Snow Day
My fabulous winter just got really white and slushy all in the same day. Hoping it doesn’t stick around. Naaman and Dallin had fun while it lasted. And Dallin’s baby brother decided to share his birthday with Olivia.

Pretty Amazing!
I saw this before & after on A New Found Treasure blog via Emily Clark’s blog. It was very professional looking…..major $$$ transformation……the kind you just dream about. Pretty ridiculous. Here is the before……
And here is the after……..
Crazy…..I know!

Best Winter Ever!
Tomorrow it’s suppose to be 46 degrees outside. That’s so crazy for January in Boise. I’m loving it, even though the moisture is always needed. January is usually so cold and dreary that its depressing. But this I like. I love pictures of snow covered trees…..they always look so peaceful to me…….but I like them in the mountains no the front yard:)

Cool Lights
Saw this picture on Pinterest and loved how the lights looked. They reminded me of these West Elm lights……..I wonder if you can do the same thing as far as swinging/ hooking the lights. Creates a cool effect, especially if you did a few of them.

A New Year
I was reading The Inspired Room blog and loved her little statement about her new light.
“In February I got my new dining room lantern and that has been one of my favorite improvements. I look at it every day and still LOVE IT!”
I think that is when real design is achieved….at least for me anyways. That’s one of my design goals for the new year. I tend to compromise a lot because I’m a “it’s a good deal” driven person.
So it’s definitely a challenge but I’m going to try and figure out what I really like…..and look for the good deals there. We’ll see:)

What I Read
Josh gave me the next book in the Infernal Devices series, Clockwork Prince. It was a very good Christmas present for me……..he did read it before I got it though:). Let me first say how much I loved Clockwork Angel, the first in the series.
But this next book was fantastic! It has all the elements of a good story…..mystery, romance, betrayal, adventure…..without all the cheese. And I love the time period that it’s set in……how they dress, court……love it! I was so sad when it ended:(……hate it when a good book ends and the next one won’t be out for another year…. Ugh!
Read more about this book and the author here.
