there & back

hello, friends!

oh my, life has been busy, busy, busy these days.

we were actually out of the country for the past 2 weeks

(my first international trip, eek!)

travelling to Singapore & Perth, Australia.

it was quite the trip, and I'm so thankful we got to go.

I'll be sharing some highlights & pictures over the next couple weeks!

in the meantime, hope you all are doing well.

this month is sure to be a very busy one,

but my goal is to check in here more often.

happy Monday & hello to a new week!

life lately // Feb. 6th

{a little peek into my world via my instagram profile}

All I can say is, January flew by.

My intentions were to get back into

regular blogging in the new year,

but I guess this new month is close

enough.

So, here I am. My life lately?

 >> I started a new job (working for my husband) in December. I only work part time, in the mornings, and I enjoy it. I get to see my husband more, which is a big bonus for me, plus I'm not at home by myself all day. I still feel like I haven't quite gotten a grip on the whole working-outside-the-home + still-keeping-everything-at-home-running, but I guess it takes time.

 >> I've been sending out lots of cards + letters to some of my "online friends". I so enjoy snail mail, don't you? :) Finding something pretty in your mailbox makes the whole day brighter!

 >> I've been spending most of my free time cleaning the house, doing dishes, hanging out with my mister, or knitting. Someday, when I finish the baby blankets I'm working on for friends, I hope to share some other creative projects.

 >> Newest goal? To finish the 30 Day Shred! The first couple days were really, really rough, but I'm determined to get through it. I haven't had as much time to go walking, so a 20 minute video is fitting into my day a little easier.

How about you? What have you been up to? I miss my bloggy friends! I'm working on blogging more consistently, so hopefully I can keep up with all of you a little more. :)

Have a lovely, wonderful Wednesday!
