A Crazy Day + New Lamps

Sorry for the missed post yesterday. We had quite an eventful Tuesday and not in a good way. That morning we got a phone call from my husbands coordinator at work, her husband was in a motorcycle accident. Praise God he is doing quite well. A true miracle really. The Mr. spent the day at the hospital with them. During this time KJ quickly became ill. Never seen him so sick, I was quite scared to be honest. His fever reached 103 and we (dr and I) had a hard time getting it to go down. He wasn't alert and kept on falling asleep. When he did speak he just kept repeating that he was burning. He ended up having strep. Had no idea it could get so bad. A few other things thrown in and wow, it made for quite a day.


I am sure you are ready for me to get back to design so here are a pair of lamps that I got at Scott's in Atlanta. I didn't purchase the shades, but it's on my to do list. I will share as soon as I do. They are in the master and make me quite happy.


For more design related posts you can come see me on Mrs. French. I have a new one up and I am quite smitten with the inspiration image.

It breaks my heart seeing your poor little boo bear so sick. I always feel so helpless when my kids are sick. It makes me say extra prayers for those parents who have really sick kids.

Poor little guy! I know, that can be the scariest experience when your child is sick. So glad to hear he's on the mend, and the same with your friend who had the accident.

Hope he feels better! Paula do you have a link to a bridal shot of you? I think at one point there was one on Kellen's site where you had yellow/green flowers and you had some sort of jacket over your dress. Tried to find it and I couldn't
