Small Treasure Tuesdays

Michael and I are moving soon... We're pretty excitedWe'll be moving just a few blocks away from where we are now, into Michael's parents basement apartment. 
I'll put up pics soon.It's really cute!
There's only one bedroom instead of the two we have now, but it has a small room that comes off of it and the living room is about twice the size of the one we have now, which is awesome! The kitchen has more cupboards though it doesn't have a separate dining room which is totally fine because we can fit a table in the kitchen.
My treasure today is the new dining room table we got for our new place!The one we have now is too wide to fit comfortably in our kitchen so we got this new one from Ikea, and we are pretty excited about it :-)

It has drawers on both sides, and it fold up nice and small

 And you can lift up one side at a time, or both! It can seat up to 6 people.

What's your treasure today?

Small Treasure Tuesdays

You're probably staring at your computer screen in shock right now. I understand. You probably thought you'd never see this meme again!But I'm back... I'm trying to be :-)
I've missed blogging. I've missed reading your comments and commenting on your blogs.I've missed reading your Small Treasure posts.
That's the main reason I wanted to start blogging more frequently again, because I think it's so important to appreciate the little things. Having this meme makes me do it, and reading your posts brightens my day!
So here we are!
There aren't any rules with Small Treasure Tuesdays I just ask that you share your post here so we can all read itI hope that you'll link back here so other people can get involved (you can do that by including my button ;-)And please read (and if you feel so inclined, comment) on other posts to spread the love That's it! :-)

The treasure I'm sharing today is the newest addition to the Magistro family

Ashlyn Nicole Here she is with her proud Mamma and Pappa

 She is such a doll. We all love her already!

 Elisa (the mamma) is the first of Michael's sisters to have a baby, it's pretty exciting!

Look at all that hair! in these photos she's about 12 hours old.
She is 5 weeks old now! I haven't spent a lot of time with her yet, but I have been able to see her smile and hear her laugh :)
What's your treasure today?It can be as long or as short as you want; it can be anything!

I knew this would happen... as soon as my photo challenge ended I've gone a whole week without blogging. I'm going to have to work on that :-)
This week I'm sharing ten blogs that make me smile (in no particular order):1 1/3. Life in the Pitts, 1 2/3. The Kaiser Two, 1 3/3. Amber's Blog2. NieNie Dialogues 3. Adventures in Love and Happiness4. You are my Fave5. Those Northern Skies6. View From Down Here7. Smacksy8. My New Life as a Housewife9. Hyperbole and a Half10. Color Me Katie
Yeah, I cheated and put 12, but I figured if my sisters blogs were under the same number it would count :-) What are some blogs that make you smile?

My Treasure is that it is the last day in my photo challenge... which is also kind of sad.I was doing so well up until the end, but even though my posts didn't always make it on time, they always made it. :)
I hope you guys enjoyed following my challenge. Let me know if you do it too!
So the last prompt is a photo of the place you would like to live out your days.

We really like Utah a lot, and we love St George. We would like to travel around, and I of course want to visit Michigan (where I grew up) but we would be perfectly happy to live out our days in Utah 

But wherever we are, as long as we're together, I'm home :-)

And my treasure is also todays photo prompt.A picture of a place you'd like to travelI love to travel. It's so fun! Especially with Michael :-)

Ireland. I would love to walk through a castle.

I would love to go on a cruise to the Caribbean

and on a cruise to Alaska. Michael has been on a cruise to Alaska before, the pictures were gorgeous and he loved it.
I've wanted to visit those places, possibly the longest. They would be so much fun! Especially on a cruise ;-) 
But right now, what I really want to do is travel to St. George and have some delicious fondue :-D

Small Treasure Tuesdays

Hi everyone.
I'm not feeling like my normal exuberant self, I simply am feeling drained.I feel like I've been violated, picked on, humiliated and manipulated.
I'm in desperate need of reading your treasures, and I need to think about my own small treasures. It's important for me to not get defeated so that I remember I am not guilty, and so that I keep fighting for the grade I deserve. 
So, you know the drill (and I don't feel like copying my normal spiel) Link up your post in the comments, it can be anything that is a treasure to you!Anything at all. No pressure for a long post, or anything.And I would also encourage you to read other peoples posts, because they are all really good.
I'm glad I have this photo challenge going on, so I can use todays challenge as my treasure.
The challenge today is a photo of something that means a lot to you.And so even if I didn't have this challenge I think it would be the same thing: 

The way my husband and family have confidence in me, know who I am and are willing to help me with this battle of accused plagiarism.
So, write up a post and leave the link in the comments, and I will add it to the bottom of this post!Please? I need to read happy things today :)

My treasure is, of course, my photo for the day :-)
The challenge today is a habit you wish you didn't have, and normally that wouldn't be a treasure, but I take it as a challenge to change. And I am working hard to improve, and to me, that makes it a treasure :-D
The habits I wish I didn't have the most are procrastinating and biting/picking at my nails

But like I said, my treasure is that I am working on changing these habits, and I've been seeing improvements :-) The hardest part is finding something else to fidget with instead of my nails ;-P

Today my treasure is prompted by the photo challenge, which is a photo of someone you could not imagine your life without.
Of course I could answer this as my husband, or my family, but again, I wanted to do something different.Otherwise just about every picture would be of Michael ;-)
So, I'm going to show some people whose work helped to shape me into who I am today. Without them, I would be a completely different person.

The people I chose, the ones I think I would be the most different without (excluding my husband, family and friends of course) are:
Joseph Smith -without him I might not have the church that I belong to, and it has truly shaped me into the woman I am todayJane Austen -she, and other authors, are a large reason why I want to major in creative writing. Her books also helped me to appreciate the English languageJ.K. Rowling -I cannot imagine not having the Harry Potter books. They taught me to really love reading, and they've helped to expand my imaginationWalt Disney -I also can't imagine not growing up with the Disney movies and characters that we all know and love, they too helped me to expand my mind and think outside the box
I'm giving an honorable mention to Lucy Maud Montgomery, she and many other authors could also be attributed to my love of reading and desire to write.
They are all my treasure this week. :-)

Michael and I come across many things that we find humorous, and so I try to keep my camera on me so we can take photos and have a laugh another day as well :-)

 Here are some of the ones that always make me laugh

I didn't take this one, but the longer I look at it the funnier it gets
I'd love to see a picture that makes you laugh! If you write a post about it be sure to let me know :-)

My treasure today is that it's Day 2 in my photo challenge!
Today's prompt is A picture of the person you're the closest to.

 Michael is my best friend, and I love him dearly. I honestly could not imagine a better eternal companion for me. I'm more comfortable with him than I've ever been with anyone. I can tell him anything, and I know I never have to worry about him judging me. As corny as it may sound, he completes me, he's my other half :-D

My treasure this week is that I got an A in my intermediate writing class!98%, and I'm pretty dang proud.
My teacher has stated that he sees a C grade as meaning you followed the assignment description, a B means you went above and beyond, and he never gives out A's... 
On my first paper in this class I received a C. and man was I bummed. But needless to say, my spirits have been lifted! :-D

Also Michaels birthday is this weekend :-)My friend Rebecca had a great idea of a fun little thing to do for him on his birthday, so a break will also give us more time to finish planning... I'll give you the details of what we're planning after the fact, just in case Michael reads this
