Fresh Squeezed {juice}

{image via tastymakeshappy}

Since changing my diet last year I have become obsessed with juicing fruits & veggies. When I am not rushing out the door to get to the office I try new juice concoctions. Today I made orange & nectarine juice. It is so simple {although cutting & peeling the fruit takes time} just choose the fruit or veggies you want and put them in the juicer... minutes later a fresh cup of juice awaits. I do not have a favorite drink... I like to try lots of different combinations. Do you have any favorites? Please share!

I have worn nerdy librarian glasses since high school {and honestly I'm okay with it}. It is time for yealry eye appointment & perfect timing since Warby Parker just released some new styles. They have some great options & the prices are even better!  If you are worried about ordering over the internet... do not worry they offer a free trial try on just sign up on their site.

peace & beauty

Everything about this photo is peaceful. Daydreaming of being here being one with nature & all of Gods beauty. Someday I want horses {& lots of animals on lots of land}.

Stopped by F21 over the weekend {had some gift cards from Christmas} & I spotted the newest collaboration. The pieces are colorful & funky but some are not very practical.  The bootie shorts looked comfy and could be cute to wear to the beach as a cover up {haha funny to call them a cover up when they do not cover much} and the bra tube top was super cute! Although I did not purchase any of the collab items I found some other cute pieces through the store {their stuff has gotten much cuter & wearable}. I was so excited to see they offer size XS in many items! It still runs a bit big on me but at least they are trying.

Day of LOVE {Valentine's Day}

I never knew how wonderful LOVE felt until I fell completely in LOVE with Bu{my hubby}. Being with his has completely changed my life & each day I find myself loving him even more. With out him my life would be incomplete {and oh so boring!}.

Thor has opened my heart in a way I never knew was possible. I have a new found LOVE for animals & I am continually amazed at how smart dogs are. Having Thor has given me a glimpse of what a parents LOVE is for their child. I can never thank C & L enough for giving us Thor, he truly has been a tremendous comfort to me in the many challenges & struggles I have endured since he became a part of the family. I LOVE that he is always excited to see me & follows me everywhere & totally wants to be involved in whatever I am doing.

With out LOVE I would not be who I am today.

Mixed emotions {scared of the unknown}

I do not recall every feeling this way {so many mixed emotions at once} about my future. I am extremely grateful for my belief & faith in God and knowing my prayers are answered. As I have grown older I have truly come to realize how much I have been blessed. I feel so fortunate to have worked with & for successful people & companies and could not be more appreciative than ever for all the great opportunities I have had in my career & for all the individuals who gave me a chance to prove myself. I am anxious and oh so curious what the future holds for me but at the same time I am very excited!

{why the image of mavericks? I am terrified of waves... yes I know, odd coming from a beach loving surfer boy lover  sun bather ex surf industry employee.  the older I have gotten the more scared I have become of the mysterious ocean currents & waves} I wonder what goes through your mind when you are dropping in on a 20 foot wave???

Are you as curious as I am about the new wedding collection from the UO family? Ever since learning they were developing a wedding line I was anxious to see it! I would love to touch & see the fabrics & little details up close in person... starting this month the collection will only be available online.  I wonder where the first brick & mortor store will be? {I am still holding out for my boss to send me to their navy yard... everytime he goes to meet with the buyers I want to jump in his suitcase} I am dying to visit their campus!
