Missed You Blizzard

I was waiting all night for the blizzard. I woke up this morning and looked outside to see... nothing really. I mean, there was a smattering of snow on the ground, but that's about it.

I wanted to see a tree covered like THIS,

Oh well, I'm sure it'll be soon enough. It just sounded delightful to be trapped in the house for one night, sipping cocoa, watching movies. Also, getting work off would have been nice too.

Hello

Back in the swing of things. I had an AMAZING weekend with my hubby. He planned out so many wonderful things to do! We even stayed at a hotel with a water slide! He definitely went above and beyond and made me feel so special. I am so blessed to have him in my life as my husband!

I woke up today NOT wanting to get out of bed, which turned into rushing out the door. Wednesday is always a hard day for me to get going. Half way through the week, and next week is a short week!

On another note, I REALLY need to start Christmas shopping. Brainstorming is one of the hardest parts for me. I always want to get great gifts, but that doesn't seem to manifest itself too easily. Well, enjoy your day, here are a few photos from our weekend.

He took my to visit an old colonial village, where old houses and cabins had been relocated. It was MAGICAL. Here is the cute barber shop. We ran around looking in all the windows like kids at a candy shop. Can't wait to go back and visit when the houses are open!


Ridin the train.

They also had a farm with cows and horses, which made my day! I love farms and being outdoors

A glimpse of the beautiful sunset we were enjoying all evening.

Then we hiked up behind the U to a rock I use to visit almost everyday and enjoyed an unbelievable view of the Salt Lake City.

We went to the Red Iguana for REALLY yummy mexican food.

All dolled up for a night on the town.

Adventure Weekend

So excited that in a few short hours I'm leaving with my hubby on a secret rendezvous somewhere. He won't tell me the location, so of course I'm been going crazy all week thinking about it and now it's FINALLY here! So, everyone have a good weekend, I know I will! I'll be relaxing with my husband is some fun, new place!

I'll leave you a with a few pictures of Caleb, something I love about him is that he is a goofball! Hard to even get a serious picture of him. He has fun with life.

Have a great weekend!

Monday

Happy Monday!

Woke up to rain on the windows, which is SO lovely. I am enjoying the gloomy weather so far! I am LOVING the new banner Rachel Hahn made me for this blog and my shop! She is so talented and I'm grateful to have her as my best friend! Thanks Rache!

I had my first sale over the weekend, which was super exciting! It was fun to figure out shipping ideas and how to wrap a feather headband, not as easy as you'd think.

I'm ready to tackle this week!

New Treasures

I'm excited to say, new items will be in the shop tomorrow!! Good start to the weekend, spent all afternoon working on it and can't wait to have my lovely little sister model for you! Tonight I'll be off to some italian pizza with my little brother and husband! Hope you all have a GREAT weekend!

also time to take Lucy out to play!

Night Walks

One of my favorite places is outside at night. Almost every house I've lived in has had a field a few steps away. Its a rush to be run as fast as I can across a dark field where no one can see me and I feel like the fastest person who has stepped foot on earth. I love being able to dance wildly in the middle of no where in the dark and feel absolutely beautiful. It's the feeling of being completely free and innocent. I'm never been afraid of the night. I used to take long walks at night alone and I was just in bliss. Its a nice time to think with less distractions. See, during the day there is so much more for your eyes to focus on and your ears to hear, at night everyone is asleep and its black all around you.

A few things I thought about tonight, mostly unfinished thoughts, but its nice to start working things out in my head. I think about people, relationships, from the past and present. How some of your favorite things can be taken away, just because of new memories and other memories become so vivid they change you. I live by the free way, and I just wanna get on and go. Just drive several hours to a new city. It'd be nice to come and go as I please, though I'm sure it'd be lonely, I guess I just don't know how to settle down yet. It's a process right? How long does each season in life last? It seems they keep getting longer. Maybe not. I can take comfort in the Truth that God knows exactly where I am right now and where I am going.

Shop

GOOD MORNING.
I had a wonderful weekend. I ended up taking Friday off to explore antique and thrift stores with my sweet hubs. Also on Friday, enjoyed getting tatted with my my father-in-law Dana, it was a great date night!
Saturday we had a Halloween party that turned out fantastic. It was a blast seeing everyone dressed up in crazy outfits.
Saturday morning and most of Sunday I worked on getting the shop up. My best friend Rachel was a HUGE help to get things started online on Saturday! It is still DEFINITELY under construction, as I'm still just learning everything, but it's fun to say I have some items up there! Soon I'll have a banner and make it more personal! Take a look at what's up so far! http://www.etsy.com/shop/KelseaYetton
Enjoy your Monday!
