Doing the Happy Dance

We all know the wonderful feeling we get when our home is featured by another blog.  
What’s even better though, is when you get to share that honor
with your husband.   My husband did SO much tearing down,
building and rebuilding, wiring and plumbing, and then he stepped aside
and let me do what I love to do…decorate!  He gave me the
“canvas” on which I could “paint” to my heart’s content.
I tell him every single time another blog features our kitchen.
He may not act excited, but I know inside he is proud, and feels
rewarded for his work also.
So what could be the icing on the cake?
I’ll tell you, it’s having the Miss Mustard Seed choose
our kitchen as the sole feature for Furniture Feature Friday today!
I had no idea she was featuring it until I went
to visit the party and it’s a good thing I didn’t
have a mouth full of soda, because I would have
spit it all over my monitor in excitement!

 My 17 year old son was sitting across the kitchen table from me,
so I implored him to come look at my computer.
He looked…then patted me on the back and said, “That’s great, Mom.”
Not feeling terribly rewarded by his response,
I skipped back to my bedroom, carrying my computer,
and exclaimed, “Honey, LOOK!…Miss Mustard Seed Featured US!”
His response was a little more enthusiastic than my son’s.
“So, are you going to go add her little picture to your blog?”
(meaning her Featured button)
“Heck, Yeah! – and I’m gonna write a post about it too!”

A few minutes later, my older son walked in the door,
so of course, he was subjected to reading about the feature also.
I got a high-five from him.

Then I called my mom.
“Mom, go to your computer and type in
Miss Mustard Seed dot com.”

She called me back a few minutes later.
My mother shows a lot more excitement than my kids and husband do,
and she reads my blog every day, so she was thrilled about the feature too.

She’s coming later this month to visit, so I can’t wait
for her to see the changes we’ve made to the house since
she was here last fall.

The incredible Gail @ My Repurposed Life
also featured our kitchen this week at her Catch as Catch Can party.
Her blog is one of the very first blogs I discovered
when I first started reading blogs.
I was in awe over her skills with hand tools and read
every single one of her posts – many of them several times.
Thank you so much, Gail!
(and is her blog header cute, or what?!)
My Repurposed Life™
And Tammy @ Homespun Happenings
also featured our kitchen this week at her new party called
Rustic Restorations Weekend.   If you haven’t linked up at
her party yet, I hope you’ll go do so now and
support her growing party.

Though it’s WAY nice to have a well-known blog, like Miss Mustard Seed
feature my home, I appreciate EVERY SINGLE BLOG
that has featured it and have added every blog’s button to my
sidebar, and I encourage you to share your posts at all their parties.
Thank you Marian, Gail and Tammy!

Blessings,
Angie
