the weekend


the husbando gets every other friday off. it rocks the casbah. another long weekend of getting things off the to-do list. those of you privy to the life & times of kathryn will know. i am a list person. i love nothing more than putting that check down after i've scrimped & worked to finish something. austin gets a kick out of it cause i oft times put things like 'start the dishwasher' on my list just to have the satisfaction of that wonderful little mark. but you know when those mundane, chore filled, quiet days are randomly hilarious & cheery? playing music louder than our neighbors want while waiting for comcast, window shopping in the poshest santana row, & competing for the faster jeopardy answers wee into the night just the two of us. love it!

ellery has this awesome mackenzie-childs black & white lamp in her room & i wanted to change out the standard drawer pulls on her dresser with mismatched, funky ones to match the lamp. problem being this: the matching knobs at m-c's go @ about 25 bucks a pop. okay. her dresser has 12 existing knobs. veto. so chief & i went to anthropologie (oooo, i likey!) & picked out these fun new knobs! i know he could not have cared less but he totally acted interested, which is always a bonus.

which brings me to sunday morning: i went to make aust a big, hardy breakfast (a perk of dreaded 1 o'clock church) & tried to grab an egg from the carton. tried being the operative. the shell came. the egg did not. it was the weirdest thing. so naturally i used the eggs in a subsequent line in order to tilt the whole case & dish the egg from slot to slot finally making it to the pan. ran-dom.

lists are the best! So is anthropologie but i have only made one purchase from there in my life and it was a hat. it was so fun to skype with you guys! the apartment looks great and Ellery is changing so much! she looks a TON like austin now, I think. Welp- thanks for posting on your blog I really do love to read it! love, Kelli!
PS- you should fly down in october to run the marathon with us. I have a training schedule if you want me to send it so you can see what you'd be getting yourself into. it's REALLY not that bad if you take it one day at a time. pretty please?
