My Very Own Piece of Magnolia Market

July 28, 2015 By Trina Miner Leave a Comment

Usually, birthdays are amazing, exciting moments for me. This year my boys made me gorgeous cards and put them on my pillow to find when I woke up. My parents and in-laws sent my mad money to buy something special. My hubby asked and asked and asked what I wanted for my birthday dinner.

However; this year I had no clue. In fact, I really wasn’t hungry.

I’m not sure what it is, but this year, I really wasn’t into the whole birthday celebration.

Maybe it is because I am trying to become more minimalist and not have things just for the sake of having things.

Maybe it is because we are doing a full on kitchen renovation {more on that later} and I have been too excited about those decisions to think about birthday cake.

Or maybe, it’s because I am now 39.

You think I am nuts. 

Coo- Coo. 

Crazy as a loon.

You are thinking….39 is so young. What are you complaining about? You have your health, an amazing career, an awesome family. Just be quiet and sit down.

I hear you.

 I really do. 

I have nothing to complain about.

It’s just that I have loved my thirties so much.  I do not want them to end.

I realize I need to make a few Miner adjustments. So, everyday when I  look at my little piece of Joanna Gaines – Fixer Upper – Magnolia Markets – slice of heaven – birthday present that I got from my hubby to remind myself that…

today is a good day for a good day.

And then maybe….just maybe…I’ll enjoy this last year of my thirties so much that 40 will rock!

P.S. My hubby is a genius. I was wondering how we would keep the rope from fraying after cutting it and tying it in a knot.  This is what he came up with….
 
  • Wet a paper towel and place it around the knot so the flame will not travel.
  • Then light the edges for a second or two them blow it out.  rope collage
