Me thinks I have a problemo

Dear husband,


I've developed a little bit of a problem.
This problem is consuming my life and prevents me from getting anything accomplished!
Do you know what it is?




House hunting.
That's what it is.
When I'm in class- I'm thinking about our house.
When I'm at work- I'm thinking about our house.
I plan how I want to decorate and fix-up our house.
I dream.
I read.
Thats all I talk about!!
But can you blame me?!?
I'm just super duper excited!
But I'm sorry you have to hear my ramblings and ideas and concerns.
Your just going to have to suffer.



 Love wife

It's official!

Dear snow hubby,

Now that Thanksgiving has come and went- we can now listen to Christmas music 24/7 without being stoned or booed at!
Yay! 

I have 2 favorite Christmas songs that I plan on playing over and over.

Jingle Bell Rock by the fabulous Bobby Helms 
(In my opinion the best version ever!)
and Baby it's Cold Outside by Margaret Whiting and Johnny Mercer! Have you ever seen the original debut version of this song? It's different but I still love it!
The song debuted in the film Neptune's Daughter. I watched the movie last summer when TCM had an Ester Williams marathon and of course I couldn't resist watching.

I love this time of the year!

Love your festive wife

s-N-o-W

Dear Husband,

Well, I think we officially have a foot or two of snow on the ground!
I think we spent the majority of our days this past week outside in the snow {especially you and Artie}

I'm starting to warm up to this cold white stuff. It makes everything so peaceful and pure.
I especially love our wintery walks with Artie.
I love how he gallops through the deep snow and I love how he tries to catch the snowballs.
Winter has only been with us for a short time, so who knows if I'm still going to adore it by April.

Although, with snow brings cold weather {duh!}
And well, since the heaters built in our apartment will cost our first born child to run, we are without heat.
Which means layers of comfy sweaters, Cuddling in bed till you leave for work and lazy nights wrapped up in blankets!

Winter is so much better married!

Love your layered wife






P.s This weekend we must invest in a space heater

P.p.s I can't wait to camp in our Igloo!

P.p.p.s When we finish our igloo, we must roast marshmallows with our neighbors!

....

Dear husband,

I have a current obsession that I can't wait to get started on.
Re-vamping furniture.
Whats this you ask?

Well! It's taking something as ugly as this and turning it into something super cute!!




Today I fell in love with yet another decorating blog.
(Your probably rolling your eyes right now)
Anyway,
It's a wonderful blog!
And she does heaps of re-vamping!
It's so inspiring!
Lovest thou wifey
