Winter has come

Winter time has come to the 'Peg! We have had lots of snow and several snow globe-esque days (in the words of Courtney). This weekend Shoes and I will spend some time getting our place ready for the holidays! We are very excited!

Wreath making time c/o Target.

I am super pumped for the holidays, which is ridiculous especially since it's only November 20. But oh well. I look forward to baking, time off, and decking the halls of our new home. I bought a new wreath with fun stuff to decorate it with from Target. I have new plans for how to display our beautiful cards. I am very excited!

Hooray for the first post in over a month!

Yesterday was my cousins, Courtney and Jesse's, wedding. It was a gorgeous affair, filled with lovely details that reflected the two of them. I am so happy for the two of them! These are just a few of the details that I captured throughout the day. Congratulations Courtney & Jesse!

Dreaming About: A much needed break from work. Ha.

Reading: I finished re-reading "I'll Seize the Day Tomorrow" by Jonathan Goldstein. I needed something to make me laugh.

Loving: Coaching ultimate frisbee. Two more weeks!

Watching: Arrow. I was hesitant to watch it but I ended up really enjoying it.

Anticipating: A lot! **

Listening To: A mix... and trying not to listen to Christmas music yet (I am ridiculous)

Planning On: Doing some marking!

Working On: Budgeting for our trip

Wishing: I had done more work over the summer... oh...

Reflecting On: The past month of school

Enjoying: The beautiful fall colours!

Pondering: On how to get a My MagicBand for our trip...

** A lot of things are coming up! Courtney's wedding next week (super pumped!), going to see Mark Forward to a bit of comedy, and last but not least... Matt's and my wedding anniversary! We have some fun stuff planned for October. It's going to be loads of fun!

I haven't updated anything yet... because I really have had very little to update. I have been working, coaching, running, and doing lots of activities for the school. These weekends go by so fast, I end up spending most of them sleeping (however, if I spent most of them working and spent most of my weekdays sleeping, we wouldn't be having this problem... haha).

PS - those are my new glasses in the photo!

Beautiful highball tumblers from @thelostweb and Kathryn!

I needed to post these. My brother and his girlfriend gave Shoes and me these lovely Kate Spade highball tumblers. It was really crazy because I had seen them and was considering purchasing them, but decided that it's probably inappropriate to purchase them for oneself. And then ta-da, I receive this package. It was like she (because let's face it, it was not my brother's idea) had read my mind.

So gorgeous. I beautiful addition to our bar!

The leaves are changing and it's getting dark sooner... Time for #PSL10 Back at it.

So it's back to school time and I've been hard at work! It's been a little tough, what with me being lazy all summer and forgetting to prepare. But hey, if I am anything, I am quick on my feet. Also, I guess I have been around for a while so it's not like everything is brand-spanking new. I don't have as much work everything which I guess is great. Anyways, here is some iPhoneography capturing the beginning of fall!

PS - getting new glasses soon!!

Just under two weeks ago was Courtney's wedding shower. It was so lovely and cute, just like the guest of honour herself! I brought my camera, because I know how important it is to have pictures of all of these days and thought that Courtney probably wouldn't have a camera with her, being the bride and all. Nope! What is she up to? Taking photos of all the details! So adorable!
