busy bee

right now i am out on the road with pete. canada has been awesome so far and it has been so fun to watch the shows the lights are pretty amazing! i will post some pics later on...

we get back monday so i will be back to reality. we move tuesday!!! it is all that has been on my mind lately. dreaming of how i will decorate it, where everything will go, and how cozy it will be!
i wouldn't mind it looking something like this...

the finished project!

finally i finished a craft project! i am horrible at starting something, getting bored with it, and then giving up. even though i really wanted to stop half way with this thing {cutting out tons of little felt circles isn't exactly enthralling :)} i am so glad i didn't give up. to think this lamp was on it's way to goodwill last week. it will now have a place in our new little home {i am thinking spare bedroom night stand}

pete is out of town. geesh. i don't like sharing him with people. i get so mopy when he is gone.

something to look forward to though, we are going to seattle next week!!! i have never been and cannot wait to see all the pretty sites. anyone have any suggestions on where to go while we are there?

also...planning on this haircut,
ready for a change. now if i could look like her and have her wardrobe too!

happy early weekend

i am going home to stl tonight! so excited to see fam and celebrate the 4th with them. i get to see this face tonight...
how lucky am i? i hope he shaves.

love love.

dessert anyone?

this is gonna be my new dessert. i will bake it for friends' birthdays, party's, anytime a dessert is needed this is what i am gonna bring. seriously. hopefully i won't eat it all by myself though. so you can start inviting me to all your party's. delicious.via vanilla sugar

half a year

ago...that is 6 months ago yesterday pete and i said "i will" i can't believe how fast time goes by. pretty soon we will be celebrating 6 years! :) ahh marital bliss. love you hubs!

so when are we gonna have babies?? cus obviously that is what comes next, right? well its gonna be awhile just so we can sleep. we like sleep alot. so until i can give up my needed 9 hours that is when we will be ready. and we want to travel and stuff. you know?
but seriously if it happened tomorrow we would be happy (right babe? ;))
i can tell i am gonna be a good mom though. i am already thinking of how i would decorate the little room! and that is what babies really want right? a cute room. whenever i go to the flea market and something little catches my eye that would only serve a purpose in a baby room...i buy it. well sometimes. like this...
okay like i have never ever seen anything as cute as this! it is a vintage children's game board with the cutest animals i have ever seen! seriously i am going to frame it and put it in our future kid's room. they will love me for it! haha and pete was with me when i got it. he gave his approval and i talked the lady down to $10 for this sweet thing.
seriously i can't wait to decorate a room for a baby. it would be filled with the whole line of Target's shabby chic. that stuff just kills me! my whole house would look frilly and old ladish if i could. but i try to respect pete and not make him live in a doilie. but my child will! hahaha. even if it is a boy.


just to make sure everyone knows...
I AM NOT PREGNANT. this is just what i think about sometimes. i am not crazy, am i?
