January has been a wonderful month in our household. We managed to stay in town all four weekends and we literally had nothing on our calendar. I cannot tell you how nice and relaxing it was.
On the cold days and evenings we took advantage of some snuggle time with Samson.
When the weather was beautiful, we took advantage of being outdoors and exploring.
Aaron got a kayak a few weeks ago so we tested it out for the first time in our backyard pond. My plan is to buy a kayak for my birthday so we both have one. I forsee a lot of kayaking float trips in our future this summer.
We also spent a Sunday afternoon walking and exploring a nearby lake. It is such a pretty lake...the water was so blue and clean. We will definitely be spending a lot of time here this summer camping.
We had two new visitors at the Love Shack in January.
My friend Stephanie came to visit. We went out to dinner and then to a monster truck rally. I've always wanted to go to one just to see what it was like. This was a very weak show and wasn't near as cool as I thought it would be, but I must say, we were way too close to those huge trucks and there were times when I got a little nervous.
My friend Beth also came to visit. We hung out at the house for a while just catching up and then we went out to a local casino and had dinner at a sports bar inside the casino. Thanks for coming to see us Steph & Beth. We loved having you!
I've been busy in the evenings working on new items for my Etsy shop and getting orders made and shipped. These are the newest items that I've added to my shop.
I am still really loving my new job. It is a little bit dangerous though because I am around hair and beauty products all day long so I'm constantly wanting to buy new products and try them out. Essie just came out with a new color line and this is the color Suite Retreat. I had to buy it yesterday and I love it!! It's a pretty periwinkle color that makes me excited for spring.
I got behind on my weekly hand lettering project with Pen and Peplum so I'm going to share week 3 and 4 with you at the same time.
