At least mostly. I didn’t especially want to move (although our new place is spacious and nice). The main reason I didn’t want to move is I HATE moving. I despise it! It’s such a process. Changing addresses, switching services, packing, unpacking and re-painting our old apartment. Friday we made a dozen car load journeys from the … More We Moved
I have a new fashion crush: Taylor Swift. It’s not really new new, it is at this point well established. For the past couple years she has consistently impressed me with her red carpet selections, so much so that she is joining the ranks of Kate Middleton and Blair Waldorf as fashion icon – at … More Fashion File: Taylor Swift
I’m 13 hours and 22 minutes into my first cleanse attempt. Whole Living came in the mail yesterday and it’s the cover story.

Week 1: Fruits, vegetables, nuts, seeds, oils/seasonings and lentilsWeek 2: Add Fish (not shellfish), legumes, beans, … More Whole Living Cleanse
I discovered the most ingenious but depressing thing recently. I started drinking tea after I discovered Teavana. During my mini shopping spree last fall I bought a glass tea maker for $30. It’s alright. You fill the container with water, put leaves in the steeper that you place on top, place the lid on and wait a few minutes … More French Press Hack
It’s a rainy day in the D today. We really felt it on the drive in as all cars were driving super slowly and the highway was backed up. For that reason we were convinced the auto show started today. Nope. It starts on the 14th. I’ve been wearing snow boots to work … More Rainy Day
We move in basically a week! I can hardly believe it. Are we prepared in any way, shape or form? No. Since Danny wanted to move I put him in charge of things. And since we’re both low key, piling things in our cars and moving without boxes doesn’t seem ridiculous to us. We’ll see … More Neighbors
I get this question a couple times a week and I really don’t have an answer. It was a particularly popular conversation starter over the holiday. How does it feel to spend your first Christmas together as man and wife? Honestly, it felt the same as it did last year and the year before that … More How Does It Feel To Be Married?
Danny said he wanted to play BSG everyday during Christmas break and he darn near got his wish. We played nearly everyday!!! Then we ended up playing this xBox game Nick introduced us to call Peggle. I’ve basically spent the past week playing games. We invited Brett, Lindsey and their girls over to Mom’s … More Happy New Year!
Saturday night we finally saw the Hakala’s again. Unfortunately, babies are suppose to sleep at night so I didn’t get any cuddle time with Gwen. Bummer. I did get to sneak a peak at her and she’s a cutie. So tiny. Since I didn’t have a baby to occupy myself I made Lindsey and … More Weekend Round Up
I had a Dickens-esque Christmas holiday. Part I: Christmas Present and Future. It’s looking good. There are tons of cuties for me to play with. Delicious food. Lots of love and fun. Me with my soon to be God-daughter Kensley and my little girl Erin who I’d steal in a heartbeat. Erin is the most … More Tis the Season
