Wednesday Wish List
Accessories are slowly making their way into my closet as the need to change up daily outfits becomes necessary. As a simple girl, a top & pants is my usual go-to, but who wants to wear the same thing on a week's rotation? Not me!
Anthropologie's Tea Rose Belt is a great solution when you want to add something to your everyday outfit, but still keep it relatively simple. And for under $30, this is an easy purchase that will transform a number of pieces in your closet.

Weekend Recap
- This weekend marked the beginning of a string of busy weekends.
- Friday brought Matt & Krista (Sam's brother & brothers' girlfriend) to stay the night at our house.
- We made potato soup & homemade bread (yum!) .
- And followed it up with brownies & ice cream while watching The Dark Knight.
- Saturday came early...
- Krista & I were on the road to George Fox by 8am.
- We were meeting Donna & Laura (MIL & SIL) at George Fox for the 6th annual Selah Conference.
- An overall great day filled with over 700 women listening to several speakers speak on the subject of change.
- Very impacting & powerful!
- Pizza & movies were on the agenda for Saturday night.
- Plus a great phone conversation with my mom.
- I love her!
- Sunday = lazy day.
- We skipped church (sorry God) and opted to work on the last of our home projects before the weather changes.
- We weeded, mowed, organized the garage, cleaned off the front porch, and vacuumed the house (upstairs & downstairs) .
- I also dropped off books & picked up a few more from Kali.
- She's like my own personal library :)
- Then it was Sunday night and the weekend was over.
Upcoming (busy) weekends include: visiting Portland to see two of my best friends, having dental surgery, going to Bend to see my mom, and carving pumpkins with the Grables. It feels like a lot, but I'm excited to do it all!

You can find me... at the dentist?
So as I mentioned here , my teeth are once again keeping me from living a happy, dentist-free life. From age 10 to 18, I spent a couple hours a month visiting some form of dentist. You name it, and I’ve had it done: Braces. Wisdom teeth removal. Retainers galore. And yet, my mouth STILL needs work!
It has been a couple years since my last dentist appointment (yes, bad me!) , but between graduating college, going to India, planning a wedding, and moving to a new town (not to mention just sick of the dentist in general) , the dentist was not far up on my list. I finally decided it was time to go and made an appointment for both Sam & I. Sam passed with flying colors, but I will be going back to the dentist as frequently as our insurance will pay for.
I won’t go into too much detail of what my future dentist appointments will entail, but basically I need a (second) route canal, several cavities filled, and a mouth guard for sleeping to just name a few of the procedures. Plus, on top of those, I also have to have 5 gum surgeries so that my teeth don’t fall out completely. Fortunately, the surgery will not be as bad as I pictured (I thought I’d have to have my mouth wired shut for several weeks…) and I really like the dentist who will do the procedure!
Nonetheless, I will once again become a reoccurring visitor to the dentist. Will this ever end?
