instafriday #15

it's friday again! here's our week in review:

for her reward, for her good behavior in target, she simply wanted to 
"go look at the trains, but we won't buy anything" :)
works for me!

my husband's football team had a little baby shower for him :)
and he brought the cupcakes home. 
i ate one and threw out the rest. 
i can't afford it now that i'm trying to lose about 30 pounds!
but it was yummy while it lasted.

trying out the no-heat curls that shauna and leslie rock all the time.
shauna did a tutorial here, if you're interested.
the headband i used was bugging me so i took it out early
but you can see it still turned out pretty cute!

how cute are these little cans? i actually gave up soda a while ago, but fell off the wagon.
so i figure if i buy the little cans, at least i don't drink as much?
not a good solution for actually quitting, but it works for now.

last night we had dinner at this little place in cardiff.
we ate outside on the patio, and reese spotted this little boy in the courtyard of the shopping center...
she insisted i let her go talk to him. honestly? she was full on flirting with this kid! it was hilarious.
mostly i appreciated how easily she can make friends with a perfect stranger- a skill i do not have.

i hung a few things in Reese's room the other night. 
it's still in progress and i don't like the left side, but it's finally coming together

i love the rain. a rainy day is always my most favorite day. this is the view out to our backyard. 
i also love that it's free water. we have a lot of grass between our back and front yard.

how cute is this scarf? from target. but i didn't buy it because it was $15. 
$10 would have sold me, but $15? i'm just too cheap.

and lastly, headbands for the baby. 
she didn't really have any, and being a person who sells headbands... that just isn't right!

  3. Woah. This blog may save my life. The hair trick is the coolest thing ever. And Reese's wall looks adorable!!

    p.s. did you order any pics? If so, how'd they print?! Did you get a canvas? I saw an awesome trick on pinterest. You can print a photo on tissue paper and decoupage it on a canvas-- looked super cool! Def want to try that!

on being crunchy

i mentioned it last week , that you could call me "crunchy". not in every single area, but there are a lot of things i do [and don't do] that would classify me as such... although for the record, i hate that term . i'd call it "natural" instead. i usually don't talk about this facet of my life because i feel like it's kind of weird, and also i just like to do what i do and not pressure anyone else to do the same. if someone asks, i'm more than excited to talk about it but i rarely bring it up. i buy organic. if it's available organic, i'll buy it. however, i don't buy organic meat, even though i'd tell you that's one of the most important things. i just can't afford it right now. but, overall, if they sell it organic, i buy it organic. i read labels.  some of the things i avoid are: - high fructose corn syrup [mostly because it is made with GMO corn ] - MSG [confusing, because they can call it anything they want on ...
