Sorry about the radio silence....


Ok what the heck happened?! How did we fast forward to April so fast?!
The last time I posted was exactly 3 months ago...
And I apologize.
Mainly to myself because I really wanted to commit to blogging.
BUT....I'm back and here to stay :)
When we got back from Jamaica everything got a little crazy.
Ryan left for a work thing the week after we got back for 6 weeks. 
6 WEEKS!! 
And I started a new job that pretty much has been sucking the life out of me since.
What doesn't help is that my commute to work is an hour :( 
That REALLY super sucks.   

Besides all that work stuff getting in the way of life...
life is great!! 
We've been traveling to a lot of new little towns here in TX,
we've been riding our bikes every chance we get, 
I got 2 new books that I am obsesssssssed with,
oh! we also discovered 2 super delicious German bakeries very close to where we live,
Annnnnnnnd...most exciting...
we're going to Iceland at the end of June!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Isn't it beautiful and magical?! Eeeee!! I can't wait!
It will be crazy to go from 100 degrees of unbearable heat to some cool 50 degree weather. 
Speaking of weather...
I am pretty confused with the seasons right now. 
I THOUGHT it was spring, but apparently I was wrong. 
Oh my gosh it's cold today!! 
And it's raining. Again. 
I am still in Texas right?!

Well I'm so happy to be back blogging. 
I hope everyone is having a great week so far..
Hopefully this time around I don't disappear for months at a time ;)

p.s.
Here are some fun pics from our Jamaica trip...THREE MONTHS AGO

























xo,
Krista

Jamaica!!!!


WE'RE GOING TO JAMAICA!!!!!
Tomorrow!!!!
I don't know why I never mentioned it....
But I'm sooooooo excited!! It's gonna be amazing!!


Last April we went to Costa Rica.  It was so much fun!!

But let me just clear something up :)
We aren't the typical traveler...
We don't stay in resorts.
We're sort of hardcore travelers.
We rent a car and drive all over.
We stay in random little guesthouses and b&b's.

If you've never done it...you should definitely try it. It's such an amazing experience.
Here are a few (we literally have hundred's) pics from our Costa Rica trip....

This is the type of places we stay :)
Here's another example....and hey...that's our rental car!! :)
These places are not for every body. But it's fun!! And you really get to interact with the people and learn and experience way more than you ever would stuck in some resort. Annnnd...I'm a high maintenance, prissy, girly girl, foo foo face and I do it...so I think everyone can. haha!!



We have one of these bags (the one that says Monteverde Costa Rica) framed and hanging in our living room






Have you guys ever been to Costa Rica or Jamaica?? Let me know!!
Have an awesome weekend!!
See you in 10 days!!!!!!!!!

Painted Toilets?!

Wow! Are we really already 10 days in to 2013!?!
I can't believe it.
Even tho this is beyond late...HAPPY NEW YEAR!!
Hope everyone had an amazing new years!!
For new years Ryan and I took a lil trip down to Corpus Christi...we had a blast!
Here's just a few pictures from our trip :)


On our way down to Corpus Chrisit we stopped at this little winery. I thought the building was so cute!! Very Texas :)


There's something about this picture that is just so beautiful to me.




Since we were so close to Mexico...we decided to hop on over for a couple hours and have some lunch.



These tacos were honestly some of THE BEST tacos I've ever had!!


Um...how scary is this mask!? Yikes! I loved this store tho...I wanted so many things!!


I'd really love to know if anyone has one of these in their home. I mean....wow.




Have you guys ever seen a painted toilet in anyone's house before??
Hope everyone's year is going well so far ;)

Christmas Morning

I hope everyone had an awesome Christmas!!
It was once again just Ryan and I for Christmas.
We celebrated a mini Christmas with his family while we were in NC.
We had originally wanted to drive to AZ to see my fam...
but we would've had to drive back on Christmas day :(
and anyway...12 hours of driving just didn't sound very fun.
 
Here's just a lil peek into our morning :)
 
 
Stocking stuffer bracelets!! I love them!!
Ry's stocking stuffers ;)



Typical man wrapping :) haha!!

LOVE my new boots!!!

New knobs for my dresser....yay!!

Yeah...I know you're checkig out the Biebs ;)


 
Merry late Christmas!!!
