Love Is In The Air

I LOVE HOLIDAYS! I LOVE VALENTINE'S DAY! I LOVE LOVE!

Glad I could get that off my chest...

Happy Valentine's Day to you all!
Even more importantly, Happy Valentine's Day to the most amazing man I know!

And to my sweet Ella & Brady
I love this man and these babies more and more every single day.

Do you have any Valentine's Day traditions? 
We do!
Every year, Brad lets me shave some of his back hair off to form a heart. He's so festive!
LOOKIN' GOOD, BABE!

Instagram Happenings

I've been a bad little blogger recently. I've been devoting my blogging hours to the Monkees blog and neglecting Xo Lindsay. No mas! So be sure to head over there to keep up with my Monkees and fashion posts if you're missing me.

Any who, I thought I'd share with you a few of my most recent Instagram hap'nin's, beginning with my babies hanging out on the front porch on a 75 & sunny day. Be jealy.

 In the rare evenings that I get to take a time-out and enjoy a hot bubble bath, I also get to play 'boner' (as Brad & I call it... so inappropriate, I know) with Brady because he'll whine and carry on if I don't. But seriously, how could I resist that sweet face??

Over the weekend, Bradley and I went out with a few of our favorite couples to enjoy some Louisiana soul food at a downtown restaurant. Followed by a magic show. Followed by a gay bar. Followed by a little billiards (i'm so fancy that it's billiards, not pool). Followed by "get my arse home and to bed!"

Dining Room Update:
Wallpaper installation is Friday morning @ 8:30. FINALLY!

Oldie But Goodie

I've often take a gander at Jacqui Getty's Hollywood home {that was featured a million years ago in C Mag} when I'm in a decorating slump. Everything about this home is so inspirational to me. Maybe I'll just stop racking my brain on what I want for my home and replicate all of the pretties in the pics below.








My favorite part of her home, you ask? Okay, you didn't ask, but I'll tell you anyway: That blissful backyard! It's the perfect cozy spot to read, nap, sip drinks, read magazines... I might actually just have to recreate what I'm seeing there. 

I'll continue to ever so slowly decorate the inside of my home, but come Spring, our backyard will be getting some much needed TLC. 

So it was a good weekend- my dining room wallpaper arrived (UH-MA-ZING), Brad & I devoured Mexican & Italian food (UH-MA-ZING), I watched the fierce Beyonce perform (UH-MA-ZING), and once again, I visited the ol' RedBox (Word to the wise: DO NOT RENT 'PAPER BOY'- not so amazing. Quite disturbing, actually!)

Ta-ta fo' now!

Weekend Recap

Happy Monday, Friends! 

How was my weekend? Well, besides attending the 13th Annual Founders' Gala, getting a much needed mani/pedi, cleaning the entire house, doing 5 loads of laundry, working, and catching up on my Redbox movie rentals, I accomplished absolutely nothing.

Today is my day of rest. I'm tired. I shall treat today like a Sunday afternoon. All 5 of my readers should be grateful that I mustered up enough energy to write this post. 

I'll leave you with a few of my favorite snapshots from the Gala.





Later, Gators!

Dining Room Update

Wainscoting is complete!

And see that little piece of pretty paper in the last picture? That would be a wallpaper sample. A gorgeous one, at that. It arrived today and 3 rolls were purchased just a couple hours later. The UPS man is very quickly becoming my new BFF.


Ain't she a beaut? Thank you very much Anthropologie!
