SANTA BROUGHT ME...PART 1

 2. A pink Clarisonic Mia, hoping it keeps my skin looking fresh & helps fight the aging process!

 3. My favorite scent Chanel Mademoiselle

4. J.Crew flannel in a peach & mint green pattern, for our NYE ranch weekend!

HOLIDAY FUN

Our new silver foiled LOVE print above our bed, also posted previously here 

 http://www.madebygirl.com/

 Our refrigerator covered with Christmas cards from family & friends. More coming every day, I love seeing all of the different cards & the new baby pictures!

 Lucky me...during my office Christmas party we played white elephant and I scored this snow globe with a picture of my co-workers naked butt.

OUR HOLIDAY CARD

Remember my American Apparel post here, well I bought these two black his & her long underwear.  They worked out perfectly for our Christmas card picture & are going to keep us warm for our trip to Chicago in January.  My sister & Mom were our photographers & this is the first picture they took.  It's perfect because they caught Lute yawning. 

  

HAPPY HOLIDAYS!

FROZEN HERBS

Every once in awhile I try something new from Trader Joe's.  Sometimes I find something great to add to my grocery list & other times I might not be so lucky.  These frozen herbs like garlic, basil, and cilantro come packaged in single serving ice cube form. These are great to keep stocked in your freezer & they last much longer than fresh herbs that can often go to waste.

ALL AMERICAN

1. Our first letter from my brother KJ, currently in Navy boot camp in Great Lakes, IL

It was such a great surprise in the mail!   

 2. Basic white v-neck & black leggings from American Apparel 

Always nice to replace your faded black leggings & get a crisp white tee

SCORED

1. Clearance Missoni Tumbler $1.04 at Target

2. Perfect to hold my make-up brushes

3. Clearance Missoni serving dishes $5.98 at Target (these must have been returns because we all know Missoni for Target sold out day one)

4. Method Holiday Soaps & Glade room spray in a very yummy peppermint crush scent

5. My LOVE print arrived!  I actually just ordered her silver one too!  The grapefruit color was a bit to girly for my husband but I'm keeping them both. I LOVE it!  I also think the over sized frame turned out great!
