I'm loving Pinterest lately so I thought it would be fun to link up and share my finds for the week!

This would be perfect wedding hair someday!

I'm linking up for the first time in a while for WILW with Jamie!

There are so many things I am loving lately.

I'm loving that yesterday, June 7, was Ryan's 22nd birthday!
He had to work but he got off at 3 and could hang out with me for the rest of the day. He said that was the best present he could ask for. :) How sweet! So for dinner Ryan's dad and sister and brother-in-law came over and we made chicken fajitas!! They were really good and we got to use the new grill!

I'm loving our new grill!
I will say that it is actually an old gas grill that Ryan's dad had never used before and he gave it to us because he prefers to use charcoal, which I hate, so it was a win win situation! yay!
Monday night we cooked sausage, zucchini and squash and it was so good!

It is small but it does the job!

I'm also loving that I made banana bread yesterday and i'm really excited to eat some in the morning! My favorite thing to do is heat it up just a little bit in the microwave and then the top gets a little glaze on it!! Yum, that makes me want to go eat some now, which I shouldn't hehe.

However I did have a little accident with my Kitchen-Aid and I got batter ALL OVER ME!

PROOF... haha.

I'm also loving the new curtains we got for our living room. We have a wall of four windows and the room is super bright and gets pretty hot during the middle of the day so we needed curtains that would shield the heat. Pictures to come..

I'm loving that at night it cools down a little so I can sit outside for a little while and let the pets explore. Belle, the cat, loves to go outside but I'm scared to let her be outside alone so we go out in the backyard for about 30 min a day and she really enjoys that.

I'm loving that its swimming time and it gets pretty hot during the days. I went swimming 3 days in a row last weekend at my parents house. Summer is my favorite time.

And I'm ALWAYS loving my sweet birthday boy Ryan. :)

Even when he looks silly in the sun! :)

I'm Back!

Hello Lovely Ladies!

I have been gone for a while from this blog but I'm back and hope to keep it that way! In the month that I have been away I have finished my sophomore year of college, took a week long vacation to see my sister and baby Hayden in Oklahoma, got ACCEPTED into my major, finally (I am officially an Advertising major!!!) , watched my sister graduate from college, and lounged around the house without anything to do. During this time I had bloggers block and I couldn't think of things to post about so I hope my blogging mojo is back and I can blog on a more regular basis.

Lets start with being out of school for the summer:
I am so excited that I don't have to wake up for anything special, unless I want to of course. My parents have been bugging me to get a job but I don't know what I want to do. I really love baking so I may look for a part time job in a bakery. The only downside is that I don't know if they want experienced bakers or if they would take someone who is new at this. I mean I know how to bake a cake and the basics of icing a cake with a bag and the tools, but I'm not too familiar with writing on cakes using icing. I may email around to see if anyone needs help in my area. Another downside to working is that my car is temperamental and has been dying on me when I try to start it. My little bug has been into the shop a lot lately to "try" and fix things but so far it seems it is only a little improved. The hard thing about servicing my car is that it is a VW and so being foreign not all shops know how to work on it and if you take it to the dealership the charge you an arm and leg to do any kind of work on it. So here I am $1600 later and my car is semi-fixed..... oh joy!

On a lighter note I was so excited to get to spend a week with my sister and baby Hayden. I can't believe he is now a month old and is growing! I think he is still in premie clothes and diapers so he is still a little guy but he is healthy and so cute! I think the best kinds of vacations sometimes are vacations where you don't have much to really do so you get to relax and enjoy your time away from home. Here are some pictures of the time I was there.

So tiny.
