It is everything I hoped for and know our girl will love growing up in it! </span></span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><span style="color: #444444;">When we found out we were pregnant, I immediately began looking at nursery ideas. My favorite store is <a href="http://www.potterybarnkids.com/" target="_blank">Pottery Barn Kids</a>. This was my first stop when we found out we were having a girl. There is something super adorable about a little girls nursery. I saw <a href="http://www.potterybarnkids.com/design-studio/rooms/girls-nursery-smd1-13-2.html" target="_blank">this room</a> online and loved it. Hubby is a huge fisherman and I thought the sea theme would be right up his alley too. They happen to have the <a href="http://www.potterybarnkids.com/products/key-west-nursery-bedding/?pkey=e|key%2Bwest|5|best|0|1|24||3&cm_src=PRODUCTSEARCH||NoFacet-_-NoFacet-_-NoMerchRules-_-" target="_blank">key west bedding</a> set up in the store and it was just as fabulous in person. </span></span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></span></span>
<span style="font-family: "Trebuchet MS",sans-serif;"><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3;"><span style="color: #444444;">So without further adieu, I present our baby girl's nursery...</span></span></span><br />

I am officially ready for Valentine's Day and another reason to decorate my house. I'm getting out my Valentine's Day decorations this week and have been looking around some other blogs and websites for new inspiration. I'm still loving the decor I used from last year (which I will share once everything is complete), but I think it's fun to add in a new decor or DIY projects each year. </span><br />

Such a yummy warm comfy dish! It went great with our turkey shish kabobs and greek salad last night for dinner. </span></div>

You just randomly feel the need to complete a home project right then and there with little to no planning!? I would definitely consider myself a planner, but for some reason last night I was really in the mood for a quick project. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, last night after dinner I said to hubby, "I think I want to paint the garage door green". His response? "Yeah, sounds good," because clearly the Ravens vs. Patriots game is way more important than one of my many home project ideas. </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Let me get you up to speed on the door...it was sky blue. It has been sky blue since we bought the house. I do not know the back story on why it was painted (very poorly I might add), but I do know that if you live in North Carolina and are NC State and Duke fans, you do not need a <strike>Carolina</strike> sky blue door in your house. </span></span><br />

<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I am all for pops of color, but when it's the wrong color, it was time for it to go. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So, I headed downstairs, grabbed the green paint can and paint brush from the garage and proceeded to paint the door. I then got the "you're doing this right now?" comment from hubby at which I replied, "I told you I wanted to paint the door green." :)</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I wanted to use one of the current colors in the house so it would tie in with the current color scheme. I went with the same green that is in our half bathroom.</span></span><br />

I know I'm supposed to be starting the new year right with some healthy eating and should be posting some healthy yet yummy recipes right about now. Unfortunately, my head, definitely my stomach, and well pretty much all of me is longing to be back on a cruise ship in the middle of the Caribbean sea enjoying some family fun, sun and some incredible food. Calorie counting is not back on my radar yet. </span><br />
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I promise I'll get back on track right after I share this oh so delicious dessert recipe. The inspiration...</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">A warm deep dish chocolate chip cookie with vanilla ice cream we had on our first night on the ship. Quite possibly one of the best desserts I've ever tasted! So simple, but SO delicious!</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I was going through the cruise pictures on Saturday and had to recreate it. I had found a recipe for deep dish cookie pies on Pinterest several months ago, but never made it because I needed to be cruise ready...you know, in a bathing suit...in the middle of December. EEEK. This definitely was a pin now, make later deal. And since I'm already off the healthy wagon, why not make it before getting back on right?</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">So here's the recipe in all of its gooey, chocolaty glory. The key is to make it a little under baked. You want it to be a little doughy in the middle. :)</span></div>

Happy New Year! I am back after some fabulous family time and relaxation! Hubby and I unplugged for a while and spent our 2012 holiday season on a Caribbean cruise with my parents the week before Christmas and then spent Christmas in Florida with hubby's family. Once I get the pictures all organized I will be sharing some of my favorites. We are back now and ready for a great 2013! </span><br />

<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Who loves a good Christmas recipe? I love holiday cooking and baking! This sweet treat is super easy and super yummy! I grew up making these every year and still love them just as much now as I did when I was younger. Does anyone else make Santa Hats? </span><br />
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Here's what you will need...</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><b style="background-color: #f3f3f3;">Santa's Hats</b></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;">from My Doyle Life</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif; font-size: x-small;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">2 scoops (or as many as you would like or your glass will handle) cherry vanilla ice cream</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Ginger Ale</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Whipped cream</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Sprinkles (optional)</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You could also use pistachio or peppermint ice cream or really any flavor you like, but I've found these three are festive and the best for Santa's Hats. Otherwise, you'd just have a regular ice cream float, which I'm good with, just not so Christmas-y.</span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You could also get crazy and top it with a cherry...or two. :)</span></div>

We put up the tree a few weekends ago and have been thoroughly enjoying it!</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">We went to a tree lot that has trees from Big Meadow Mountain in North Carolina. I absolutely love the process of picking out our tree each year! I used to do this with my dad growing up which was so special! It's been fun to do this with my honey for the past couple of years for our own home!</span><br />
<br />

<br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I really like white lights on our tree with lots of colorful ornaments. We've been accumulating ornaments over the years and have some really special ones. </span><br />

Can you believe it's December 4th already? We are in full swing Christmas mode at the Doyle house! Today, I'd like to share my Christmas mantel with you. It was the first thing I worked on this year and I love it!</span><br />

<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I attended a Decorating a Mantel session at a design store holiday open house which is where I got my inspiration for this years mantel. The focus of the session was Ribbon, Ribbon, Ribbon. Their tip was to choose a ribbon that you love first, then work from there to add additional elements. </span></div>

<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">I have a gold color scheme going with red and green accents, so I first chose a gold ribbon that I really liked. I also wanted to add some natural elements with some berries and the </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">gold artichoke. The trees and the candle sticks on either side add nice height to the mantle.</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The wreath with red berries ties in more red and green and adds to the natural elements. I used a command strip hanger to attach the wreath to the mirror, so its not actually hanging by the gold ribbon around the top of the mirror. Nifty trick, huh?</span></div>

There is no mistaking the holiday at the Doyle house.</span><br />
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">The mantle is done, tree is up - just needs a few finishing touches, dining room table is decked out with the Christmas china, AND I made DIY Pinterest inspired holiday jars! I love Christmas! The idea came from Better Homes and Gardens <a href="http://www.bhg.com/christmas/indoor-decorating/christmas-decorating-with-kitchen-items/#page=7" target="_blank">decorating with kitchen items</a>. </span><span style="font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">This decor is really simply, really inexpensive and really pretty!</span></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span></div>
<div>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">You will need a few mason jars (as many as you want to up out), a bag of fresh cranberries, some greenery (I used sprigs from the bottom limbs of the tree that were trimmed off) and some tea lights. Since I already had everything but the cranberries, this was a fun and inexpensive way to add some holiday touches to my home!</span></div>

We had a wonderful holiday with family this past week! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Now that Thanksgiving is behind us, I am ready to get my Christmas decorating on! Okay, so I actually did this Christmas craft before Thanksgiving, oops. I guess its safe to say I've been more than ready to pull out the garland and tinsel this year! At least I showed Thanksgiving a little respect and blogged about it after, right?</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I've been seeing a lot of glittery Christmas candles in home decor stores recently, some to the tune of $20 bucks a pop. Yikes! This got me inspired. I decided I could make the same pretty glittery candles for much cheaper and could satisfy my DIY bug at the same time. A win, win!</span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Let's start with the guests to this DIY glitter candles party. I got a pack of 3 candles for $2.89 at <a href="http://www.gardenridge.com/" target="_blank">Garden Ridge</a>. Has anyone been there before? It's one of those big you-can-find-just-about-anything warehouse-y kind of places with really good prices. I got the glitter and the spray adhesive at <a href="http://www.michaels.com/" target="_blank">Michaels</a>. The glitter was about $3.00 total for regular gold glitter and some Martha Stewart tinsel glitter that was on clearance. The adhesive was about $6 but can be used again for many more projects. So the whole project was under $12 for 3 candles which is a whole lot better than $20 for one!</span></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyr1c8VV0staUQaclfSr7xjcHxKwAdoBPUQP8qHKx8VwVLCOn-HQ55bXutfDAID9S41Gf2bGcKiYkTqql2gq8ssGetUY-8H6c2KM4y6igv2rH39pDY4U42IpOmhdKRoaF6r1zLL_JSpDo/s1600/20121114_194139.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjyr1c8VV0staUQaclfSr7xjcHxKwAdoBPUQP8qHKx8VwVLCOn-HQ55bXutfDAID9S41Gf2bGcKiYkTqql2gq8ssGetUY-8H6c2KM4y6igv2rH39pDY4U42IpOmhdKRoaF6r1zLL_JSpDo/s400/20121114_194139.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">From there, the project is pretty straight forward. Spray the candles with the adhesive. I wrapped the wick in tape so it wouldn't get glue and glitter on it. The rolled each candle in the glitter. </span><br />

We have a lot to going on with a big Thanksgiving feast and mama's cooking (YUM!), a special birthday party for my Grandma, loving on my sweet new baby cousin, and a lot quality family time!</span><br />

<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">Well, the Christmas bug has bitten me early this year. Is anyone else in the mood to decorate for Christmas? Some ladies over at a few of my favorite blogs are hosting a <a href="http://www.tenjuneblog.com/2012/11/2012-christmas-cheer-holiday-link-party.html" target="_blank">Christmas Cheer Link Party</a> December 4th - 20th. I participated in a <a href="http://mydoylelife.blogspot.com/2012/10/fall-decor-link-party.html" target="_blank">Fall Decor link party</a> in October and it was a blast! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'll be sharing a Christmas craft, mantel, tree, recipe, and attire here on the blog so be sure to come and check it out! Isn't this fun! :)</span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">I'm already getting down those red and green storage boxes and sorting through my Christmas decorations, while of course playing some Christmas music throughout the house! </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><br /></span>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;">It's the most wonderful time of the year!</span></div>

I know meatloaf doesn't really have the best reputation, but I promise, it can be delicious! Just give it a chance. At least check out this recipe. I think it will surprise you! </span></span><br />
<br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span style="color: #444444;">On Sunday I made a modified version of The Pioneer Woman's <a href="http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2010/09/my-favorite-meatloaf/" target="_blank">meatloaf</a>. If you are <strike>obsessed</strike> a fan like I am, you know her recipes are super yummy! But, if you are like me, you can't always eat the all the whole milk and real butter you want. It's sad, isn't it?! </span></span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></span>
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span style="color: #444444;">Anyway, back to the meatloaf. </span></span><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; color: #444444; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;">The changes I made are super simple but can make a big difference for a healthier meal during the week. </span><br />
<span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span style="color: #444444;"><br /></span></span><span style="background-color: #f3f3f3; font-family: 'Trebuchet MS', sans-serif;"><span style="color: #444444;">Her recipe calls for ground beef, which I replaced with ground turkey. We've been using ground turkey as a beef substitute for a lot of recipes recently and we really like it. I also used non-fat milk instead of whole milk and sliced whole wheat bread instead of white bread. Here's the recipe I used. It was delicious! Moist and extremely flavorful! </span></span><br />
