    I feel like I have been such a bad blogger lately.
    I have tons of things I think about and want to post,
    but then I just don't get around to it.

    I have been hit by the spring cleaning fairy...
    and I have a bunch of bags ready for Goodwill.
    I promise to get back into the bloggy swing of things.
    Thanks for hanging in with me during this dry spell.

    Top Ten list for this Tuesday!

    10. Seeing new flowers springing up everywhere.
    9. Feeling the pain from my Taebo workout...so worth it.
    (I have lost 8 lbs. since Feb, only 10 more to go)
    8. Seeing the wind blowing through my open windows
    7. Smelling my room full of lilac blooms.
    6. Going to Goodwill and totally scoring tons of "new to me" clothes for my kids.
    5. Getting good news:-)
    4. Planning fun things to do on our vacation with the kiddos.
    3. Making more yummy choc/peanut butter goodness.
    2. Having fun with a sorts of craftiness/craziness.
    1. Creating a new centerpiece with my newest obsession.

    I am totally obsessing over these white milk glass vases!
    On our trip to PA I scored a few from my dad's basement...
    I decided they needed a new home to love them.
    They were just sadly sitting in the basement
    covered in dust.
    ( I did ask before I removed them from the dust)
    And now every time I am at goodwill,
    I find another vase.
    And yes, I buy them every time...

    hey I said it was an obsession:-)

    I loved how they looked on my table,
    but it needed something else.

    Target to the rescue!!!!
    These fun pink/fuschia plates were in the $2.5o dollar spot.
    I heart Target so much!
    Is there anyone else that just loses
    all track of time and space when you enter that store???
    I think they put something in the air vents...
    why else do I go in and not come out until I have spent all my money?
    (Lets just not mention the lack of self control I have when I see cuteness:-)

      Really like the milk glass vases all together like this. Don't think I've seen this before! It's so springy/summery! Oh, and yes, Target is definitely a drugged place. I don't know what they do to you when you walk in, but they make it IMPOSSIBLE to ever walk out emptyhanded! Ha! Is there a support group for that? 🙂

      Congrats on the weight loss! That is awesome.
      Yes, Target takes all my money too. I like to refer to it as a "reverse ATM machine", LOL! I just love walking around in there and looking through the clothes, the shoes, and the home decor stuff.
      Those milk vases are beautiful. I don't think I've ever seen them before but I'll be making a trip to Goodwill myself ;-).

      I too have a Target problem. I think I even saw a Facebook group that was something along the lines of "I went to Target to buy shampoo and spent $150". Too funny. But I think those vases on the pink plates are adorable! Thanks for sharing.

      What a great center piece! I love it! I need some center piece ideas, and I may have gotten one from you just now!

      I too have been spring cleaning...we are doing a yard sale on Saturday.

      And yes I love Target too...they really do put something in the air vents...my husband thinks Target is a money pit!

      LOVE Target! Now the only way I can go shopping there with my two peeps, is if I buy the 1.50 popcorn/drink combo first to occupy their time. Granted the cleaning crew has to follow us with every step cause we leave a trail of popcorn throughout the store, but hey, at least it keeps them happy, which in return keeps momma happy!

      Also, you're so stink'n creative! Wish I had that motivation to be more creative. Or at least more "space" to be creative...tiny house = not a lot of room for creativity.

      I love milk glass. Between it and my carnival glass, I've about filled up my curio cabinet, that big glass one from the high school auction. I'm jealous of your flowers, I've been trying to pick wisteria for a week now and can't remember to bring scissors with me when I know I'll be driving by it. But, I did get my garden tilled so I get to plant some flowers there today 🙂

      What a fresh and lovely centerpiece! I too, am obsessed with milk glass - reminds me of my grandmothers. And the lilacs remind me of home - which happens to be PA. Are we related or somethin'?
