just what i needed

We had a nice, relaxing weekend around here. Probably not blog worthy, at all...but, it was just what the doctor ordered. Quite literally :)

Saturday we did some shopping. My best purchase, found for a steal at Home Goods (LOVE that place!)


Such a great little book! Saturday night my in-laws came over for dinner and we played Scrabble. I think this is a sign we're getting old. Scrabble on a Saturday night.

Sunday we spent cooking & baking & trying to keep warm.

our little family
A few notes: I'm seriously longing to have my tan back. Doesn't it feel like summer was just yesterday? Yes I'm wearing my hat while baking...and yes, J and I both have this hat. I had just taken the dog out and it was freeezing! And the apron I'm wearing? My husband made that for me! It could seriously rival the ones you see in Anthropologie. I will have to do a post on all the things he has made me some day. I was blessed beyond measure with a guy who loves to cook, and sew. He's awesome.

I remember looking at the Domino book awhile ago, but not really appreciating it! Maybe I should pick it up again! :)

Looks like you had fun baking! Cute puppy!!

I have a picture of me and the big guy on my desk. We are both really tan in it and I too want my tan back.

The fact that your big guy MADE that apron makes me love him. I don't even know him personally. That is SO sweet and cute.

Stay warm. Only 4 more months to go…um…that sounds bad. Sorry. Just stay warm :)

I've been wanting the book forever! I've had countless library late fees ...all because of that fabulous little book. I just can't hand over 40 bucks for it! So jealous you got a steal!
