I could watch over and over...

Brrr..

When you wake up in the morning and you are all snuggled into your blankets but you feel a slight chill on your face, so you hurry and run to your socks to warm your feet up, and then find the warmest over sized hoodie you have and slip it on. And then you hurry down stairs open the door and let Kaylee out to go potty, but in the meantime rush over to the thermostat to see what the temperature is. It flashes 57 degrees so you wait to see what it is inside your home, but someone starts talking in your head saying "Brittany, your house thermostat doesn't tell you what the temperature is outside!". It is then you realize 'Oh my, it really is 57 degrees inside my house!!!!!'. Is it then time to turn the heater on for the year??

Harvest, gotta love it!!

Mmmm, just picked these this morning!!

Love Love Love him!!!

Look what I got in the mail today!! I am so excited!!! Thanks Todd, I love you bunches!!

Why is it that women get super excited about new jewelry? I am not a huge jewelry wearer, but I must admit...I got awfully giddy when I opened my blue box!!

Goodbye!!

I sold my baby today, my 2005 Honda Accord is no longer a part of the family. Todd and I took her in, and sold her off. She was a great car, a fun car, a loving car, and a great friend. She could listen like nobody's business, and was always there!! I thought she would be in my life forever, but what can you do? We had no need for three cars. Even in her moving on, she has brought Todd and I joy. Thanks to my sweet pea, we can now pay off the truck and school loans!! Thanks Miss Honda, you were great!

A look into my life...

This is why I love my husband. I was reading Miss Mia's recent post and came across this necklace that I LOVE!!!

I emailed the link to my loving husband, hinting that I thought it was pretty. I let him know it was pink, which I never wear, and since he loves me in pink I would really be compromising with him, but I am willing to take the hit. As long as he is happy, I too can be happy.

This is the email I get back from him...

Brittany,
You do look very pretty in pink, but I want to protect you from harm. Please read the scriptures below...

2 Nephi 13: 16-24

16 Moreover, the Lord saith: Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched-forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet—

17 Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will discover their secret parts.

18 In that day the Lord will take away the bravery of their tinkling ornaments, and cauls, and round tires like the moon;

19 The chains and the bracelets, and the mufflers;

20 The bonnets, and the ornaments of the legs, and the headbands, and the tablets, and the ear-rings;

21 The rings, and nose jewels;

22 The changeable suits of apparel, and the mantles, and the wimples, and the crisping-pins;

23 The glasses, and the fine linen, and hoods, and the veils.

24 And it shall come to pass, instead of sweet smell there shall be stink; and instead of a girdle, a rent; and instead of well set hair, baldness; and instead of a stomacher, a girding of sackcloth; burning instead of beauty.

I want to keep you safe because I love you, although your pink necklace is very pretty, I would rather have you smell sweet. Love you!!

Do you ladies see what I live with? Although he thought he was smart and outwitting me, I quickly regrouped. I searched the web and found these 3 pictures.



I let him know I found the perfect solution. Apparently, pearl necklaces were ok by Sister Hinckley, Siter Beck (General Relief Society President), and Sister Lant (General Primary President). Therefore here is a link to a strand of pearls. Notice the price difference? I have yet to hear back from him..we will have to see what he decides.

Im excited!!

I have done it! I made pickles this afternoon and I am super excited. As most of you know, pickles are hands down my absolute favorite treat. I can eat a jar of pickles in hours with no problem. My friend down the street had a few too many pickling cucumbers and thought I might enjoy. So, I picked up the cucumbers and set off to make pickles. It was surprisingly easy and fast. I have to let them sit and stew for 4-6 weeks before eating, but I will let you know how they turn out!!
