This is my sixteenth week hosting this Currently link up, please join me this week or next or the week after, or any time you can join in, I would Love to hear from you!

Creating... Teacher Appreciation Week gifts! This was just one of the gifts we will give to his teacher this week on a pack of Post It notes. I created it with Rhonna Designs, printed & attached to the front of the Post It's! Other gifts throughout the week include hand soap, nail polish & lip balm!

Hoping...and praying that my husband can build this pergola some how, some way over top of our current deck! It sounds like it might change the layout of our deck a little, but it is gorgeous!

Pinning... These gorgeous lights! "If" we are able to build a pergola, I want these lights hung from it! Eeekkk!! I am so excited!

Eating... A meal in a glass at Sobelman's in Milwaukee, Wisconsin this past Friday. It was delicious as usual. How can you go wrong with pickles, olives, cheese, beef stick, cheeseburger, celery, mushroom, asparagus and more all in a Bloody Mary?? You only need one!

Thankful for... A relaxing & beautiful girls weekend in Milwaukee! The weather was perfect, the sun was shining and we enjoyed time outside together. 

The homemade fire pit that we dug out of an old flower bed was the one of the highlights! Nothing better than sitting around a campfire and catching up with girlfriends on a beautiful spring evening!
Happy Monday, I hope you will join me!

  4. I love that Pergola. I've wanted one since we've moved in and I still don't have it :( It is still on my wish list though.

    My school is doing Teacher Appreciation a little different this year and is doing it every Friday in May instead of just all in one week. So we started last week with door decorating and all the kids in the class decorated stars to go on the doors. This week is cards so gift cards and/or the kids can make a card. Easy peasy. Well I say that but we haven't done it yet so I'm sure we will be scrambling at the end. LOL

  6. Wow, that decking and pergola is amazing.

    I'm astounded by the burger 'meal'. How on earth do you eat that without dropping food in the drink?!

  7. Do pergolas offer shade? That is what we need on our patio big time!! I always find them to be SO beautiful. I have a blogger friend from STL that did one I think last summer or maybe it was two summers ago and she blogged about it and gave instructions. I can send it your way if you want to read it. I am going to link up with you next Monday!

  8. I've always wanted a pergola after my brother in law built one and we hung twinkle lights and grew a gorgeous climbing plant up the sides. Such an amazing place to relax and have a drink or just kick back!
