I'm (still) lovin' it

This weekend I worked both Saturday and Sunday. Which is really hard especially when your hubby is all snuggled in bed and you loose an hour of sleep! But I made the best of it and started the weekend by treating myself to breakfast Saturday morning.

Yep an egg McMuffin minus the Canadian bacon. It is one of my favorites (don't judge)! I also treated myself with one of these.

It has been about 2 years since I had an Iced Coffee from McDonald's. As some of you may know these babies came out about 2 or 3 summers ago, they were only $1. I tried one (loved it) and drank them a lot that summer. Since then I just fell off the wagon or fell back on to the Starbucks wagon. I also stopped again this morning just for another one of these. Again don't judge me. I also really like McDonald's in general. Watching Super Size me will not change my mind, ever. I really don't eat there that much so you don't have to worry about me dying of a heart attack early in life. Please try one of these sweet little creations while the weather is warm outside. My favorite is sugar-free vanilla (which is only 90cal for the medium incase you care!) Hope you all have a great Monday! I'll be thinking of you from my warm bed! :)

Our night without lights.

Last night during the Oscar's Ryan and I had the misfortune of loosing power! We lit about 4 candles in the living room, waited around for about 10 minutes for the power to come back on and when it didn't we decided to turn in.


Can you even believe that not that long ago people lived without power? I totally understand the original need for daylight savings! Those extra hours of daylight are so valuable when you only have candles. As we discovered last night, you really can't read very well with candles, wash your face, or put away the laundry. Especially when you don't want to drip wax all over your house. I actually thought it was nice to be without power, it provoked conversation between Ryan and me as well as helped me fall asleep faster than I usually do! I woke up feeling more refreshed than normal. Maybe all you need is a night without lights with your honey to feel refreshed too?

Money, Money, Money

I have a confession to make, my eyes are green just about all the time these days. As in green with envy. I litterally feel like I want everything I see which mostly just makes me want things other people have. Lately I have really wanted a new bathing suit. I have also wanted a nice camera for years and now a lot {Jenna and Rachel} of my friends have one and that makes me green too. BUT as you all know I got married last year and the very last thing on my husband's mind is spending money. All he seems to talk about is


that's right 401k's, roth IRA's, and retirement. I am 24 years old people! It is driving me crazy! I know deep down in my heart that I have an amazing husband and {apparently} we will be able to retire in our 50's. Which is really exciting because I don't want to work for the rest of my life. I actually don't want to work tomorrow, so retirement would be good, but sometimes I would just like to buy all this

and make over our bedroom. I am praying that I will be more focused on building up treasure where it really matters, but sometimes it is really hard to not get sucked into this world. Please think about me and pray that I will not become cosumed in earthly treasures.

Terranea Resort

While I do not normally watch the Bachelor Ryan and I tuned in last night. In case you didn't already know, we were really disappointed with the ending, but we did find out some fun news. Next week Jason and Molly are getting married at Terranea Resort which is were Ryan and I spend out honeymoon! Just like Katie said it is so fun to see the beautiful place where you made so many fun memories! I hope you can all tune in so you to can get a little taste of what it was like to be on my honeymoon! And then we can talk about it since you all know I really like to talk! :)

Here is a little preview of one of my favorite places...



Also I feel like I should say I was really not overly excited about going to California for my honeymoon. I guess I really felt like I should go someone more exotic {mostly Hawaii or Fuji}. Please don't judge me for being shallow in this sense but as God always does he more than humbled me. I have never been treated so well or pampered like I was on my honeymoon. Props to my husband and my mother in law for picking this amazing place! I really hope we can afford to go back super soon!
