DIY Stained Cabinets {Master Bathroom}

I am so happy to finally show y'all our master bathroom update. I have been working on our bathroom cabinets for the last three days and I'm so happy it's finally done!

Just to remind you what they looked like before...the 90's called and they want their oak cabinets back!

I used General Finishes Java Gel Stain. I can't say enough great stuff about this product. And, instead of me telling y'all the directions, I followed this YouTube tutorial exactly and they turned out better than I ever imagined!
If you have any questions, please ask! I feel like I have got the swing of how to work with this product. Next week I am tackling our kitchen cabinets! 
Things left to update in our master bathroom:
- counters - faucets - door knobs - floors - do something with the mirror - new light fixture - valance above the window

WIWW: July 4th Edition + Link Up

In the spirit of the Fourth of July I decided to throw on my current obsession in my closet right now; this skirt. Y'all, I am not one to swoon over clothes because I am more of a tennis shoe swooner, but this skirt is the bomb-digity. It is flowy and vibrant and so comfy!
Being 5'3" I have to wear it higher up so it doesn't drag the ground, but I could wear it lower and pair it with wedges. It is so versatile!
Also, this Gap top is my jam. I am all about the sleeveless tanks during the summer here in Texas. Sleeves = sweaty pits. #justbeinghonest I also bought it in plain white and have worn both of them multiple times. When they go on sale at the end of the season I am going back to get more. They're just so perfect!
These shoes have been in my weekly rotation since I bought them a couple months ago. I never knew Old Navy made such comfortable and stylish shoes. Where have I been? Under a rock?! I also bought the black ones because if the shoe is comfy, buy it in every color.
Randoms:
- Everyone had a lot of funnies to say about my "Day in the Life of a Stay at Home Wife" post. Y'all even requested me do another one, so I am working on that! It will be just as g-l-a-m-o-r-o-u-s.
- Have you seen the show on E! called Botched? I'm kinda obsessed and I don't know why. I used to love the show Doctor 911 and this is similar.
- The Bachelorette this season is pretty good. Josh is...mmmmm! Totally my type, as Chris would say. Even Chris said, "That's a good looking dude, but he waxes his eyebrows." Nick is dumb and I don't like him. Farmer Chris is too cute and Marcus is just a normal 'ol dude. 
- I am almost done staining our bathroom cabinets and I cannot wait to show y'all the results! It is looking really good!
- I haven't been swimming one time this summer and it really bums me out. I grew up with a pool next door at my aunt's house, so I swam every. single. day. In Texas, you need a pool! We are saving our pennies to hopefully install one! The whole reason I wanted a big yard was to have a pool. We have the big yard, now my hubs needs to help me make the pool happen! Ahhh!
Now for the link up!
- All I ask is you link back to my blog and link to a specific post. 
- Write about something fashion related :)

Easy Shrimp and Scallops

I told y'all last week about our trip to Napa, but I think I forgot to tell y'all that we bought five bottles of wine when we were there (insert nervous smiley face here). I know it sounds like a lot, but it makes better financial sense to buy the wine there because you have to pay a tasting fee at each winery, but if you buy a bottle of wine then the tasting fee gets credited towards the bottle(s) you buy, so...when in Rome, right? Great justification, Sarah.
Anyways, a lot of the wine we bought we got told would pair nicely with sauteed shrimp and scallops, so we decided to try it out.

This recipe is so easy and only took about ten minutes!
- 1 lb of peeled shrimp - we bought ours from Albertson's and then peeled them ourselves. You can use whatever is easy for you.
- 1/4 lb of scallops - I am not a huge scallops fan, but Chris wanted some.
- Half a stick of butter - remember, we live in the south...everything we eat is loaded with butter. 
- The juice of one lemon
- 1 package of dry Italian dressing mix
- A dash of salt, pepper, garlic salt, and onion powder
Directions:
In a skillet, melt your butter. Once melted, add your shrimp and scallops. Add (or sqeeze) the juice of one lemon into the skillet. Add all the other seasonings and Italian mix.
Saute until shrimp are opaque and firm.
The mixture makes sort of a sauce, so I boiled just a few noodles to serve with it, but that it totally optional. The Tucker's love their carbs, so we try to fit them in at every meal :)
Enjoy!
