this blog post by Danielle @ Sometimes Sweet. short version? stop comparing yourself to other bloggers in a competitive sort of way. blogging is not a contest, and there is no winner. blog for YOU and support others who do so. the end.

this tattoo that I discovered here. it is the perfect representation of my heritage, tying together my family's devotion to the USCG and my American Indian roots. 


if I were brave enough to tattoo my other rib cage, I would definitely get it there, but I'm thinking the side of my leg would be a good spot too.

two of my Nestie friends gave birth to baby boys this week! 
congratulations to Adriane & Laura (and their husbands, too)! 
and welcome to the world Darian & Noah!

while this isn't a new discovery on my part, I'm just now actually getting around using Vintage Printable for the first time. I'm finally putting together our gallery wall in the entryway and headed over to VP for free artwork to hang up.

I must say, I am impressed with the collection of art they have there! this little guy will definitely be making his way to my wall.

Google+I don't know if it'll actually be the next big social networking site, but it's getting tons of great reviews from techie gurus out there (according to my nerdy husband, at least), so I figured, "hey, why not?" still trying to figure everything out on there, but it's kind of confusing at the moment. then again, all sites are generally confusing at first, so it shouldn't take long to get the hang of things.

this anchor pillow would look great on my bed. but I think I need to take a break from pillow shopping. I decided to go ahead and buy ALL the pillows I talked about this post. eeks.

speaking of baby boys, I am totally making this blue punch for Kaley's baby sprinkle and I can't wait to see how it turns out. I've got the menu all figured out... now I just need to get my ass in gear and start shopping/DIYing decorations!

I got an email this morning informing me that our new living room curtains have shipped. because they're a little more expensive at $70 a pop, we've decided to buy two panels at a time every couple weeks. so yes, we will have mis-matched curtains possibly, but they are chevron and they are amazing. 
AND I AM SO EXCITED.
