Happy New Year!!!

1:49 PM
Happy New Year's!!! Some fun new year's links.: Compai's 11 Resolutions for 2011. IloveMemphis's exclusively Memphis-themed Resolutions. I love this.  A list of resolutions involving the things you LOVE about yourself instead of the things you want to change.  Keep practicing the good habits and remember what you love about yourself! I wish I had found this before now so that I could use...

Merry belated Christmas!

9:57 PM
What do you know?  It's been kind of a white Christmas! The Doodle doing snow patrol. I hope everyone had a most excellent Holiday season!  Joey and I had an absolutely wonderful Christmas spending time with family and enjoying our first official holiday traditions as a married couple.  I had the house looking beautiful for a second to capture the moment and spend...

I get it from my Mama...

9:03 AM
Although I think Juvenile and I are speaking of two different aspects of what mothers give to their daughters, I couldn't get this song off repeat in my head, so I decided to post it as a segue into today's post for my mother. So, on a more serious note, I do in fact credit my mother for a lot of my characteristics....

Home for the Holidays!

12:25 PM
Happy Weekend, everyone!  The Holidays are upon us and family and friends are slowly trickling into town :)  Lindsey and Gus are home until after Christmas, which guarantees an entire week of family fun (I'll be sure to have my camera on me), and  I know some of my friends are coming in town as well, and I can't wait to see them...

To the woman whose soft, warm hands I will miss so much, but with closed eyes, I will always feel - Thank you for hoarding countless empty bottles of what used to be random assortments of various products... who knew that empty tide, dial, aspirin, hell, I can't even remember which other bottles, could equal hours, excuse me, years, of entertainment to us....

Scaling the wall...

1:11 PM
I apologize about the absence, but I'm going to be taking about a week long break or so.  I'm just about over this humongous hill and it's going to be a hell of a haul getting over this last bit.  A lot's going on and I need to work my butt off to make sure everything that needs to be in order is. ...

Happy Thanksgiving!

8:43 PM
I know this post comes a day late, but I wanted to wish everyone a very happy Thanksgiving!  I hope that everyone got to enjoy some time with their loved ones and enjoy a potluck of delicious thanksgiving foods!!!  Also, I hope everyone got at least one food-induced coma.  As gross as it is to think about passing out from all of the...

In the corner...

2:35 PM
I'm upset with myself today.  I've been working hard on my literature review for my thesis, professional portfolio, and carrying out research in the classroom.  I've been video-taping a first, third, and fifth grade class playing different art games, as well as creating a classroom tour.  All of this I'm going to use as research, but also include it into my professional portfolio...

Happy Weekend, everyone!  I hope that you have at least one day planned for relaxation.  Joey and I are both suffering from some kind of funky head cold thing, and I'm really hoping that it doesn't turn into anything more than that.  It's not the most convenient time to be significantly sick, but then again, when is?  Mumbai Hot Chocolate?... Yes!  Found here....

Happy Wednesday!

7:11 AM
I think designer brands are pretty ridiculous, however, that doesn't mean that they're not fun to look at... like exotic bird watching or something.  Louis Vuitton is no exception to this fanciful frivolity, selling tote and handbags for around $3,000 (give or take a few).  I mean, why would you spend the cost of a used car on a purse that's going to...

Jalapeno Jelly!

9:52 AM
Check it out!  My sister Lindsey, who has always had an aesthetically able eye, has gotten little Gus man's nursery in a color challenge on Ohdeedoh!!!  She has done a fabulous job decorating his room and not only with color choices and accent pieces, but in the arrangement of the room as well.  It's a really small room, so it could easily become...

Half-way to the weekend!

2:52 PM
I'm loving this series, "Style.Play.Work.Shop" from Compai Blog.  The ladies over there throw out about 5 random items (this week's was ribbon, squash, envelope, jewelry, and bottle) and they and other bloggers or readers who would like to participate arrange these items in a picturesque way and photograph them.  Then, they display some of the best shots on their blog the following week....

Weekend Love

7:29 PM
This week flew by!  It seems like everyday there was something going on so that by the time I made it home it was time to go to bed and do it again.  That does not mean, however, that I didn't enjoy the week.  The beginning of this week was pretty rough with a few classes that decided to act like CERTIFIED LUNATICS...

Quick Catch-Up

10:20 AM
I got my camera back yesterday, and with it, the pictures from last weekend.  I want to share them with you.  Enjoy! First off, here are the three dogs from the lost pets fiasco: All found their homes the next day :) Then here is a tour of our place when it's actually clean (the workroom is not pictured because it's a giant...
