Atlanta parrotheads united at Lakewood to spend a day tailgating and cocktailing in festive anticipation of Jimmy Buffett taking the stage last night. It’s a revered and not to be missed tradition in this family – I think I’ve only been absent from two shows in my eighteen years (gasp!) in Atlanta. 
With sangria, margaritas and “Chef D-Flay” cookin’ up cheeseburgers in paradise, we had a rollickin’ good time with a group of dear (and sorely missed) friends from our old neck of the woods… 
…and we spent the night dancing in our bare feet and singing a the top of our lungs to Buffett’s iconic beach music. Much to my extreme delight, Zac Brown took to the stage twice during the night. (The real ZB, not his doppleganger that had me all in a tizzy at last year’s tailgate.) I mean, it just doesn’t get any better than Brown and Buffett in my book!!! Such a treat!! 
Fins up, y’all! xoxo Concert pic courtesy of Buffett World.

The… Read More
The Optimist
Y’all, I was positively beside myself to spend Wednesday evening dining at The Optimist, Midtown West’s chicest new eatery, with the marvelous gals behind calliespondence and Buncolator. I swear, befriending Callie, Catherine and Lindsay is one of the best things to come from this little blog! Coming on the heels of JCT Kitchen – only… Read More
Another Ikea Chair Makeover
Almost exactly a year ago I attempted to show y’all how I spruced up a couple of nineteen dollar Ikea chairs with a custom, monogrammed, DIY slip cover. And coincidentally, I’m back three hundred and sixty-something days later with a second custom, monogrammed, DIY Ikea chair makeover! Now, since I needed only two of these… Read More
First Summer Vacation Ever
Until the PCP started Kindergarten last fall, life for the W boys was pretty much a permanent vacation. I sat down with the PCP before school let out and we made a little bucket list of things to do on the W Boy’s FIRST Summer Vacation Ever! I printed it out on cardstock, we’ve tacked… Read More
Monster Bash Birthday Fete
My favorite nephew Bird celebrated his third birthday with a monster-train bash like none other. Sister and her Mister and Mother pulled out all the stops to celebrate the momentous occasion in style. Sit back, relax and prepare to be wowed by the thought, care and brilliance that went into the fete… The invitations had… Read More
Porch Progress {Week 6}
Even with Monday’s holiday, we still saw some good progress on the porch last week! For starters, the fireplace insert is in! We went with a 42” box that’s wood burning with a gas starter. It will be bricked up on the inside…fingers crossed that’ll happen this week. Honey picked up the screen door we… Read More
