project casa...

nothing like waiting nearly six years to landscape the yard! but you know what? when we do projects around here - we do them right :) go big or go home right? ha

some before and after shots for you...

last fall, before the tree was planted

after said tree was planted  

and what things look like today








some of the plants we purchased


and now i just need to find a home for this cutie


what do you think...whole new house right?
we lovey love it - and thank you thank you thank you to jeffy for helping us out - we could NOT have done this without him. & hats off to hubs too - he's been working his tail off the past two weeks getting things looking all pretty like.

outfit post, haircut, & study nook


Source: polyvore.com via Rachel on Pinterest

here's my recreation of this outfit using the things in my closet before i hit up the farmer's market this morning...

what'd ya think? pretty close huh?

and did you see the new 'do?? yes, i finally did it - & went and chopped the whole thing off! i'm not super in love, but not much i can do about it now! :) it's only  hair though - and it'll grow back.
we recently acquired some bedroom furniture for our spare room. which meant the computer got the boot. it's been shunned to the basement. i didn't want it to feel like it was just like all the other junk we toss down there and then forget about.


so i created it's own nook!

it's not completely finished. but my energy level is wiped for the day - but i still wanted to share the before and after. I'll pretty it all up tomorrow and share the updates!

don't you just love it?? nothing like living in your house for almost five years and only now planting a tree :) and let's just say - we are the envy of the neighborhood though...we definitely have the biggest, straightest and prettiest tree on the block!
and these beauties caught my eye on my run tonight - pretty sure i've never randomly picked wild flowers before...not sure what got into me!! must be the most beautifullyamazinggorgeous spring day we are having. 

they might be weeds - but aren't they pretties?

bringing a little spring to my windowsill
