if it doesn't make you better, let it go.

When your world gets turned upside down, you pick yourself back up and remind yourself, 'you got this'.

I can't tell you how many times in the last eight weeks I have had to remind myself of this, but I do, and I power through.

I may not have a house anymore, but who needs a house, when you can have a beautiful 3rd floor apartment.

I've never pinned so may quotes  in my life that all seemed 100% relevant, but thank you Pinterest for fixing that for me. With a combination of Pinterest and the very Best Friends a girl can ask for, ill be alright..
In the meantime, I'm going to start each day with a smile, and end it with a glass of champagne!

So, like I said, I now reside in an apartment, and I think I've nailed it on being girly.

new home {in ralston}


We moved in to our house in Ralston last July. After several months of searching for the perfect home, quite a few heartbreaks and 'almost homes' along the way, we finally found it; our house.

After several fails on finding the 'right' home, my sister and I decided to just look around her neighborhood for fun, as luck would have it, we found a house a couple streets over from her home. I quickly followed up with Doug's mom about looking at the house, and before we knew it, we had an appointment to check it out. Doug was busy with work all the days we viewed it, but trusted our opinion, and put an offer down before even seeing his future home.

Our house was originally bank owned, and had quite a few problems to fix. (to be continued...)


 









 
   



DIY: Starbucks costume

For the last couple years my sister and I have gone all out for Kat's Halloween costume. This year she wanted to be a bumble bee, but of course, on the way to Hobby Lobby, Daina and I decided she would be an adorable Starbucks Iced Mocha.

And so it begins:
