weekend, don't go!

Just a few notes to get down how great this weekend was, even though we didn't get done anything we had planned on doing.

Saturday brought snow, I figured this out at 6:00am when I got up and went out to run {6 miles cause I'm training for a half}. One of the negatives of living in a basement, is you have no idea what the weather is like until you step out. So after stepping out into snow that came up to my ankles, I called my partner, and we decided to crawl back in bed. This is how our day followed:

Sleep til 9

Malt-o-meal with peach jam

get dressed

tweet at the baby chicks for a while

this Friday night

Our house was the place to be. Trains, coloring, blanket rides all which lead up to a calm down with Bolt and popcorn. Evva loves friends!

loving the popcorn.

We were loved

This year we had a great night in and I loved it! This year I'm kind of all about our own traditions. I'm wanting to make memories. And do things that my kids will remember and know we do it every year. I had so much fun planning what we'd do, and we honestly kept it way low key and simple. It was a day that I could show my love and appreciation for Rob and my little munchkin.

We didn't have to fight Evva {at least not too hard} at a restaurant, and we had fun just being together. I love my little family so so much. I'm looking forward to next year!!!

Grilled steaks w/ peppercorn melange and sweet onion marmalade, wilted baby spinach w/ honey-maple vinaigrette, squash and rolls {which fell and were flat}. So yummy!

Tablecloth-Target, placemats-ikea, salad plates-Rob's mom was DI-ing them {along with bowls-now mine}, napkins-dillards like 5 years ago, I wish I'd gotten more, napkin rings, made in like .5 seconds with random stuff around the house.

I found these cute fortune cookies at gardner village last summer, I was so excited to pull them out, I think they kind of inspired to whole thing. Beautiful flowers from Rob.

I found these awesome straws for Evva, and she so gladly shared. She totally loves them & one of my all time favorite DI finds, I use this little pitcher for dressings and syrup. It makes it happy.

And these amazing things grace our table every now and again. Molten Chocolate Lava cakes with Vanilla bean Ice Cream on top. More please!!!

Hope you were loved too!

"Oast Bees"

That's what she calls it.

Ruffle bums

I haven't been such a fan of the ruffle bums, but I found these tights my aunt handed down to me a few weeks ago. Pretty much this is the last time these tights and this dress will be worn, because Evva ran around church like this all day long last week.

Dear wind,

Although it is absolutely frigid, we love that we are seeing some blue skies. We went to Ikea today and I think Evva about passed out on our way to the car. But thank goodness that yucky inversion is gone!

Over the weekend we got to meet up with this little bundle of energy. We love her so much and wished she lived closer.
