Hello hello

Happy Wednesday or hump day as some may call it. Today is a exciting one because it's a snow day. On my way to work there were tiny flakes now they are HUGE flakes. I am hoping it will stick it's supposed to snow the next two days as well so we will see. But I am supposed to go test drive a car tonight so I am torn between the snow. Here are some pictures from today's snow as well as yesterday Autumn wanted to do a little photo shoot it was the cutest thing. She would pose then run to the camera to look at herself then run back and do another pose.










oh how I love snow I most likely wont have work tomorrow. So I will have myself a craft day in wahoo. I'm excited! I hope you are all enjoying your wednesday I want to say a hello to the newest followers :) say hi sometime I don't bite just hugs.

Over the weekend.

This past weekend was quite great I didn't get to sleep in like I had hoped but it was full of fun things with friends and family. I got my hair did the black roots start to really annoy me with the red hair.
But my favorite thing I this weekend was yesterday me and my friend drove the long five hours up to Olympic national park in Washington to go hiking. We've been there before but only did the mini hike that time. So this time we woke up at 4:30 and on the road by 5 then got to hiking around 11:30 it was just gorgeous we took the hoh river trail. Basically a trail in smack dab in the middle of the forest I loved it. I thought my pictures would of turned out better sadly they did not :( but here are some semi good ones.





We walked a total of 5 hours I think we only got six or seven miles in we planned for ten but we needed to get on the road soon so we didn't get home to late. I was really sore after the hike I was dreading the soreness in the morning. But not one sore muscle this morning it was great but at the same time I like that I worked out good today. I have added a goal to go hiking at least twice a month I've already gone once this month so I want to go one more time this month. Maybe do eagle creek next time I haven't hiked that in a while it's a pretty intense hike lots of hills on sides of really high cliffs but the views are just stunning. I also got to go check out some jeeps this weekend but of course the ones I wanted hadn't made it into the showroom just yet until today. After work I am going to check it out and trying to not get my hopes up just open minded and going to plant the I am just browsing seed in my head. Usually I go all " I WANT TO FIND SOMETHING" and then get let down when I don't like anything. We shall see what happens I want it to be time so I can go I get so anxious about these things.I hope you all had a great weekend and did some fun things. it zoomed by for me as they always do.

TGIT


Thank goodness its Thursday, Its my Friday. I thought it would never come. But it came at last today miss autumn and I are going to finish up our valentines day present that we didn't get to finish due to lack of sleep on her part and being extra cranky. There will be lots of red paint and glitter involved. Pictures when she's all finished. Tomorrow I will be enjoying a lovely hiking trip with my hiking buddy. I am hoping to head up to Eagle crest it's 12 miles round trip tons of waterfalls. So tonight I will be stocking up on healthy snacks to take up for lunch I need to find my point and shoot theres no way I am taking my baby nikon with me since the trails are one person wide on a super high cliff.

This is punch bowl falls,theres rocks in the water so you can get semi close to the actual water fall.




Pretty isn't it? Gosh I love my state it's so green and pretty.

Starting up hiking again has reminded me I need new shoes mine are kind of getting warn I love me some new nike's but eek why do they have to be so pricey. Time to get out the coupon book I think. And I want to buy cute new excersie clothes I do this every time haha. Also today I am loving my outfit today it's one of my dresses I got last weekend I thought it was 80's but I am thinking now it's either late 80's very early 90's because my mom had something like this when I was younger.

This is what I wore today.





Cardigan: Thrifted
Dress: Thrifted
Leggings: Victoria secret
Boots (Yes I love these boots) Target

Tonight will consist of Champagne and Greys anatomy.



It's my little routine to wind down on Thursday nights. I love them so, do you have any fun routines on your Friday's

what i wore




Today has been quite the day I got up at 4:30 to do my workout I need to be awake for a good half hour to be in the mood to work out. Did that and my oh my is that Jillian micheals 30 day shred intense I felt like I was on biggest loser or something I feel so out of shape eesh. my whole body felt like jello I also probably shouldn't have done it on a empty stomach just a bad idea. In other news I got my car back last night it was fine. Then came this morning thankfully today I didn't have to work. But I still had stuff that needed to be done this morning. I made it not even half way before my car started acting up again :( I am getting even more stressed with that car. They test drove it and said everything was fine. But this is how my car works it works for a day then goes back to not working. I am even more ready to move on and get a new car. But I need to get it fixed to be able to trade in so I can get a new car. So I am car less at the moment I barely made it to my sisters house looks like I will be getting a rental car yet again. Thankfully my mom still has the jeep I was renting so I can just steal that from her tonight. And this is what I wore today.








Cartigan: Target
Dress: Target
Tank top: Velvet
Leggings: Victoria secret
Boots: Target
Scarf: Love quotes

Well me and miss autumn are going to do some valentines day painting project for her momma's present. I hope you all are enjoying today its fa fa freezing over here no snow but my car had a giant sheet of ice of over.

Today in pictures

Today miss autumn and I drove around mainly because I just want to drive my borrowed jeep all day. But sadly tomorrow night my mom will be taking it over to test it out. She's been wanting to trade her giant boat of a car in for a smaller car. I will have my baby back but I am sadly going to have to either trade her in or sale her most likely trade in because I don't see someone buying it with so many miles on it. So I'm going to to upgrade to a 2008 it still has the old and new jeep look that I like.

I am a jeep girl and will always be one. My parents both had one when I was growing up, my sister has one as well.

Today me and autumn went to my house for lunch so I could do some laundry. I took some pictures. They are really cute enjoy.






I love watching this little girl so much she has so much personality I love watching her grow. We didn't make it to the craft store today because I realized she didn't come today with shoes so that would be a issue as she loves to walk around and pick things out. So tomorrow that will get done. We're going to make some valentine day cards for family. It will be loads of fun. Also some how I managed to order this dress yet again


don't ask me how that happened I feel a tad silly. But I think it's sold out so I wanted to ask if anyone possibly wanted to buy it if not I will just return it. Let me know if you're interested.

Enjoy your monday.

weekend wrap up

Ello there lovies,

I hope your all enjoying your weekends being lazy and relaxing the way weekends should be. This weekend I tried to sleep in but of course my body had other plans and woke me up at seven both yesterday and today. Technically its sleeping in since I get up at five every morning. I spent it eating so much yummy sushi at Sansai sushi BEST sushi in Portland, And vintage shopping with my lovely friend miss Tami I really enjoy vintage shopping with her, because we have such a love and appreciation for vintage. It's really hard to shop with people who don't because I just go into this little girl in a candy store mode and get lost. When I would go with friends who didn't necessarily love vintage id get comments like "why do you pay for people's old junk?" etc. I just prefer old over new. Anywhoo I wanted to share some of my cute pieces we stopped into a few places and no luck I was so pumped up for bombshell vintage and the sign said "we're open!" and nope the store was completely dark and nobody was inside. So we shopped around at this other vintage shop to come back a hour later STILL closed. It kind of put a bad taste in my mouth with them. Maybe another day I'll go back. At that point I was feeling down on my mission of cute spring dresses. But I remembered about Pink vintage and red light on Hawthorne I NEVER have walked out of those stores empty handed and what do you know I found some goodies I am so so happy with my cute dresses and skirt. There was still a cute dress in the window I need to go back and check out but I had already spent a pretty penny in that store so when I get paid I will have to go back in and see if it's still there and if it is it was meant to be.

Also this is what i wore.






Cartigan: Target circa 2007
Dress: Urban outfitters
Tights: Target
Shoes: Urban outfitters

A little peak at my vintage finds.

Dresses dresses.





I can't wait for spring.

I also stopped into lush went in for a face mask came out with
-3 bath bombs (That I don't need but want because they smell yummy)
-Soap (Because it has cute flowers on it)
-Face soap (Actually did need that
-Face toner

Ok so I needed about half of what I got but still it was $$ but I feel ok pampering myself.


And its dangerous that its only 10 mins from my house. I mean it's nice if I run out of something its easier to run down there. My friend used my bathroom and told me "Your bathroom smells just like a lush store I love it!" After all that great shopping I thought it was a fantastic weekend. But this morning that changed quite quickly my car died on me and I found out the reason why I popped my hood to find that my engine cap wasn't even on it was lodged next to it. Not really sure how that exactly happened. But I dropped it off to be fixed and checked out. So for a few days I will be renting a car to get to and from work. I hope my baby is ok. I am excited to test this baby for a few days though.



I hope they have one with a sunroof and then the weather to be nice out so me and autumn can drive around.

And one last picture to make you go aww.My mom's puppy she LOVES mudd and destroing the yard. saves us from tearing it all up this spring to re do the yard. My mom doesn't see it that way but I tried to help.



That was my weekend all in all I had a fantastic time. I may have had car problems but my dad once told me when you buy a used car "You're buying someone else's problems" So thats how I see it. I hope you all had a fun weekend.
