Happy Monday night all!

Monday night has become one that I really look forward to for one reason.....a new series on The Bachelorette. Yes, some think this show is insanely silly, but I like it. :)
So......#1 on my list of loves for this Monday:
The new bachelorette, Ashley.
(and may I just say Bently is a real tool?)

52 lists in 52 weeks// week 1

Welcome to the very first week of 52 lists/52 weeks!!
I'm so excited that so many of you have signed up to try this with me!!! I can't wait to see how creative yall get!!!
So without further adieu ....the very first week of the series!

Week 1: "Today I will....."

The above is my very first list to show yall. What I love about lists is that they help me make goals for the year, month, and even day. So I figured, what better way to start this list series that to start with today. So, your turn...what's on your plate for today??

And don't forget to post your lists in the comment section below and in our flickr group so that we can all share them with each other. :)

life as of late


My life as of late has consisted of a suns baseball game, birthday cupcakes and cakes, fancy girly drinks, the pool, hanging out with friends, airport rides, missing Steven, picking up Steven, board games (did you know I was the President, got the Pulitzer and Nobel Peace Price, and created a new teaching method?...see below), celebrating Steven's promotion, cat sat, worked at the law firm a few days, and quit my church job.
Whew. Life has been full....and minus the not having a job yet, I'm surprisingly happy.

And starting Sunday is the 52 lists feature. And I am soooo excited for how many of you that want to join. Can't wait!
And now...the millions of photos I've taken lately. :)

a year in lists (52 weeks, 52 lists)


I have been dreaming up this idea for a couple of weeks now and I am soooo excited to share it with yall!!!

Starting this coming Sunday (June 5th) I am going to be adding a new feature on my blog, for a whole year! It's called 52 lists, 52 weeks. (Because I am in love with creating lists!)

I got the inspiration while checking out different sites. My sources of inspiration are from here and then here.... While I love these ideas, this feature is different (please keep that in mind). I merely used these sites as inspiration. :)

The whole idea of the feature:

Each Sunday I will be posting a new list here on my blog. And I want YOU to create your own version of the weekly list and then share it so we can all see.

This feature will also include:
-Featured guest posts from blogger pals with their own lists for us to create that week

-Fun lists to create, like "things other people probably don't know about me" or "things i wish i knew 5 years ago" (plus many, many more!)

-a fun flickr group for you to upload your photos to, so we can share there as well!

-a variety of ways to share your lists. I will include different ways myself, from creating handmade lists in a fun notebook (which I purchased at this etsy store)

or simply typing my lists online and sharing a snapshot with yall. Plus many more ways (and all of which will be shown here on my blog weekly and on the flickr group).

Remember, this starts next Sunday and will continue for a year!!! I think it will give us bloggers a great way to interact, show our creative sides and encourage each other! Plus, it's free and fun!!

Please let me know in the comment section if you plan on joining, so we can start linking blogs! And don't forget to also join the flickr group!!


See you in a couple of days!

xoxo
