4 Men 1 Lady

$250. giveaway to Plush Rugs.

As promised, I’m back this week with a fab giveaway from Plush Rugs!
Last week I revealed our basement family room…
It was lovely but we first and foremost needed an area rug to anchor the space and define a seating arrangement.

The Mr. couldn’t understand why would need to cover up our brand new floor with a rug.
I started with my decorator’s speech about the fine art of layering to which his eyes glazed over.
All I needed to say was, “So your little toes-ies don’t get cold.” That did it.

The rug in our living room is called Fargo by Surya in Mushroom.
I love, love, love, love, love love, love it.
I fussed over the decision for weeks.
I wanted something durable, dark, soft underfoot, something with texture but that didn’t show foot prints or vacuum lines.

Tall order.
This one completely fits the bill.

So now I get to share the love!
Plush Rugs is giving away a $250.00 gift certificate to use towards a rug of your choice!

One of THOSE weeks…

21 Feb 7 Comments

I know, I know.
I said I would be back on Wednesday with a phenomenal giveaway from Plush Rugs and here it Friday and still no giveaway.

To say, “It’s been one of THOSE weeks” sounds so cliche but seriously, IT’S BEEN ONE OF THOSE WEEKS!
The kind of week where you think it can’t get any worse.

3 kids + 2 parents ALL with coughs and colds.

Then…

3 kids + 2 parents ALL contract the stomach flu.

Just when we come up for a breath…

The youngest kiddlet gets his tooth knocked out playing with his brothers (total freak accident).

To make matters worse…

The Mr. decides to pass out while administering first aid.

It gets better but I’ll stop there…

I think we have “those kind of weeks” to keep us in check. They’re tests.
Unfortunately, I’m afraid that all those inspirational quotes I have pinned about having a good attitude and long suffering and patience didn’t cross my mind once this week.
Nope.
I pretty much failed at handling all pressure-cooker situations with grace.
But, it’s all good.
My wise dad always tells me…

So there you have it. Bring it on life…what else you got?!
(No, no. He, he! Just kidding. I’ve had my fill. No more. That’s it. I’m good).

While you’re contemplating that, head on over to Plush Rugs and see what floor eye candy they have in stock. Giveaway coming at ya next week.
For Real This Time!

Happy weekend!

Basement Family Room Reveal.

18 Feb 54 Comments

Today is the day.
Basement family room reveal day!
This project has been over 2 years in the making…
1 1/2 years of talking and dreaming, 1 year of construction, 4 major arguments, 2,358 gray hairs and 54 trips to Home Depot.
Regardless of the stress and headache, the basement is D-O-N-E and we are H-A-P-P-Y (and still married).

A brief revisit of where we started when we were still bright eyed and bushy tailed…
