think spring...

hail...on my car all the way home...on my NEW car all the way home! Now as I type...hail...tapping my windows ...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap...tap. "They" say this is the worst ice storm in years. Great...I am so happy to be a part of it...and so is my car.

Since we have been in Ohio...each year about March I am tired...ummm...my feet are tired...of being cooped up and I begin retiring my boots until next season and breaking my ballet flats back out. I find this a good chunk of time considering that I used to wear my ballet flats year round in Texas. Yes, you say...you are living in Ohio now...umm...my feet don't get that! They are ready to breath and feel loved again with weekly painted toenails!

So as I was driving through the hail and sleet in my first day of the year wearing my flats {obviously not the best day for rebellious feet!}...I just kept coxing myself to "think spring...think spring". Now if these little beauties don't make you "think spring" then I'd love to see the new flats you are eyeing for the SPRING!
PS...does anyone have these? Are they comfy? I have been eyeing them with my T*rget gift card!

ETA...thank you so much for all the ladies that participated and all the lovely readers that left the nicest compliments about my home...it makes opening up my space much fun and easier to share.

welcome...come on in...

Hubby and I moved to Ohio straight from Texas over 3 years ago and just one month after we married! {HUGE summer in our lives to say the least!} Once we settled to unloading the boxes...My goal was to quickly make our first home warm and comfortable on our medical school budget.
Now over 3 years later and 3 months from his graduation we find ourselves about to move again...to a bigger place...hopefully. But before we pack up I share with you...our first place!
