Dreaming of sunshine

It has snowed so much this week. 
I am sick of it.
I have pretty much been home bound the whole weekend.
& let me just say that right now my favorite things are, my heated blanket and this:
I was so excited when I found it at sunflower market yesterday. 
I have been searching high and low for some gluten free pre flavoured oatmeal packs. 
Isn't it funny how when the weather is cold outside, all you want to do is cuddle up and eat something warm? 
(at least I do)
Do you think that it's weird I eat bananas in my oatmeal? 
Also, people always look at me weird for eating ketchup on eggs.. I thought it was normal.
***
IN EXCITING NEWS.. THIS BOY:
GOT THE JOB!!
I am so proud of him, and it is such a relief to know we are going to have two incomes again!
This job is also higher paying than his last one and it's not a graveyard!
Win, win!
***
All of this cold weather has got me longing for warmer weather. My dogs have apparently also decided that it is already summer. Case in point, the other day I came in to the living room to find this:
Sammie in her bikini. That girl cracks me up sometimes! 
Don't mind her coocoo eyes, picnik decided that this was a good alternative to red eye. 
I'm not completely convinced.
♥♥♥
Last summer Aaron and I were living in a 3rd story apartment and the sun was always coming through our windows. The dogs discovered sitting in the windowsill to get warm. 
I really miss that apartment ♥
I could just eat her up!
Speaking of missing things, I really miss when Oscar was so small I could carry him in my hand.
Can you believe my little guy was ever this small!?
This was taken the day after I got him. 
I got no sleep that night due to his crying.
So I skipped work and went to SLC to show him off.
Oscar in our old apartment. 
he used to take all of his toys and line them up next to each other just out of my reach, what a little stinker.
***
I cannot wait to go on photo adventures, discover new parks to take the dogs, road tripping, shaved ice, hiking, tan lines, sun glasses and bike riding.
I hope you have a great weekend!
P.S. I hit 100 Followers this weekend
What does that mean you ask??
A GIVEAWAY! 
Which will be announced next week! 
OH and we ordered a new couch today!
 SO EXCITED!

We've had raining weather her today and I was pretty much a couch potato all day! It feels great to be able to relax, I just feel bad for my puppies since they are stuck inside all day.

I'm really getting sick of winter too. We don't have snow here anymore, but the lack of light is really depressing, especially when you just bought a new lens and can't use it... ;)

Banana and oatmeal is such a great combo, I love it too, although I cook it with the oatmeal in tiny little pieces.

Such good news about the job!

Oscar was(and still is of course) so frickin' cute!

Amber said...

I eat fruit in my oatmeal too! Blueberries, strawberries, and bananas! yummm.

Your little baby puppy, aw, so leetle! I love looking at my pups baby pics too.

And that couch is amazing! yay!

Gale said...

hey love! bananas in oatmeal is YUM. and i get weird looks too for ketchup in eggs. it is normal isn't it? congrats to aaron! that's awesome and it didn't take long at all!

also, i can't wait for you to start biking in the spring either! we can talk bikes then hehe. that's cool what your older sis used to do with revamping secondhand bikes. i used to do a bit of that and sell it at grace and my old vintage shop! it was so much fun. wouldn't it be fun to go on biking adventures together? i think so. sigh...

well have a great day dear!
