pleased that I took the time to do a 3+ mile hike with a friend on Saturday. dreaming of doing family hikes all over Texas starting with some in this book. craving these bars that Erin posted about on Instagram…so much that I bought all the supplies to make them. obsessed with the sampler patterns by Little House Needleworks. planning to make my own holiday minibook this year. brainstorming more breakfast ideas. perfecting my Christmas and new baby wish lists. searching for the perfect thrifted dresser. realizing that I only have three more months of pregnancy (if I’m lucky) and I have hardly done a single thing to prepare. cherishing every baby kick. wondering when I’ll find time to do…

quick takes

October 25, 2013

I don’t know how “quick” this will be today as I seem to have a lot on my mind but here we go. (Check out more quick takes here.) one This week has been super busy and work has been tough and I know this is true because I have been almost completely absent on social media, and also I have been eating horribly. I mean I don’t usually eat great  but this week has been particularly bad. I guess I’m okay for breakfast and lunch, but then I’ve been snacking so much in the afternoons and dinner has just been fast food  or nothing (mostly because of time constraints and lack of planning). Anyway, I feel gross and this…

quick takes

Linking up! one The internet is a pretty cool place sometimes. Someone who had just bought the midnight edition of Project Life emailed me about doing a trade for some of the seafoam cards that I have, and I just got her package in the mail yesterday. So now I don’t have to buy the whole midnight edition and I can work those cards into my spreads! Pretty excited. two This week I had to place an order for a book I want to give to a friend (and none of my local bookstores had it) so I thought it only made sense to order one more thing to get the free shipping…right?

around here // rainy weekend

October 14, 2013

Sorry for the picture overload today but it was a good weekend. We went with all of David’s family to a local pumpkin patch first thing Saturday morning before the rain hit, and even though it was hot and muggy (I mean, it’s the middle of October so why wouldn’t it be?) the kids had such a good time. The highlight was riding ponies and the petting zoo. Super cute. Then it turned rainy and miracle of miracles, Meredith was in a good mood the entire weekend, took decent naps on both days, and even entertained herself for a lot longer than usual. I was able to actually do some crafting while she was awake! I made a lot of…
