Brandon’s Party
I must confess, I had been feeling guilty.
All of my time has been going toward preparing for the National Stationery Show, and NOT toward Brandon’s party. I wanted to fix up the backyard (plants, flowers, furniture, lighting), make Martha-style decorations (giant paper 3D stars everywhere), bake a cake (from scratch), etc. I just […]
Brandon is Turning 30
I’m hoping that it will be nice out next weekend, because we’re having a party for Brandon’s birthday! I’d like to have our friends and family hang out in the backyard. I also want to set up a croquet course. :)
Folding tables and chairs are going to have to work hard to […]
Food Poisoning?
I think I figured out what made me so sick. And that’s SICK, as in can’t stand up, feverish, vomiting, freezing cold while sweating under 3 blankets, mumbling incoherently, sleeping for several days, and scaring my husband I was so sick.
I was just about to fix myself a little snack, and I realized that […]
IKEA Excursion
I finally went out to the DMV to update my address (it’s only been a little over a year – what’s the hurry?). Well it was a lot easier and faster than I thought it would be, I didn’t have to rush back to work on anything, and I was already halfway to IKEA…
First, […]
Our Future Child
Brandon asked me yesterday if I wanted to see what our future child would be like…
“The shiny guy always worries.” Awwwwww.
Perhaps we should hold off on getting a dog and expand our family in other ways. ;)
No Dog Yet
A bulldog really seems like the perfect dog for us (with looks and personality!), but they are very expensive dogs. A puppy would be anywhere from $1500 - $2500, and they tend to have a lot of costly health problems and a short life span.
Brandon and I went looking for a dog to adopt […]
A Bulldog?
Brandon would like a smooshy-faced dog. Ideally, a bulldog.
I’ll have to do a bit more research, but I took a little quiz and the bulldog and I are apparently well suited. That’s good. I also like French bulldogs. They’re kind of smooshy-faced, so I think Brandon would probably like them too.
How […]
Ashley & Her New Purse
My sister and I finally finished her purse!
It turned out really well. It’s so cute! We followed the instructions for the “Charming Handbag” from Amy Karol’s Bend-the-Rules Sewing.
