Pastel loves

I love the soft colors and pretty prints of My Mind's Eye Follow Your Heart Be Happy collection, and I thought it was perfect for a two-page layout of our dear friends.  The layout on the left hand side is inspired by MME's love challenge and based off of Blue Fern's sketch challenge (I turned the sketch on its side). The layout on the right hand side of the page is based on this month's C'est Magnifique's sketch and Scrap Around the World's mood board.  I loved the gold and pink combination in the mood board, the general love theme, and the idea of white space.

Apple Pie is Delicious

Jesse and I don't usually make a big deal out of Valentines Day.  This year, I baked Jesse an apple pie, which is significant because, despite the fact that Jesse loves pies, I have not baked him one in 3 years!  (Yikes!)  Pictures (proof) below, and I promise that it tastes better than it looks.  For his part, Jesse did buy me a couple presents for Valentines Day, so don't think that I good the short end of the stick!

My car is old!

I can hardly believe that my car is almost 5 years old!  Jesse and I were in the car when we noticed that my car was almost and then exactly at 50,000 miles!  Crazy -- I feel like I just got it!

Indoor Soccer

Jesse's indoor soccer team had a reasonably-timed game this week (i.e. not 10pm) so I attended and snapped some shots.  Unfortunately, Jesse's team lost, but he played well and looked good doing it!
