wind

top: francesca's, jacket: apt. 9, jeans: the loft, boots: gifted

today there was wind. bitter wind. the kind of wind that takes your breath away when you are facing the wind. and it was bitter cold at the same time. not a great mixture.

this weekend the hubs and i will be opening presents and i cannot wait! i like to see the look on his face when he opens presents that he doesn't know he is getting. its the best. so excited for my second amazing christmas as a married couple, its going to be the best. we will continue one of my favorite traditions this weekend, eating chinese takeout for our christmas dinner. its the best.

brights

cardigan: banana republic, top: chloe K (old), pants: the loft (uber sale), heels: fergalicious

these pants were my treasure of my black friday hunt. usually my black friday policy is 'only buy for other people not for yourself.' well....... for these pants i broke that little policy. i mean, bright orange cheetah print? where can you go wrong? plus they were uber on sale?! i swiped these up in a heart beat, because they were the last pair and they were in my size. it was like a glorious light shined down on these when i walked into the store. gahh... i love them. they are the best. i am done drooling over my purchase, but these will always make me so happy when i wear them.

wonderland

this is my backyard today. how gorgeous is this? it rained, and then snowed pretty much all day yesterday and this was our result. one plus living up north here is that the snow comes straight down, and not sideways, which makes it a little bit easier to love this precipitation for 5 months. unfortunately our day involved staying inside instead of enjoying this beautiful weather.

we had a sock draft today. whats that you ask? well, the hubs has a laundry basket full of socks. are there matches? where are the matches? this wonder is one of the most fascinating things to me, along with necklaces getting tangled while traveling. if you wash socks together, where does the mate go? its just mind boggling to me, and it only happens to brett's not mine. hmmmm.... brain teaser eh?
