He’s handsome, makes me laugh
with his silly faces, and this year we
get to enjoy Christmas together!

We spent the weekend celebrating Christmas with
all sorts of family, and it was wonderful. One of the
coolest things about being married is having double

Right after moving into our cute apartment,
I made a whole bunch of these sweet little
magnets to decorate our blank fridge.

Are you feeling jolly yet? After wrapping a whole

Sorry for being so absent this last week, friends.
Work has gotten wonderfully busy, and my head has been
jammed full of spaces and inspiration for my clients.

It’s been a nutty, busy day around these parts,

Hope your Wednesday is cool :)

little adventure →
The sun was shining, we had the day off
and no real plans to speak of. So why not
climb the giant rock on the west side?
It seemed like a good idea to me,
so up we went…

We did some shopping this weekend,
but I can’t help but think that these
qualities would make for a better work

where are you from? →
I get a kick out of this map. Yes, I know
that it’s one giant stereotype - and frankly -
kind of insulting, but it cracks me up.
(Plus the typography rocks!)
What do you…
coffee time →
Maybe you’re not an addict like me,
but in my world, morning doesn’t really start
until I’ve had those first sips of coffee.
Hubs & I have today off, and I’m looking

Ever notice how quiet it is on a foggy morning?
It’s like the world wakes up a little more slowly,
and everything takes longer to get up to normal speed.
Or maybe that’s just…

and I promise you will be a hero to the
bacon lovers in your life. :)

little moments →
I was walking across a grocery store
parking lot the other day, when a perky
jingle started playing. As I looked around
trying to figure out where the tinny music
was coming…
happy things →
Because it’s Friday and the sun is shining,
a happy list seems appropriate…
1. Apple Streusel French Toast.
Oh my lands, this stuff was good!
Thank you, Cracker Barrel…

We have way too many apples sitting

It’s been a busy week, and I’m feeling pretty

I’ve been cracking up over this kiddo
costume for a couple of weeks now,
so figured I should probably share.
It makes me want to have a child, just

I love this promise.
I still find it amazing that the Creator of the

and am grateful for daily, practical help.

It was great fun to be cute little tourists
