vegas

last week we went to vegas.  we bought a deal on living social and got a steal of a deal at the jw marriott.  we even got a 100 dollar resort credit with which i got a hot stone massage, oh.my.gosh.  heaven on earth.  we spent the rest of the time hanging out with our friends nate & heather and getting to remember why we are best friends {after a week with the twins it was just what we needed}.  i love having those moments when i get to remember who i am and see that fun, flirting, handsome man i fell in love because we don't have to worry about our day to day responsibilities.  i love you forrest brett, thanks for the great week in vegas. 

 

elf on the shelf intro

we are living with my parents right now and i figured what better time to invite our elf on the shelf than when living with the 7 year old little girl who is questioning her belief on all things magical.  although i have to admit i'm kind of smitten with minty myself!!  our elf is named peppermint but prefers that we call him minty.  today he brought a special letter from santa claus with instructions and information about our elf and doughnuts for the whole family, including himself what a smart elf!  we are so excited to see what happens every day this holiday season! 
Merry Christmas all!!

merry christmas.

christmas is getting rather close. yay!
i'm busy today baking my life away, finishing up some stockings & gifts, wrapping a few more things & cleaning our disgusting house....gap has kept me busy lately, i've had to neglect a few household chores.
but from us to you, have yourself a merry little christmas.
we love you!!
