a thrift store find and a very frightened cat.

Max is under the impression that a large cheetah has taken up residence in our home. :) The cheetah has made Andrew very happy. Seven dollars very well spent at the local thrift shop!
And PS.
My house smells mouth-watering.
Lemon bars just out of the oven...
recipe to follow on Monday!
Enjoy the rest of your weekend, xo!

enjoying the sunshine.

Andrew is on spring break for two weeks...
So we are fully enjoying our time off,
playing in the sun,
trying to ride the two-wheeler bike,
and spending lots of time together.
:)

Oh yeah...
and we aren't the only ones in the family who are enjoying the sunshine...

Max frequently falls asleep on top of the fence in our backyard...
so sweet. :)

And
Mousey likes to roll around in the sunshine on the patio.
She knows she's a few pounds overweight,
but that's not stopping her from enjoying bikini season. :)

:)
Happy sunshine-y days!
xo!

down with the dirt.

Yawn.

That pretty much sums up my week.

I am so sorry I have been so bad at updating my blog this week.

It's just been a bit of a challenging week, still getting used to school for me, along with the huge workload that goes with it. (At least this is the last semester, I keep telling myself. Whew!) And then Andrew caught a bad cough and cold this past week... it is hitting lots of the kindergartners and it kept Andrew out of school for two days, along with making him tired, cranky, and quite unwilling to finish his little pile of homework. One of those weeks, I suppose!

But this photo makes me smile. :)

My sister happened to snap this picture of our little and crazy cat, Max. Apparently, he likes to snooze away the day, snuggled up in the dirt on the back patio. I love that Andrew's gardening shovels are still stuck in the pot as well, haha!

And I have been busily working on many, many Etsy orders. I have been very blessed lately to work with some super sweet people, and I am thankful for the work! And then I got a creative burst of energy yesterday and made some new items for the shop as well! More coming in the next few days, but for now, take a peek. :)

And with that, I leave you for the weekend, wishing you all a happy and relaxing Saturday and Sunday! :) Now I'm off to watch Project Runway, woo! xo!

kittens and popsicles!

We have been blessed with some nice, sunny & warm weather here in San Diego for the past few days. And of course, with the sunshine, the cats are lounging outside and Andrew is obsessed with snacking on yummy popsicles. (In his undies, no less! hehe!)

Or, more specifically, Andrew is eating his popsicles while holding his "little brother" Max :)
Good fun in the sunshine, right??! :) I hope you are enjoying a sunny and happy day- I know we are! xo!
