How is it already Thursday, y'all? I love short weeks! :)
And there are so many things to be thankful for today...
{I'm thankful} that life's back to normal again, at least for a little while. This week, I've been getting home at a respectable hour, having dinner with friends, and watching trashy t.v. So, I've been in heaven, basically. :)
{I'm thankful} for thunderstorms. There isn't much I love more than thunder and lightning in the summer. (Although I'm pretty sure I'm the dumbest person ever because I got my car washed yesterday...)
{I'm thankful} that I finally took the maxi dress plunge. I was searching frantically for a dress to wear to my friend Ashley's bachelorette party on Saturday night and, in an act of sheer desperation, I tried on a pretty blue dress from New York and Company (LOVE that place!) and fell in love.
(Pardon the picture quality - can you believe that none of us brought a real camera? I had to beg a passer-by to take this one. And isn't miss Ashley [the adorable bachelorette in the red dress] just so precious? Love that girl to pieces!)
{I'm thankful} that we finally found some furniture for our front porch.
See the porch?
Here's what we ended up getting.
And, crazy enough, we found it at Walmart.com! I looked everywhere and found very little that didn't look overly boxy and modern. On a whim, I checked Walmart, and they had more selection (at the BEST prices) than anywhere else I found! I'm terrible at envisioning how something will look in a space, so I'm praying that it doesn't look ridiculous, but if it does, we'll just send it back and try another one. :)
And last, but certainly not least, {I'm thankful} that, a year ago today, this little ray of sunshine entered our lives.
(At her first birthday party, really enjoying her cake... :))
Happy first birthday, Stella Jo! I've had the most fun this past year getting to be your aunt, and I can't wait to see what God has planned for your life!
So that's what I've got this week - what are you guys thankful for?

Happy birthday to your beautiful sunshine :)
Yay trashy tv...ha! I fall victim to the Bachelorette, too...oops!
I'm glad you're getting home at a decent time...yay!
Hope your week continues to be amazing! <3
Happy Thankful Thursday...thanks for the great linkup! ox
That dress looks fantastic on you!
Happy birthday to your little one!
what a gorgeous house you have!!!
I can't stand when home decor is too boxy, geometric, and modern. So I have a hard time finding things like this too.
Thanks for hosting again!
My husband hates that I watch The Bachelor/The Bachelorette, but I love it. Especially when it's on in the summer! I need stuff to watch during the day!! And I LOVE Bachelor Pad too. I can't wait until it's onat the end of summer!
P.S.
Thanks for linking up to First Day of My Life's Thankful Thursday <3
Love the maxi it looks great on you! Love the porch furniture! What kind of stone is that on the front of the house? It is so unusual. I really like it!
i am still waiting patiently for the bachelorette to show up on demand because I missed recording it this week! Stella could quite possible one of the cutest babies ever! I love her pictures!
