my husband is the Twilight Grinch

I'm sure this doesn't come as a shock to most of you. He can't stand Kstew or RobPat. ESPECIALLY RobPat. So last night when he came in the room saying

"So do I look like Edward?"

I about DIED laughing. He gave me his best RobPat face
"yes! you do look like Edward!"
"well, then you need to look like Bella!"
so he reached over and messed up my beautifully perfect ponytail
I was not amused. no picture was taken

So anyway, this week was pretty crafty. I put this together myself :)

I guess that's not that crafty, but it's a start. I think it's a cute set up.
BUT here's the REAL crafty part

we made these AWESOME guitar hooks for our AWESOME guitars

so ya. they are pretty sweet. if anybody wants one, just ask! I can totally make you one, or tell you how to make one.

so anyway, life is going great. Tomorrow morning we leave for NEWPORT BEACH CALIFORNIA! My grandpa is taking the whole family there for a week of beachy fun! I also can't wait, because I get to go here:Isn't the Newport Beach Temple BEAUTIFUL?
I'm excited.
Anyway, I'll post about our awesome trip when I get back in one week!

loves,

THis is Nicki

She is my funny friend

She is a BEAUTIFUL friend

This weekend we celebrated my awesome friend's birthday
Angela, my other super fantastic friend, made this super cute frame
I brought the super cute card, that I didn't make, because I'm not crafty
I let other people be crafty for me and I take the credit

Here is a close up of my favorite picture on the frame
(found in the bottom left corner)
I seriously love this picture
I have such beautiful friends :)
We had a blast getting together for the first time since I got married.
we're "special" sometimes :)

good friends never go out of style :)

Greetings from the land of the wed

I am proud to say that a little bit of creativity has come out in me this weekend. When I say a little bit, I really mean the tiniest bit possible. Nick and I went searching for curtains to glam up the window that is behind our bed and we found some! It's hard to find the right color when you're at the store and don't have your bedspread to look at, or when you are completely lacking in creative ability {ME}, but the curtains are PERFECT.

Nick and I are having a blast being married. We have learned so much and we continue to learn so much more every day. I love Nick so much and I am so blessed to have such a compassionate and patient husband. Stay tuned for more adventures from the land of the wed! :)

{kristin - make up + swimming = scary}
sadly it's our first normal non-wedding picture taken since we've been married
but Nick is looking extremely attractive and I wanted to show him off :)

LOVES!
