Phone Pics

So, since I apparently have absolutely nothing blog-worthy these days, figured I could at least give you the current pictures off my phone. Totally random, but a little glimpse into my everyday life.

KCU Bible Bowl tournament was last weekend...Maddie, on my team, looked like this in every picture:

Therefore, I forced my team to pose for this picture :)

Text to Ben one day: "Salad dressing fail"

We re-financed using Mortgage Warehouse (they were awesome!) and so they sent both me and Ben an edible bouquet at work after it was all over.

Girls' Craft Night #1- tile coasters (got the idea from the tile coasters that Ashley made me!)

Ben took my car through the car wash...what a sweet husband :)

A co-worker over the cubicle wall wanted to know how my sandwich was...I figured, why try to describe it when I could just send a picture? It was good, by the way, but it was barbecue and I had ordered buffalo.

Standstill traffic on my way to work...least favorite way to start a morning.

Got a bright red TV stand off craigslist for cheap...and subsequently, some red and bluish decorations to attempt to tie together the blue rug and the red TV stand. I thought the colors might end up clashing terribly...but I really like it!

I wondered if Ben would like to see the pictures I have taped to my cubicle wall. So here's a picture of the pictures. And I haven't even shown it to Ben...but don't you feel special that I'm sharing it with you? (don't answer that)

Amanda's Baby Shower

It was just one year ago when I was helping with a baby shower for my cousin Amanda as she was adopting Eli, her first son. One year later and she's just a couple months away from giving birth to a baby boy! Crazy how quickly her family has grown!!

Just wanted to share a couple of pictures from the shower. Amanda looks amazing!! Still so small with just her big belly :) She is already a wonderful mother to Eli and will be great with baby boy #2!

Surrounded by gifts!
My cousin Haylee, my aunt Tammy, and Mom
Mom-to-be and Me!
Me and Jenn...we must be sisters, look at how similarly we dressed- ha!

Yum

I recently bought a set of 6 martini glasses as Costco- for $5!!! Can't really beat that! I also learned in my Systems Thinking class last week that Costco's profit margin is around 1%...so they only make $1 on you for every $100 you spend! Pretty amazing that they make money, but they do so of course because of volume.

Anyway, enough about profit margins and back to the martini glasses. How much better do raspberries, blueberries, and whipped cream taste when served in a martini glass??? I've always wanted martini glasses for this very reason!!

Love. Be mine.
