The Saturday Six

One.

I keep forgetting to show you this idea I came up with! It's one way we keep track of a synopsis of life in Shafferland. Each month I purchase a 12x12 piece of scrapbook paper and hang it on the fridge. I bought a set of stickers for each month and put the month name on the page. As we go along throughout the month, we write on the paper anything fun/interesting/noteworthy we do as a couple. Vacations...people we eat out with...projects we do around the house, etc. Then at the end of the year, I'll put them in a traditional scrapbook album and start a new round for next year - a photoless scrapped journal of our year!


 Two.
Back at Easter, when we had lunch at Ryan's aunt and uncle's house, they served Boca Java coffee. FABULOUS. They were kind enough to offer us a bag for our own and we may or may not have polished it off. The kind we had was Cottontail Delight, which is seasonal...and now is not the season. MUCH SADNESS. But we'll be keeping an eye out for that come spring!!

Three.


I read this article after one of my Facebook friends linked to it - and I cracked up! {And I'm not a parent!} I was relieved that if I ever had a baby, only two of these on here apply to me, but I was a little worried about all my other "I would never's" that weren't on the list! That's why it's a good idea for me to NOT be a mom.

Four.



I found this website via the fabulous ladies over at Dating Divas. First of all...I love the name. Maskcara. The blogger's name is Cara. And she does makeup. Get it? I love it. But I love the way she explains makeup. I admit I am scared of figuring out how to do makeup well. I just keep going and going reading older posts to learn more!!

Five.



I love everything about this little nook from Down to Earth Style. It's so cute. But what really kills me? Lights in the fern. It's too much. In the most perfect possible way.

Love this song by my friend Brent Vernon. I had this used at my baptism a couple of years ago. POWERFUL lyrics.

I love the idea of the photoless scrapbook journal. It's a unique way to remember the year.
