eggs, chorizo, tortillas & coffee.

so since i am "unemployed" right now i have been living a very house-wife life & i actually really like it. i have been making breakfast, lunch, dinner, cleaning all sorts of things, sewing pillows, planning creative shoots with my sister, finishing a dress i have been working on for about 2 weeks, folding laundry, having marshmallow roast in the backyard on a blanket with some of my closest friends, & everything else you can imagine.

this was today's breakfast.

needless to say minus not having my husband there it was amazing. 

i have a fond appreciation for chorizo. yummy!

other things going on in my life:

planning a christmas santa shoot complete with snow.

planning some things to raise money for a haiti trip.

working with my sister with some business ventures.

sewing children's scarves (they are for sale) with ashlan.

working with my mom on a few projects.

see. i am a busy girl.

on another side not i would like to just give a huge THANK YOU to the people who have been such good friends. i feel like some people come & go in life. some stick around for quite some time & you create such a bond with them that you become so thankful for, they become life family. i don't need to name them because they know who they are. there are some people who come in your life & impact you in such a way & then your lives get busy & you don't see them as often- to all of those i miss you. 

please say a prayer for us, trying to plan a trip to haiti is really exciting & makes me a little nervous. it will be a lot different than other trips i have been on, but i miss haiti so much, & my sweet wilderson. 

cheers,

mrs. estes

birthday part 2.

this past weekend we continued our celebration of the misters 31st birthday.

he had a meeting that afternoon for a potential job so i cleaned up the house because i knew we had some guests coming over. i have had this table my mom gave me sitting in my living room taking up space for the longest time. we live in a tiny apartment right now and extra space is a luxury. i posted the picture on facebook (why did i not think of this before) & within minutes my dear friend said she would trade me the table for a 25% discount at her store. i have been wanting to go so bad & i have not had the time so this gives me the extra little push.

check her store, "the byrd's box" out here & go buy something cute.

when the hubs got back we watched one of our favorite shows, "the following" (it is incredible) & just had some quality time. we went to el escorpion for dinner with family & friends. the food there is amazing- i had the grilled shrimp tacos and their version of texas margaritas. my sister was able to make it which made me happy & so did my mom & step dad.

everyone came back to the house after dinner to have a slice of the BEST cheesecake made by my mom. if you are ever in need of amazing food or deserts in general please let me know. i will hook you up.

yesterday was a "off" day for the husband which made me happy. we stopped by starbucks to get our usual's and then headed to his parents for a day at the pool, which ended about 1hr in. because of the the rain. seriously rain ruins my life every pool day i get. every. single. one.

over all it was a good birthday for him & as far as presents goes he is buying a bunch of guitar gear which makes him happy and me happy as well. it is all about "the tone" you guys. 

i hope you all had a fantastic weekend- regarding pictures i decided to leave the camera at home. i just wanted to soak up all the moments & just have them to hold onto in my heart and in my brain. 

cheers,

Mrs. Estes
