Barely Breathing


As today is my last day off work for the holidays, I thought I'd finally list my gift bags in the etsy shop. Now that Christmas is over, it's time to start thinking about Valentine's!

Gift Bags

And, I don't care that Christmas is over, I'm keeping up my lights. :)

Deck the Halls

Christmas came early this year for me and Corban; we spent the last two days in Sherman with family and are already back home in Dallas snuggling with our babykitties and looking forward to spending the 25th together, just the four of us. It was so lovely to hang out with our families without any distractions or pressing schedules. Plus, gifts are always fun to give as well as receive (my hand-painted gift bags were a great success!); we were able to gift our loved ones with some pretty handy items, and we were given tons of awesome kitchen stuff from both families that we are super stoked to use. :)

Oh, and someone gave me a little blue box for Christmas. What could be sweeter?

I got a little blue box for Christmas :)

In case you haven't heard it enough, Merry Christmas! And, my best wishes for safety, health, merriment, and love. :)

Starlight

I had the time of my life last night when Corban and I made it onto the KISS CAM at the Star's game!! Every game we go to, we both secretly really want to get onto the kiss cam, so we were beyond stoked when we got to make out on camera last night. I'm still smiling about it. :)

Plus, our seats were beyond awesome.

I haven't been happy with my site designs for some time now, so I gave my blog a little makeover today! I hope everyone likes it. :) I'm planning to revamp the etsy site soon, so stay tuned.

The past few weeks I have been workingworkingworking on hand-painted gift bags for all the lovely Christmas presents we're giving to family and friends. I love the personal touch that unique, wrapping gives to the ceremony of gift-giving, which is one of my favorite things, so this has been a really fun process for me. There were some leftover bags, so I've decided to put them up in the shop later this week. I even got excited and busted out a few Valentines bags! I'll post when they're up, but for now here's a preview.

Watching LA Ink like gangbusters today + feeling impulsive lately = I really want a fun new tattoo! Maybe a sweet little heart? I lurrrrrve Katie's adorable elbow hearts.

Maybe as a fun way to start the new year. :)
