Spring Time

Well, sorry it's been so long for all of my readers....I swear Brandon and I went into some sort of hibernation period until it got warm out again!  But we made it through...the food and the cute new puppy helped. :)

Mmm, a nice ham dinner.

Mini Chicken Pot Pies

Isn't she adorable?!

Zoey came home with us on March 23rd, 2013.  We drove out past Chicago to get her.  It was a fun road trip!  We stopped in Schaumburg to eat at the Cheesecake Factory (my absolute *favorite* restaurant) and then went to the breeder's house to pick our little angel up.  She is so good!

Um, yes please...

 Here she is in the car.  She was so tiny!  (Compared to now at 4 months!)  She cried for about 10 minutes and then was quiet for the last 3 hours of our ride.  And she didn't cry at night either...such a good dog!

She LOVES Brandon.  I should have known from the time I took this picture at a rest stop on the way home!  Haha!

Please note that jumping up is only allowed on day 1....haha! 

When we got home she was still so shy.  We practically had to pull her out of her cage, but, she got used to us pretty quick. :)

So tiny she ate out of the dog food scoop!

First family picture...cheesy but good ;)

Anyways, Zoey is awesome...but I will fill you in on my Spring/Easter decorating now!  (I'm a bit behind I know....the Easter stuff has already been put away for a while!)

I went on a crazy Target shopping spree and found so much cute Spring stuff.  Most of it went in the living room so this will be a short tour:

Cute Easter eggs that are supposed to stack inside each other.....but are painted shut! 

Coffee table centerpiece....Brandon's favorite ;)

My cute little yarn chicks.  These are still out, just in a different spot. 

These are from Pottery Barn.  My mom gave them to me from her old Easter stuff.  I loved having them across my piano, they we so Springy on such cloudy, wintery days.

New WREATH!  I think I have an obsession! 

And, last but not least, my little chick pots that grow grass "hair"!  They have received a nice haircut since that last picture....that hair was a little too wild for me!

Well, I hope you all have enjoyed your time this Spring season!  I feel like it's officially summer based on temperatures alone...but not quite yet.  I have a lot more home updates (and puppy updates) coming so stay tuned!

I'll leave with the most darling picture of baby Zoey:

LOVE.
