‘To-Do’ Tuesday

Is it just me or do ‘to-do’ lists sometimes give you the mean reds? I usually love my lists but it seems lately they’re never-ending! For every item I mark off the list, 5 more get added. It’s growing exponentially! Le sigh…

I’ve got lots of stuff to do and not enough time to do it. Which really is crazy since my month couldn’t be any lighter… I’m done at noon most days! I think it has to do with the fact that since it’s such a non-busy work month, I’m trying to fit everything in. Wilson’s overdue vaccinations? That dentist appointment I’ve been putting off? Getting long-overdue wedding items done? VACUUMING?? Oy vey! Too. Much.

I think I’ll grab a cup of joe, watch Breakfast at Tiffany’s, and stare at the to-do list until tomorrow rolls around… .

Good morning, dear readers! We hope you all had a fantastic weekend.

Today we’re bringing you a fabulous company with a fabulous cause. Plum Pretty Sugar is a company that sells the most amazing apparel, accessories, and home decor. They first caught our attention three years ago when we spotted their beautiful robes online! When Erin got married, she purchased their pink robes for each of the bridesmaids and a beautiful silk robe for herself for the wedding day. It was so fun getting ready in the robes and they made for some awesome pictures! We are such supporters of this company and love love love their new campaign for the month of October.

Weekend

The title of this post is a teensy bit deceiving… I really haven’t had much of a life these days! I’m getting ready for residency interview season (yikes!) and much of my time is spent at the hospital. It’s not too shabby though… the hospital is like my second home!

I did have a day off this past Saturday and spent the day watching Tad and a couple of his friends complete the Tough Mudder! In case you don’t know what this is, it’s an 11-mile obstacle course that gets you really muddy. Every mile or so is an obstacle you have to complete… one of them being the Arctic Enema where you have to swim in a freezing cold tank of water. Tad said it was an instant brain freeze like when you eat ice cream too fast. Except that times 10. Yeah, no thanks.

You get electrocuted in two of the obstacles… Yeah definitely NO THANKS. I was perfectly content being the photographer on the sidelines and will always be content being the photographer on the sidelines. I’m incredibly proud of Tad but holy moly…. Why do people do these things?? Tad and his friends trained for months and ended up running the entire way and completed all of the obstacles on the first try! So proud.

Here are some pictures from the weekend!

I must say… I’ve got one handsome fiancé 😉

Hope you’re having a fantastic Wednesday!

Happy Weekend!

Blah, Weekend

We don’t know about you all, but we have had a serious case of the blahs this week. Our school years are in full swing and the colds have started…plus it’s getting harder to get out of bed with the colder temps and later sunrises. All signs of fall and we love it. But this week was just a long ride on the struggle bus. So we don’t know about you, but we are doing a whole lotta nothing this weekend.

Commence relaxation mode!
Erin and Natalie

Ps. Stay tuned on Monday…we get our new fall header! Yay!

family, husband, Life, Purdue

Good morning friends! Thought I’d share a few photos from my life lately!

Last weekend Matt and I made a little trip to Purdue where we saw lots of friends and family! Feels so good to be able to see these people more often!

Also, Matt has taken on a lot of projects lately including these two:

(I promise I am doing things too!)

I am very fortunate he enjoys a good pop of color as much as I do. He also busted into my Martha magazine and made this fantastic skillet chocolate chip cookie!

I am trying to be better about spending money these days. I have always been a savvy shopper, but lately most of the budget has gone towards the move! However, I couldn’t pass up this rhinestone collar shirt from Kohl’s. It looks exactly like the Tilda top from JCrew.

A great deal I couldn’t pass up for $24.99! Plus, I used a $10 coupon I got from Discover…so try to locate a coupon before heading over there because they do accept coupons on sale items!
