a very happy birthday & keeping cozy.

So I am REEEEEALLY excited about this day.

FIRST: it is my sister in love, Nicole's, birthday! And Birthdays are ALWAYS something to get excited about! We love her SO much and only wish we could be there with her to share it!! Oh.. and she is kind of the prettiest person ever.

and SECOND: All of my Project Love materials for the Winter Line came in! Clothes, screen printing supplies, you name it! eeeep! SO this means.. if I work my little butt off this week, I can hopefully get the new line released for Thanksgiving! So pray that things go smoothly AND stay tuned!!! I am SO excited about this new line! We skipped Fall this year, so I feel like I had SO much creativity brewing! Tons of cozy PLove stuff coming your way! Sweats, hoodies, long sleeves, short sleeves, EVEN a pair of holiday pajamas! GET EXCITED & keep warm in Project Love this Winter!

Love to all! and Happy Monday :)

halloween week.

suuuuper fun!

i got to dress up MANY times, thanks to the dance studio! Choices for the week included: a pumpkin, a scarecrow, a nerd & husband! "Wear your costume to dance" week... ummm don't mind if i do!  fun, fun, fun! I can't believe its finally halloween and then... NOVEMBER! how did this happen?! we had a wonderful weekend with friends and will be topping it off with my favorite halloween movie, 'hocus pocus' and passing out candy to the trick-or-treaters. we have a great system in place: one for you... and one for me :) ....can't wait! what did YOU do for halloween?!

a spoon full of sugar :)

chim, chim-iney!

aaaand my favorite part of the night, comfys.

next up?... CHRISTmas music!

home sweet home.

i just came home from a wonderful weekend home in colorado. i was actually there to teach class, but was able to sneak in a few of my favorite stops & see some, but NOT ENOUGH of my favorite people, but grateful for the time that was given & the few peeps i was able to see! first stop? colorado springs. THIS is actually what i consider 'home' when i think of colorado. the springs is where my family lived for most of my life, it wasn't until the past 2 years that they lived in fort collins. ANOTHER gorgeous place in CO, however, not where my nostalgia really gets me :)

how wonderful it was to have elle be the first warm hug i received! thankful for her & our friendship! ...and thankful for the colors of a rocky mountain fall.

breakfast time.

the wisdom tea house.

one of my FAVORITE places ever. it is the cutest. you get to pick out your very own teacup, and find a cozy place to sit among the different rooms in the house!

 how gorgeous can you be colorado?!

the mountains are SO beautiful. God did a wonderful job :) i think He had a LOT of fun making colorado. such gorgeous views, colors, smells, air! perfection.

 HAD to have jamba while in CO. that, plus sweaty dance pics with little(rach)... perfect combo.

 enjoyed a passion[[tea]]lemonade with chris' mom at the monument starbucks where husband && i got engaged, so sweet.

 meet lucy. my mom's new little french bully. i'm obsessed with her. she is super sweet & cuddly.

 leaving colorful colorado.

 home i go. professional packer... packed EXACTLY 50lbs worth :)

home is where your husband is.

i so badly wished chris could have come with me to visit colorado. i had a great time on my own, however, having him with me completes things. he is my main squeeze, other half :) and where he is, is HOME.
