home is where the heart is// snow days

Due to the constant change in the weather here I have had the opportunity to spend a lot of my time at home. I love spending time in the comfort in my own home. Nothing brings me greater joy than spending time with my family and friends in my house. I love having people over just to hangout and watch some reality TV a la the Kardashians. As you guys know I am kind of obsessed with them (you can read about them here). As I am writing this post Em & I are watching a marathon of reruns on E!

Throughout the 11 something snow days I have gotten involved in the wonderful world of eBay and selling all of my stuff that I have no longer any sentimental attachment to. I am selling a whole spectrum of sorts. I have everything from clothes that I have worn once to journals, build a bears, and coach purses. Anything you could ever want I am pretty confident that you can find it on my eBay. Go check it out here! I am sure you should snatch some of my great deals up!

Since I haven't mentioned anything about the holidays I have decided to add some of the great memories that Emma has captured with her brand new camera that she got for Christmas from our wonderful grandparents.

Emma woke up in the middle of the night and placed all these perfectly cut snow flakes around the door frame! Too cute!

Momma's Broncos tervis! Surprise!

All of these pictures were taken by Emma! Shes an amazing photographer! Even though she's 12 and she's just starting out!

Here's some of the awesome pictures that she's taken so far!

Beautiful snow beauties!!!

All and all I am very thankful for everything life is offering me right now. I cannot wait to see what the future holds for me.

Love Always,

Alex

Hello friends! As you may or may not know we have been having lots of snow in this part of the nation. I am trying to make the most of it. Its getting harder seeing pictures of our future vacation spot. Also, I have been reminiscing on summer and how tan I was yet again. Not hard to do when you're stuck in a 12 degree climate. Its crazy to think that Tuesday it was sunny, 70, and I wore shorts. I would say this is what you call "typical Kentucky weather".

Today Bailey, Bailey and myself decided to go sledding with the boys up at the school but in our spare time we built our very first snowman ever!

[berry eyes, twizler mouth, Hersey kiss buttons, carrot nose, & steelers hat]

 

How cute is that? Its not very big but we love it!

 

 

If you know me personally you know that I'm not the biggest fan of cold weather/ snow but I toughed up today. Threw on 3 pairs of pants, 2 pairs of socks, long sleeve t-shirt, hoodie, Patagonia, and a huge jacket all equipped with some borrowed snow boots and a north face hat and I was ready to be brave and try and enjoy myself.

I also provided a photo that I snapped during the time I spent with Emmie on Thursday! No edits to it I swear ;)

Last night before hanging out with B&B, the fam went out to finally celebrate Dad's birthday but no pictures were taken on this occasion except one and this picture can describe how everyone was feeling based on the amount of waiting we had to do at Longhorns.

Other than hanging out with Kendrick today, tonight has been pretty relaxed. I'm on my second cup of coffee (iced of course) while catching up with some friends that I haven't seen or talked to in months. Ive accomplished completing all of my homework so that I can enjoy the YL Superbowl party tomorrow! I'm sure you cant wait to see that!

 

 

 

Xoxo, God Bless
