that is all!! :)

better late than NEVER.

Soo here is the deal... i said i was going to show you my room.... i procrastinated taking pictures...but without further ado...lets take a tour of my room.

(prepare for picture OVERLOAD.)

standing in the hallway you will see...

 take a step inside and you will see where i sleeeeeeeep.

 this would be my bed. and the extra bed turned couch/daybed thinger. oh and that zebra uhhh curtain??? There so that i can sleep. Remember that porch light that is always on..... yeah. 

please note that the 2 cheetah pillows were made by me... and my mom... from a beach towel. 

 this would be where i study. ok maybe not but looks like it could be used for that purpose :). dont mind the fact that the magnet board hasnt been hung up yet. no biggie. 

 this would be where i get ready. you may ask why the mirror and the jewelery holder are not centered with each other.... well it is because......

 when i open the closet door it doesnt hide my jewelery! 

 do ya see that dresser there in the closet?? well the bottom drawer is filled with all my hair stuff... for example ponytail holders, gel, hair spray, headbands, curling irons, my blow dryer, straighter....ect. convenient. 

 

this would be where polly now lives. cute.

 this is my whooooole closet.

 please note the owl "painting" above my bed.

 as you are leaving you will see this.... the cork board will not be naked for long. i hope.

before you go... you have to take a look in the mirror. (p.s. mirror was black, from the DI $2.... i sprayed it white, sanded it, slapped on the quote, and modge podged the crap out of it.)

 probably my favorite part of the room is this. #1 its my owl. cute. #2 this sign. seriously sometimes gets me through the day. #3 the shelf they are sitting on was a find from my first DI trip.... ya know when i got the frame for my magnet board... and it was $2. nice.

well glad ya got to see meeeeeee. ok my room. :) 

hope you enjoyed all the many animal prints. hahaha

DIY Project

Remember this lovely picture...

(not the frame the actual canvas)

Remember this little guy....

Well, he has friends....

They all live in the trees....

First of all i have to admit how much this project cost me... a total of ZERO dollars. best. project. ever. 

I took the lovely canvas painting and thought that if i sanded it down it would be fine... but no i had to take the canvas off of its frame, paint it, with paint i found in my storage room, and then i re stretched it over the frame. sorta sketchy but it worked. then i did another layer of paint and let dry over night. i already had the owls made from scrapbook paper i already had, but i needed some leaves so i got to work on that, sketched out what i wanted it to look like and then painted the branches, then modge podged the leaves and the owls on. super easy and way fun. 

i got my insperation from here

wanna know what hers looked like? 

CLICK HERE

hers is way prettier but mine is fun too! 

love you have a happy weekend!

Little miss...

Sooo today i had to open up the gym at my work this morning at 6am. MEANING i had to wake up at 5, get ready in 20 minutes and drive from idaho falls to blackfoot.So not fun.anyways... around 2-2:30 it hit me. (when you dont go to bed until after midnight...it is hard to stay focused, and awake. just FYI) i went and set my head down on a desk in the back office, and within a minute or two i was out... my coworker said that i started to sigh and then giggle, and then next thing i know im awake and full blown laughing my pants off. i have no idea what or why, but it sure did happen. sorta kinda awkward, sorta kinda awesome! haha feel free to call me....



Gold FISH

Sooo i thought that when this showed up on my desk it was the best.day.ever.

BUT... i was wrong.

Today was the BEST.day.ever. i am so luck to be surrounded by such great people!

Its OWL good!

Welp ive been to the DI again.  Ive been OBSESSED with owls lately and ive been searching for one anywhere and everyhwere.. i FINALLY found one, it is much smaller than i would like... but it is cute! i didnt like the color so i painted it white... and now Polly has a friend. 

also i made an owl for ANOTHER project im workin on....

Someone turn on the sunshine.. PLEASE!

Wanna know the best part about my weekend?! This is why my weekend was so great! I just love love love this time of the year... the only thing that would make it better is if the sun would shine!! I dont know if it was because this talk by Richard G. Scott, or what, but it seems like every return missionary that i know has started to message me on FACEBOOK. Ironic. Cant wait for more inspiration in October!

Wanna know something INTERESTING?!

Soooo my family comes home tonight (or in the morning??) and i decided that i needed to clean the house for their arrival. Somehow before i knew it i had everything, i mean EVERYTHING, from my refrigerator on my kitchen counter. There was a few leftovers that i threw out, and a bag of lettuce that was not so fresh, and so on and so forth. While i was putting everything back into the fridge i realize that most people keep food in their fridge, but in my family we like to keep: lots and LOTS of jams and jellies, salad dressings, condiments.  Basically there is just a lot of SAUCE. 

interesting. 

What's in YOUR refrigerator?! 

You might be surprised.

i was.  

Shut your mouth!!!!

So today at work someone mentioned BOLOGNA. So naturally i began to sing... "my bologna has a first name its O-S-C-A-R... my bologna has a second name its M-A-Y-E-R."

Then on my way home from work, i was just enjoying the beautiful day when i pulled up behind this....

The freakin 

WIENER MOBILE.

best day ever.

Oh No.

I have exactly 18 days until i start school. I repeat 18 days. I am no where near ready to start. When i think of ALL the things i need to do before i move, i get really nervous! I have absolutely NO motivation to pack. Figure out all everything for my classes, figure out everything for my living situation. BA! Haha i did purchase a new laptop this week, but that is one little thing on my  GIANT list of things i need to do. Let alone i am working EVERYDAY except Sunday (cause i'm here) up until the day i start school. When will the adrenaline kick in!? I know i am only going to BYUI, but still the day is sneakin up on me! No matter how stress i am, just know that i am SUPER excited! But i will miss working with YOU... (you know who you are!)

Happy Weekend!
