valentines sounds of sunday
my favorite musical ever
is notre dame de paris
my best friends hubby showed me a video of the play
and i thought it was sooooo good.
im such a nerd.
so in this song belle
they are all in love with esmeralda
and they are just singing their little hearts out
about it.
{here is the theatrical version}

garou is absolutely adorable
here here here are some super ultra cheesy vids
but you can close your eyes
snuggle up to that special someone
and listen to his amazing voice
or if you are in the boat im in
{which is an awesome boat}
watch it by yourself and be perfectly content :)

3 amigos

one of my most favorite movies reminds me
of my sisters.

staying classy with the classifieds

here is my latest ksl find.
ive been looking for a big unique mirror
for a long time.
and all the ones id find were out of
my price range.
i saw this gem for $40!!
when i went to pick it up
it was a LOT bigger than i thought.
but bigger is better.
i managed to bring it in the house by myself
{inch by inch}
but recruited help to hang it.
thanks phil!

about always being tired.
ive become that person
thats ALWAYS tired
and yes i complain about it.
sometimes.

sounds of sunday

i love this song and the video
oh so much.
i saw it on another blog
a couple months ago
and thought it was super awesome.

good times with gary the snail

last summer christian adopted a snail

that he found at simeons house.

gary was his name.

gary lived a whopping 2 weeks

i really didnt think he'd last a day.

looking at these pictures

make me so ready for spring/summer.

i can barely stand it.

i really struggle in the winter time

and now that i work all day

its been super hard.

i am definitely a sunshine girl.

this has saved my butt.

i swear it works!

i highly recommend it for anyone

feeling the winter blues

it will make you feel like this...

what makes you happy in the winter time?

some days are worse than others

every morning darby reminds

me of gene wilder.

she has the most amazing bedhead.

etsy pom pom *love*

darbys cluster funk pom poms

come from orangekisses
and the big pink one was from
good old martha stewart.

then i sewed a paper garland
and draped it over.

turned out...

couldnt help myself got
a couple more for valentines deco.
i guess i cant get enough of pom poms
paper or yarn.

get'er done

today was one of those days where
you get so much crap done.
i love those days.
and i love borrowing my friends husbands
to help me put the finishing touches
on my room.

my new hanging light looks
soooooooo bitchin!

bathroom ideas

my room is almost done,
{pictures to come}
we will be starting the kitchen soon,
so naturally my mind wanders
straight to the bathroom.
and i think about how bland and ugly
it is in there.
i cant wait for a little extra cash
{who knows when that'll be}
to spruce things up a notch or two
or like ten.
here are a couple
fun ideas that are making my list...

gray blue paint *love*
the love stinks soap has my name written all over it!
im crazy over this shelf
and this little number, smitten.

toothbrush and what not holder
i need to get my hands on these amy butler towels!!
good words to look at while blowdrying your hair
ebay mirror

on peoples blogs at christmas time.

i first saw it here

and here is a tutorial.

it was super fun and easy to make.

i think im going to want one for every holiday!

family home evening you are a pain in my butt {sometimes}

i try my darndest to do family home evening regularly.

my kids are crazy for bowling

and seriously they want to go every monday.

sometimes pulling of FHE by myself can

be enough to put me in the crazy house.

last night we had 2 huge meltdowns

a bowling alley that was closing early in 10 minutes,

which caused 2 more huge meltdowns.

then finally we made it.

to a bowling alley.

the kids had a great time as usual.

and it was worth the pains in my butt to get us there.
