The Lizzie Bennett Diaries.....

Woo-hoo! The next video is out and the tittle alone made me LOL(for real, I actually laughed out loud here people, that's how funny these are!)

One Skirt.....Three Days.....

I don't know abut y'all, but I'm always up for a party! =)

Spring/Summer Bucket List

Saw this on Marie's Blog, thought I would steal her idea! These are things I know I can do before fall hits! At least they are things I can theoretically get done and back on track before fall hits....as to the actual completion and or doing of them might be another story entirely! ;-)

~The big and kind of all consuming one is moving 2,000 miles to Tennessee! 

~Run for 30 minutes without dying (I will do it, I will!)

~Host a blog giveaway/event

~Actually wear some the beautiful scarves I've collected (I always tank in the summer with them!)

~Start journaling the old fashioned way more. I used to be pretty faithful, but this darn digital age has made me become lazy and lax in the pen to paper journaling department!

~Read War and Peace.....(Yeah, sure.....maybe the third times the charm!)

~Get back on track with my quiet time with God (sadly, it's been a bit hit and miss lately!)

~Organize the complete and utter mess that my recipe self has become!

~Finish a cross stitch project I've been working in for about 8 years now *shame* Not constantly for 8 years mind you, it's just one of those things I'll pick up and work on feverishly for a few weeks then lose steam and tuck away for another year.....I only have some outlining and embellishing left, so it shouldn't take more then a few weeks.....

In other news.....

.....cookies goooooood.....

...Grimm, also good.....

.....Monroe, VERY good..... ;-)

.....The Lizzie Bennett Diaries, amazingly funny! Posted the first one HERE!

I May.....

I may have become addicted to Angry Birds online (as I am lame and don't have an iPod/pad/touch screen thingy of any sort to play it on!).....

I may have a burning desire to try these products from Cadbury.....

I may be ALL DONE with my late spring/summer/early fall gift shopping (Thank you Mr. Tax return!).....

Mothers day, Moms birthday, three little sisters birthdays, little brothers birthday, Fathers Day! Now, where to hide all of these boxes.....? =)

I may be obsessively looking up real estate in Tennessee.....

These next two are a bit of a commute, but as I am not the one driving it, I don't see a problem! ;-)

I may be in love with the SONOMA life + style brand at Kohl's.....

Mother Knows Best?

blah, blah, blah....cut all my hair off....blah, blah,blah.....

Blah, blah, blah.....was supposed to look like this.....blah, blah, blah

blah, blah, blah.....my hair just really wants to look like Paula Deen's when it's short.....blah, blah, blah

blah, blah, blah.....one of these days I will finally admit my Mother is right and really believe that me and pixie cuts no longer get along (darn puberty!).....blah, blah, blah

Ahem, anywhoodle.....wore this yesterday.....

In looking back over this post I just realized I bought all of these items for at least 50% off the original price! 

Score! =)

                                                                                          

Surprise.....

Remember the hint that there might be a trip in my future? Well, guess what? It's going to happen!

...and not only am I taking the trip, the rest of the family is too, along with all of our stuff!  

Yep, you guessed it, the Pillsbury clan is moving to Tennessee! (With a stop along the way to visit big sis and my adorable little niece of course! Though early next year they will be moving to DC which is only 10 hours away from where we are moving, is that serendipitous or what?)

Dad got offered a permanent place with the company he's contracting for and he said yes! There are some i's to be dotted and t's to be crossed, but for all concerned it's a done deal and hearts are all a-flutter with the prospect of moving 2,00 miles!

I am filled with excitement, it's always been a dream of mine to live in the South.....and to acquire an accent!.....

Yes, one of the first things I did was check to see of there was a Chili's (My very favorite restaurant) close by, try more then 5!

....but I'm sad and nervous too! I'll desperately miss my tea girls!

 .....and church family we've found here. I've lived in Bend for the last 16 years, and our current house for 15 by far the longest I've lived anywhere! When we moved up form California I was 9 and there were only 5 of us. But, God has a plan and I am looking forward to see what he has in store for us in the coming months!
