House Update: Countertops! FINALLY

After months of heartbreak (having my contractors tell me time and time again after each piece of blue granite and quartz I chose was unavailable), finally we found some blue pieces that would work! Lesson to everyone...if you are persistent (and stubborn enough) you can get some things you want in your house.

NACS Show 2012

This week Dadio, Mama Berry, and I attended the NACS (National Association of Convenience Stores) Show in Vegas. It was exhausting (my legs may never recover from all the walking), fun, educational, and we came home with lots of ideas implement (which equates to lots of work ahead). 

so many people...

I got to play Plinko! A real dream come true. Jack Berry would have loved it!

 And this beauty would look great in my entryway!
