November DIY

Apparently I was feeling crafty (I despise that word, but what else can be used?) in November...

Whitney requested my assistance at her ward's Fantastic Friday night to make a couple of the bracelets I've made over the last while. I actually enjoyed myself, and momentarily felt like it might be fun to attend some of my ward's things. Then...I remembered that I truly live in one of the worst wards. (don't worry, the Bishop admitted others feel the same way)

I jazzed up a couple frames to FINALLY hang up a few prints in Samson's room that I've had lying around for mooooooonths.

Ahhh, the best of all. We have these fantastic built ins that offer a great deal of storage space, but the glass (ahem...plastic) doors don't hide anything at all. I've tried to store things in cute, patterned boxes and such, but that's near impossible and gets expensive. So, after living here for 1.5 years I wisened up and got myself a roll of wrapping paper, and after a little measuring, cutting and taping...

WAH-LAH!

Those Few Hairs He Has...

Other times, I call upon others to cut my son's hair. I figure someone's got to hold him. Might as well be moi. (He's sort of in love with me)

VERY enthused.

See that expression on his face!? Just thrilled.

What if we called them Mee and Bria?

Sometimes I am called upon for at-home hair cuts, and when it's these two cuties, it's quite a treat. 

Oh, that iPad. How you've changed all our lives.

Discovering Fallen Leaves

Sam (and Bee) thoroughly enjoyed leaving the house one fall afternoon to find our trees had shed most of their leaves. I love experiencing the world through this little dude's eyes.

Looking back at photos it seems November was a big month for Samson and Bee. 

Dressing a Boy

Is way more fun than I ever imagined.

There Was This One Night...

...My insta-friend Lauren drove her hot little booty to Provo from North Salt Lake to spend one last love-filled evening with me, and ChelseaCourtney. 

Free JDawgs. All it takes is a little flashing. Of our smiles, you pervs!

Let's Instagram each other, ok?

And then ourselves.

Then shellac our nails!

Did I mention we left the salon at 4 am? Wee hours of the morning are a requirement with this party animal!
