It's A Good Thing

This weekend is Nicole's first wedding shower, a tea actually. The theme is Martha Stewart, It's A Good Thing. Guests are to bring something from Nicole's MS's selections. It was really fun shopping for this one!

If you've talked to me lately, you know THE dress for her wedding has been the issue. I finally found THE dress at Nordstrom's, wrong color. Hubby gave up his entire Saturday, we went shopping and guess what - THE dress! WOO HOO! Check it out.

Now, just need shoes and jewels and we're in biz!

And looking for ideas for traditions we can start for our two brides in the family this year - ideas?

Update on the "FLIP" - so far it's a flop. We have two or three showings each week, but only one has come back for a second viewing. Keep praying for us...visit and take the tour: kathyspillyardsteam.com . 505 Seis Lagos Trail . Wylie - then forward to anyone you know looking for a home in the metroplex in a wonderful gated neighborhood.

Do you call if a flip if it's already yours?

Today we meet contractors to begin the renovation on a home we own in Wylie. It is located in a fabulous neighborhood, has a wonderful floor plan, BUT (and you knew it was coming)....has the original countertops and WALLPAPER from the early 80's.
So today, we are selecting new countertops, we will do some of the work ourselves and outsource the rest.
It's so difficult in selecting something "generic". To pick out everything - the first consideration is the average buyer. I'm thinking that could be anyone from 30 - 70, which most likely bear much different taste.
So wish me well. I'm putting on generic clothes, wearing generic shoes and trying to "assume" the role.
Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining! It's exciting to feel like a "flipper" - always thought we would be good at it. But are you truly a flipper if it's already yours?

This might be fun

Well my sistas...it's never too late to learn - and I say get on board. This blogging craze is not going away, and it's a terrific way to strengthen relationships, make new friends and we just might learn a little something along the way.

It will take time, just like anything we do, to get this blog up and going. It needs good content - and of course if you already know me - I am ready to "decorate"!

I intend to use this blog to not only post my "moments", I also want to use this space to be supportive of you - so feel free to "spill"....I'll promise to use my limited "wisdom" as a sounding board.

So, logging out now to get to the decorating....until tomorrow!
