I'd check it out - Its on the Planet Green channel

They also have a great blog and several wonderful, informative articles in Food & Wine Magazine

Does anyone take Food & Wine?  

Hope everyone had a fabulous weekend!

Thanks for all your sweet comments about our big move!

We are knee deep in boxes and packing paper, but grinning from ear to ear!

Much Love!

Big News

No, we aren't having a baby Duncan 

(which is what everyone has guessed when I say, "We've got some news!")

WE ARE MOVING!

T has been given the opportunity to work for his family's business, which means we will be moving to his hometown of Americus in Southwest Georgia 

We feel truly blessed to be given this opportunity -

It's a chance for us to be sooooo much closer to both our families

which is something we've wanted since the moment we got married!

We realize that now is not the best time to sell a house, but we are keeping our fingers crossed!

In the meantime, we will be living at T's parent's lake house!

Our new (temporary) home!

How many people can say they've lived in a pink house before!  

Love it!

This change is something we've prayed about and are so happy about!

Although, it will be stressful to move 

and selling a house

and I don't have a job yet

its the chance for us to live a small town Southern life, which is something we want for ourselves and our future children!

So happy to share the news with all my blog friends!  

Can't wait to keep y'all updated throughout the entire process!

Very excited!

Hoooneymoon: Part Deux

I'm anxious to show part two of our honeymoon

I'll dream that I'm back in Paris!

So, after we checked into our hotel, we took a serious nap

Jet lag really hit me hard - We really struggled adjusting to the time differnce!

So after our nap, we headed out to explore Paris!

We were so excited to be on our honeymoon and in such a great place, it really was one of the best days of my life!

Everything in Paris was so fresh

from the flowers

to the chicken

and pork

One of our first stops was Notre Dame Cathedral

the first cornerstone was laid in 1163!

1163!

It was beautiful inside and out

The amount of work and detail is unbelievable!

Next stop was dinner

This was probably the cheapest dinner we had our entire honeymoon, but it was my favorite

Can you tell how refined my palate is?

I think it was my favorite because it was where we had our first glass of French wine

We had a three course meal over three hours

The French know how to eat...

Why does the wine taste better in Paris?!?

French onion soup - so yum!

After dinner, we went to an outdoor cafe and to drink more wine

And we made some French friends, who we talked with for hours!

See, the French are nice!

The next day we awoke, had another fabulous breakfast of croissants and fresh squeezed orange juice 

and headed to the Eiffel Tower!

While waiting in line, T almost got lost in the crowd behind us!

Ha!

We went all the way to the top, but this is view of Paris was taken two floors up

I know everyone probably feels like they have to go to the top, but if you're claustrophobic, don't forget your anti-anxiety medicine...

Good Grief!

You can barely move up there!  I almost had a breakdown (I am extremely claustrophobic)!

Anyway, I survived, and to regroup, we stopped for a beer and Coke

Ok, why doesn't America have bottled Cokes everywhere like France?

A bottled Coke is so much better than a canned Coke!!!

 

The outdoor market was right next to the cafe we stopped at
Loved all of the outdoor markets!

If I lived here, I think I would shop here everyday!

Fresh fruits...

CHEESE

(my favorite)

meats...

a little bit of everything!

gorgeous flowers!

Can't you just tell how happy I am?!?

Well, thats it for Part 2!!!

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

Much love!
