Why can't every day look like this? I think I'm going to print some of these pictures (maybe canvas, ooo la la!) and hang them above my bed, because they instantly put me in a better mood just looking at them:)
Hope everyone is enjoying this phenomenal weather! I wish EVERY day felt like these past few days have felt - I'll admit, I think part of the reason I'm so excited about this weather is A) no more winter jackets, and B) flip flops. Gotta love flip flops:)
Happy Spring!
Sometimes, I have random things to say to all of you out in the internet world, but I'm not sure where to put it on my blog. So I decided to start a new category called "Monday's Musings" - and that's all it will be - random things I want to tell all of you out there. Just 'cause. Who wouldn't want to hear my random thoughts, right? On a Monday? Sound good? K:)
When I was growing up, we only ever had one pet - a rabbit named Peter. Yes, Peter the Rabbit. Our family won the "most creative pet name" award. No lie. I wasn't really a "pet" person - this tiny floppy ear rabbit kind of scared me and I wouldn't even pick him up until we had him for about a year. At first I would only hold him if he was wrapped in a towel - because, you know a thin towel would totally protect me if he decided to bite me (because that's what rabbits are known for, being vicious, right?). Yes, I was weird, and pretty much afraid of all animals. I was definitely never a "cat person" - they kinda creeped me out. But then my sister got a little cat named Kayla, and I kinda fell in love. A little more than kinda. So for the last two weeks I had to watch Kayla when my sister and mom went to Florida (yes, it was torturous knowing they were in sunny Florida while I was stuck up here in the ugly winter of PA). And I think I've kinda turned into a pet person. She kept me company in my office every night while I worked - this is Miss Kayla:
I just love her! The picture above is a little blurry, because she does NOT sit still, and it was hard enough getting that picture - same with the self portrait below hah. I miss my little office buddy!
Remember getting care packages in the mail in college? Weren't those the best? Well I still get 'em. My sister is the best - every once in a while she surprises me with a package full of little gifts, and each gift is wrapped individually - because that always makes it WAY more exciting unwrapping each thing:) Jess, you're the best.....you really are:) So the other day I got a package that was covered in shamrock stickers, and I tore through that thing like it was Christmas - it totally made my week! In the package she gave me this shirt and pair of socks:
I'm running a St. Patrick's Day 5K this weekend, so she wanted me to have something awesome to wear. So I'll be rocking this t-shirt, black shorts, and these socks pulled up to my knees. And I'm going to look awesome doing it. No matter what Jay tells you. I think I'm going to try to find shamrock shaped sunglasses and make Jay wear them during the run - he'll DEFINITELY be up for that. I'll be sure to tweet about it if I accomplish that:)
Happy Monday!
Um, who’s Kayla? Mittens?
Awww, cute pic of you and Kayla
I feel the same way! I kind of dislike cats actually, until I agreed to adopt my friend’s cat b/c her fiance was deathly allergic and no one else would take this cat and they were going to give her to the pound. Now 3 years later, I LOVE my Chloe baby, like she is my child…she’s such a good little cat. 
P.S. Kayla is pretty freaking cute.
I so miss having a cat – very good company indeed! And your sister is awesome! I even get excited when she sends you packages! haha
I think you need a more comfortable office chair!!
Your sister is awesome! Can’t wait to see pics from the 5K

They were gorgeous!…don’t worry I got some great shots with my old point and shoot too! Haha!
These are so good (as usual)! I also LOVE the blue sky one
Beautiful shots Tina! I love the one with the blue sky behind the blossoms. What a gorgeous weekend we had and I also love to wear flip-flops!
Oh I love them – I think we all might be stealing them to hang them somewhere in our houses! haha I’m so ready to move somewhere where they’ve never seen snow!!
I’d have to agree Tina – flip flops are a MUST! Great shots!
Ahhh, so beautiful! I can’t wait til Iowa blooms like that!
Ooooh – that first one! I might want to make it a canvas and hang it over MY bed too!
GORGEOUS sweetie! Can’t wait to take some of my own photos like these over the next two weeks; our trees aren’t quite in full bloom yet.
