I have to admit when handed the task to thing of 101 things to do in 1001 days I was rather overwhelmed by the process of thinking of 101 things to do and I pushed it aside for nearly a year.
So here goes, my 25. I can handle 25 things without feeling crazyily stressed about an idea that should have been fun.
1. Get married (did that!)
2. Tear carpet out of our bedroom, the last room in the house with carpet
3. Learn to scrapbook.
4. Scrapbook our wedding photos
5. Lose 20 more lbs.
6. Walk, walk, walk
7. Play more with Amber, at the park, in the yard, in the house, with crafts, just more, with less stress
8. Fix up gardens, build up the soil, keep up on the weeding
9. Fix up deck & yard
10. Throw a fun backyard dinner party for friends to enjoy newly fixed up back yard!
11. Tent more.
12. Find local hiking trails
13. Hike off the beaten path
14. Find those waterfalls around here that we hear so much about
15. Go fishing. Just once.
16. Try Yoga. You have the mat, the block, the DVD, the pants... what's your excuse now? Oh yah, and those other dvd's use them too.
17. Craft more. Finish up those great new ideas you started last fall.
18. Play more. Just in general.
19. See more sunrises and enjoy every sunset I can (We've experienced so many sunsets since getting married!)
20. Try at least one new great recipe a week (I've already started, makes the family so happy to have somethign fun and new at the supper table)
21. Be happy. Really happy. Let yourself be truely happy. Love yourself.
22. Clear clutter. The attic clutter, the closet clutter, the clutter that hides unber Miss A's bed and the clutter that seems to be cluttering my mind!
23. Grow a herb garden and USE the herbs.
24. Be the best mum and wife I can possibly be.
25. Treat myself to something special once a month (mani? pedi? walk by myself? date with my muM? date with my husband? just something special for me)
There, that wasn't so hard was it!

25 Things to do While I'm 25

How could I forget Goofy?
A beachy little sale
Love to Shop, green baggin' it


The next bag I tried was this one from envirosax. Another winner! Strong, light weight and rolls into the tiniest spot in my purse. They come in tons of trendy designs and well worth the money if you want a bag that will last.
We really need to do our part and saving a few millions tons of plastic bags from the garbage every year is a great start! AND FYI some local grocery stores are already beginning to require reusable bags, no longer offering the plastic version. AND Pete's Fruitique that I mentioned above charges a five cent eco charge for every plastic bag you use. That will add up quick enough to buy a reusable bag or three :)
Happy Shopping!

Whispering sweet nothings.
Vacation is coming to a close, the harsh reality of real life is setting in, but that giddy, lovey, feeling hasn't yet subsided.
Angus went back to work today, but we have a long weekend coming to help ease us back into this.
I just found out about a craft show coming in September, so that has given me a renewed energy to focus on more crafting. I have to admit I've been completely off the crafts, ignoring my knitting, hiding my crocheting and I haven't even looked at a set of tongs in weeks. (Note to self, Mum needs her set repaired after closing the utensil drawer on them a little too hard)
I also must give a little shout out to Ralph Clemments, our photographer! Isn't he fab?! He's based out of Sarasota. Check him out if you ever need wedding photos, family portraits etc. He helped sooth Angus' nerves, dealt with me being 45 minutes fashionably late, and is utterly incredible!
Hope its a great day!

LeBarge Tropical Sunset Cruise!
Lebarge Tropical Cruises was just a blast. They offer sight-seeing tours during the day, you can book them for weddings and parties. And we'll definitely be taking friends next time we go!
There were even palm trees growing on the party deck!! ♥

Married and in love

Mrs. Horsman ♥ that still hasn't got old. And I still haven't mastered my new signature.

daisy yellow
I got these gorgeous yellow dishes as a shower gift and just found the picture and HAD to share! They go so well with my blue kitchen and blue delphite antique dishes I collect. Love them!
Thanks everyone!

We are going to Orlando for a day to take the kiddo to Disney, and were thinking of heading to Tampa for Busch Gardens just the two of us for a day but the scardy pants in me is terrified of roller coasters and I don't know how much of that I could handle.
