Our Nest...

Alrighty everyone, my New FaVORITE MagazinE EVeR...the Nest

Just wanted to let you know how great it is. It has great, fun gift ideas, budget advice, home decor ideas, DIY projects..its just grand! Snag one next time you see one.

Our nest has been a bit boring this time of year, not sure if its the weather or what...but I LOVE IT! I feel like I can totally play catch-up with everything ive put on the back burner. Photography is slow, because of the weather and thats really sad. I actually really miss being photography busy, its fun trying new stuff and meeting all new people. It has also been really great to work from home and actually use my degree..Imagine that ha? lol. Im so thankful for some loyal fans and community that keep me busy. Its been such a great year!

Thanksgiving was a highlight of this week. We got to have two of them!! Like we needed two? but both were great. We had lunch at my moms and it was great. Its always fun laughing and spending quality time with Lex and Quincys Family and of course Grandma Deb. After lunch #1 we went to Thanksgiving #2 and Kirk and Brendas. They always outdo themselves and go all out. I really love that they have sweet potatoes! YUMMO! Its always fun to have two families that are both great. Im pretty lucky! Pictures will be on FB sometime.

So now on to the recent news update. James took off the rest of the week after the Holiday. So we started yesterday with a movie marathon..DON'T JUDGE! All our chores are done! ha ha. WE have now watched 7 movies in the last 2 days! Its been fun to snuggle up under a blanket, drink hot cocoa, and just veg! I promise tomorrow I'm gonna do some mad work (my butts starting to hurt, that couch).

Hope you all had a great Thanksgiving and are all staying warm this time of year! I'm very thankful for all of you and all my blessings. Have a great rest of the weekend.

Holy blogging!

I cant stop stalking blogs! Why is stalking them so much easier then writing them?? hmm. So since my last post, I got to go to the DJ Scrappin Retreat that my mom and her (everyones friend) Jane put on. Its a great crafty weekend where you can scrapbook, card make, sew, really just do any craft. Its an amazing time and every year I come home so motivated and excited to craft again! TONS of great ideas are shared as well! Its just really great, you all should come?

After coming home and putting my craft stuff away, I decided to reorganize my office again! Its crazy how just having a new layout of a space makes you want to be in it more. I think i was in there all day! It was great. Maybe tomorrow, Ill get some crafting done. I cant wait to get some Christmas crafts finished....ok started! haha. Here are a few things I stalked today. I LOVE BLOGGING IDEAS! Its grand! Hope you all are having a great week. Ill keep you posted on other great ideas i snag!

On a walk this week, so pretty ha! I LOVE FALL!

Guys im seriously a slacker..this blogging is always on the back burner. Its been a busy week, again! Went shopping with my mom last weekend, got tons of cute crafts to work on and the pictures will be up someday. Got a cute clock, some picture frames, that are now hung up and some really cute boots that have been keeping me so warm and I LOVE THEM! Its always great to get away for a weekend with mom and get some shopping in! That night was also Halloween so of course the girls came over for some candy, and Kesiah is still stopping by to finish off the rest (its been a big help, so we dont eat it all). Kesiah was only wearing half of her costume at this time, and Keeley was a Lady Bug! They are so cute! Glad Lex has them...haha. Nothing else was really knew besides work, pictures, tons of pictures and all this Fall weather that I LOVE SO MUCH! Its a great time of the year, mostly because James is inside more and thats where I like him! Hope everyone has a great week!
