Wow-- this is my IDEAL Christmas decor. If only I had the space/ money to do this to our place! Isn't it beautiful!?

Now that we know where we're going to school (YES!! I'll post more on that later), I have been thinking about anything and everything baby. I feel like I can finally begin to PLAN. You can go SO expensive with baby and I keep having to remind myself-- we're going to lose two incomes and that Chance will be going to be at an AMAZING business school that costs BAZOOKOO bucks. I can't indulge as much as I would like.

That being said, I still lust after this-- and I must say, it's a good compromise to some of the other ones I was looking at. =) Also, my taste in diaper bags has changed a lot in the past 6 1/2 months. At first I was more in to the Timi & Leslie look, but now I'm leaning in a completely different direction. Maybe the hubs will let me splurge. I always hear that baby diaper bags that can also be a backpack are the most reasonable and I guess that makes sense. I can't handle keep my purse over my shoulder right now as is!

As for our Xmas plans, we are heading off to Arizona and are both so excited. It's been dealthy cold here and we haven't seen the Olson fam (most of them) since the cruise. I can't wait to spend my first holidays in Arizona.

Wish you all the best & safe travels!!

Blizzard Walk



Chance and I decided to take a walk tonight during our first Chicago blizzard of the season!I think it took us longer to gear up than to actually walk around the neighborhood!

Mari-Michelle's Wedding

I was able to go to Utah for a good friend's wedding. It was incredible, she was beautiful and of course, as always I wish I got more pictures. I didn't even get one of M & I. I couldn't be more happy for them. They are a beautiful, amazing couple and I'm so happy I was invited to be there for their special day. Here are some photos (they are soo out of order!)
