lovely.

My new favorite is milk glass. Isn't it so pretty? Found these three beauties the other day. Oh, and please ingnore my messy desk.

**thanks to sister for the pretty vintage tray**

four posts in one day? craziness.

Can you even imagine how delicious this would be? Pretty sure they aren't sold in the U.S. but oh how I wish they were! I love nutella.

those cheeks!

I really miss giving kisses to this little chub! She is getting some good little cheeks and thighs! Miss you Jane!!! (and your parents too!)

ice, ice baby!

Just found these pictures of Boss on my computer and started to roll with laughter. Can't quite take the cold of a popsicle! Haha.

help!

Last weekend when I was at home mom and I came across this old picture frame she had in the hall closet. It is now my next project. It is such a cool frame because it doesn't have to be a piece of flat art work. So I am going to remove the vase and sticks off the board and repaint the board. But what else should I do? Anyone have any awesome ideas? I think this could turn into a really fun project but I am stumped on what to do! HELP. Okay, thanks :)

Okay, I have been thinking while writing this post. Maybe I could do something cool like those leaves? Also, another bizarre thought. This may just sound cool in my head. Let me know if it sounds stupid when I put it out there. What if I painted the canvas just one solid color (a cool green perhaps?) and then framed 3-5 milk glass vases in the bottom? Stupid? (Sisters, be totally honest).

slacker...

Yes, I know my last post was October 6th and a LOT has happened since then. Unfortunately I have not uploaded my photos from my camera to my computer, but I will work on it. Just thought I would drop in and at least shout out a few of my 2010 resolutions. That way I am a little more motivated since everyone else will see them as well.

• Workout more often (I'm serious) This semester I am in an aerobic kickboxing class and this morning was our first workout...I can already tell this class is going to be good for me. Especially with a teacher who has the name of Emerald Green.


• Learn/Practice my cooking skills. Although I don't have many cooking skills my job at Kitchen Kneads truly gets me excited! I now have two cook books. "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" and "The New Best Recipe" Does anyone else have "The New Best Recipe"? IT IS AWESOME.
• Sew more. Inspired by sister Kellie's resolution to learn how to sew, I need to keep up on it. I am very excited for the upcoming semester's when I get to take more sewing classes!


• Renovate my closet throughout the year. Be better at getting rid of things and actually wear more of my clothes! I find that I get stuck wearing the same tops and I forget about other ones I have. And if clothes start to get boring, spice them up with new buttons and other add-on's.


• Practice my photography. Santa was extremely nice this year and brought me a Nikon D3000. Now I just need to learn how to use it...


• Write in my journal AT LEAST once a week. I would like this to be something that I get into the habit of doing DAILY, but for now I will train myself to do it once a week.


• DAILY scripture study. I am pretty good at reading a little bit before I go to sleep, but I need to learn to actually STUDY what I am reading.


• Morning prayers. Great at prayers before bed, but sometimes I am not the best at remembering it when I get out of bed. And I don't mean just a prayer on my breakfast (although that is still a good thing :) )


• Better prepare my Sunday school lessons. This year we are studying the Old Testament, which is something I am not very knowledgeable about. So it is time to dig deep and take a lot more time when preparing my lessons.


• And finally, give more compliments. I won't lie, it makes me feel great when someone gives me a compliment, so it would be a good idea if I got into a better habit of giving them out myself.

Also, sister Jill and I were talking today about the insert key on computers. I really, REALLY don't like that key. I was so frustrated earlier this afternoon while trying to send out a big e-mail to my advisor and while I was trying to add a few more comments, I had to practically start all over because I couldn't remember what key causes that problem. Sister and I therefore added the insert key to our list of THINGS WE DON'T UNDERSTAND.

Here is something I do understand, and hope to learn how to do someday...

**aren't these "prittay"**

Anyone have any good resolutions that I am missing out on? Things to add to the "don't understand" list?

That's all for now. I will try to be more frequent with my blogging!
