Easter Dress Picks

Last week I did a post of Clearance Christmas Dresses I found around the web that were still in stock. So in honor of Easter being right around the corner... I wanted to do a post with some darn cute Easter dresses :)

This mud pie brand dress is the dress I picked out for my little girl this year.


Made in the USA . Also has matching older sister dress.


I just love the vintage look of this dress.


Loving this bright yellow dress from Carters. It screams Spring!


This dress is so simple & classic looking. Perfect for an egg hunt.


I also snagged up this little gem for my baby girl. Hasn't come yet though. 
SPRING PERFECT.


Love-Love-Love this Ribbon Dress by Gymboree

Winterland Wednesday


I woke up today to another Winter Wonderland out my window.

It was just starting to warm up and we were beginning to see the grass when all of a sudden .. SMACK!!! That's right, one large smack in the face by Old Man Winter. He can sure be an Ass. 

So when life gives you lemons your supposed to make lemonade.  Well, when Old Man Winter gives you a whole lot of snow... you make hot chocolate :)



Let it Snow, Let it Snow, Let it Snow.. I got no place to go.

Christmas Story Village Collection

Department 56 has a Christmas Story Village that is just adorable! I do not have it but I saw it at Bronners & think it would be perfect for a die hard Christmas Story movie lover.

(I'm a die hard fan but I already have the Griswold Village & North Pole Series Village. So needless to say, I love my husband and don't want to get into trouble)





The collection has quit a few pieces & would be a great Mother's or Father's Day gift!!!

(I received my Griswold Village for Mother's Day last year)

Here are some of the pieces I found on the internet for sale. :)

Throwback Thursday

Today is Throwback Thursday and to celebrate this day Christmas Style, I plan on watching Meet Me in St Louis. I know this isn't technically a Christmas movie, however the Christmas scene is amazing and I love how the movie follows the seasons. 


Movie Available ((HERE))

I hope everyone has a great Thursday!!!

St Patrick's Day Tree



I didn't put up a St Patty's Tree this year, nor have I ever. It would be very cool to have though and maybe next year I will. (We will see)

Did anyone put up a St Patty Tree????  Pictures or links to share?

A few of my Ornament picks for a St Patrick's Day Tree

Christmas Jams in the Car



I hope everyone had a great weekend and survived their Monday. :)

This past Saturday we had to make a trip to Sprint to pick up our new phones. The Hubby went in to handle all that nonsense, while the baby and I sat in the car and waited. She was asleep and I had a killer migraine from all the drama in my life. So, I reached in the center counsel and pulled out my Christmas CDs. I closed my eyes and listened to the Classics (including my favorite: Its the most wonderful time of the year). This therapy moment totally helped.

Is anyone else still jamin' to Christmas Tunes to help get through this never ending winter???
