Stylish Home Types


I took the quiz at stylishhome.com to see what type of home/lifestyle I most resemble...I totally agree with the findings...I have always lusted after a house just like the one above (but painted white with black shutters and a white picket fence!) :)

What style type are you??

Results: You most resemble a "Colonial Renaissance".




Details...

Center hall, formal dining, stately living. Your kitchen is your prize. Decorative, finished… elegant. The subtle refinements of your sleeping nest reflect a desire for order. As with a technical dance, your style has it's own vocabulary. Thematic table accessories set the mood. A lithe and agreeable cab - no meal required. Like all good times start with a divine entry! Meeting all the requirements for a stylish home, commencement begins. .

Doritos Pug

How ADORABLE is this pug commercial that might be in with the other Super Bowl commercials?!  It is beyond funny and so true to my pug's eating habits...He probably would try to knock that door down for a tasty Dorito!! :)

TGIF!!

What I'm Loving Wednesday

Oh goodness....What I'm loving Wednesday...


  • The fact that I messed up the linky thing on the super cute blog over at "This Kind of Love", but that's the kind of day/week I'm having, so I'm going to love and embrace it. :)
  • The fact that week 1 of my student teaching is almost done and we have another long weekend ahead...I REALLY need it!
  • My sweet, wonderful, and incredibly supportive husband...I literally couldn't make it without him!!
  • Our sweet pug that I get puppy kisses from when I get home everyday :)

There are so many other things that I love, but that's all I can think of tonight...I have had a super stressful week that has been filled with readjustments and new things, and I really hope I can live up to it all and do a great job as a student teacher.  I feel guilty b/c my teacher has sooooo much going on that I feel like a bit of a burden to her...Praying that this changes and that everything falls into place.

Happy Hump Day!!

2010 & 2011

We had such an amazing and blessed Christmas and New Years!  Christmas was spent having the annual party at our house (the hubby just LOVES that and all the planning/work that goes into it - sarcasm here, folks!)...a fantastic and relaxing Christmas breakfast in Gray with the IL's where we got hubby's grandparent's secretary which is now residing in our dining room holding wedding china...Not what most would use it for, but I think it looks neat!  We got monogrammed sheets from Neimans from my parents and I got not one, but TWO North Face fleece from the hubby this year :)


Christmas at parents w/ Porter-Pug and Granddaddy :)

We spent the weekend eating WAY too much (as my docs appt and trip to the scales showed me this morning) and going to see "Little Fockers" with my family...SO funny in my opinion!

New Years was spent at the beach in Destin...I went with thoughts of ohhh...sunshine and prettiness!  NOT...rain and COLD was what we got....but it was still fabulous if I do say so myself...Food was fantastic, shopping was divine, and nightlife was fun as ever!  John Weiner's Village Door is the coolest club and was definitely the place to be on NYE...we watched an hour long fireworks display from the deck and then went home to hit the hay like the old folks our bodies seem to think we are!  My feet ached from those high heels all night long! :)

Now we are back on routine and eating healthy...Organic all the way (Thank you, Fresh Market)...

I have a hair appt for tomorrow to get a cut and color (never had it colored before and am so nervous...my hair is DARK...like almost black!) and then orientation friday, taking the gace Saturday, and on to student teaching on monday!!!!!!! EKKKK...I'm SOOOOOO nervous.  Praying everything goes well and that time flies! :)

I need to make a "supplies" list of beauty essentials to get at Ulta tomorrow, b/c  I fear I may not have time to go by there for a while. 

Happy Hump Day!
