happy friday

This week flew by and this weekend is our last weekend with no plans or obligations for a while. We've got a couple house projects to tackle and I've got a book to read. Needless to say, it will be a wild weekend at the Williams' household.

July looks like it will be a busy month and I'm excited for all that it will bring: two family vacations, a wedding, our anniversary, birthdays, BBQ's, Friday night movies on Art Hill and hopefully a lot of summer fun!

This week I happened upon some good links I wanted to share, so enjoy (especially the second one)!

1. I can't see Alan Rickman without seeing Professor Snape and now I don't have to

2. I love Amy Poehler

3. Now I feel like I should write a letter to my future self.

4. Ikea is one of the best stores on earth, next to Target and Nordstrom, but now their secret is out

5. The July list of what's new to Netflix is out and I'm ready for the newest season of White Collar 

6. We, as a culture, waste too much food

Have a great weekend!

In case you aren't local, all it has done here is rain...for a week straight. Our yard resembles a jungle since it hasn't stopped raining long enough to mow.  Other than work and dodging raindrops, we have been enjoying not having a lot of out of town obligations. We're looking forward to celebrating our dads this weekend and on Saturday we have a full day of house projects to look forward to...yippee!! 

This week I found a few links to share, enjoy!

happy friday

On Monday morning I asked Alex if it was Wednesday, from then on I was turned around on what day of the week it was. But finally today is Friday! We are going to Food Truck Friday tonight in Tower Grove Park (weather depending) and tomorrow we are celebrating Alaina's birthday! It looks like another low key weekend to just enjoy life and the slower pace of summer.

This week I have rounded up a few  links for your reading pleasure. Enjoy!

Just wash your hands...it's a gross world out there

Can you solve this as fast as a 6 year old?

To eat like an Olympian should be an Olympic sport in and of itself.

Have a great weekend!

do you have this condition??

Yesterday we were sitting in a meeting and I looked at Alex and he was looking pretty salty, so I called him on it. There is only one term for his salty expression and it started a long conversation about "resting b**** face".  Apparently it's a problem for a lot of people and may affect you or a loved one.

If you're not sure you have this condition, this article gives a very thorough description. I also recommend this article or this article to help you determine if you're unknowingly suffering. Even Hollywood A-lister's suffer, so you're not alone.

happy friday

This week we got back into the routine of life. We caught up on house work and work work, we got to spend time with friends and cooked in our own kitchen and we even got to sleep in our own bed. It was a good week and I'm looking forward to a restful weekend. The only excitement on our schedule is: today is National Doughnut Day!!  To celebrate this fantastic "holiday" I will be eating far too many doughnuts and you better believe there will be sprinkles involved.

This week I found a few links that I wanted to share with you, so enjoy!

We have only had one cactus survive since we've been married, but maybe there's hope for my not so green thumbs

Happy Weekend!

it's june already?!?

May flew by so quickly that I keep asking myself how it can be June already?! It feels like just yesterday we were packing to go to Oregon. In May, we were gone five weekends in a row- Oregon, Little Rock, Salem, Memphis and Little Rock again! Therefore, I have decided that Alex and I will not be leaving our little corner of the world until July.

The furthest we're going is to Food Truck Friday in Tower Grove Park. We were all over last month and I'm not too keen to repeat it just yet. I love adventure and spontaneity but I'm finding that I enjoy a bit of a routine and consistency too. This month, I'm looking forward to waking up in the same bed all month! It's the little things in life right?
