1st flip - update

OK, Ok, ok... Sorry I didn't explain about this flip that I'm doing. The book was thrown at me for not telling all {mom}. Here I go... I've just been hired by an amazing team of investors to do all the Interior Design for their homes that they purchase for rentals {space planning, purchase of furniture/accessories & install} & for flipping {gut & go}. I'm so honored & thrilled that I have been chosen. Yaaaa I can say I'm the chosen one!!!! This is a huge dream of mine to do my own house flipping... One day or should I say in due time! I will keep you updated throughout this project. I'm so excited & a little nervous... This is my 1st one with them so I need to shine like no tomorrow. So far so good! They seem to be very happy & like everything that I've suggested & picked out {color}... Here's a few pictures of removal of the shrubs in the front yard. The garage was open so I didn't get that shot...

1st flip

- exterior before shots -

It was time...

I sat back & realized that Taylor need a little clean up in the hair department. Her hair was all over the place... Long, long, long. I will admit I love her long gorgeous strawberry blond locks & I was so scared to cut it or even trim it. The thought of losing her little curls terrified me {she's growing up}. I can't tell you how many comments I get from her hair... I didn't want it to stop. But, after analyzing it & realizing that the bottom hair was just dead & dry... It need to go. Plus, she had never had a hair cut. For those of you who don't know Taylor that well or at all she is 100% girly girl. Loves manicures, pedicures, dressing herself, spending time with mommy & carrying a purse so asking Taylor to get a hair cut was going to be easy! She was on cloud nine! Look at what a big girl she was...

Sat back with easy & didn't fuss what so ever!

Taylor realized that she liked it & felt like a princess getting her hair washed. That's my girl!

Then it was time to trim & clean up...

Look at this mess. It's just screaming... Help me!

Did as she was told & didn't move.

Just a clean up... Please!

Look at her little hand. This just melts my heart! Waiting patiently! I just want to eat her up!

cut... cut... cut

Watching her hair fall... & listening to the direction...

Super happy that she had her 1st hair cut! Glowing like a big girl!

Not that much was cut off... Thank goodness. The stylist listened to me, Hmmm maybe I need to start going to her. How funny would that be.

The big girl blow out!

Ta da... Need I say more... She's glowing from her 1st big girl haircut!

If my baby is happy, I'm happy!

Let's pretend TODAY {Taylor}

This is my playhouse...

Mommy's good friend Jen, gave me this chair to read in... So cool & comfy!

I put my shoes on for school sitting on this bench...

I picked fresh peonies today out of my garden I planted... for my room.

Can't put this book down... Love, love, love the color pink! I so can read {not really}

Can't live without this Belt... I'm all about the bling, bling!

Went shopping & found this little number... Too precious!

Ran around with my friends at Pre-School in my new hot turquoise converse!

You are never too young to have a strand of classic pearls! {That's what my mommy said!}

My brother & I love playing on this vintage little table.

I think I will just wear this little A line dress to a Christmas party that I'm going to tonight... I might see Santa & I want to look pretty for him!

I'll just throw this gorgeous flower up in my hair tonight too... Love looking so feminine. Or as my girlfriend says, So Stylish!

Daddy said, I could eat this before bed... Yummy!

Just cruised Highway 101 in this beauty....


Hi Santa... I know you're watching me! I've been a very good girl this year.

Don't you just LOVE to pretend... I do!
:: Dare to DREAM ::

Hmmm... How do I get this home with me right NOW?

Maybe Santa Claus can put it on the back of his sleigh.... Great Idea!

I have Santa's number on Speed dial {Sometimes you have to call Santa to tell him how the kids are doing}... I will call him right now!

Yaaaaaaa

Love of my life... Sean!

{look at little wild thing, Ryan}
