Surprise

yep that’s right! I love surprises... lo and behold yesterday I received some “late Christmas” gifts in the mail via my handsome husband! He knows the way to my heart.

they are from ninexmuse.etsy.com and I am in love with them. I don’t know about most of you but I’m not much of a Tiffany & Co. kind of girl, never really have been. I much prefer etsy, anyday :) Jake, I’m so glad that I found you, and that you get me. my sweet, sweet man. <3

I also visited some friends this weekend who just had their second child (hurray Miller!) and their daughter is pretty much my guinea pig when it comes to children’s photos. I love taking pictures of her because she’s adorable and completely photogenic and of course her parents are completely rad. no exaggeration. :)

OH. and I totally took the plunge and cut my bangs across. I was just talking to jake about how emotionally attached I am to my hair, it's completely ridiculous really. but Ashley (my brother in law's gf) has a bit of experience in hair cutting so she came over and we did it. chop chop chop snip snip snip, no more side swept bangs. I love Zooey Deschanel's hair (LOVE HER), so I was hoping that they would look somewhat like hers:

yay or nay?

I’m liking them so far!

ok, so maybe I’ll try curling it, the similarities might be more substantial that way ;)



forgive me for such a long post.
and don't forget about my buttons!
Copy and paste, as easy as that.
hehe :)

So grab one and pass it on!

farewell, 2009…hello, 2010!

not that it’s that big of a deal. I never really did think it was. But here’s a tribute to 2009, you were a good year, with lots of good experiences…

To limit some of the highlights of this year to 12 was so difficult, we were so blessed this year and I can’t wait to see the changes that are coming! Jacob and I are working on personal goals lists, and bucket lists for 2010 as well and goals that we want to achieve together, and so far the future is looking bright. :)
