RED
About a month ago I ordered some things for Bryce from the Disney Store for Christmas. Among the items were a few of his favorite "hot wheels" type CARS characters. He already has a bunch of the characters but there were 3 in particular that he doesn't have that would make perfect stocking stuffers. I quickly ordered and checked over my shopping cart (which has pictures of each item next to the list of purchases) and called it good after reading it 3 times.
Complete Order-CHECK!
When the box arrived in the mail I went through the inventory & found this little guy at the bottom of the shipping box.
Disney CARS character called: "Red"
I thought-Weird....Bryce already has that one-in fact it was one of the FIRST ones he ever owned. I KNOW I didn't order it. But there is was. Clear as day. Odd. I didn't obsess about it and figured I'd just put it in the closet for a gift for whoever at some point.
A couple weeks later-Mike sent me an email about the family that we had adopted for Christmas this year.
Single mom and 4 year old boy.....
and there just as clear as the extra ordered item in my Disney Store box it read "LOVES FIRETRUCKS"!
Coincidence? I think not. And suddenly it all made sense.
I love when our Heavenly Father works through us like that. LOVE it!
Restoration Hardware! Who Knew?
My newest favorite shop. Ohhhhhh-I am in LOVE and it is NOT A GOOD THING. Just look at a few of my picks to drool over:
Are you KIDDING me? Pottery Barn-move on over. There's a new girl in town :) (Go figure this store has been around for a while-Mike & I even perused it some in High School, but I DO NOT recall these type of fabulous treasures???) Be still my heart. Be still.
Thank You Pinterest!
How did I EVER live without Pinterest....seriously folks....seriously. Gave me some awesome inspiration for christmas gifts this year. Like this for my favorite hairdresser in town:
She LOVES it-I do to. It will look so darn cute in her posh little salon.
Then I am going to do this to the stool that Mike made me...obviously in the hopes to save it as a family heirloom.
And last-I am already in the process of making this little gem. Can't wait to finally have a growth chart in the house-a CUTE one at that! I've wanted one since Bryce was born but never found one I liked, or was my style-THIS however, has KRISTI written all over it! :)
Pinterest-you are my HERO!
Christmas in the Burg
Christmas always comes a day early at our place....
looks like Santa was super good to the kids this year!

Martone Kids Christmas Shoot
This whole thing is a long story-which I will blog about later, let's just say-loooooong trip to Seattle for customary grandparent eye candy picts during this time of year & then I ended up just doing them myself....grrrr. Lesson learned maybe?
