Going dutch

Ugh. I had a horrible day yesterday and decided it would be a good idea to walk into a cheap salon and get my hair cut. I know look like a cross between these two, minus the bangs. And yes, it does look exactly like a bad wig. I feel like I need to go stick my finger in a dam. I will not be leaving the house, minus going to work and errands, for at least two weeks.

Merry Belated Christmas!

This past weekend I finally got around to mailing Christmas gifts to my sister and her family. I am such a procrastinator! Fortunately, they seemed like everything that I sent. Included was a little alligator that when you add it to water, it triples in size. You can see the picture of Noah below waiting for it to get bigger. That kid is such a cutie. I wish we lived closer to them so that I could spoil them even more.

My sweet little niece is turning one next week. She is absolutely beautiful and looks just like my sister when she was a baby.

Those photos were all taken by my sister, who is a budding photog. Nice work, Brooke!

Domestic Dork

I had a dream last night that i was involved in some sort of contest and I won! My prize was a stack of paper plates. I was really excited about winning these paper goods. I'm a little scared that I am slowly, but surely,becoming domesticated (and kind of enjoying it).

Some examples:

• I own multiple aprons
• Purchasing my first cake stand was really spectacular
• The decision on which vacuum to buy took 1.5 hrs
• I'd rather stay at home with the dog and bf than go out
• I'm really looking forward to having a bridal shower in the future
• Research on juicers is enjoyable
• I wish I would have chosen the KitchenAid as my birthday gift
• I've bookmarked cooking websites
• My garden has already been planned out and we don't even have a backyard yet

Also, I've discovered that I'm a giant nerd. The new movie, Watchmen, looks really interesting but it's hard to get a general storyline from the previews. I've borrowed the book from my friend and on Sunday, stayed up until almost one o'clock reading it. I'm a little ashamed of myself but according to Tyler, I'm a geek's fantasy.
