Spout...... Just loving the word! Its even better than Spring.

I am a complete addict. My shoe rehab back fired and I bought these two new pairs from Charlotte Russe for Spring (if it ever comes)

I love a nice pair of wedges. Classic and so cute a great stand by to pump up any cute spring or summer outfit.


I love these ivory colored gladiator sandals. They are so masculine and structured. I can't wait to wear them with a pair of cute Capri's and a super feminine flowy top. AHHH I love shoes. Sorry Burt. Maybe shoe rehab will work next time.






I am praying for better weather this week than last! Still having snow after it was all gone at one point in time is simply depressing! It's April, Mother nature! I know you are smart but all of this extra snow and wetness is not OK with me and my plans to be outside almost all the time with my girls. Snow is still here but we attempted the park. Maybe we will try again tomorrow.


Burtski went to Vegas this weekend for a Boys trip. Had a blast and didn't loose to much money which makes me happy.I think every time we go we pick up new tips on how to save when you are on the very expensive strip. Guess I will be ready to be super thrifty for when I go down in June with Ms. Candy. (So excited!)


While he was gone we had a very eventful weekend. On Friday I had an appointment down at Hill AFB so I made the Journey..... Afraid that it was going to be way snowy. While I was at my appointment the girls hung out with Grandma Great, Playing Princesses and Coloring and whatever else they want to do. You know anything goes for fun at Grandma greats! When I came back went to lunch at the Kowloon (Best Chinese food in the valley) for Aunt Pam's Birthday. We all had a great time. We spent the night in Salt Lake (weather) and came home on Saturday (work)
Here is an example of whatever goes at Grandma greats, A pitched tent and whatever the girls want in her front room at the drop of a hat.... she looks pretty comfy! and like a ton of fun!
I Guess I am no better, we played camping trip in the front room while we waited fro daddy to get home on Sunday night. My brother made a comment that we used the same orange blanket when we were kids to build our forts and tents. I guess a good thing is a good things and lasts generations.
On Sunday, I was exhausted from work and getting my butt up at 6 with the Girlys. I figured it would be a perfect craft day. On our way home from Salt Lake we stopped at Joann's because I was wanting to make some throw pillows for my front room couches. I have been looking at my house recently and feel the need to add color and some personality. Its feeling a little Blah! So I found 3 different fabric remnants and got them all for around $15. I also went and looked at pillow forms and was blown away at how expensive they were.... I was like seriously one 12" pillow form for 8 bucks, NO WAY. So I just bought the big bag of poly fill for $5. I hurried my butt home to brainstorm on what i wanted to do with my new fabric and what kind of pillows I wanted to make.


I definitely was pleased with what I came up with! I am so glad I didn't buy pillow forms either because that didn't limit my creativity. I could make whatever shapes or sized I wanted. I love the fabric I found too. It definitely makes my couches feel softer and more organic. My husband doesn't understand why we need throw pillows on couches or on our bed. I guess its a design thing. A Lil ribbon, fabric, poly fill, and an hour goes a long way, Don't you think?Me and Gracie had a fun planting day about 2 weeks ago and we have some sprouts. I just love the word sprout. So energizing. I cant wait for all of these herbs to start growing and start smelling delicious and I can make home-made spa treatments. My dwarf lemon tree also came in the mail. Isn't she so cute. Gracie has named her daisy!
Who Loves spring- Fashion, color, plants, decor. Love it all!
