My Hubby Is A Genius!

We already know Mike is a pretty smart cookie, but this proves it.

Just before another tough summer in Southern California, Mike got us one of these bad boys...

Now, some of you might think this is stupid, BUT the tap water quality in Southern California isn't always the best and our little fridge water filter was tuckered out.

So, now we are livin' it up with our fancy filtered water and enjoying the good life.

Cheers!!

I might be slightly obsessed...

There is something magical about weddings.

But add in the 'Royalty' factor and a picture-perfect, uber-stylish bride and I'm hooked!

I've been pretty quiet about my obsession with Kate Middleton...or, now known as Her Royal Highness, Duchess of Cambridge. But after watching the wedding at 1:00amPST this morning while on the phone with my best friend Holly, I think it is time to let my little freak flag fly.

"Love the bag, love the shoes, love everything!"

Two thumbs WAY up for the modest Maid of Honor dress...

...and Kate's 2nd dress for the reception

Like I said...magical!

Big Blonde Changes....

There have been some big changes in our little household this week.

And one of those changes: I'm no longer a brunette.

Yes my friends, I've gone back to blonde. Reunited and it feels so good!

My picture resolution isn't the best, but it gets the job done:

Me with my new fancy-pants hair clippie I made yesterday

Close-up of my amazing clippie

My stylist added a little feather action underneath my top layers for a little pizazz.

So much hair...and maybe just a little too much time in front of the webcam

Clearly I'm ready for summer!

Blonde vs. Red...Which One, Which One?

I've been sporting the brunette look for awhile now and I'm ready for a change.

The problem is...I don't know which direction to go!

Blonde or Red???

I've been a blonde before and it is my "go-to" color. It is definitely the safe choice!

But I've been thinking about going red...a bold red!

Decisions, decisions....

Here are my past colors and the RED I'm thinking about...

Past Color:

Current Color:

Possible color????

What do you think?

Decluttering

My little mission this month has been to de-clutter

our house
my closet
my life... etc., etc., etc.

So, when I was cleaning out our extra closet, I found our DVD collection, I was super excited to find this little gem...

One of my favorite movies that didn't get that much publicity.

Love Claire Danes, Michelle Pfeiffer and Robert De Niro. Love them all.

If you haven't seen it, go rent it. Just a cute movie that leaves me wondering if Michelle Pfeiffer ever ages!

Resoultions for the New Year

I'm a visual person.
I like pictures to illustrate my thoughts and feelings.

So, when I saw this gem...I knew it perfectly depicted my feelings after a season on indulging.

Anyone else feel the same way?

I'm so ready to crack the whip on my new resolutions.

Here's a few things on my list:

1. Handle my Stress-levels better

I'm not ready to admit my shoe addiction. Maybe 2012.

2. Stay positive, slow down and just enjoy the little things

3. Embrace all my quirks and nerdy attributes since that is what makes me unique

We will see how it goes this year. So far, I'm totally rockin' my new goals.

Never-mind that it is only January 1st.

Happy 2011 everyone!
