This wonderful lady I know posted this the other week. It’s so cute you just can’t help but smile.

It also reminded me of this:

which is quite possibly my favorite of all time.

Movie Trailer Monday?

So freakin’ excited.

getting back into the swing of things

So, after a little battle with AT&T, we finally have internet in our house.
I’ve been catching up on life, school, adjusting to being back from my trip, impatiently awaiting the time when I can go on another trip, and just plain old adventuring.

On Monday this blog will be back in working order, with lots of Peru posts in the near future.

1998 World Cup: Brazil vs France

I’ve never been much of a soccer fan, but with all the hype surrounding the World Cup I’ve become quite interested. The first two matches of the 8 groups are just about done & I’ve picked two teams from each group that I’d like to see advance.

Group A: South Africa & France
Group B: Argentina & Greece
Group C: England & USA
Group D: Germany & Ghana
Group E: Netherlands & Japan
Group F: Italy & New Zealand
Group G: Brazil & Portugal
Group H: Spain & Switzerland

I think it will be fun to keep track & compare what actually happens.

new direction

 

With the addition of Pinterest into my life, I’m thinking I want to redirect this blog. I want to head in a direction more like that of For Me, For You & Abby Try Again & Ill Seen, Ill Said & Oh, Happy Day! (& probably others that I can’t think of right now). I still have some posts lined up from when I went crazy and made 74095803489534 in one night and saved them all. So, those will be posted while I fine-tune the future of this place.

DIY Invitations

What’s a party without some great invitations, right? These invitations for a cocktail party are from Martha Stewart Crafts. I think they’re so clever and could be used for a variety of parties by simply changing/adding different features.
