insta awesome

So, I kinda take forever completing little diy projects... Please tell me I am not the only one! I blame not enough time/ sleep in a day.... and maybe too many great tv shows that occupy too much of my time. (anyone else addicted to Bones or Breaking Bad right now)? Anyway, I finally actually got around to finishing this. I am in love!!

This is now framed and on our wall. I wanted to combine some of our family pictures but have a little bit of a separation as well. Big thanks to my sister in law Katie for rounding up some of Charlie's pictures for me. I would like to point out a specific picture. Check out row one column four. Charlie was fat at one point in his life! Obese baby! Love you babe :)

news so cool you might jump for joy(or at least you should)!

Remember that one time I didn't post anything on my blog for like 2 months. Oops! Can you tell that things have been a little crazy lately?! Every weekend has seemed to be insanely scheduled. The weekends are supposed to be my time to rest up and prepare for a new week. My typical work week is Monday thru Friday from 7am-4pm. Waking up that early can be the death of me sometimes! However, after my 2 hour nap this afternoon, I am feeling quite refreshed!

So what is new, you ask? Well lots! 

ummm can I get a drumroll please... (I really hope that you are mentally doing a drumroll as you read this).... My friend Carli and I are working on opening up our own online clothing store. I am beyond excited!!!! I have always wanted to own a boutique- like since I was 10! An online store just felt like a perfect fit in both of our lives- especially at this time. It was only a short time after meeting and getting to know each other that Carli and I realized we both had the same goals and inspirations. It honestly felt like a lightbulb turned on as soon as we met... and we both knew...we were actually capable of doing this! All it took was that. I am now a believer in the power of two. We are hoping to open up in January... maybe sooner. We are currently in the boring business stages, but I am so excited to show all of you our ideas and clothing we are waiting to purchase. I can't wait to make this step in my life. Everything seems to be falling into place :)

is coming soon!!!!
