as if you didn't know...

so let's pretend for a minute that you have no idea i'm OBSESSED with the pioneer woman. well, big surprise...I'M COMPLETELY OBSESSED. her website is my homepage, i constantly enter her giveaways (only to constantly lose), i make her recipes a whole lot, and most importantly...i can't wait until her book is released! i have read all of it that has been posted on her website, but an actual book is coming out soon! February 1 to be exact. It has so much more than what she's written online, and I am sooooo excited!! even more exciting than the book release is the book tour, and guess what? she's coming to denver! February 12 - what a perfect Valentine's gift! our dear friends hunter and lindsay will be here visiting, but i am sooooo going to meet PW. i'll keep you posted as the day grows near...i know you're on the edge of your seat now too :) in case you need to check on when she's coming to a location near you, here's the link...book tour a


one final thing...it's snowing again here in the springs! here's a small peak of what we've enjoyed today...

snow on the house!

wishing you all the best from our snow-covered home :)

Happy New Year!!

so it's been a little while since I've posted...and i have some BIG news...WE'RE IN COLORADO!! finally. i know, i think a lot of people began to lose faith in me, but we really are here now! we had a fabulous thanksgiving with family back in memphis, then we left the old ghetto for the mountains!


so there has been so much happening since i last posted, obviously. here's a VERY quick recap of everything.

i have to give a shout out to sweet Megan, who blogs at brewers in budapest, and right after Thanksgiving, the she and her husband had their first baby...I'm worried our kids won't live up to this cuteness...


we're sooooo happy for y'all, and can't wait to teach baby G how to ski!! 


right after Thanksgiving we moved...YAY!...


our moving truck...packed to the brim! 





my feathered driving friend...






ready to leave!!






sorry for the faces...we'd been a little teary saying goodbye to everyone!





we made it!!

so we got here, and quickly left 10 days later to go to key west to spend Christmas with my mom and sisters. sooooo fun...


a little Christmas picture for you.

i think that pretty much sums up the last few months, whether that's good or bad, but that's it! i'll try to be better, i promise. maybe that should be my resolution...along with making many many more of PW's cinnamon rolls. i made them at Christmas, and they were AMAZING...


i may have gone way overboard with the icing, but hey, it was totally worth it!

here's the link, in case you want to make them yourself...best things ever. well, that's about all i have for now. 

oh wait...pictures of the house! they're in a link because there are a lot of them!!

our house - enjoy!
