What I'm Loving Wednesday

Again this week, I am linking up with Jamie for What I'm Loving Wednesday!

Here's what I'm loving this week...

OPI's Miami Beet Nail Polish

I got a pedicure while at a work off-site team trip/meeting. I randomly picked this color from what they had available and I really love it! I am tempted to go pick up my own bottle.

Newnan's Doggy Daycare WebCam

Oh yes. We go to doggy daycare. Once a week, I drop him off around 8 AM and J picks him up at 5:15 or so. He's plum exhausted by then! He'll sleep for the next 36 hours! The daycare offers a webcam that I like to peek in on throughout the day and see if I can spot him. It is a little difficult to pick out a black dog in a poor-quality video, but I can usually spot him by the tail :) These pictures are from previous visits--right now the camera is off for naptime! From 11 AM-1PM every day, they pop up crates and give everyone a treat and some quiet time. The picture of him standing alone is so funny...I checked in one day and he was just hanging out in the outside area, smiling and looking around. He stayed out there for at least 10 minutes!

Last Man Standing

Have you watched this? It is Tim Allen's new show and is, basically, Home Improvement with daughters instead of sons. J and I DVR it. We think it is really cute and funny!

I'm also loving my anniversary gift, but I'll share that in another post!

What are you loving this week? Link up and share!

One Year Ago...


...I wore a pretty dress....
...we said vows....

...and had a kick-a** party.
The first year was amazing. I can't wait to see what the years to come bring!

What I'm Loving Wednesday


What better way to break out of a writer's block than by joining in a link up?


I'm linking up with Jamie (This Kind of Love) for What I'm Loving Wednesday....

This week I'm loving:


Smoothies for breakfast

Since we've been hitting 80 degrees pretty regularly the last couple of weeks, smoothies are again becoming my morning staple. My current favorite recipe is 1 banana, 1 c. almond milk, 2 handfuls of spinach, 1 cup of frozen mixed berries and 2 TBS of natural peanut butter. Newnan loves this as well, since he gets to lick the PB spoon.

My TOMS


Everyone seems mixed on TOMS...some people hate them, some love them. I spotted these crocheted ones in Whole Foods last summer but never bought any. I finally did when they reappeared in stores a few weeks ago and I LOVE them. So comfy and they are my favorite go-to, non-Rainbow flip flop shoes :) Also, TOMS has teamed up with my sorority, Delta Gamma, for The Great Fight for Sight. DG's philanthropy is Service for Sight, benefiting the visually impaired. A perfect match for the TOMs eyewear mission. Because I tend to lose/break sunglasses, I never spend more than $10 but this is still awesome!

Easter Candy

...Specifically Cadburry Caramel Eggs. Of course, what is most exciting is the true meaning of Easter...but in terms of seasonal treats, these are my favorites. My parents came to visit last weekend and gave me and J both an Easter basket (hush.) and mine had 3 in it...two are already gone. I need to stock up before they disappear for another year! You can keep your Peeps (nasty).

That's what I'm loving this week. What about you? Link up over at This Kind of Love!

A Return?

I started this blog in May 2011 as an attempt to document our first year of marriage (and beyond!).

My last post was 6 months ago. Whoops.

All is still well. I was promoted at work so I've seen an increase in my workload. But now things are calming down and I think I have my lunchtime blogging hour back :) So hopefully I'm back in the game! I'm also going to not try and post everyday--maybe I won't run out of content this way :)

So, I'm back! I've been reading your blogs. I fail at commenting, but I'll do better. For now, I'll leave you with our family picture from Christmas:
