Online Fun Finds

Oh this is just sad - I was going to call this post "Fun Friday Online Finds" until I realized...uh....it's only Tuesday. So you get a little insight to where my head is lately...



So here we have some fun pig bookends by Roost. If you know me very well, you know I like my piggies! A little trait I picked up from my Auntie Mace. With all the books we have around our place, these definitely deserve a home with me!



And because I secretly believe dogs can read...



Happy Friday....um....I mean TUESDAY, everyone!

Easing Back Into Blogging...

It's hard to believe that it has been nearly a MONTH since my last blog post! To be honest, it has really been a wonderful little break. Stepping away from the blog-world has been a good thing. I have to remember to pay a little more attention to the real-life small people who scatter past as I type away on the computer.

And so -I'm easing my way back into blogging. We just returned from a lovely 8-day trip to Newport Beach with the entire the Madsen clan, and I will be posting many beautiful beach and cousin pictures later this week. Tons o' fun.

Meanwhile, a little something for the shopaholics...the Barn has come up with another must-have home decor item for me. I love these keys, don't you?

They are going to look great on the picture wall in our new house! (Did I mention we bought a house? Moving in two weeks...details to come.) I think I might have to order these babies...

Ahh, it's good to be back!

I'm Classy.

These are my sunglasses:

I love them. I've never been bothered by the fact that I totally buy CHEAP sunglasses. When I saw these at Target for a mere $12.99, I snapped them right up. I wear them every day. When I bought them, I loved the little bit o' bling, and I thought they looked pretty classy.

UNTIL...

I was stopped at a stoplight the other day and a raging, scary looking crack ho was crossing the street in front of me...wearing the EXACT. SAME. SUNGLASSES. AS. ME.

Hmm. Perhaps I need to re-think this whole cheap sunglasses thing. And did you know that crack ho's also shop at Target?

Go figure.

Look Out, Mr. Postman

Thanks to a heads up on my pal Mindi's blog, I just ordered this awesome canvas from Pottery Barn, and got a smokin' good deal on it, too. I have been dreaming about it for about a week now - a sure sign that I just HAD to have it.

Don't you just LOVE it??? It's 60x42. Big!

I am SO excited to get it, you have no idea. I am now going to stalk the postman until it arrives.
