Mummy Madness!

I baked cupcakes today! I made them in to mummies to celebrate my favorite holiday ever! I try not to make too many treats this time of year, because I definetly don't need to eat them, but there are so many cute ideas out there for cupcakes. I won't be sending any your way Mom, sorry I don't think they'd make the trip in one piece.
This is obviously why I don't make cupcakes often!
I also whipped up a batch of very spicy Turkey Chilli and some corn bread muffins.
I think I'm done cooking for awhile.
We had a busy weekend. Friday night, Tim, Eric and I went to our last Mariner's game with Mindy, Phil, and their friends.
It was a great time, and wish we could have come home with a W, but it was nice to see the boys on the field one last time.
Saturday morning Eric and I woke up and watched "house of 1000 corpses", a Rob Zombie movie that is pretty gross actually. Then I went and gallivanted the afternoon away with Katherine and then Tim, Kat, Eric and I went out to eat at our favorite Indian food spot. We ate for quite awhile because the service was a little slower than normal.
But it was a good time to hang out with Tim and Katherine.
Sunday is always full of football in the fall. I went to the grocery store and got a few things to make my goodies and came home and got to work. I uploaded a few pictures to facebook and then we took Aquaman for a walk in the park after watching the Mariners take home their 85th win of the season.
It was a great weekend, I'm not ready for Monday quite yet, but I'll get there I'm sure.
All my Love, Abby

The Wreath

It all started with Pinterest - yes, that rant about Pinterest still stands, but this was inspired from there. I wanted to recreate a wreath of bulbs, I hate buying wreaths since they expire year after year, this one will hang in my home for a LONG time, possibly till I die... that is how much I love how it turned out! So, being my crafty (and somewhat frugal) self, I set off to find the materials to make it. Finding that bulbs are not quite as cheap as you'd expect, I found them for 80% off.  This wreath, at cost would have run me about $125. ACK! I made it for under 35%! So pretty! So pleased! Many have asked me to make one for them - my answer - you buy the bulbs and materials and I'll glue it together!

My Happy Place

I have a lot of happy space in my world - but the happiest of all is Marvista Park in Normandy Park, just a few short miles from my house. It's the one place where I can go, be a kid, and then feel completely refreshed afterwards. Vacation is coming... T minus a few weeks now, and I feel like I've earned the crap out of it this year! But until then, a weekly trip to my happy place with the furry one should do it!  I love his little feet trying to take on the leaves! So cute.

8 Years Ago Today...

 8 Years ago today... I was in the Kent/Des Moines Park and Ride puking in the bushes because I was SO Nervous about my first day at KMS. I didn't know If I could hack it in the big city. I didn't know a thing about being a Receptionist, and I didn't even know what a Broker/Dealer was, but I swallowed the lump in my throat and decided to take it head on. I've learned SO MUCH - an Immeasurable amount of life and work lessons from my 8 years at KMS, and I could muse all day long about the Farm Fresh 22 year old you see to the left and how naive she was. KMS has given me a gift of balancing a work life and a home life and still being able to give my 110% when I'm at work without losing my balance. When I walked in the door this morning, my co-workers had created this celebration from me, and after they arrived, it got bigger with gifts, and notes, and cards, and decorations. They wanted to celebrate me, and my achievements here, though If they would have kn...
