At A Glance.

To celebrate the new year, I put up my 2011 letterpress calendar from Ilee Papergoods. I bought this recently at Renegade & have been anxious to put it up ever since. I used Katie's technique of using clothespins to hang them on the wall in our little entrance.





Also, yesterday for my mom's birthday we went up to Jackson County area to do a little antique store hunting. We stopped at that creepy, yet ridiculously amazing, antique store I blogged about awhile back and this time the owner was actually around. He was exactly as I had imagined, and can be summed up with this conversation we overhead him having with a fellow shopper:

Owner: "Somedays I just wish a big ol' earthquake would hit"
Shopper: "Why because you have insurance?"
Owner: "Nope, I just wanna go fishin'"

He was adorable, and so are the three flowered tins I bought from him, which are now sitting in the entry way under the calendar.

PS Happy New Year! Have a fun & safe night. As my yoga instructor said, "be careful, what you do on New Year's Eve is a good indicator how you will be spending the rest of the year".

A Simple Resolution.

I don't want to start over this new year, I'm happy with where I am and what I'm doing. But I do have one simple resolution, this year I will spend more time outdoors. You may wonder why I need to make this a resolution, or why this even matters enough to blog about. But for me, being outside is the key to happiness & this year I plan on being as happy as humanly possible. Well, how about as humanly possible for me- I don't mind giving in to the grumpy Ashley ever once in awhile.

What's your resolution? I'd love to hear.
