2nd New Addition

As some of you may know, my dear hubby served his mission in Moscow, Russia.

When he came home brought some Matroshka Dolls with him.

His mom has one and it is extremely beautiful and he gave another to his grandmother.

Well they were here for a wedding in November and she brought her doll with her

because she felt like I should have it.

So here she is and I think she is beautiful.

She has lots of dolls inside of her that get smaller and smaller, etc.

I was overwhelmed with joy when she let me have this because I feel like we know have a little piece of Russia and Jeff's experience there inside our home.

Thanks Grandma Roberts!

New Additions

So lately I have a new found obsession with OWLS.

I like vintage, cutesy, black, white, you name it I probably want it.

Well last November I was in San Diego and realized that my brother and sweet wife lived amazingly close to a favorite "dream" store of mine. Meaning I love everything in the catalog but can't afford much in it. My mom and I decided to go into West Elm and I instantly fell in love with these little guys...

My heart instantly melted when I realized how adorable and affordable they were, so I bought the big one and brought him home to stay. A few short days later, I couldn't resist the temptation and went online and bought the 2 little ones to go with it.

These little friends bring me so much joy every time I look at them. I am SO pleased with my purchase and can't wait to add more Owls to my collection. But for now, I am completely thrilled. Especially when I found out there is now a store in Scottsdale!
