9:15 am and its already almost 60 out!

Yesterday was just the BEST day.  The weather was OUT OF THIS WORLD and I even was out and about in jeans and a tank top.  The sun was shining, it was warm, and it was just...THE BEST DAY!

I was up early and so excited for the warm weather.  I cleaned the entire house, did laundry, and then decided to do some re-decorating.  Our bedroom windows face the East, and so when the sun comes up it gets all warm and sunny and inviting in there.  We still had our "winter colors" on the bed still (reds, browns, and khakis) and our side lamps are brushed bronze with a brown/rust colored shade.  Well, since I have been in a "summery" mood lately I decided I wanted to make our bedroom feel like I was feeling, so I changed out the sheets and pillow cases and even switched out one of the side lamps.




After touching up the house and welcoming in the beautiful sun, I decided to drop off/pick up some applications.  While I was out and about I decided to stop in to Old Navy and take advantage of their t-shirt sale.  BRIGHT COLORS!  From there I went to Menards and... GOT HIRED!!!!!!  PRAISE THE LORD!!!!!  And to top it off they are the BEST hours which allow me to spend lots of time with Beau and even fill in at the family practice clinic I used to work at.  I was just so jazzed the rest of the day that I couldn't WAIT to tell Beau the good news!  He was SO happy for me and we decided to celebrate.  So we drove around and looked at houses and then went to Goodwill.  I was on the hunt for some bright colored sheets since Target takes their clearance items there.  But instead I found curtains.  Yes curtains...I am tempted to go back and get them since they are the EXACT color Beau and I have picked out for when we get pregnant.  A beautiful sage green!  Hmmm...I hope they're still there today.

In other news (and bare with me if I already told you...) but our neighbors have a pocket beagle !  I have wanted one of these adorable little babies ever since I heard of them a little over a year ago.  I think Oliver needs a baby sister.  OH MY WORD she is to die for and I think I have a new best friend.  The other day I went out to get the mail and they were outside with her.  I heard yipping and when I looked over she was sitting there looking at me wagging her tail.  To DIE for...

Well, I am off!  Its another beautiful day here in Wisconsin and I am going to take advantage of it!

I hope you are all having a blessed week and thank you so much for your prayers in regards to employment.  It made all the difference in the world!

In Gods Love,

Kenz
