Holiday Cards (promo)

For the past few years, I have been getting my holiday cards via Shutterfly and have been extremely pleased! They have an abundance of designs to choose from and I've never had a problem picking out just the right one for our family! I love that they have cards of all different sizes, and ones that you can add multiple pictures to! I think I've already spotted just the one we are going to use! This year however will be more special as we have a new addition to our family that we can't wait to show off! We've already had our picture taken and picked out for our 2010 holiday card and are excited to share them with the ones we love. Not only do we have our 3 year old fur baby with us, but also our 2 month old baby girl...and we've got them caputured together which just melts our heart everytime we look at it :) They are best buds and don't even know it yet!

Below are just some of my favorite items from Shutterfly...check 'em out! The wall calendars make great gifts for the holidays!!

Enjoy!!

Looking to Sell...

Well, there is always a first for everything. While I love browsing on EBay and purchasing, I have never sold anything on there. So I found myself here at Lemon Petals, parting with a few of my favorite items. There is nothing wrong with these, it is just that time. Let me know if you are interested in any of the selling items below. They are all SOLD AS IS, with NO returns. Feel free to let me know if you would like for me to send you more pictures or information on the items, or if you know of someone that might be interested! And stay tuned for more items to be posted.

Happy Shopping....

The Painted Peacock

While on Facebook last night, I saw that I had a "Page Suggestion" sitting in my inbox. It was for this lovely site...The Painted Peacock. I think I just spotted furniture heaven! Now while some talented people (for example, my friend Kelly who loves all this design jazz. check out her blog and handy craftsmanship HERE) may say, "Oh, I can do make that", I on the other hand cannot. I prefer to enjoy the likes of other peoples hard work and enjoy them in my home :) I am sure that if I took the time (but hey, who has that these days with a newbon around) I could whip something up like this, but I'll save that for another rainy day. But, over at TPP, I am absolutely loving her pop of color and vintage look that she is restoring. And not to mention, athe prices are very attractive!! I'd kill to have some of these pieces below in my home, and while maybe in a another lifetime I would, fortunately diapers and wipes seem to take the cake over these pieces these days.

Indulge

Going to be short, as it is another fun filled weekend with visitors in town! Today we're off to the Junior League Shopping Spree. If you live in Raleigh, GO!! It's filled with amazing vendors from all 50 states, and they have fabulous buys...too good to pass up especially with Christmas just around the corner!

Then Saturday we are off to the State Fair!! I am most excited about this. First, the people watching is awesome....and Two, I'm obsessed with funnel cakes, and yes, I will pay the admission fee just to walk in and indulge in a funnel cake. Not gonna lie that it is so worth it, and if I'm not feeling super guilty at that point, I might pop by the Wisconsin cheese stand for some fried cheese.

Are you hungry yet??
Happy Friday

I'm dying...

over JCrew's latest catalog! I mean, every time it comes in the mail, I drool over each page...BUT this time I had to pick my jaw up off the floor. I am seriously fancing every piece. Such ashame that my JCrew card got revoked. I mean, what's the fun in that?

Rainy Days...

Are the best kind of days, don't ya think?! As I sit here listening to the rain fall outside my window, with my pumpkin spice flavored coffee in hand, watching Kathie Lee and Hoda (my new fave morning show!) and watching my little munchkin sleep in her bouncy...I find myself dreaming. Dreaming about these lovelies (is that a word?!) and wishing I could be decked out in them when I have to brave the storm later today.

So, what's your favorite thing to do on a rainy day? I think you know what mine is ;)

Happy Thursday

Everyone needs a pair of Hunter Rain Boots (I'm still waiting for mine)...

and a Burberry Trench Coat (this too!)...



and a Vintage Umbrella...

and for those more casual days, a good North Face jacket will do just the trick...

Little Miss Lillian...

I don't think I could possibly love this child any more. My heart just melts when I look at her here!!!

Happy Wednesday

Pears & Bears

While visiting one of my favorite blogs, Fly Through Our Window, I stumbled across this adorable site with adorable clothes. Each month Darby at FTOW features different sponsers, and Kayce Hughes happens to be one of those for the month of October. Go ahead and take a peak at what this site has in store...happy shopping!

Don't you just love this navy corduroy dress below? First of all, it is great for this amazing fall weather we are having. And second, the look would be complete with a little skinny belt, and a great pair of either brown riding boots or cowboy boots. Terribly want to purchse!

This is such a classic and crisp looking white top, I love!! Would look great paired with a pair of black leggings, or a pair of skinny jeans and ballet flats (or TOMS)!

And well, the children's line is PRESH!! One sampling is below, but check out the rest here!!

It's a good thing my little one can hardly fit in her 0-3 month clothing because it's too big, otherwise I would be all over this site (although I'm pretty sure the hubs would not approve) :)
