THERE...I SAID IT...I ADMIT IT.

THE END.

The Keurig Mini Plus

Well, Its finally here! My Christmas present to myself! A little late of course. See, I didn't actually order it until we got back to the apartment, then I had to wait the dreaded 3 to 7 days for it to be delivered. 

I chose the green, but the yellow was really cute too! Here is the little baby, pictured with Jesse's mustache mug. It actually one of the only ones that fits on the drip tray (my only real complaint so far). But thats ok because the drip tray can be easily removed (for this reason exactly) and is not needed to make the beverage! 

I did end up buying the carousel, but its really not needed. Just an easy way to display your K cups. Im sure I could have found a much cuter way, butttt sometimes Im a little lazy. 

SO, all in all. Im very happy to have my little green friend, and I think he will make many mornings much more pleasurable! :)

AN OLD RIVALRY REUNITED

Tonight, Texas A&M will play LSU for the Cotton Bowl. Exciting? Yes! Even more exciting? Tonight they will be making college football history. Tonight marks the 50th time Texas A&M and LSU will have met! But, it gets better! This is the first time they will be playing each other since 1995! Hence the title, An Old Rivalry Reunited. :)

While looking on the internet today, I found this awesome cake! I read up on it a little and found that it was actually someones grooms cake! Pretty cool!

BTHO LSU!!!!!!!!!!

-Thanks and Gig 'Em-

NEW YEARS INSPIRATIONS

JUST SOME PHOTOS TO GET YOU IN THE NEW YEARS MOOD.

NEW YEARS RESOLUTIONS COMING SOON.

BOOKS I BOUGHT TODAY.

OH. MY. GAWD.

I could write like 5 posts about Todd Selby alone. He started  photographing different people in their homes and blogging about each one. But when it became more popular, he decided to choose 32 of his favorite people/homes and make a book. SO GLAD he did that! Most of the homes are really colorful and eclectic, and the people are pretty much what I want to be when I grow up. JUST. SO. COOL.

Ok, I dont really know much about this book...except that everyone loves it. AND there are two more that were written after it...so Im pretty much really behind.

This one jumped out at me right away. It's set in Savannah, Georgia and it is a non-fiction novel about a murder and the trial that went along with it. I think ile read this one first...

The best house on the block.

Ok guys, really sorry for not posting over the holidays so far. I promise that will change soon! Im not really going to try to make any excuses. But I promise I have LOTS of fun blog ideas and I have been reading lots of cool books/doing lots of new things/drawing some really cute stuff. And thats what the holidays are about right?! Well...sorta anyway. So, for now...Ile just show you this...

This little beauty (sorta) is a little house in my hometown that puts up lots and lots of lights every year. It true, that its not a spectacular as some of the huge professionally decorated houses in the city, but there is something magical about it in its own little way. The couple that live there are getting older now so the lights are getting fewer than a couple years ago. But we still love to drive by and watch the little mini helicopter and then tiny train. Everything is pretty much the same every year, which for some reason leaves a comfort...its always the first house we go by and see...

P.S. -unfortunately because a lot of the lights on the house change and blink, it seems that only about half of the lights are actually lit in this picture...but hopefully you sort of get the feeling of it all...:)

Christmas Tree! Oh Christmas Tree!

For as long as I can remember, one of my favorite parts of Christmas was decorating the tree. When I was young we always had real trees, but that stopped after my kitten climbed up to the top and knocked the whole live tree, ornaments, water, and all, to the floor. Ever since then we have had a fake tree. But I didn't really care about that, because it wasn't the tree I loved. It was the ornaments! This year, I had my own little Christmas tree, and while all the ornaments I love from my childhood are still with my mother, Jesse and I had a lot of fun picking out some new ornaments for our tree! But when I finally came home for the holidays, one for the first things I wanted to do was still put up the tree and ornaments. I love all of the ornaments and the stories that go with them so much, I decided to take some pictures to share with all of you!

And of course I had to add this too...Ralphie trying to hide in all of the wrapping from the ornaments...

And this is my little tree that I had at my apartment...
