Little update...

Isn't there a rule about buying a woman appliances as a Valentines day gift?

Hmmm...

Too bad! Because my husband bought me the most fabulous washer and dryer for Valentines day! It stinks that I won't get to use it for almost 3 more weeks because said washer and dryer are in CA and I am not. He also got me a new refridgerator...what is up with houses not having a fridge when you rent them? Seriously. We are paying enough rent for our new house that it should cook dinner for me and it doesn't even have a fridge! Ridiculous!

In other news, only 5 days until I load all of the stuff we have with us here in a moving truck and send it on its way to meet Chris. THEN only 12 days until Madelyn, Mom and I start our trek across the country. It's going to be bittersweet, I am going to miss family more than I can even imagine at this point, but we will be with Chris again and I can't wait to be settled and a family again. I just kind of hate that it's on the OTHER side of the country from family, but we LOVE CA and I can't wait to share all of the things we loved before with Madelyn and our families as they come to visit. We already have one visit home planned and everyone is making their summer vacation plans. So it won't be too bad or too long before we see everyone.

Valentines day was pretty uneventful around here except for going to Home Depot with Chris on the phone and discussing appliances. It was a little "tele-date". Saturday morning I tried to pretend I was still asleep and Madelyn grabbed my face and pulled it out of the pillow just so she could kiss me! It was so sweet.

Never a bad thing to get appliances for V-Day. Denise and I got Kitchenaid mixers a few years back for V-Day and we loved it!!

I am probably coming to your house to do laundry since I'm sure your washer and dryer are totally fancy. I want a new washer and dryer! But I would settle for a house right now!

Where to start?

This is a welcome home sign that somebody put up on base. I'm sure the Marine recognizes himself in the picture as do all the Marines that know him. There is just so much wrong that I don't know where to start. Is this sign from a jealous girlfriend and wifey's on the bed of a pick-up truck on her way to Mexico to be sold into slavery? Is this sign from his brother who took "care" of wifey while he was deployed? Is this just a sign from the wifey who likes to advertise that she is lazy and fat and probably has cracker crumbs and bugs in the bed because this sign has been up for several weeks. I won't even get started on "the ice", like there's only one ice? I bet it melted really quick. Maybe it's on the ice in Alaska? Or on the ice on the boat that she bought with deployment money and is sailing around on with the brother? OK, it's making my brain hurt because it doesn't rhyme or flow. It's just a bunch of statements on ...

All Dressed Up!

It's All Dressed Up Wednesday with No Model Lady It's just a fun day for us to get dressed up and share it with the internets.  Today I did a little casual outfit that I've been thinking about for a while.  It's not super creative, but I LOVE this shirt and scarf combo.  Feeling pensive in the backyard. Feeling like a picture with heels sinking in the grass! This outfit was really all about the shoes.  Because it's always all about the shoes. This is how silly I felt posing in my backyard with a mirror propped against our glider bench. Shirt and scarf combo: Kohls Jeans: Levis skinny Shoes: Macy's clearance Earrings: Charlotte Russe Bracelet: a gift from my lovely Denise Did you play?  Wanna Play?  Head over to No Model Lady and link up!
