first snow of 2016

theres not much that i love more than a good snow. i pray every snow will be like the blizzard of '93. i remember my brother and i making a bobsled course through the landscaped hill that was TO DIE FOR. we had gone over the same exact spot so many times that it was a sheet of ice. we even built an igloo. our parents say we lost power and stuff like that, but i only remember how much fun we had. one  of my best childhood memories…but alas, every snow is always only about 3" or less. its always lame, but i take what i can get here. 

so anyways, cal was supposed to be going to kentucky the day we got our first little snow. first snow in our new house, i should add. i was so disappointed. i HATE when cal has to be out of town and was begging friends to come over and drink rosé with me. haha. he ended up not being able to get to kentucky because of the weather and i was THRILLED that he turned around and came back. we all rejoiced because now i didn't have to take the kids out to play one at a time. hahaha. simms LOVED the snow. ellis LOVED the snow. vance touched it and cried for about 15 minutes. good ole vancearoni and cheese. cal claims he's just like me but um.. i love snow.

last night, winter storm jonas was supposed to hit us. the weathermen didn't seem to know what it was going to do, which always makes me nervous…so of course we stocked up on THE TO DIE FOR moonshine mountain cookies (if you live in knoxville, its brand new and in the shopping center by doc's all american grill) then ran to the store so we wouldn't be stranded without lunch and dinner. i kid you not, there were maybe 4 loaves of bread left in the bread aisle. so we got what we needed, grabbed some chinese food, and headed home to watch the revenant and the h8ful eight (shout out to aaron for loaning them to me!)

we hardly got a dusting this round, while literally everywhere around us got POUNDED. but again, i take what i can get around here. we were supposed to be heading to the moon taxi show tonight, but it got moved to tomorrow because of the "snow." so heres a "non fashion" outfit as cal calls it…."non fashion" is apparently his favorite :| hopefully i can redeem myself with a "fashion" outfit for the concert tomorrow.

My new default outfit...

yes i have one. for the days i don't want to think. the days i have a mount everest of laundry to do. you know the days. it used to just be leggings and a tshirt….but i've learned that makes me feel like crap about myself. I WANT TO FEEL PRETTY. even if i don't look it. ha! So if its above 40 degrees or so… heres my uniform:

So first off the leggings. I ordered a pair of faux leather leggings from zara a while ago and they are so damn hot (like temperature wise) and they kind of make me feel claustrophobic. so i'm saving them for going out…you know the 3 times a year we're out sans kids. so i was keeping my eyes peeled for a more comfortable/less hot pair. Stumbled upon these gems at target one day when i ran in for baby spoons. they're $16 and heavenly. i even wash AND dry them.
