If relaxing was a job, I'd be given the boot

How cute is this Mickey candle holder we bought in Disney!
How cute is the stuff I didn't move in the background to make this a nicer pic?

There are weekends I want to go absolutely nuts and Pinterest the shit out of our apartment. 

I'm talking taking advantage of the small apartment space, adding a fall decoration here, color code my closet, all while baking homemade brownies and planning my week's meals.

That. Never. Happens. 
Mainly because weekends are when we try to relax. 
And also because that scenario sounds pretty damn boring.

Kurt and I had a discussion about relaxation. Actually, we were eating at the restaurant in Nordstroms and it was more of Kurt telling me I don't know how to relax. I'm face planting into my sandwich when Kurt's all:

"Your idea of relaxation is building a house."
Oh no he di'int.

Speaking of building, he also told me I should think twice about ever volunteering for habitat for humanity because it took me about 2 minutes to hammer ONE tiny nail into the monstrous item we bought at IKEA this weekend.

It was so big it acted as a divider

Speaking of IKEA, can I tell you the horrific thoughts that go through my head when I walk through that place? Let's not forget the fact that we took Kurt's car to IKEA, got there, and realized we needed my SUV to lug this thing home.

The relaxation conversation stemmed from a conversation about honeymoons. We talked about places we'd like to go. After rattling places off I could never picture myself getting to on a plane, we collectively decided somewhere tropical, beachy, and a place we could just have fun. That's when Kurt told me I can't relax and just BE.

I'm a do-er! I'll be watching TV and think OH! Let me paint my nails! Let me stalk Facebook! Let me knit this quilt! (kidding). I just enjoy getting things done during down time, ya dig?

Are you a relaxer?
Happy Monday loves!

Trick or treat, smell my feet, gimme something good to eat






















One quick note before I begin this post

Yes I wore more than just white shorts. 
I just happened to have lots of pics on the days I wore them haha

Now that we've made that clear, have you ever been to Disney during a holiday?
It's absolutely MAGICAL! To put it simply. Disney goes ALL OUT.

We happened to be there when Disney was hosting one of Mickey's Not So Scary Halloween Party

We trick or treated, saw a special Villian's dance show, special Halloween parade and ended the night with absolutely AMAZING Halloween fireworks! Disney never freakin disappoints.

Trick or treating though. Holy Eff. What a blast!! We felt so young and aliiiiiive!
Excitedly bouncing from one trick or treat location to the next
Filling our candy bags with everything. Even mini Halloween PEEPS!

Granted, we should have taken a child for the night so the staff 
would have given us bigger handfuls of candy

I kid I kid.

Anyway, the Magic Kingdoms Halloween and fall decorations were un-real, as you can see!

Can I go back NOOOWWW??!!

Happy Friday! I'm going to convince Kurt to plan a Disney trip during Christmas time. MUAHA

Disney World has my whole heart






















You may or may not know, I was just in Disney World for a week!

DISNEY FREAKING WORLD!
One of my favorite places in the entire world

To say we had a blast is an understatement.

I would marry Disney if I could. 
And I just might if I don't marry Kurt soon.

So nope, there were no proposals in front of Cinderella's castle. DAMN!

Anyway, I took over 1500 photos which I won't flood you with, 
so I picked out some of my favorites above.

I am going to post one more Disney post later this week about how we were 7 years old and trick or treated around the Magic Kingdom with the biggest smiles on our face. 

We did it all! 

All the parks. Blizzard Beach. Downtown Disney. Cirque Du Soleil

We ate our hearts out with delicious food 

Slumbered in the gorgeous Beach Club Resort

Shopped till we dropped

We are legit Disney fanatic freak-a-zoids and I wouldn't have it any other way!

More to come! And a video :-)

I'll leave you with Kurt's rendition of a pirate...

Awkward and Awesome: Tampons and Drunk Kurt

I've seen a lot of awkward and awesome posts floating through blogland.

Awkward
-- Admitting to my friends the first time I tried a tampon I put the entire thing in, plastic applicator and all

-- Waking up to myself feeling myself up

-- Going to great lengths to hide from someone you know when clearly they saw you

-- This photo I found on my phone while cleaning up some pics



Awesome
-- Kurt asking me to make him a Jagerbomb the other night, and I put in half a cup of Jager and a liiiitttle bit of red bull. Needless to say our Monday night was eventful in the sense that manly man Kurt was a ball of giggles

-- Pretty Little Liars. NUFF SAID. I can't get enough, therefore I have become one with my couch the past few days. Just started season 2!

-- These mini hamburger cupcakes my friend and I made for a bake-off at work. Seriously what'll they think of next?


-- The person who made celebrities look like "normal people" in this article. I mean, look at Jay-Z and Bee-yonce. If they were my normal next door neighbors, I could see us hangin'.



Anything awkward or awesome to tell me? I love juicy stuff!!
