The Help...

This book was SO GOOD! Can't wait to see the movie!

Gloria...

I introduced you to my new car, Gloria, last week & a lot has changed since then. I was so excited to have her in my life at first, but now I realize she brings nothings but trouble. I got into my very first accident last week. My cracked bumper will cost around $900. Thank the Lord for insurance (I still have to pay $250 for the bumper & a lot for 6 months of insurance though). As if an accident wasn't bad enough, Gloria got a flat tire today. She ran over a nail. I think I liked life better pre-Gloria. I was meant to car pool :)

Kate + Leo

Did you hear Kate & Leo were voted most romantic couple? They beat out Scarlett & Rhett. I do love them.

Spring Wish List: Nordies Edition...

What's Up...

2011 has been a year of pretty big changes so far. February we moved into our new house, March I got a job, & April I got my first car! I am so excited about everything that has been going on in my life, but it's a bit overwhelming at times. Which would of course be the reason it's been so long since I've updated this blog!

My job is going really well though! I really like it.

And this car is such a blessing. I've been perfectly content sharing a car with my parents, but we've been waiting for a really good deal on a car. To make a long story short - this car was a good deal solely because of human error. It's nearly brand new (only 6,000 miles on it) & we got it for the price of used car. It is lacking a name though... Every good car must be named.

My True Style...

I am in the process of decorating my new office. They are painting it tomorrow, so I'm starting to really gather things & try a find a focus. I love dreaming & designing rooms in my head, and I had some basic ideas in my head when we hit World Market tonight... I'm working in the youth building, so I wanted it to be bright & fun, but still reflect a professional office setting. Then I realized that I couldn't get away from my own style when I found this gem...

Yes, I bought a pillow with a hot pink parrot on it. Does it say professional? Absolutely not. But it does scream "Megan"!!! (after all, my favorite ride at Disneyland is the Tiki Room!) After brief consideration, I decided it was much more important to create an environment that I loved than one that I thought looked "professional" (trust me my coworkers don't care). I don't know how everything else will turn out yet, but I know I will at least LOVE this pillow.

Pretty Makeup...

Love the pink lips & turquoise necklace. Such a pretty combo!

Again I love the pink lips. I'm not generally one for bold lips (I hate red lips), but I may need to try hot pink! Especially for summer...

I love the tiny glint of metallic eye liner. Really pops.

These girls make me want to put a bit more effort into my daily routine...

Colorful Cakes...

How fun are these cakes? I don't know exactly why, but I think the bright colors make them look even more delicious. It must be the unexpected heat wave we had, but I am loving all things bright right now!

This is the first Friday in a LONG time that I actually care about. I finished my first official week back at work. I have to say it was really great. Sleeping in tomorrow with be ever greater though :)
