A little bit random...!

First of all, i hope your week is treating you well!
mine is-it's just busy like usual.
most of you know i am a full-time dental hygienist.
what you might not know-is that i'm kinda a photographer as well.
so, editing photo's is taking up my nights.
but alot of times i am selfish too.
i like to spend the FEW nights i get with my husband-with him.
cuddling. kissing. cooking. laughing.
it's all too fun to pass up.
so if i'm not cleaning teeth or laughing with husband-i'm sitting right here at my computer editing lots, and lots of photos.

So-i don't get to blog as much as i'd like..
i've got wedding recaps coming yet, our honeymoon pictures..
and some of my favorite people/bloggers love dares to come.
get ready.
however..these are a few things crossing my mind right now.


how stinking cute is zooey. i stinkin adore her quirky personality.
and her hair and clothing in these pictures is so dreamy. if i could look like anyone...she
might just be on the top of my list.

photo's here.
If i re-did my wedding, {which i'd never do, because i loved, loved, loved, how mine turned out}
i might do grey and yellow. or grey and soft pink. or just grey. might just be my new favorite wedding color...but that changes often.

On my favorite crafty/decorating blog i saw this chair. or chairs.
this would be perfect for jace and i. me for sure.
because no matter where we are sitting, i can't get my legs on him, or over him fast enough.
and with regular chairs, it's prevents me from sliding over and doing so..
so with these chairs, i found a solution,
i can cuddle up as much as i can, or as much as he allows.
sometimes i think i hover. but usually he just lets me.
that's another reason i love my husband.
and i think he's wonderful.

that was a really random post. oh well.
hoping your week is wonderful~

Love {Jenny}

The next lady to step up to the {Love Dare} was Jenny.
I have fallen completely in love with her blog, and all the fun craft ideas.
It is because of her and her cute decorating ideas that I cannot wait to get a house and add our own touch. She has such great taste.
Not only does she inspire me with her creativity, this little email i received from her gave me great insight that it really is the little things that make life and love great..
Here is Jenny {isn't she a doll?}

"My husband, Wade, and I have been married since July 5, 2008, but we've been together for 7 years. He works two jobs, and I work one very busy one, so it's hard for us to find time to spend together by ourselves! One thing that we do that keeps our love fun is to wrestle!
Now, you may think that sounds crazy, but I'm telling you...I can come home and be in an ill mood, and Wade will grab me and before you know it we're brawling...then I'll get mad, and then I'll start laughing, and then we'll both be laughing and I won't even remember what I was mad about!
We also like to Wii bowl. We're both very competitive, so we'll make a bet on different things. Sometimes I end up packing his lunch for work the next day, and sometimes he'll end up bathing Dex (our Westie), but we love it! We like to include a nice cookie baking session with this activity. :)

Speaking of cooking, we have designated Thursday nights as our "new recipe nights." We alternate picking new recipes, and then cook them together! Or, if it's a FAIL, we just head out to eat instead!
One last thing we do is go grab some ice cream and go riding around with the windows down and the sunroof open. I'll show him where I lived when I was younger and tell him stories, and vice versa. We always wind up finding out something new about each other!"

Jenny and her husband Wade.

So, there it is. It is the little things like wrestling, and laughter that make life fun.
Never stop laughing with each other.
That's so important. And so is to never stop learning about each other.
I love when something triggers Jace to share a story with me that he hadn't before.
It makes me fall in love with every part of him all over.
Thank you Jenny!
Those are wonderful ways to keep love fun
-the way it should be.

over it.

here is just a short story for you.
it's pretty simple now that i think about it.
Basically, we aren't going to get along with everyone in this world.
So, it's ok if you don't like me.

.....la, la, la...ha ha ha.
... with that-happy saturday.
:)

i've got a little can of paint..

chalkboard paint to be exact.
...But i don't think it will be enough.
i've got all sorts of fun ideas.
now i just have to wait for a house.
hopefully it won't expire.
check out these fun ideas.
thank you google for letting me look at these fun pictures for hours..
I love the fridge idea..can't afford a new one? jazz up the old one!
or...spruce up a wall. i love the change of color!

how sweet is this nursery? especially with that extra special chest in the lower left.




my macbook pro..no thanks. but it looks when they do it to someone else's!


such neat decoration ideas.






maybe one of my favorites. a chalk globe.




or maybe it's this one. a little piece of unique art for the wall.
and you can change it up everyday if you'd like.
so--i think i will need to buy some more paint.
because i am in love with all of these.

BABIES!

...this past weekend while out shopping with my mom it hit me.
With all the cute clothes, cribs, and everything else adorable....
I absolutely cannot wait for babies.
However, I will.
Because as much as I love them, I love time alone with my husband too.
And we are selfish right now.
We love traveling, and late nights with loud movies.
But someday, we will be ready, and J will make a great daddy.
and when we are ready, I can only hope making them is this fun...:)



Thank you Brooke~ ---and Cassidy Curtis for making baby making look like so much fun!!!

things learned.




over the past 11 days away i've learned that there are many things in life that make me happy.
including..

flying in airplanes with my husband.

fashion in la. nobody cares what's in right now. they wear what they want, and everyone seems to rock their individual outfit.

warm weather. like 90 degree weather. in the fall. i miss it already.

cruise ship food. i may have eaten waaaayy too much, but jace still loves me.

the way jace places his warm cheeks against mine in the dark to help me fall asleep.
the sound of him breathing that close to me is bliss.

in-n-out burger. we just may have eaten their two nights in a row. guilty.

celebrities. reading about them, and hearing about them is a pleasure of mine. sad-maybe. but normal. especially those two little taylor's. so cute together. so perfect.

seeing the staples center packed with lakers fans.

watching my husband takes his first step into the ocean.

riding the metro in downtown la. so much diversity.

hearing songs i love blaring from trendy shops along the boardwalk.

the mexican rain forest.

hearing my families voices after 7 days without them.

getting to kiss my husband just because it's 10:56

wearing new dresses.

tights.

Pinkberry Yogurt. With pomegranate seeds on top.

WB studios behind the scenes tour.

Having lots of mail after returning home.

Texts and emails from friends I've missed.

Sleeping in our own bed.

Honeymoons, and my husband.

AND...seeing this hottie below at the Lakers game. So exciting.

hoping you've found many things this week that made
YOU
happy.
