Beach

Off to the beach! But more importantly, I'm off to go see my favorite little man in the whole universe. I haven't seen him since Christmas. Will also be bringing him back with us for a whole week when we come back Friday. I'm so excited! Of course, I haven't packed yet. Giggles. PS. Happy 300th post to me!

Let the Color In

Spring is Here! Oh, can one soul be so giddy? Yes. Yes, it truly can and it's me!

This weekend, I was able to go and spend the weekend at SVU (Southern Virginia University) and watch my cousin Skyler play for their baseball team. For those who may not know, SVU is a small University set in a Gorgeous old Victorian mansion, ran by Latter Day Saint members.

It upholds and places each student to retain church values and strive for hard work and dedication in all things. Saturday was just pure magical in it's simple simplicities of the sun shining, the nostalgia of watching a baseball game and the crisp, cool breezes of the birth of Spring. Not to mention but watching cute baseball buns on those baseball players was an extra plus (wink) Oh how I just love that my cousin is on the baseball team and that his coach....is cute & single (giggles). Pictures to come soon when I decide to float back down to earth from being miss lazy mazy in the Spring giddiness.

...You're Lucky Enough

"If your lucky enough to be Irish, You're lucky Enough"
I've always liked that little saying and I'm sayin it today!

Last night on the phone with my nephew, I asked if he new what today was going to be. I heard him silently name the past two days and go..."It's a Wednesday." I said yes, but it's also St. Patricks Day and you MUST wear green.
He then pointed out that it was still....a Wednesday LOL
The little smart stinker. Made me Laugh!

Happy Irish luck to you!

Feathers and Flowers

Are my inspiration today. The RS birthday dinner is this Thursday.

And my center pieces just might be inspired by this. Today, I'm off to explore flower shops.

Isn't that such a lovely task for a Monday?

Shoes Sing to Me

I adore my new nine west heels. I saw them. Tried them on. And then, they simply sang my sweet name for purchase. Spring is defiantly on it's way. Oh, how I love thee. The End.

Eclipse Movie Trailer

Bring it on. Bring it on! Bring it ON!!!

Dont Worry, I'll Remember Rob!

Oh Robert Dearest...I'll be seeing you THIS Friday. March 12th to be exact. It can't come soon enough. I'm ever so thrilled just to see you again up on the big screen. However, I'm not so sure on how it will be seeing you with a new leading lady. Oh well. Whatever happens in this story, I shall be sitting there with my glasses on, junior mints in hand ready to soak. you. up. Love, Me. PS. I just heard that the Eclipse trailor will be shown during the previews for Remember Me. Wild horses couldnt keep me away. (giggles)

Yelled at by a Seven yr. Old

Tonight, I made my nightly phone call

to my nephew who lives at the beach (Lucky).

The conversation went like this.

Me: Hey sweetie, Whatcha doin?

Angelus: Hey, Did you mail the girl cookies (meaning girl scout cookies) that granny bought me?

Me: Which ones? I didnt know we were suppose to mail you some.....

Angelus: Ya know, my favorites with the peanut butter.

Me: Really! Mine too! Abouut that.....

Angelus: Tear-ra (how he pronounces my name, it's too cute) did YOU eat my cookies!?!?!

Me: Well....I didnt know we were sending them too you sweetie and they were SO GOOD

Angelus: TEAR-RA!!! THOSE. WERE. MINE!!!

Oops. Looks like I'll be trackin down another girl scout.

Beyond Stunning

Kristen Stewart, YOU my dear know how to pick a dress.

Simply everything an Oscar dress should look like. You look radiant.

The only thing that good have made me love you even more from your walk down the Oscar walk,

was if Rob was there with you.

Pictured Like This {Christmas 2009}

I know. I know. I know. It's March. Yep. I get that. But, remember I'm tryin to catch my blog up on all pictures of big things from the end of last year. So. Here you go loveys. This is my house throughout the Christmas Holiday season. We started off at the beginning of December a little shaken because Lee and Angelus moved away. So, for the complete shock to us all, we bought a real Christmas tree to help us get in a better mood for Christmas. It. Was. So. Pretty & Full. And...I didn't kill it! LOL We had a great Holiday with them coming home for Christmas but I have to say, I was glad when it was over.
Enjoy the pics!

For my Christmas gift this year to all my girl cousins, I had this printing company combine all our family favorite recipes in a cookbook with pictures. Along with a recipe box, cards, and a large white bowl that had matched the bowl from the cover of the recipe book.

To be in Nauvoo

I love this picture. I saw it and my heart skipped a beat. When I was 15, my mother, aunt, me, and my cute baby poodle ginger took a trip to Nauvoo. We stayed there for 5 days and through that, the city became a part of me. The Nauvoo temple is a very close 2nd favorite temple. The history and spirit that surrounds it, is so special. So when I saw this picture the other day at the deseretbook.com....I have to have it.

Bucket List # 11 {Make an Apple Pie From Scratch}
