{Snow Dayz!}

The big blizzard of' '14 was a blast!
Chloe slept through most of it but Mommy and Daddy had tons of fun :)
...Told ya so!

I can't get enough of my little snow bunny!
And then...LO AND BEHOLD...after the snow melted and the Earthquake came (YES...an Earthquake in SC!) we enjoyed a beautiful 70 degree afternoon and look what popped up yesterday!

Bless their hearts...I think they're in for a battle with this totally unpredictable weather!

P.S. I've been working on Chloe's playroom...pics to come soon :)

Love,
Laura

{I'm 31!---and THANKFUL!}

I absolutely LOVE birthdays!

I appreciate each year (and week, day, minute, second...well, you get it)  that I get to live on this beautiful Earth with the beautiful people God created for me to spend my life with!

Today was amazing! I have not returned any texts or facebook messages but to each and every one of you...THANKS from the bottom of my heart. I love you!!!

It's been more of a birthWEEKEND than a birthDAY :)

Last night, Trav and Chloe took me out to eat. On the menu was a salmon salad with strawberries and mandarin oranges plus a free piece of cherry pie. YUM!

I got to go to bed early (Moms...isn't that a great gift!) and sleep in this morning (Moms...isn't that an ever BETTER gift?!) and then we had my birthday party lunch at Olive Garden with the fam.

When I got home later that afternoon, I took another cat nap, did some yoga, and went to CVS for formula. Lord help us should we ever run out of that! LOL!

I ended up getting a great deal! Haven't been couponing much lately but I took advantage of my similac coupons and my 25% off total, along with some extra bucks rewards.

I ended up getting everything pictured above for $85!

(I'm so excited about those new nail pens...I'm going to give myself a Valentine's manicure tomorrow: Plus I tried Ali's color whisper lipstick today and loved it so much, I got my own. The other cosmetic is color tattoo cream eyeshadow...thought I'd give it a try:)

That may not seem like such a bargain but the normal retail for all items was $170.85 so I saved $85.85 which is more than what I spent!

Also, the three large formulas normally retail for $71 plus tax (total) so you could think of it as getting everything BESIDES the 3 formulas for just $14! I was pretty darn proud of myself!

So...HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME! lol!

Tomorrow we're going out for breakfast and going to Lowes (gosh...I really AM 31 aren't I?!)...I can hardly contain the excitement! hehe :)

I feel so BLESSED...all because I have so many special people in my life!

Love,
Laura
