Inspirations of Late

Before I go all crazy Christmas lady on you, I wanted to share some images I've seen lately that I absolutely cannot get out of my head.  I picture these images whilst choreographing a dance routine to Kylie Minogue's <i>Can't Get You Outta My Head</i>.  For the record, my brain is in a constant state of choreography in addition to the images of Christmas, Edward's cute ham-hock legs, puppies and pretty decor rotating around up there.  So if anyone is ever wondering why I'm so spacey sometimes, that's why.  It's a lot. <br /><br />Good God that door is beautiful!  That's what the entrance to Heaven will look like for me. <br /><br /><table align="center" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" class="tr-caption-container" style="margin-left: auto;

(obviously if you're me, you start a blog about it and then write weird things in the white space)<br /><br />I'm almost finished putting up Christmas decorations! Also, we are painting the basement and I took a peek and I'm so in love with it. I'm having them paint everything Benjamin Moore Sage Tint - trim, doors and walls.  I could eat the paint I love it so much. Kip wasn't too sure about it, but I said, "trust me, my love, it will look amazeballs." (just kidding, I don't talk like that, I'm in a weird mood)  I'll share some sneak peeks on <a href="https://www.facebook.com/belclairehouse">Facebook</a> this afternoon! Have a loverly day!

How awesome is that pumpkin?  I love pumpkin everything and a french blue pumpkin is pretty much the greatest thing ever.  Apparently, it's orange on the inside.  I bet it's beautiful when it's cut open.  I'm still a little under the weather.  I spent my entire trip to Dallas indoors and on the sofa.  At least, I had people to play with Edward! It's nice to be home though.  Edward's all about business with his toys.  He's walking around with this serious expression like he's the boss of the place. Ok, he is.  Have a lovely weekend!

I have potential to spend way too much time online looking for this room, so I'm going to go ahead and move on and hope that fate will bring us back together again, kind of like the movie <i><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0240890/">Serendipity</a>. </i> I'm conducting business from my bed (a.k.a. The Nest) today as we have a a blanket of snow outside and I have a sick little one who needs lots of cuddles.
