the post with no name

I couldn't think of a good title for this post. It's kind of just a jumble of lots of things recently. So, here we go!

Woah! It's me! I hardly ever post pictures of myself on here unless they are from a photo shoot or something but I really liked this picture.

My lovely Valentine's day rose and movie tickets! The Vow was sooo good!

Valentine's day ice cream date!

Our "mean" puppy. I have no idea why she makes mean face all the time. She's so sweet.

She also likes to lay like a frog? She's goofy.

Fuzzy bear! This is after playing and rolling around on the floor.

"Playtime Momma?"

We are best buds.

Another weird way that she lays. It doesn't look comfortable but she lays like this a lot.

Looking mean again because I won't give her the toy.

Leap Day free cookie!!!!

Kind of been obsessed with them lately.

Sunny nap time.

Lazy bums. 

Precious little Princess.

Starbucks date.

My thrift finds from last weekend. I got all of this for $15!! A few of those books have been on my reading list for a while now so I was super excited that I found them!

This is her "I don't wanna get up and go to the vet" face.

Driving to my parent's house so we can take the baby to the vet to get spayed.

Yeah, I totally found this awesomeness for $5 the other day at a flea market. Perfect condition and it said the cassette has never been played! I pretty much love it.

What have you been up to lately?

Advent: Day 24

Day 24: enjoy some hot chocolate.

Fletcher's Mom got me a Keurig for Christmas!! I was so excited! We had to come back to my parents house and get it out and make hot chocolate!

Also, Fletcher got me 2 more mugs! Now we have matching Starbucks mugs.

Do you have any K-Cup suggestions??

new traditions

This year we've started a couple of new traditions. One of them is our Advent Calendar. It's been so much fun. The other is collecting the Starbucks Holiday ornaments.

I bought the Logo Evolution set of ornaments from Starbucks this year. They came with the 3 logos they've had and the Holiday ornament for this year.  

This is my whole collection so far. I have another ornament on it's way. It's a super cute Starbucks mug! 

Here are the 3 Holiday ornaments I have so far. I didn't get last years ornament. We hadn't started collecting yet so now I'm sad because I didn't realize I had 2008 and 2009 until today! 

Advent Day 6

Day 6: Make a paper chain.

Today the hubs finally got his cast off! YAY! We got to go to Starbucks and get celebratory drinks. 

We also went to Hobby Lobby and got some new ornaments and a few other decorations. 

We ended up making two paper chains. I made this one and hung it on the Christmas tree.

Fletcher helped me make the big one and it's hanging above our couch. Our house just keeps getting more and more festive!

vacation dreams

I have a top ten list of places I want to visit and the two places that are constantly battling for first are Paris, France and Seattle, Washington. Of course, Paris would most likely be my number one choice given the chance but since that would be a rather expensive endeavor I think that my next big vacation goal should be Seattle. Here's a little taste of the places I'd love to visit while I'm there. Keep in mind I have no clue when I will ever be able to visit but I hope that it is soon.

+Delancey is the pizza restaurant owned by Molly Wizenberg (Orangette) and her husband. Pizza happens to be my favorite food and her blog is one of my favorites as well so this is just a perfect fit for me!

+

I want to stay at The Ace Hotel. It looks so fun and like a much more exciting adventure than staying in a regular hotel. 

+

I am a sucker for places like this. Food, shopping, local products! I think this is right up my alley!

+

I think the Space Needle is a must for any first-time visitor.

+

I've heard so much about Top Pot Doughnuts and I love doughnuts so this is a must see!

+

I want to visit the first Starbucks and order a tall vanilla latte or preferably a pumpkin spice latte, that's assuming I visit during the fall.

Until then, I'll keep dreaming of the perfect Seattle getaway.
