Happiest Place on Earth??

Let me start off this post by saying that I have been scolded for being a bad blogger, bad as in not blogging enough!!! So I am trying to make up for it with a flurry of posts, so keep scrolling down for more :)

One of the girls at work was at Disney World for her birthday, so to celebrate at work we had cupcakes, which were SO delicious, plates and napkins with Mickey Mouse on them as well as these funny headbands with mouse ears on them. The rest of the week was quite challenging as we were really busy and short a person. To rally, Ivy and I wore our ears every day, it was necessary to keep things moving. On Thursday Cheryl made us little polka dot bows for our ears, just like Minnie! It is times like this that I really love the people that I work with!

Silly Flowers...

This is Seattle in April! Last week I decided to go for a walk at Greenlake after work. It had been a long day and I thought that the fresh air would do me some good. We had had a few days of warm weather a few weekends ago and everything started to pop, flowers, trees, lawns. However, in true Seattle fashion the weather turned cool again and still the flowers continued to reach for the sun...



It was a much needed walk and I took the next picture as a parting shot on a cool overcast day in the Emerald City.

Couch-Land


The latest great debate has been getting a new couch, I had 2 smaller couches from Connecticut, but they really weren't cutting it. The hunt has been on for a new couch, but how much to spend, how big should it be etc.??? The Costco Home in Kirkland is going to close so 2 weekends ago I tagged along with Angie and Steve and scouted out this couch. Not on any super sale, but the price was too good to pass up. So a few days later the couch was purchased, the U-Haul was rented and the switch was made. Now the seating options are endless and the living room is full of nothing but COUCH!!!!!!!!!

Click It or Ticket!

For Valentines Day I got a beautiful vase of roses from Greg at work, but needed to get them home. Not having a box to transport them in was an issue... what to do! Michelle came up with the easy answer, "Put them in the car seat and belt them in!" So that is just what I did :)
