Bag Pipes...

Did you know that if you ask a bagpiper to teach you how to play, they are obligated to by the bagpipe code of laws?

Fascinating. :)

So I "graduated" last weekend. I say that because I have one more class that I'm taking right now and then I'll actually be done. So technically I'm an August graduate - but I was able to walk in May. So I WILL have an Associates Degree in Business Administration from Hudson Valley Community College (Yes, that is the college that Obama went to recently to promote two year colleges, no big deal)

My dad was able to come down to see me, along with my sisters. My husband was obviously there :) and my best friend decided to come along - Layla. :) It was a great day. Boiling but great.

Walking across the stage

Layla and I

Chad and the boys came later on for some food. We also got to spend the afternoon with Ross' family.

Sleeping. :)

It was a great day, I'm glad I had family and friends to spend it with.

Have a great Memorial Day!

Jade Plant....

So we had a fun morning yesterday. Lets have fun with pictures shall we.


I usually bring Medved out around 6 o'clock in the morning. This consists of me throwing on a hoodie and some rainboots and begging him to hurry up the whole time. We come back in, I feed him and give him water and then usually try to sleep for another hour or so before I have to get up to get ready. I USUALLY let him just stay in our room (making sure that everything is off the floor and the closet door is closed) but lately he would just fall asleep on the tile in front of our front door and sleep until I poke my head out of my bedroom to check on him. He's usually very harmless. So I didn't think much of it.



As you can tell - I used the word usually quite a few times in this post.

I woke up to this yesterday.

No, that is not poo. I thought that too at first. But then, upon seeing the destroyed Jade plant in the middle of the floor, knew what happened.

The dirt covered culprit.

Once he realized I was documenting this event, he decided to pose.

I called it - "Please rub my belly and remember how cute I am at this moment"

So the day consisted of a bath for the pups, some vacuuming (which made it worse actually) and shampooing the whole apartment. You can still kinda see the spot but only if you knew it was there in the first place. So if you come over, don't judge.

Sunburst...

I was talking to my husband about the sunburst mirror we have in our living room, yesterday. About the amazing deal we got for it and how much I love it.

Fast forward to today: I was looking at this Blog.


(For the record: Alice Lane - I love you, despite the fact that I will not be buying anything from you for a while)



ANYWAYYSS - I saw this mirror that they have for sale.




















Retail: $375



My Mirror :)

















Target - Retail: $24.99






Pretty much the only difference I see is $350.

Fabric....

So I literally almost died the other day when I went into that fabric store. It was amazing. It reminded me of what I hope heaven will feel like. (a little) They had a ton of goodies but I'm having a hard time choosing. (me, not being able to make a decision? Never lol)



This is what I'm loving so far:













Raid













Chevron














Greek Key
















Trellis










ikat














Pelagos









Hard to choose right?




Tell me about it.





Taking a walk with the Best Friend tonight with the furball - Excited. :)
