::Monday Monday::

Hey y'all! 

Once again, I'm sorry for being so absent!

As you know, Mattie left last week to Yuma & as the "disgusting" {as Kels calls us} couple we are, we both were missing each other!

I went to visit him {yes after only 5 days} & we had a blast!
-Yuma-

Dinner date!

Hey Handsome!

Making faces at each other to see who laughed first... I lost!

Saying "Bye Bye" to my love {feel a lot like when we were dating}.

Okay! Okay! This song is about a break up...
But its so sweet and reminds me of Mattie!
You should really give it a listen!

-Sunday Fun-day-

 

 

 

Penny loves to play!

Penny decide that we both needed snuggles! I loved it!

-A bit Under the Weather-

This morning Rooney was a bit under the weather.
Poor baby Toons!
I am happy to report he is feeling better!

I hope your weekend was a fabulous as mine!  

::WOW Wednesday::

Hey y'all!

Great News!

I am officially a HANDBAG DESIGNER!

Well as of April 8, 2013 I will be!

 Only took 3 years but I am finally going to be putting my degree to good use.

This quote is definitely something that I had to keep telling myself through the process of finding this job.

If you know me at all, you know I have a tendency to stress{yes me}. So I finally started living by 

"Everything works out exactly the way it's supposed to"

{I stress a lot less}.

 I am so excited for this job, but sad to be leaving my peeps at my current job.

Don't worry loves:

Also don't take this the wrong way but:

I finally did it! So happy!!!!

 I hope you loved all of these GIFs!

::Monday {no} Fun Day::

Hey y'all!

After such an AMAZING three day weekend, it is rough to go back to work.

Also, Mattie is leaving tomorrow for 6 weeks {boo hoo}. 

Of course the only way to make this Monday better is to make it a FUN day!

If you didn't know, Mattie & I took Friday off work {& LOVED it}. 

Here is what we did!

 Turned Rooney into a butterfly!

Went shopping and fell asleep!

Ran around like MANIACS at the bark park!

Embraced our inner Irish {well my inner Irish}!

Danced our butts off!
