my dad is coming to birmy for the weekend!

today is all about getting our loft ready for my dad to visit for the weekend!  we are so excited to see him & show him the town. & he is excited to help us put together some furniture, play with tools, you know, man stuff.

we got two of these buffet tables to go in the dining room:


to help us store these lovely wedding gifts:








we are also, obviously, a little ready for football to start.  there's only one...

love love,

    Now that you're in my old neck of the woods, I completely forgot to tell you about Homewood! I'm not sure where you are in location to Homewood, AL, but they are worth an afternoon (or day) trip just to see all of the neat shops. It is one of the cutest little downtown areas ever...this article is old but gives a good description of their shops!

    I could have easily spent the day there. They've also got a Penzey's Spices which I'm guessing you would love. Go explore there for sure!!
