A Notecard Exchange

I had the pleasure of participating in a notecard exchange with some fellow bloggers hosted by Ashley at A Hasty Life. Ashley is really great about connecting folks in the blogosphere and I made some new bloggy friends in the process!

The ladies that were in my group were:

Sarah from The Quirky Designer

Leann from Join the Gossip

Lindsay from La Georgia Paperie

And here are the beautiful cards I received.

Thank you ladies! So nice to meet you!

Sonic used to be my favorite hedgehog

That was, until I saw these!

Unfortunately, they are a kit and I don't know how to kint. Sigh. It's never too late to learn, right?!

I heart you

Since C is deployed this year for Valentine's Day, I think he felt bad. He told me to buy whatever I wanted and that can be my gift. Wrong answer mister. I want a pony! However, as I browsed the paper for a pony (I haven't a clue where else to acquire one) I realized I couldn't just cut a check for $10,000. So that option is out the window. Damn.

On to plan B. These beauties have been making my heart go pitter pat all day....

These are merlot scented. I like anything that has to do with wine. I want these.

I could eat everything on this site. I'm not even kidding you. I wish the computer screen was scratch and sniff. :( By the way, there is a Eversave deal going on. Score! Hurry, they are dreamy. I may or may not have bought a few. (I get hungry...)

And lastly, I want a pair of these. Pink is my favorite color...

So my question to you folks is, is it greedy to get one of everything? I guess anything is better than me getting a pony, right?

Just to see you smile....

I've been in a funk the past few days and didn't want to write a sad post, so instead, I'm going to write about what makes me happy. Here ya go!

Watch out, he will eat you. If he can get up....

A little snow never hurt anyone!

I have an amazing friend named Jenni. She was the photographer at my wedding and just rocks. I mean that. I'm not just saying that because she's a friend. She really truly is awesome.

Well, some of you know, C and I got married on the beach. It was warm and sunny and just the way I like it. However, we were there, so why not trash the dress, right? Right! To back track a little, we are so happy with the date we set as it has special meaning. C and I met on December 14. He proposed on December 14. If you add 12 and 14 together you get 26. The only 26 that fell on a Saturday in the summer was June. So there ya go!

Since December and the cold and the snow has a special place in our hearts, I had really wanted to do a TTD session in the snow. I just thought how perfect for December, right?! Granted we did it in January, but that's a minor technicality lol.

I need to put some things out there first. One, apparently I failed to mention to C that we were doing this in the snow. One would think that, since he saw me grab my snow boots and I told him to bring gloves, he would have understood, but oh well. B. I had another dress. The dress I am wearing for these shots was a dress I had received for free and loved, just not as much as the one I ended up going with. I wanted to take photos in this dress for one main reason. I want to pass it along. Anyone want a free dress (I'm dry cleaning it, promise!). Seriously. It's a size 6 (I think, I wear a 6 and it fits me, if you email me I can give you exact measurements of the dress). It's strapless and has crinolin (I haven't the foggiest how to spell that) underneath and comes about mid shin on me. It's goregous. So it's yours if you want it!

Ok, so backing up a little, remember how C didn't realize it was TTD photos in the snow? Well, he wore what wore to our beach wedding. Yea, he was chilly. Men should listen to their wives, I'm just saying....

Miscellany Monday

1. We had a "it's not goodbye it's see you later" party for my husband this past weekend. He leaves for 7 months and it's starting to hit me. I kept saying it was fine and I wasn't upset, but am I. So don't tell him, ok?!

2. We had a blast doing a trash the dress in the snow yesterday. My aim sucks and I hit C in the area that you aren't supposed to hit in with a huge snowball. As punishment, I think I broke my shoulder. Sheesh!

I can't wait to see the photos! I'll set the scene...

Me, C, and a snowman named Bob. Love it!

3. My kitten got neutered on Friday. He had a rough weekend.

Oh Amazon, how I love you...

This week I've been tickled by the Amazon bug. Recently I got a LivingSocial email to buy a $20 Amazon.com giftcard for $10. I was hooked. I originally thought I was going to use my $20 for some books for my Kindle, but that changed when I found the items below.

Unfortunately it does not come with the cat in the picture, but it looks like a blast. My kitten needs it. (And my couch does too so he will stop scratching it).

What else do I want?

THIS!

I'm a total cheater. I bought this as a white elephant gift for a Christmas party I went to. It didn't get picked so I grabbed it woohoo! However, the person after me had their gift stolen, so they took mine. Damn it, I was so close. Maybe now is my chance to get it.

And finally, since my hubby is a totally carnivore, I think this is only appropriate to get for him. Mind you, he said no way, but still I think it's fascinating.

I could spend all day on there. This can't be good. Anyone care to share what they would purchase from Amazon? I want one of everything please!
