Mini Moments

December 31, 2013 by jessica Leave a Comment

I can’t believe another year has passed! Here are a few of my favorite snapshots from the last month of 2013:

  • Decked the halls
  • Embraced the snowy weather in a pair of bright wellies from Joules (see the post here)
  • Baked dozens of holiday cookies
  • Drove to my parents’ house in a winter wonderland
  • Prepared for holiday celebrations with confetti poppers
  • Tucked mini bottles of champagne inside holiday packages
  • Unpacked countless boxes of glittery Christmas ornaments
  • Wrote holiday greetings with the prettiest fountain pen from Parker
  • Danced through the holiday season in tartan flats

I hope you had a wonderful holiday weekend! We barely left the house and it was absolutely perfect. Here are a few of my favorite snapshots from last month:

  • Layers of dainty jewels worn on Thanksgiving
  • Picked up a polka dot shirt and a necklace to match at the J.Crew Factory Store
  • Baked an apple pie
  • Donned mittens for the first time this season
  • Visited downtown Madison for afternoon drinks with Dave
  • Topped off a little white dress with a black bow belt
  • Decked the outdoor deck
  • Welcomed this DVF clutch to my collection for a song
  • Upgraded to the gold iPhone (and then immediately covered it up with this case)
  • Mixed costume jewelry with fine gems
  • Wore tartan flats a lot 
  • Enjoyed Japanese candy, a little surprise gift from our friend who lives in the country

Obsessed over pink and green

Cheered for the Badgers // Harassed the cat (and reviewed a set of pajamas)

Found the perfect black skirt // Coveted this pair of vintage earrings

Wore navy nail polish every single day

Caught up on my favorite magazines // Stacked itty bitty rings

Challenged Dave to a game of cribbage // Mixed polka dots with leopard print

Was reunited with my beloved glitter loafers

We’re back from D.C.! I’m looking forward to a much-needed day to relax and let my sore feet recover from all of that walking! In the meantime, here’s a peek at what we did along with some of my other favorite memories from August.

Purchased flowers at the farmers’ market // Spotted a mermaid door knocker in Old Town Alexandria

image

Shopped in Georgetown // Sampled beer at Great Taste of the Midwest

image

Goofed around in our room at the Loews Madison Hotel while Dave got ready for the day

image

Saw a patriotic horse in Alexandria // Sipped a midday craft cocktail

image

Wore these versatile Kendra Scott earrings with everything // Went to the ball game in D.C.

Took one last photo of Alexandria before our return flight

I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bat I am just the happiest! I keep looking at this bathroom and thinking how lucky we are that we were able to do this! It wasn’t always easy to navigate the stressful moments, but the end result is worth it. I feel like I’m at a luxury hotel every time I shower! (And it sure beats showering with the spiders in our [basically unfinished] basement bathroom. It was like camping in our own home for the past six weeks — and I very much hate camping!)

More photos to come!

My NCAA bracket was busted within the first few ho My NCAA bracket was busted within the first few hours of the tournament, but there's a much more fun one to take part in: a bagel bracket with @bantambagels -- and you can win a month's supply of the winning flavor! There will be a daily matchup on their Instagram stories each Thursday, Friday, Monday, and Tuesday now through April 5. Each vote in the daily face off is a chance to be one of five grand prize winners! My vote goes to Everybody's Favorite, an everything bagel stuffed with veggie cream cheese.

So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye ... to So long, farewell, auf Wiedersehen, goodbye ... to this bathroom. Demolition on our upstairs main bathroom starts today! I love old houses and #OldHouseThings, but this bathroom's prior renovation clearly isn't part of the original home -- nor was it done well. A leak from the bathtub into our kitchen on Easter 2020 kicked off our plans for the renovation and it's finally coming to fruition two years later. The prior damage wasn't caused by leaking pipes (although we just replaced all of the old galvanized pipes with PVC plumbing to futureproof the house); it was from water pooling on the edge of the tub after a shower and then spilling over the side onto the floor. As we discovered, the tub isn't level (nor is the toilet) which caused water to flow over. I'm sure we'll discover plenty of other water damage as our contractor's team starts pulling everything out and I'm so excited for the peace of mind that will come from getting everything in tip top shape. 

Today is also the day that fixtures will be installed in the half bath! There's a short punch list of small things yet to do in that space, but the finished product is right around the corner!
