sisters, sisters, there were never such devoted sisters...

I went over to my sister's for a movie night, oh, about three months ago, and never blogged about it :) We watched "I Don't Know How She Does It", which is a super good movie, and I highly recommend it.
Micah entertained us for a while until he went to bed. Isn't he the cutest?!
We then decided to try out the new Biore charcoal self-warming masks. I don't think they did anything, but the self-heating thing was pretty cool. 

It's super nice having my sister live literally three minutes away. We've recently started scheduling every other Thursday night as movie night. Rebecca, myself, and another friend of ours rotates between who hosts the movie night, makes the treats, and chooses the movie. It's just a nice way to make sure we get out of the house and hang out with friends. And I don't know about you, but I need my girl time.

In the past couple of days, I've had some extra time for reading, which NEVER happens :) Tim bought me Mindy's book for Christmas. I've loved Mindy since she was in/wrote episodes of "The Office", and her book was written exactly like how she talks. It was hilarious. Tim also (jokingly) grabbed "sand in My Bra" at a library book sale and said I should get it, not realizing that I actually did want to read it haha! So thanks to him, I was able to read both of them :) "Sand in my bra" is a compilation of 25 or so stories by different women that have traveled. They're quite funny stories, and it just confirmed to me that I need to do a ton of traveling in my life. So I have have my own funny stories :)
 I made ham and potato soup this week-this is the BEST recipe ever. It's so great. And it tastes even better as leftovers :)


I went to Goodwill after work today---isn't that cat picture kinda creepy? Don't worry, I didn't buy it. I did purchase all the books on the right though, for like $4 :)
I ended my day with "You've Got Mail". This will definitely be a movie that never goes out of "style". It's a classic. So cute.

Tomorrow Tim and I are taking a trip up to Traverse City for some shopping :) I'm excited to not only get some new work clothes (fingers crossed!) and possibly some wedding decor, but also to eat some fantastic food! Hope you enjoy your day tomorrow :)

i sleep weird.

I've been told by Tim that I look mad when I sleep. My face just fully relaxes, my lips puff out, and I get a crease between my eyebrows that make me look mad.  He says I have monkey lips…and according to the below picture, apparently I have super puffy eyelids…so gorgeous...
If you were to look at the photos Tim has taken on his phone, you'd notice pretty much the only pictures of me are when I'm sleeping…creepy? hmmmmm….
I also have the most beautiful double chin when I sleep. No wonder why he takes so many photos! I look so awesome! (Don't mind the mess in the above photo, just look at the cute kitty laying by me)
Apparently I was cold, so Tim put some pillows on top of my blankets to keep me warm?

Does your boyfriend/fiancé/husband do anything like this? haha

i scream for ice cream…and cookies… and any other baked good...

I made these cookies a while back--I was making oatmeal chocolate chip cookies but decided it needed more. So I started added stuff: you know, all the important things like m&ms and chocolate chunks…mmmmmm!
After they came out of the oven, I was like, "Hmmmmm….these are good, but what I can I do to make them even better???" So I decided to make ice cream sandwiches :) I swear, you can be eating either the worst or best cookie, and a layer of ice cream will make it SUPER AWESOME!
You could probably even burn your cookies, and it'd still taste good. Next time you're making cookies, do yourself a favor, and add some extra ingredients. You're welcome.
