All Things Ackerman...or German!

Last month we celebrated Nadia and Bennett's Birthday, I even watched my little German boyfriend one evening while Nadia was off at school...and to top things off...Nadia invited me to a delicious brunch on Sunday at the Phoenician! What a special treat that was.

The little tower above was full of treats before we got our hands on it. We enjoyed shrimp, steak, french toast, french fries, fruit, eggs, etc etc etc. I ate so much I had a headache and had to take a nap!

Nadia digging in.


Me and Bennett hanging out during the Super Bowl.

Is he cute or what? He looks exactly like Nadia's Dad.


Hanging on the couch watching Ice Road Truckers.



He was cracking me up. The flash was apparently too bright for him so he would laugh and cover his eyes everytime I would snap a pic.


Playing at the Train Park for Bennett's Birthday.



Yep, he has 2 pieces of cake.

We went bowling for Nadia's Birthday.

I was definitely the Loser for the evening.

Nadia and Thom

Representing KS! Ya-hoo.



It is really fun having the Ackermans back in AZ!

















Heart Day !










This weekend was all things Boo! Hope everyone had a lovely day!

Welcome to our bedroom...

Per Traci's request, she wanted to see my bedroom these days...I recently hung some antique hats that Traci found for me and I have new bedding thanks to a wonderful wedding gift! I tried to capture some of my favorite things in my bedroom. Enjoy ; )
Zen's favorite place


Love this.


A piece of Buck's art from back in the day.


Love my Mac mascara and paint.

Can't live without Bag Balm for my lips.

Love notes from my Boo.

Too many purses?


Love the 2 little kids in bunny costumes...and my favorite pic from Jess and Matt's wedding.


Buck's little boy Kutter. His face is priceless.

Love the little details on my lamp.

Watch your face if you step into my space.


My Boo in his prime. He was a pretty darn good swimmer. And, some self help books. Always looking for ways to improve...; )

My glasses and a backup pair provided by Traci.

A sweet little antique plate from Traci. I love the strawberry.
Chipped to perfection.


Jayla, Kutter, Hayden and Case. You may notice a ballerina on her side..from one of my birthday cakes as a little girl. And, the famous cat tag that reads "Will you marry me?"

A pretty silk scarf from Traci.


Traci, Dad, myself before Church at the home we grew up in.


Love this little picture of my momma.

Three of my favorite belts. I love how skinny the pink one is. The rabbit and his eye really impress me.

Kent's Grandpa, Freeman, in front of U of A. Looks like Kent.

I love the details on the antique mirror to the left and the frame to the right.


Love this ring accented in tiffany blue. Traci found it for my wedding and it could not be more perfect. There is a silver ring resting in it..it is a ring my Dad gave my Mom when they were married.


Erin created this super cool little card to get us excited for our next Girls Trip! She is so talented.

This tiny little dog photo was in some of my Grandma Bruce's old photos. It is precious.


This picture perfectly captures my life as a middle child. Traci was always so sweet and helpful to Buck. I unfortunately have that look on my face in one too many pictures.


One of the things I loved about our engagement pics by Kimberly Bee was the watermelon patch. I think this little poof of green really brings out the watermelons.


The curtain.

The color of this hat is out of this world. I bet the lucky lady who wore it looked so classy.



The detail on this one is so amazing.


I love having them all above our closet.


New shelves. I plan to prop and overlap pictures. As you can tell, I have not finished this project yet.


My love.

Kent almost took the frame down lastnight as he is very scared it will fall on our heads and cut our heads open while we are sleeping.

Good-night!
