A Thursday...

I like Thursdays.  There's just something about them.  It's probably the fact that for the past 7.5 years of my life Thursdays are my Fridays....and we all know how we feel about Fridays.

And this Thursday was a day of random firsts....and I managed to get some random photo's just for you.

On this Thursday....

I mailed off my first international Kristin's Kreations order.  So exciting.  I even filled out my customs form before I went---and did it right! :)




Angelica--your headbands are on their way!  Thank you for your support and encouragement!

Then I came home and my hubs brought me my first decaf peppermint mocha of the season...


I was trying to hold out till after Thanksgiving--because I can hear my mother's voice in my head--saying we do not bring out the Christmas decorations till the day after Thanksgiving--and somewhere in my mind that equated peppermint mocha's.  I was even very tempted today while at Target buying some necessary items due to Little Hoot making my body grow--but I held out. 

Then I got this text from my hubs....


I think he was trying to show me his artwork--which I am so proud of him--but my response was please oh please oh please.  He's too good to me.

And tonight was the first game night we've had with our lovely roommate Katie, her fiance' Jordan and friends Kayla and Ryan.  I retreated to the upstairs because I had to blog and switch out the laundry and thought oh I need a picture for my blog--so I ran back downstairs.  Unfortunately Kayla and Ryan had already left and I found Robert going over budgets and finances with Jordan and Katie....not as exciting as game night, but they are cute aren't they?


And my dear friend Kathy has been working on a project for me this week--along with Robert--and I got Kathy's today.  I have been in need of a "button" for something exciting I have coming up and they both did amazingly well.  I love how this has become such a community effort!!!



And I got some photo editing tips from my new friend, Caroline.  I've been having some issues with making my photo's on etsy look clear and she walked me through step by step.  I just got really excited at the difference it made!  I might just stay up all night redoing all my pictures that are currently on etsy--well I am pregnant and it's past my bedtime now anyway---so we'll say that's a weekend project.  Thank you Caroline!  You all need to go visit her shop and her blog!  So cute!

Here's the first picture I've tweaked.  I love it--it screams fall to me---but are we past fall and onto Christmas?  Y'all let me know.  And what are Christmasy colors to you---other than say red and green? :)


Alrighty--it is my Friday night, but I can't get all too crazy and stay up past midnight!  (Plus the hubs has to be up for work at 6am, so he wouldn't much appreciate it!)

Good night friends!
