checking in with Pinterest!

If you're new here, you should know I LOVE Pinterest. I was mildly active before we bought our house, but now that we own a home and are deep into the routine of  married life, I find myself using it all the time! I refer to it for recipes the most, and I keep a running list of decor inspiration and fitness tips to keep me motivated! You can find my profile here or click the button to the left.

Here's what I'm pinning (and doing!) : 


I am pleading with Mark to let me repaint our main bathroom in this slate blue color (shown above and below). It's currently navy, which isn't far off, but we went wrong when we chose to use satin for the bathroom (according to recommendations). It's TOO shiny and a little too dark. Help me convince him!



These look SO good! My mouth waters just looking at them...


I've been dying to make my tiny laundry corner a little more functional, so I've been pinning lots of ideas for worksurfaces. Look for a blog post in the future if I ever get around to it!


We have explored 500+ options for our next backyard landscaping project. Right now I'm liking the below image, but the grass would be pebbles because grass isn't growing in the area we want to do this.


I've seen SO many people repin this and they look super yummy! I have a jar of Nutella in my pantry just begging to be turned into this...


I saw this picture and was like - YES - this is my style, to a T. Do you agree?


I made this baked cream cheese spaghetti last Sunday and it was pretty tasty!


I also had this chicken taco bowl recipe cooking in the crock pot all day Tuesday. It was really tasty, very similar to a chili I make in the fall, but I didn't serve it over rice because we didn't end up eating until about 9:45 that night! 


Love this print... 


...and this one too!


This California club pasta salad is DELICIOUS and perfectly light for summer. I didn't have avocados (oops) so I just put a tiny bit of ranch dressing in there, and it was SOOO GOOOOD. Seriously, this is going to become a staple recipe, which I don't currently have, other than desserts. :)


I'm still trying to come up with things to do for our trip to California in September. Santa Barbara is high on the list!



We've decided on pretty solid plans for our backyard, but now we just have to implement them! I'm thinking of doing a garden on one side of the house. I love this quaint one below! Looks manageable!


Happy pinning!

Humpday blues

Whew. Crazy week, and it's only halfway over! Can I just say that extra Monday off of work next week will be SO sweet? Amiright???

Anyway, this week is trying to swallow me whole. It's times like these, however, where I pat myself on the back for having a "Happiness" pinterest board where I can look at all sorts of things, pictures, and quotes that make me happy. 

Maybe you're having a crazy week too, so here are some images from my Happiness board this week that just might hit the spot with you.
