cleaning out

While Charlie was gone I did a lot of cleaning and finally got around to listing a million wedding items online. I'm so ready to get all of this clutter out of here! It's been piled in our guest bedroom closet for two months and every time I have to go in there I cringe. Now, hopefully it all sells! 

Anyway, while I was cleaning I came upon hundreds of cards. I have literally saved nearly every single card that I have received in my life. I even have cards from the day I was born! I decided that I probably can't keep doing this for the rest of my life without taking up tons of space. 

Luckily, I recently came across an idea on Pinterest to go through and decide which cards are truly important (hello, day of birth card!) and keep these. Then scan the rest onto your computer and donate them. I love that I'm getting rid of clutter and able to help someone at the same time! I thought I'd share this with you so you can make sure to keep this in mind for the upcoming holiday season!

We finally got our cabinet that I mentioned here, and it fits great!
our side table that I've mentioned about a million times. 

Now, if only I could find the perfect sofa and chairs. They don't exist in my price range :(

tobias funke's birthday

I just dropped Charlie off at the airport. He's going to Vegas for the weekend which means you can find me obsessively cleaning, baking, pinning and sleeping with the lights on (because that keeps the murderers away, you know?) convinced that every sound I hear is someone breaking into my house :) 


Looks like Toby is the man in charge now. Which reminds me, I never showed you his birthday pictures. Yes, this happened.

Penny is very impatient. Toby is just confused.
I felt judged by the man who checked us out at Target. We had party hats, a candle, and a cupcake dog toy. He knew.
