Bride, Bingo and Babies

 Still can't believe we've lived back in ND since July! The time is flying and I'm sure it has something to do with me keeping busy as a little bee with the Internet, I'm slightly obsessed!
Here's a little recap via Instagram, hence the grainy pics...but you've gotta love the convenience factor.

We took a roadtrip to the Tri-State area for a wedding, my hubby's relatives live in all three states. It was nice to see who we could and let the kids hang with two of their Great Grandma's. 


 Of course you can't have a road trip without these necessities, Starbucks and Chocolate....need I say more?


my hunky date for the wedding, isn't he a dreamy?!


the outfit...and yes, I pulled off "Footloose" dancing in those heels


The Stunning Bride and Handsome Groom
(we've got another lady Braun in the family, yipee)


I snuck out one night to play BINGO with my hubs Gma Toots. She's in her 90's and as quick as a whip! We both got lucky too, so fun!


We took a different drive back to Minot stopping by our old house in Grand Forks, she still stands red, tall and proud with a new fence too...great memories!!


and of course filling Etsy shop orders


What have you all been up to?

Mug Swap with Heatherly Loves


I had so much fun with a mug swap last month, I signed up for TWO this month! 
I was given the lovely Rose, who blogs over at A Rosie Sweet Home, as my secret stalker. After reading her sweet love story and checking out her Blog and Pinterest, I knew I had to find something soft, pretty and to match her sweet personality. I forgot to take a picture of her mug before I mailed it, oops!
But this snazzy mug arrived in the mail, holding the surprise of who sent it. Of course, my hubby wanted to stake his claim on it, so I told him Staches off to you if you can snag it first in the morning, hehe! I just love all the different staches and who used to wear them, so cool!
I did get a blog comment asking if I had received my mustache mug, from the wonderful Rose, I didn't realize we had gotten each other! Thanks again, I LOVE it!!
