BELIEVE {prayer}

I am a follower of Jesus Christ. I believe God has a plan for me & today I feel extremely grateful for this knowledge. I am continually comforted when I pray for strength, guidance, knowledge & peace in my life on a daily basis. Today I am happy because I know God loves me & although life is tough & I am enduring so many tough things at this time I know that in the future it will all be okay & so will I with our Heavenly Father at my side.

Feeling Blue

I had a horrible no good rotten day. I am now trying to forget about the day & daydream of being here relaxing with out a care in the world.  There's always tomorrow...

Cleaning Frenzy

Something about the start of a new year gets my mind & body in cleaning & organizing mode. I have been cleaning out closets & cabinets and it feels great! In general I love to organize and rearrange my clothing & accessories... I can now see all my shoes {which makes it so much easier to get ready when I am rushing out the door at the crack of dawn}. How do you store all your accessories? Is your closet arranged by color? Do you keep your shoes in boxes or out on display? I always like to check out closets when I visit someones home {I know I am strange}.

Oranges & Orchards

I have LOVED & enjoyed every moment of Christmas break {this year I surprisingly took time off of work} I spent my time with family, baked, finished up shopping, organized, wrapped, ate and most importantly RELAXED.  I hope you have all had a wonderful Christmas & a great celebration to ring in the New Year. May 2011 bring us much happiness.

Love me some swimwear {Mikoh}

It's a new year, time for change & fresh beginnings. I have mixed emotions about all that 2011 has to offer me &  I am anxious, curious, and excited about the many adventures ahead. I am working out my resolutions & goals in my head {its draining me already} I want to do things for myself in 2011 {like RELAX but this is very very very difficult for me} so my mind is confused on how I can work on things like this. Enough of my ramblings!

With retailers already clearing out the racks of sweaters, scarves & boots and making way for swimwear & all things bright for spring I thought I would share with you these beautiful suits by Mikoh Swimwear. I WANT them all! The fit looks amazing, I must order a couple immediately {in hopes the cute hip hugging suits will motivate my booty to get in shape!}. I am already dreaming up my next romantic tropical getaway.

Happy NEW YEAR

I hope you are all ringing in the NEW YEAR in a fun way surrounded by those you love. As for me I have lots of organizing & cleaning ahead of me. I will be cleaning out my closet & organizing our man room {which will someday be our nursery}. And of course celebrating with friends. Happy New Year!

Splendid Littles x Target

I was so excited when I found this email in my inbox! Looks like I will be heading over to Target today to scope it out. I love the silky soft fabrics used on all Splendid products {I wonder if the Target collection will be the same?}.
