Embracing my Canadian-ness

My hockey loving friend thought it would be fun to bring the Canadian who knows nothing about hockey to a game. We were seven rows up, saw a fight, saw a players 1000th goal, and there was almost a hat trick haha.

Some things that I am totally lovin or are making me laugh right now:

Conversations with friends that make you get giggles at work. The draw it game and the fact that I think my Ariel is phenom.

The awkward moments at work that seem to happen to me a lot. I think I am really living the show The Office.When my friends and I go to the store and discover a carnival so naturally we stop, ride my least favorite ride, get tears from laughing so hard, and eat tons of junk food.

The fact that I am in love with my neighborhood

Palm walk and my love for it will never die. I truly miss my time at ASU.

Nights with friends when you laugh so hard your cheeks hurt, the smell of Arizona spring nights, all of the summer songs on the radio, and eighty degree weather just to name a few more.

My phone screen says it all:

Monday

This chilly Monday calls for a movie, a new blanket, and some freshly baked cookies with milk :)

Two Kids in a Candy Shop

my sister and I love learning about new cute places around Arizona. When we heard about this quirky candy shop we just had to adventure out and see it for ourselves. We always have the most ridiculous adventures together which usually end in our stomachs and cheeks hurting from laughing so much! We were literally two kids in a candy shop oooing and awing over everything inside. There were so many cute things to see and we spent quite awhile looking at it all. I was also quite excited when I discovered my FAVORITE Canadian candy! Score!

We ended the day with some antiquing and a taco bell run :)

Thanks for the fun day sis!

Lucky!

Yeah, I am pretty lucky....

I got to spend my St Patricks Day with these cuties at my neighborhood block party.

It was a day filled with carnival games, food, bounce houses, face painting, pony rides, rock climbing, and trampoline jumping! The boys had a lot of fun!

I amazed myself

I'm really not sew savvy to be quite frank but when I saw this sew e-z I figured how hard can it be? Plus with a 40% off coupon to make the purchase a mere $24 I couldn't pass it up. After an hour and a half of trying to get the bobbin to work (isnt this supposed to be easy?) I whipped up this banner in five minutes! Next project will be pillow mayhem!!

Happy Friday!
