It's SOO Easy!

Gone are the days of driving neighborhoods looking for that magic yellow sign (sometimes hot pink) pointing the way to the next golden garage sale. Why? Google finds them for you with the new Google Yard Sale Treasure Map!

You just type in your address, how far you feel like driving, and it creates a route for you! You can just click a button to see info about each garage sale, or even add stops to your route. And the best part, you can print it out and Voila!!!! Early Saturday morning planned and ready for action!

I don't know about you but I'm going to be on the lookout for a few great finds for the hopefully soon to be new home!

Just call me Suzie Homemaker!

I am going to toot my own horn here for a minute. You can stop reading if that offends you. If not, celebrate with me!
Homemade Guacamole?
YES she did! and was it awesome? Yes it was! The Mr. ate the WHOLE thing (ok i had some too). It was that good! (and props to Remy for the yummmmmmmmy receipe)
Homemade Pizza?
YES she did! me and the hubster had a 30 sec. date while making a yummy pizza. verdict? better than a pizza joint!
Homemade 2-tier Delicioso Birthday Cake?
Yes she did! with sprinkles on ALL sides! Can we say funfetti?
Homemade Headband?
YES she did! I kept seeing all the amazing peacock headbands, but price tag $50 was a bit out of my budget. so what did i do? crafted it in 15 mins for $3. and it made my outfit for the wedding.

All in a days work my friends... all in a days work.

Happy 25th My Love!

My sweet love had a big milestone recently, and I was thrilled to get to c-e-l-e-b-r-a-t-e!!!! (he was too! :)

I love that I got to spend another fantastic year of your life with you honey. I cant wait to see what this year brings!

Who wants to buy me...

these perfect silk peonies from Fiori Belli. I don't' even care which color they are. These are the most amazing silks I have seen. Look at how detailed they are, down to the last inch (on the zoom feature on the link)! Do you have any idea how hard it is to buy real peonies? Even special florists don't get them too often. Dang having a favorite flower that is so elusive!

A lazy day off with the Hubby

I love days off. Especially when I get to spend them with Vince all day.
So far we slept in to 9:30, (but really, when did this become sleeping in?)
have spent a delightful morning in our PJ's, catching up on all the shows we have missed over the past few days and we are getting to be together!
Plans for later?
Dates together for yummy bubble tea, a walk in the park if it is not too cold, and watching my man play some flag football tonight.
I'm in happy bliss!

still in mourning...

I have been putting off posting for a bit. Its just been too sad since this had become a bunny blog.
But the bunnies all died. It was so sad. We had a freak snow-storm and momma bunny never came back. We were actually out of town that weekend for a funeral, and when we came back the bunnies were really doing bad. I tried to save them, but it didn't work, and on Monday all my sweet bunnies were gone. A moment of silence please.

Bunny Business

Goodness little bunnies grow fast!

These are from today!

The bunnies are just so precious! They take up the palm of my hand now, instead of just the length of my finger. (And they barely fit in the hole the momma dug for them.) The momma is keeping these little babies growing! They even are almost hopping around! I predict in the next few days that they will open their eyes.

In related news, Jonas has been going crazy trying to play with the bunnies. However, I am afraid that he would accidentally kill them if he played with them... or get too close even. That pretty much equals we either have a constant whining at our backdoor, or we are watching his every move outside with him when we let him out. It's been rough even though I love the little bunnies. Can my family go back to 3 now? 7 is a lot!

T-Minus 1 Week!

CAN'T wait! (And yes, it will be me and 15,000 13 year olds watching together)

Day 3 with the Bunnies

They are growing so sweetly!

They still have closed little eyes, but they are getting much bigger, and are getting fur now. They don't really look like little mice anymore! One even made a few noises and almost hopped today :) Bunnies are so fun.

Oh Vera!

This just made my day!

I have been drooling over the 2009 Vera Bradley Agenda for months. Guys it is darling. Each month has a different Vera Design for the pages! I'm in love! The other day I was at the Vera store in Allen, (FABULOUS by the way!) and I came THIS CLOSE to buying it.

I resisted, I can't rationalize $30 for a planner I didn't really need.

Anyhow, I am finishing my other shopping which brought me to Ross. I think half the things I own are from there. I was finishing up and swung by to check out the thank-you note section since we use a lot of those these days and what did I see???

THIS!!!!!! For $3.99... $3.99!!!!!!!!!!!

It's even in Yellow Bird!

And the months!

Happiest Girl Ever. Right here! Yup it's me.
