The sister and I left the bungalow {my crib} yesterday only a few small even number of minutes past twelve. After getting stopped (for a good thirty minutes) before we even made it to Luverne due to crazy boring road work we then met the brother to stuff (yes, literally stuff) more things in the tightly packed Reba. You know, adding (more) to a car slam full of tables, a shelf, chairs, a bench, and much much more is so very normal for Marley and I. Needless to say, our day was full force from noon until.... well pretty much now. We didn't return to the bungalow until almost dark tonight. Yes, tonight. After a decent tip to the mariachi band, we had more than the first request of Hotel California played. Of course, ending in the Troy fight song.

With our lips painted red we felt it was only fair to paint the county we were in red, too. And all of the festivities ended slowly at our Memo's house only until homemade waffles were made for us this morning and we were up and at it again. Preparing for big things in store as the first month of the new year is coming up to its half way point.



Happy Saturday. From me (and ziggy) to you.

love,
m

i want to buy a vintage camper (small in size) and live in it for a summer. maybe on a farm.
i rarely quit talking. in fact, i tell my best stories while i am sleeping.
i am a professional blanket fort builder....
and a part time palm reader (in the state of florida, at least)
i live in a world full of pretending.

happy hump day.

i change my "color crush" very often.
deep down in my heart my all time favorite (color) remains the same color as my eyes. 

and if you don't know what color my eyes are i will tell you just like i tell anyone else when need be...
"my eyes are green and you better write that down."

but today we are only talking crushes....
and these colors.....


they have me crushing. 
hard.


love,
m

good tune tuesday




lovem

for my one day. some day.

"May God bless and keep you always
May your wishes all come true
May you always do for others
And let others do for you
May you build a ladder to the stars
And climb on every rung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young."





i love kids. 
i {really} [really] do. 
and when the time comes for me to have my very own little nugget.
he....
or she..... ( i can live with either )
there is no doubt that bob dylan i will sing express to them the words from the song forever young.



"May you grow up to be righteous
May you grow up to be true
May you always know the truth
And see the lights surrounding you
May you always be courageous
Stand upright and be strong
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young.

May your hands always be busy
May your feet always be swift
May you have a strong foundation
When the winds of changes shift
May your heart always be joyful
And may your song always be sung
May you stay forever young
Forever young, forever young
May you stay forever young."

my home's in alabama.

this girl (me, me) loves some "football food".
especially when the cook is as spectacular as the one who just cooked for me.

for my home state
LETS DO IT.
Hard. 


and for all of my friends being {more than} fancy in new orleans tonight- 
BE SAFE. 
yet do not be afraid to celebrate so wonderfully that you
(or the friend whom happens to be standing the closest to your side at the time)
misjudge the location of the bar stool you are aiming your booty towards.

because it is more than a fact that the floors on bourbon street always feel the love of an alabama behind when they hit so hard gracefully....

game face.
is on.

and if i was sitting in a [football themed] steven tyler chair tonight....
i would certainly have no problem sending THIS little football player straight to hollywood.
:

to the big brother:
i owe a {simple} little love filled birthday shout-out.
only a few days {fashionably} late, but of course.
i hope you are smiling right now, where ever it may be that you are watching the game.

love,
m
