Happy Birthday!

Happy Birthday, to me! I can't believe that I am 22 years old! These last couple of years have gone by SO fast. I am getting older (and wiser) and I am grateful for the things and the people that I have in my life! I'm also grateful for my parents to taught me what was right and I'm glad that I have listened to the "Kindred Family Rule #5" which is Don't Be an Idiot. I am very happy with who I am and where I am going. I hope these next couple of years of my life turn out to be as great as the last few!

I am getting a new CAMERA for my birthday, I just have to wait until January to get it. Today Bryce and I hung out and went shopping and then went out to eat at Texas Roadhouse. Granny sent us a gift card for it for $25 bucks, so we only had to spend $15. We had yummy food and now we are relaxing and we are going to watch Harry Potter! It was a great day!

More couch pillows

My iPhone camera pictures don't do my pillows justice. I cleaned up from our Christmas mess and took some cuter pictures of my couch pillows. I just want to put them on my blog so I can always remember them :)

Up close and personal

ahh, beauty.

"C" is for Cute (and Clark)

Ellie likes to be in all of my pictures. She saw me taking pictures and jumped right up

and another view

a very cute sign that my mom made me for Christmas. I am going to hang it up above my little couch below the window

I never in my life thought that I would enjoy sewing or decorating a house. I'm becoming more and more like my mother. Which is a good thing!

Couch Pillows

Before Bryce and I got married we had an apartment already and were in the process of looking for furniture. I found a great and white striped couch that was so cute and I loved it. It was $25 at a yard sale. After buying it and bringing it inside it was a little dirtier then I realized. But I guess I did only pay $25 bucks for it. After months and months of looking for couch covers I finally bought some. It was the best decision I made for that couch. I didn't feel gross sitting on it and it just looked nice.


The pillows on the couch are not the cleanest but I couldn't clean the pillows. (They are huge and they didn't have a zipper on it). So, I made new pillow cases! They are soooo dang cute. My friend Stephanie's sister in law, Lacee helped me. They turned out great. They are still a little lumpy but I am working on that. I was also able to put zippers on them so I can wash them too. I am excited. The day after I made them I had to work all day and all I wanted to do was look at them. Well, that's enough about my couch. Let me show you some pictures:

The first original couch

This was a small love seat (that was green) that we got from our neighbors

Both the couches with couch covers

The new and improved green striped couch.

(The 2 small red pillows actually go on the other couch but it was cute for the picture)

 I love the way it turned out!

It's also Christmas Eve and Bryce was supposed to work all day but he was throwing up last night and is now conked out on the couch. I was watching Christmas with the Kranks earlier, but I was all alone. I'm trying to wake him up but it's no use. I think I will go bake some Rolo Cookies to eat...by myself.


Merry Christmas!


Love, Jordyn
