{Scentsy....YUM}

So have any of you ordered the Scentsy products? I have a friend who is having a Scentsy party this weekend and I am pretty excited for it. I got a chance to look though their catalog yesterday and some of the scents sound amazing! Let me know what your favorites are if you have tried it before....

{How Cute Is This?}

How stinkin cute is this....I was browsing Becky Higgins' blog and found this fantastic little Valentine Decor item that she made. I'm pretty sure that I need to make one of these little dittys for our hallway upstairs now!


Just thought I'd share!

{2 Down, 29 To Go.....}

Actually I have more then 2 layouts done but the rest are not digi and I am being lazy about taking pics of them..... I am kinda starting to like this digital thing, I can throw a page together in like 10 minutes w/ no clean up!

It's About Time.....

Here is the first of my 31 in 31 layouts. The page is of my good friend Ashley's brand new baby girl who is so adorable! FYI...this is one of my first digital pages!

{Rockin' My Socks.....}

Here is my little list of what is currently making me smile.........


1. My car is paid off next month and I think I might want to get a new one some time this summer. Currently I am loving the Ford Edge. Really loving the orange Ford Edge.

2. Ingrid Michaelson......I am in love with this girl's music. I really like her song called "Let Go". She is playing on my ipod all the time.

3. This little baby. She is my good friend, Ashley's and she is adorable. I seriously want to eat her up! This are some pictures I took when she was only a few days old

4. Geoff and I need a new bedroom set so I've been browsing around, you know trying to make a somewhat informed choice (: This is my favorite so far. It's from Pottery Barn

5. This adorable little gifts made by Jennifer McGuire on Two Peas
She made them with Treasure Hershey bars and Cosmo Cricket's new line. How cute. I have decided to make these for everyone I know (well maybe not EVERYONE)


I know, I know I need to start posting my 31 in 31! I promise it's on it's way!

If You Haven't Already......

You have to watch the movie Hairspray! I was a little unsure as to whether I would enjoy it since I'm not that into musicals, but is was awesome! Love, Love, Loved all the fun scenes and the entire message the movie was trying to convey. A must buy for our house!

Why I <3 Target

I just love Target.

Fred Meyers......no way!
ShopKo......ewww
Walmart......plain old disgusting

Target= L.O.V.E.

For Example.......

Are this Target rain boots not the best? How could anyone not want a pair of cherry rain boots? They make me happy just looking at them!
