A Very She & Him Christmas

I love Zooey Deschanel as it is, but this album makes me love her even more.

I have listened to it every day since Thanksgiving... ok so maybe I started a few days before, but who's counting?? I love Christmas music! I never seem to get into the holiday spirit enough, but this year I already am.

So excited to decorate our loft this week!

Happy Holidays!!!

Can't believe they're already here. Wow, this year has flown by.

Thanksgiving Fun

This Thanksgiving we went to Birmingham, AL to celebrate with my mom's parents and her brothers family. It was such a nice day all around. From the weather, to the food, to the football, and especially that little fact that Casen slept for close to 4 hours, so I was able to eat my whole plate in one sitting! Until I got up and got another plate! Haha.

After we had all let our food digest, we went and ran around at a high school right down the street from their house.

So strong!

Relaxing Weekend Recap

Last weekend was so relaxing. I mean REALLY. Saturday we attempted to garage sale hop, but it became quite clear that garage sale season is truly winding down. *sad face* We literally got NOTHING at the 3 we stopped by. Afterwards we came home and I napped hard. I slept for at least 3 hours. It was so nice! Casen actually stayed asleep that whole time too! Something must have been in the air to make us so sleepy. 

Sunday was just as pleasant. We went to Big Spring Park in downtown Huntsville and played with ducks and fishies and the occasional squirrel.

Playing in the leaves. 

Getting sleepy.

Observing the ducks and fishies.

Boys and their sticks....

He was very concentrated on his "fishing".

Daddy helped Casen feed the fishies.

They ate right out of your hand!

Naptime was long overdue!

Bits and Pieces: Casen's Room

So of course I haven't blogged in a really long time. I have come to learn that I am horrible at developing habits and maintaining them. I am so scatter brained and random that I have never been able to fall into routine. Don't get me wrong, I am the queen of planners and to do lists. That is partially why I want to keep a blog, to add some repetition to my days. Who knows, it could make all the difference in my schedule!? That being said, I am going to try to get myself in the habit of posting small bite size pieces rather than the full extent of what I want to post on my blog in the future. I'll get there eventually! :) 

Here is a little snippet of Casen's room that is by far my favorite in our little loft.

Random odds and ends that we either had already, bought at the thrift store, or were given.

His favorite sleep buddy, Napoleon Dynamite. Haha.

Wizard of Oz stacking dolls, love these!!
