Everyday Elam

I promised pictures of my dark hair, and here it is:

As the brown has faded a little, highlights are starting to show through and I like it a lot better. This is a pic from our church's Valentine's Dinner last Saturday night.

We also had our official "unveiling" of our new place for our friends! Last night (for the Superbowl) we cooked out for our friends who helped us move as a way of saying thanks. We are so blessed to have friends that were willing to spend their Saturday morning/afternoon helping us last month. God has been so good to us! In order to get ready for the big day, I spent about 2+ hours in HomeGoods and spent way too much money. I finally have everything the way I want it. In the next pics you'll see my bathroom completely done. My AMAZING sis-in-law, Jaime, added a strip of damask to a plain black shower curtain for me. It turned out beautifully! I decided to accent with green instead of red and I love the way it looks!

This may not be exciting to some, but I am estatic about my next find. Hopefully by now you know Jordan and I love Ireland, so St. Patty's day is a big deal for us. I am super picky about decorations, and have been on the lookout for the perfect St. Patrick's day dishes for several years, and I finally found some I adore! This might have been my favorite purchase at Home Goods!
