good news.

you know those weeks where your like "well geez... this has been just great!" and like everything is going good, there hasn't been any bumps in the road and you just feel like you're cruising along???

THAT has totally been this week. and i fear i'm going to jinx it, but in that case, i'll just deal with it.

here's the recipe for a good week and good news:

1- my brother just got called to serve a 2 year mission for the LDS church in singapore. PRETTY WILD if you ask me. he speaks mandrin and apparently they do too, so it works out great!

2- secret finished school! graduation is next saturday, and it's been so dang delightful to have him around (more, i'm lucky enough to have him home way more than the average husband)(i discovered that when instructed what to do, he is an awesome cleaner and organizer! these men and their hidden talents....).

3- i changed my ringtone to french cafe music and so now whenever someone calls i perk up! i just love feeling like it's springtime in paris.... and then i reluctantly (only because i don't want it to end)answer it. IN FACT: listen to this right now and i challenge you to "not perk up". it's just such "perky, peppy" music!

4- i think we might have decided where we're moving.... :O shocker, i know! but because we've been all up in the air up until now... we decided to keep it a secret until we get there! so that's exciting right??? you'll just have to check back here in 2 weeks to see where we've landed... oh the suspense;)


on a different note: i got an unusual amount of compliments on this outfit yesterday... so possibly worth sharing and documenting??

<lipstick: MAC red, shirt: F21, vest: F21, pants: express>

you know i can't resist stripes and lipstick. it's almost like tom and jerry. boys and girls. apple pie and ice cream. you can't have one without another:)

until next week, adieu!!
