Hello Lovelies! Here is my ‘friday 5 spot’.I know you have been missing it desperately. {enter sarcasm}.
1. It is Friday and the sun is shining. Here is my view! Mountains people!
2.I woke up with my husband this morning but didn’t actually want to get out of bed. So I stayed under the down comforter and read my morning news for an hour. And by news I mean fb, twitter and google reader. I know. I am so educated about the world around me. Like, I know who everyone hates on this season of The Bachelor, that it is snowing at my friends house in Colorado and that other people {besides me} can’t log into pinterest. Big stuff.
But since it was early and my house was still quiet, I went to Bela’s (who was waking up) bed and asked her to sit with the iPad and keep vigil while I ran to the store to buy donuts. And they were devoured with coffee and board games this morning. The good life peeps. I can’t wait for a couple of years when I can pay her to babysit! {she can’t either!}
3. For Christmas in my stocking I got the book Zeitoun from my brother. {Yes, we are that family who still exchanges stocking stuffers with every. single. grown. up. member. of. the. family. I love it!} He had got himself a copy as well. Well, we read it and then had a little two person book club last week discussing the incredible real life account of Hurricane Katrina. I highly recommend it! I also recommend 2 person book clubs. It is harder to get off track. Maybe it was also due to the fact it was with a boy? Boys don’t talk about recipes and potty training and dieting and cute new purses like at my girl book club.
4. Last Saturday we went to the Tacoma Home & Garden Show. We went because there was a Vintage Junk section and I scored! I got a new desk, side table and this super fun silverware holder! I will wait to show the other items until my new living room reveal:) but here is the silverware thingy. I love, love, love it. I had been using mason jars to hold the ware, but they kept breaking on the bottom as the kids stuffed way to many forks in a quart sized jar. This is way better! And unique!
5.Tomorrow Bela and I are off to Seattle to see the musical OKLAHOMA! at the 5th Avenue Theater! We are so excited. It was one of her Christmas gifts and it is actually a sweet present because I get a date day with my daughter to boot! She loves the musical and has the soundtrack on her iPod so needless to say this is gonna be epic. {btw, I was also in this musical in high school. I know, pretty awesome, so I will be lip singing all the words as well!}.
Have a great Friday friends!
