The Goal: to take and post at least one picture each day for the entire year that I'm 27.

I find that I rush through the day, to rush through the week, to get to the weekend...just to find that an entire year goes by in the blink of an eye. So, on the eve of my last day as a 26 year old I decided to make a change. I challenged myself to take the time each day and find at least one moment worth remembering, hoping that in this way I will learn to live each day for what it is. For regardless of how uniform the days may feel at a glace each one is truly unique and worth cherishing.

Day 82 - Pillow Talk


There are a million things I could write about tonight...
From the sexy new shoes I got, to the funky/sophisticated work dress I got,
to the just having an amazing time being out shopping with my mom...
But the truth is - I am exhausted and it is way past my bed time (I get up at 5am remember)
So I leave you with this...a picture of the amazing fall pillows I spied in Dillard's...
It was a good thing my mom kept our shopping on track because these beauties really had me distracted!

Day 81 - New dress or bust!


My entire family has a wedding to go to this weekend
And as expected my mom and I both have loaded closets and nothing to wear!
So tonight we had an in home fashion show trying on old and new dresses
In the hopes of finding a winning combo
We found a few good options but we are going to continue the search tomorrow
Oh and after trying on super tight dresses that made me look like I had a beer gut...
(even though I don't drink)... we went out and ate this (picture above)
So yeah, my lack of working out and my constant treat consumption kind of explains
my need for a special dress that magically makes me look amazing...hope I can find it : )

Day 80 - What are my options?

This is my client's chair...and it (along with 15 of it's friends) need to get reupholstered

These are the fabric options (along with the carpet's used in the project) I am giving my clients...
The question is: Which one would you choose?

Day 77 - Oops


We are in Cali visiting my sister again...
I had some really cute pictures of our day...but when we got back to the hotel I had a sad realization...
I left my USB cord at home and can't download my pictures onto the computer
Luckily Steve came to the rescue with his Droid - snapped this sad picture and kept the blog going!

Day 76 - Almost time...





Wes wants to know why we aren't in bed like Steve is...

We are getting up tomorrow at 5am so we can hit the road at 6am
Because it is never to early when you are on your way to see your sissy!!!

I am finishing up a load of laundry, some packing, and of course my daily blog
Steve is hopefully falling asleep - I promised him we could go to bed at 9:30 tonight...
And although I didn't quite make that deadline...he did get in bed at 6:40 and I will join him at 9:00...
So I think I did pretty good...the dogs think it is time for bed now!!!
