Chic Critique Cover Contest Entry

Because why not? Why not enter the Chic Critique Cover Contest? I mean, I only just found out about it today and the deadline is midnight tonight...why not? Now that I'm subscribed to their newsletter and "like"ing them on Facebook I might actually find out about the next one earlier to submit another image! 

There are some pretty  images over there. Here's my entry and the model is my lovely sister in law: 

I've been a really lousy blogger lately. I'll come back soon. For real. 

My Kitchen: A Pink Wall

Guys. Remember this pink wall from my ridiculous pictures/confession yesterday?  Well,we painted our kitchen wall pink!

I got carried away (?) and decided that we are going to re-do the dining room, and painted a wall in there pink too! (That's where I took the pictures.) Anyway, "re-do" means I'm painting the ceiling white and the walls gray. Yes. I can't wait. 

My Confessions

Sometimes I sleepwalk.

So weird, right? It freaks me out.

Like this one time I went to girls camp. I remember waking up and wondering why my sleeping bag was so fetching cold. Then I fell back asleep.

In the morning my mom asked, "where did you go last night?" And I looked at her all like:

She continued, "you got up and left and were gone for awhile..."

I didn't remember anything. I still don't, except that my sleeping bag was really fetching cold when I came back from wherever I was. I could have been eaten by an animal! I could have died!!!

Then this other time, I went to the city of sin. That's right, Las Vegas. I think my friends and I were celebrating a birthday. Anyway, we all shared a hotel room and I remember getting up one night to go to the bathroom and then getting back in bed.

In the morning my friend asked, "so where'd you go last night?" And I looked at her all like:

And I said, "to the bathroom....?"

She continued, "you took the key off the table and left the room..."

I don't remember anything except for getting up to go to the bathroom. I could have been snatched and sold into a brothel! I could have died!!!!!

This morning I woke up and our bedroom window was open. Nathanael didn't do it, unless he was asleep, but given the fact that I am prone to doing things in my sleep and he is not, it was probably me. I wondered why the coyotes were so loud this morning. Good thing is, as far as we know, I didn't go anywhere. 

I think. 

Some Nature, Some Deer

Sometimes, living in the middle of nowhere makes me want to rip my hair out, but most times, it's pretty okay. Especially when deer make a habit of chilling in your backyard. I snapped a couple of pictures of them the other day from Caeden's bedroom window. We think they were all bucks. Soooo neat!

I climbed out onto the roof to get the last picture of the deer, then hollered at Mossberg, and this is the pic I got of him running to find me. Totally adorable.
