La Sol Photography 2

Tuesday, April 8, 2014

As promised...a few more of my favorite photos from Lauren at La Sol Photography. If you aren't sick of our mugs yet you will be soon. ;) And yes poor little B had a bruise on her noggin. Annnnnnd I haven't had my hair done since November. Let's pretend I'm trendy and really taking advantage of the ombre look...until yesterday when I realized I was sprouting GRAY hair all over the place! I made a hair appointment faster than you can say "she must be 30 soon." Ugh. Getting old sucks!

Hope you enjoyed our not-so-little photo shoot from La Sol Photography.

La Sol Photography 1

Monday, April 7, 2014

     I had the pleasure of working with Lauren from La Sol Photography last week for a mini photo session with Blair and my sis-in-law Tiffany. We were a little worried because it started raining right as we were leaving to take the pictures (outside of course!) but thankfully it was short lived and the pictures turned out beautifully! Thanks again Lauren! You can follow her at @laurenalbertson on Instagram. She lives in southern California so take advantage of her!

Prepare for picture overload...




kissing her cousin!






blowing kisses...muah!


As you can tell there is no shortage of love (and kisses!) in these pictures! There were SO many good ones that I'll have to just share some more tomorrow. :) Some other shots can also be found at La Sol Photography.

And the Winner is...

Farmer Blair

Last Friday we headed over to our friend's house for dinner and visited with their chickens before we ate them (kidding!). They got this rad chicken coop at Sam's Club and are planning to have lots of fresh eggs at their fingertips. If we had more space (and time) I would so be down for this! Blair was fearless with the chickens and liked feeding them bread when she wasn't eating it herself. ;)






isn't their mini garden cute too!?


 I'm glad our friends have chickens so we can come over and feed them and they can clean up all their poop on a daily basis. ;)

Earlier that day we hit up the park with Blair's friend, Ande. How cute are these two munchkins? They held hands down the slide together. Presh.


Have a happy weekend friends! We will be painting that island and hoping to have it done asap. Winner of the bunny garland contest will be announced here tomorrow!

Workin' at the Car Wash Yeah

Thursday, April 3, 2014

     This last weekend we had such great weather we decided to wash our cars ourselves for a change. Little did I know that B would be quite the washer! She was very helpful with her soapy rag...especially after we washed and dried the whole car and she decided to wash it again. :/ We let her play in the driver seat while we vacuumed the car out and she cried her little eyes out when we had to return inside. Needless to say I see lots of car washes happening in our driveway this summer!







Also don't forget to enter the bunny garland giveaway here! Winners will be chosen Friday and announced Saturday!

Easter Mantle

Wednesday, April 2, 2014

With my bunny garland (win it here!) up in full effect I figured it was time to get my Easter mantle going! I scored some pretty sweet stuff at HomeGoods (where else?!) this year. I'm a fan of neutrals so I steered clear of most of the pastels. I purchased the wreath last year and was contemplating painting the eggs neutral colors then decided it was too much work. Ain't nobody got time for that! ;)








What does your spring mantle look like? If I didn't have to paint my kitchen island still I would probably tackle those blue and yellow eggs...

Hoppy Easter Garland

Tuesday, April 1, 2014

Thank you for the anniversary well wishes! We had such a blast last night kid free thanks to M's parents. AND they got us electric toothbrushes! Things are getting exciting around here... But, seriously, I was super excited to get them because I had been asking for them. Hey, who doesn't want clean teeth?! I'm hoping I don't have to floss anymore now. I'm kidding, Linda. ;)

We went to dinner at PF Changs and ate our hearts out. Then we (finally) saw the movie Divergent. I LOVED it!! Totally similar to The Hunger Games or the book series called "the Uglies." Now we are for sure finishing the book series. In between dinner and the movie we got my wedding ring cleaned...don't you just love doing that? I keep flexing my finger and turning my hand to see my ring sparkle. I couldn't take M into a 7 year upgrade at the jewelry store...I'm holding out for our 10 year anniversary. ;)


Less about us more about Easter! Today I am giving away two bunny garlands to you! Enter below and I will ship them out this weekend...good luck!

I chose colored bunnies for her play area/table



 And white for our family room kitchen. I love neutrals so this was enough whimsy for me :)




The garlands are handmade and have lots of imperfections character so don't say I didn't warn you! Either way they are still cute. Enter below...a hip a hop and you don't stop!
