Listography!!!!

So on Tuesday, my friend Erykah and I got matching books to document in our lives..... Listography-Your Life in Lists. It basically prompts you to make lists of sweet shit in your life like:
"List Your Character Flaws" and "List the Strangest Places You Have Had Sex In"

Making lists is one of my favorite things to do. There is just something so very satisfying about making lists. In honor of my new book, I have decided to publish some of the ongoing lists for your reading pleasure:)


"List Your Guilty Pleasures"
1. Egg McMuffins
2. Expensive Chocolate
3. The Ashlee Simpson show
4. Lurking on Facebook
5. Looking at other girl's boobs when they are talking to me
6. Talking crap about passers by
7. Avril Lavigne's first record
8. Licking the pan after I cook
9. Buying expensive shoes, purses, makeup, and jewelry
10. Maple donuts from Casey's (I eat these in the car so no one will find out!)


What's your guilty pleasure?

NYE 2010

















Sugar Cookies Galore


This holiday season, many sugar cookies were made- 7 batches to be correct! Will and I brought cookies to our work, gave them out to friends, and brought them home to our families. I ate Christmas cookies and milk for breakfast many mornings!!!! Oh, the holidays!





Ahhhh, Family Christmas Time!!!!


Although our gifts might seem kinda lame and unremarkable, my family and I actually had a pretty nice Christmas this year. I brought tons of homemade cookies, my mom made a ham and all that good stuff, and even a trip to my grandmother's house wasn't that terrible. What a lovely Christmas!




Open Your Presents, Spencer!


Spencer got lots of presents for Christmas, of course! .....Not that he was all that good of a boy or anything. I thought this series of photos of Spencer opening up his present and then tearing all of the wrapping paper into little, itty, bitty shreds was kinda cute so here ya go!


Knitted Presents from Emily!


Better late than never...... Christmas always rules cause you get presents, duh. My coolest presents were knitted by Miss Emily! I love, love, love my knitted owl (although it is a bitch to keep away from Spencer the Dog), I wear my cute knitted hat everyday, and I have totally been rocking the flowers in my hair and stuff. Pure knitted perfection! I love it!


2010 is Here!


Spencer the Dog knows how to par-tay! Actually, Spencer the Dog only knows how to chew. He chews everything. Not even joking. Happy New Year, everyone!

Getting all gussied up for Christmas


Look at how huge Spencer's tongue is here!!! My pup got sooo excited when we got his sweater on that he started running around like a maniac. Needless to say, it was close to impossible to photograph the boy then. We even tried to bribe him with Cheerios and I think that just made him even more crazy. The dog will do anything for food, what can I say!



We held Spencer up so he could sniff the tree. In reality, he could not care less about human stuff like Christmas trees and whatnot. For Spencer, he mostly just wants to eat, sleep, play, chew and poop!




Snow Doggie!


This morning, Spencer got to experience his first snow! At first, he was reluctant to get off of the beaten path, but soon he became brave and began to frolic through the snow and sniff at it until it made him sneeze. What a cutie!

Later in the evening, we got quite a bit more snow so I put on my parka and my Northface boots to play in the snow with him. It is such a joy to watch my pooch jump through the big piles of snow like a rabbit. After all, his little puppy legs are not very long! How very fun. I have always wanted a dog of my own to play in the snow and through the seasons with. I don't know what Will and I ever did without Spencer because he fills everyday with new adventure and happiness.
