happy little things #9

aaahh, my weekend has begun and i can't tell you how much this week has kicked my arse! this weekend will be spent, finishing up a tattoo design for a lovely little lady, updating my flicker portfolio, visiting home depot, hunting for the perfect piece next to our desk and then last but not least a 80 mile bike ride saturday morning! sounds like a lot right, you bet it is and i am soooooooo looking forward to it ALL!
 a few weekends ago, while at the store, i sited some ranunculus bulbs and quickly got in line to purchase them and this last weekend i planted them! it was the perfect time to plant and come summer they will be bursting from the earth full of color.  our little front yard needs a bit of color as it is currently all succulents and poppies. i can't wait.
tom got me these red ranunculus' for valentines day. they are one of my favorite flowers. i wanted orange ones for our wedding but they weren't going to be in season which almost made me reschedule the whole thing! hehe.... but we made it work ;)
this is a mixed box of colors so i am more then excited to see what pops up! it will be even more exciting because by the time they are blooming my poppies will be too, making our front yard a great destination for hummingbirds, bees and butterflies, yay! another reason why i love spring and sumer oh so much.

spring riding

happy hump day! thanks everyone for being so wonderful and letting me vent on my last post! i feel so blessed to have your support!!! i wish i could give you all big bear hugs!



spring is here and that means bare legs & florals for me!...well...i wear florals all year round but it is just more exciting wearing them when the sun is out! this is my outfit that i wore this weekend to work. majority of this outfit is thrifted except for the scarf that my sister in law made for the mister but i stole it and it is now mine :D inifity scarfs are my favorite because they won't fly off while riding and if you wear head phones when riding i typically pull the cord through the scarf so that if the ear plugs fall out which they often do when i ride they won't dangle below my legs and get caught in something.



please excuse this a** picture but it is sometimes nice to see what my skirt looks like from behind!

this outfit is so easy to ride in because there is nothing constricting me. the skirt is so flowy and really a great skirt to ride in. the denim jacket is also great to ride in because it is light weight and breathable




 this picture makes me sad because i wanted to go to this trial interview but i also didn't want to go because it meant sacrificing my weekend and hanging with the mister...hopefully it pays off :)
