The Bathroom

The Bathroom VIEW SLIDE SHOW DOWNLOAD ALL

I think that often times bathrooms are looked over because they are not as visible to visitors or they are the last thing included in the budgets of redecorating.

I personally think that bathrooms are the complete “you” or “me” space and is often the place where you are completely alone. This post was inspired as I was freezing and wet coming home this evening and I thought…oh a hot bubble bath…

The large picture with the group is one of my favorites, what a dreamy shower and serene space. I love the light colors and dark accents. I could imagine just sitting in that shower with so many features for hours on end.

The hot pink bathroom – how fun! I would never ever have thought to design a bathroom with such bold pink-ness but I think it is precious. Especially for a young girl, it is still put together and classy but so very fun and unique.

The other two pictures of complete bathrooms I think are just pretty setups and are such pretty bathroom designs. As you can tell I love the tub or a spacious shower. The stand alone bath tub that looks more like a funky time machine or something of the sort is something that just merely caught my eye. How exactly does that work? It is like laying out but in the tub? Who knows, it is probably incredibly comforting.

What do you all think? What are your bathrooms like or what do you wish they would be?

Thankful

 

I remember in high school alums would come back or my siblings and their friends would say “enjoy the time, you wont talk/see most of these people ever again” – I don’t know about you but this scared me to death because I loved my friends.

Now I will say that the majority of people I saw on a daily basis have all moved on and are doing exciting things with their life and without Facebook, I would have no idea what they are up to. BUT – I was incredibly blessed in my middle and high school years to have a magnificent group of friends. And I am so proud to say that as we are halfway through our 3rd year removed from high school that we are still best friends. We all dispersed in many directions.. 3 to Auburn, 1 to Alabama, 1 to UWF, and 2 Florida. (Apparently we are  good luck, just check out our football teams since we have been there) and we may not talk every day or even every week but when we get back together or when we get the chance to have a phone call its as though nothing changed.

Last week was a beloved member of the 7 (the name in which we call ourselves) Landys 21st birthday and we were able to coordinate a time in which we could both talk undisturbed. It was an hour long conversation discussing all aspects of life. Before we got off Landy said… “Isn’t it funny how we can be separated for weeks or months and pick up the phone and its like nothing changed” and for that I am so incredibly thankful.

In honor of Landy’s birthday I dedicate this post to her and some flashbacks on our friendship – (don’t worry s7 your posts are coming)

What I love about Landy -

• her obsession with diet coke
• she drove the mexi for all of high school
• one of the first times we hung out just the two of us we scored free pie from Jim ‘n’ nicks
• I believed her name was Landrew for like 2 years
• she likes anything I bake
• she listens to any and all complaining sessions
• she is the bomb diggity.

This list could go on for days…here are some reminiscent pictures (cue the nostalgia)

(she will probably thank me for most of these..my  favorite is the one on the far bottom right.)

So thankful that with my friends though we have all begun our own lives and may never all live in the same town together again – some things never change.

The Kitchen Sink

Farm Sinks VIEW SLIDE SHOW DOWNLOAD ALL

I have become quite infatuated with kitchens and have pretty much decided that I could forego any other part of my house as long as I could have a magnificent kitchen.

I watch HGTV quite a bit which only makes matters worse because I see so many different styles and colors that I pin point every little detail that I dream of having.

This album above is something I am in love with at the moment and that is the kitchen sink…not just any sink, but a FARM sink. (I know, I go to the University of Alabama and I dream of having a farm sink, go ahead, crack the jokes) But I just love them. The pictures are various styles of the traditional farm sink and it is easy to see how they can fit in a variety of kitchen styles.

Let me know what you think…are they too big or too much? Or maybe just perfect..I tend to think so.

Thirteen Days

So I have said before that I am a history major…I Love history. I love learning about military history, cultures, decisions…and I guess people in general. It intrigues me to imagine why people do the things they do, why do country’s react the way they react. And this list could go on…

I will be the first to say that often historical movies are inaccurate but there is one movie that I love and that would be 13 days.

This movie chronicles the 13 days where the United States and the USSR were quite possibly at the brink of a nuclear war. The USSR was sending missiles to be stored in Cuba (which is very close to the U.S.) and we setup a blockade to prevent the ships from entering Cuba. The ships of the two countries were literally nose to nose in the open sea.  With much deliberation and thought President Kennedy was able to fend off war and settle the dispute peacefully. There was a lot more into it than this simplicity.

I think what I like so much about the movie is well the intensity and the inside look at what this process looked like but also the workings of the Kennedy brothers…we didn’t have much time to see them and their work but this is something that really was a remarkable event and time period.

Kevin Costner is the big name actor we see here but all of the acting is really great. I am not a movie critic in any sort but if you enjoy suspense and/or history then you would love this movie. I truly recommend watching it to see what it might “possibly” be like for a president and his cabinet during such times. Of course Hollywood is Hollywood and they will doctor things up for their liking but I do think this is a great movie and have watched it maybe 10 times. (It is always on TV)
