The Flamingo, The Turtle and Sean

So stinkin' cute.

And.... here's Sean.
Any guesses on what/who Sean is?

Picture Day!

Today was Picture Day at Reagan's Preschool. She was so pumped about her cute outfit-- Thanks Grandma! I love the first picture of Ian looking at her lovingly...

She's pretty cute, huh?!

The heat is on...

Our furnace has finally kicked in for the season. Hence, the happy fat cat hogging the heat straight from the vent.

Palm Desert

Last weekend, I had the opportunity to get away with 4 of my girlfriends. We left really early on Thursday morning and flew down to Palm Desert for a weekend of relaxation. It was such a blessing. We relaxed in the pool (it was 110 degrees and therefore we couldn't sit by the pool... we had to be in it.), we tried to read, did a little shopping, ate great food (including a trip to In-N-Out Burger), one of us did Karaoke, and we laughed a ton.

Thanks girls, for a wonderfully refreshing time! Can't wait to do it again!

And.... thanks to my incredible husband who worked his tail off at home while I was enjoying my time away. My sister called me at one point to tell me what an amazing job Sean was doing! I am so blessed... my cup overflows.

This is what I came home to on late Sunday evening.... I immediately burst into tears when I pulled into the driveway :)

My new favorite indulgence...

Here it is.... my new favorite indulgence. (Thanks Maegan!!!) I like to refer to it as "a chocolate covered pretzel in a cup".

Starbucks Salted Caramel Signature Hot Chocolate
This delicious sweet and salty combination brings together our rich, indulgent Signature Hot Chocolate and the flavors of buttery caramel and smoked sea salt. It is topped with whipped cream, a swirl of caramel and a sprinkle of our sea salt topping - a combination of artisan sea salt and Turbinado sugar from Hawaii.

If you are like me... and you like the combination of salty and sweet, then you need to get in the car, right now, and go to your nearest Coffee Giant and try this. Come on, you know there is one just up the street. And if that one is too busy, then just go to the one on the next corner.

Be sure to let me know if you try it!

So much to blog about.... so little time!

Okay, so I could probably find the time. Maybe it's lack of motivation!

Here are some posts I need to work on:

1. My weekend away in Palm Springs with girlfriends.
2. My incredible husband.
3. The weekend we spent at the Iverson's lake house
4. More pictures from Bella Beach
5. My amazing husband.
6. A new favorite indulgence.

Okay, you get the picture. I'll get crackin'.
