Barefoot is Best: EBEW Pattern Mixing
This is my first attempt at joining the Everybody Everywear phenom. side note: every time I see “Everybody Everywhere” I think of the cleanup song we sang in Kindergarden. You know which one I’m talking about? Its been in my head for like 48 days straight now…. So the challenge this month is pattern mixing. …
Read MoreWhen Boats Attack
Sorry this is so late poodles. We had a boat emergency. See the water here in Alexandria is so super de duper high that the boat lifts can’t even lift the boats out of the water. So, since the boat lift we have was kinda still in the water, and the waves were large enough…
Read MoreSuper Awesome Thrifting
I don’t know what it is about the Midwest but thrifting here is awesome pawsome. I used pawsome instead of possum because possum makes me thing of possums and those things are gross and not awesome at all. Here is my latest haul. Super colorful scarf, 2 sets of non pierced earrings, and a super…
Read MoreArt in the Park
Sorry for the lack of posting. My computer died a harsh death and Husband’s computer and my camera can’t play nice. So we had to perform some technology CPR. Like I’ve stated before, this lil town has some serious culture. Including a yearly art show hosted by the city park. Husband and I went this…
Read MoreI'm on a boat!
All we did this weekend was boat around the lakes. We are incredibly spoiled. The only thing going through my head was this song: **Disclaimer: this is a swear heavy song… like F bombs all over the place. Watch at your own risk** The Lonely Island may be the best thing ever. Its my boating…
Read MoreDirty Rotten Scoundrels
Last night we saw Dirty Rotten Scoundrels at Theater L’Homme Dieu here in Alexandria. (FYI the locals pronounce it la-homma-do) It was obvs based on the movie but this is the Broadway version so it was a musical. How clever is that? Of course my favorite character is Muriel of Omaha. She also had some…
Read MoreOmaha, Somewhere in Middle America…
This may be the most random post in the history of posts. Husband and I stopped in Omaha for a bit before we headed to MN. I spent a good deal of time with my siblings which is always fun. I am the oldest of this brood. See that one in the back on…
Read MoreCalling this 30 for 30
Its ovah. I made it half way. And now I’m quitting. Everyone else is done. Also, I did not pick my 30 items wisely. 6 shirts and like 4 dresses? How dumb was that?! I put 2 sweaters in there too. Cuz the super sauna weather in Houston calls for a cardigan. Idiot. So I’m…
Read MoreDay 15 of 30: Rainy Pool Day
I’d like to point out that most everyone doing this challenge is done. Not me. I”m a total underachiever. Half way baby. Good enough for me. So we had a super de duper busy weekend. One of our friends had a baby and said baby was being baptized. Which, of course, calls for a weekend…
Read MoreDay 14 of 30: Minnesota Bound 2.0
I wore this outfit to pick Husband up from the airport. I always dress nice in hopes he’ll want to go out to eat or go see a movie. What he usually wants to do is grab some Jimmy Johns and go home. Lame. But I did talk him into getting pizza for dinner. Small…
