Insta-Dump-Monday!

January 20, 2014 by Cassie 22 Comments

Happy Monday!  I hope you all had a great weekend, and many of you are probably enjoying a three day weekend!  We had a crazy busy weekend at Sweet Clover (yay!).  I worked yesterday and had a great time and saw tons of new customers, which was nice.   Saturday I spent the day taking Emmy to the American Girl Store for her to select her birthday gifts.  I hear we missed seeing the first lady as we went after lunch (Emmy had a basketball game in the morning).  I am glad though- I am not one for big crowds and chaos!  We spent our evening with friends playing fun games, sharing laughs, and sipping wine.  All in all it was a great weekend!

Today I thought I would catch you up on instagram life lately, so here goes!  And if you want to follow me you can find me at cassie8978.

Sarah, my mother in law, and I went to Ikea… I was amused by the ride on unicorn.

My mother in law made the cutest bedding for Emmy’s doll bed.

Pin

I got this sweet little brass hippo on the Eastern shore!
Pin

I also spied these brass deer…. and yes, I took them home!

Pin

Chris and I enjoyed our night away from the kids- cheers!

Pin

I found this cute little wallet and loved the horseshoe!

Pin

Chris and I also got to see Hunger Games on our weekend away!  We don’t get out much, so when we do we act a little foolish.

Pin

I also found these cool vintage arrows at the eastern shore!  They are in the guest room, reveal coming tomorrow!

Pin

Jake found a sunny spot while I was cleaning…

Pin

Ho Hey!  The brass deer are right at home.  Home, home on the mantle, where the brass deer and the brass antelope play!

Pin

Emmy got a special birthday donut on Friday!

Pin

Followed by cupcakes at school!

Pin

After cupcakes, I worked on this piece which will go in the day spa a friend owns.  The color is “Queenstown Gray” from General Finishes.  Still need to finish it, but I adore this color!

Pin

I took Emmy to the AG store.  I tried to convince her we needed furniture for her dolls… since she already has Molly and Saige.  I lost.  Isabelle and Emmy won.  How could I say no to this?

Pin

I then treated her to a birthday chocolate milk shake!

Pin

And we came home and worked on what is becoming her American Girl Nook.  I can’t wait to really dress it up and share!

Pin

It’s so fun having both a son and a daughter!  I get to do all the fun things! 🙂

In other news, you can find me over at Scout and Nimble today sharing “A Photo Every Hour” of my day!  Check out how truly exciting my life is…. or isn’t. 😉  And while you are there, check out one of my favorite bedroom makeovers EVER in the history of bedroom makeovers.

    Looks like fun–but that sentence “favorite makeover in the history of makeovers”?? You’re starting to sound like you-know-who. Just a head’s up!

    Glad you had a good Sweet Clover weekend. And I agree Jesse’s bedroom makeover is so good.
    (Lilly is so jealous about Isabelle LOL 😉

    Sounds like Emmy had a great birthday and a fun mother-daughter outing. Her little nook is just so sweet! … Kevin and I were in Frederick on Saturday and stopped by Sweet Clover. Everything looked great. Sorry we missed you!

    That bedroom is amazing!! Also you are killing it at finding vintage items lately…well actually you always do. It seems unfair to find so much goodness within a week though. And the same week you see Catching Fire. Royally jealous!

    Love the dump! Makes me sad to see the AG stuff, I spent a lot of time in the Chicago store years ago with Sloan and you’re right having a boy and girl is the best!!!

    Ohhhh I can’t handle that doll bedding. It is so precious. I still remember my excitement when I got my first American Girl Doll for Christmas when I was 7. Emmy is such a cute girl. I’m glad your weekend was so great!

    So funny, me and Shaun finally got to see the second Hunger Games movie this weekend, too! I loved it, but the ending was pretty unsatisfying. Oh well.
