announcing carie announcing carie where i post my favorites my wish lists my projects and pretty much anything i like thursday march 21 2013 meant to be meant to be by lauren morrill my rating 3 of 5 stars i read this book on the long flight from hawaii back to the midwest it is ya fiction similar to a sarah dessen it was perfectly adequate it takes place in london which was fun the characters are a bit unrealistic and i figured out the plot early on but that s just being overly picky when reviewing ya fiction posted by carie at 3 44 pm 6 comments perfect scoundrels perfect scoundrels by ally carter my rating 4 of 5 stars 4 stars i really liked it this is number three in the series and just as fun as the others perfectly enjoyable i give it a four but a four on the scale of ya fluffy fiction posted by carie at 3 35 pm 1 comment 52 reasons to hate my father 52 reasons to hate my father by jessica brody my rating 2 of 5 stars 2 stars it was okay i went into this book not expecting much and that pretty much sums it up p s i dropped this library book in the tub and now am the proud owner hooray posted by carie at 12 48 pm no comments death in zanzibar death in zanzibar by m m kaye my rating 3 of 5 stars fun read like unto my favorite mary stewart books a vintage mystery romance like stewart s books it has a great sense of place in this case zanzibar an island off the coast of africa which incidentally i have visited and had a terrible case of food poisoning not to brag also like stewart s books this read takes place in a bygone era of grace and charm 1950 s which lends itself to an enjoyable retro read unlike stewart s books the main character was kind of weak and helpless i prefer a more substantial lead i read this on the ko olina beach in hawaii it was the perfect compliment to lounging around in the sun view all my reviews posted by carie at 12 46 pm no comments tuesday november 13 2012 winter coats hello friends it s been awhile my apologies let s get right to it shall we i was purusing a shopping blog this morning and came across a lovely post about some adorable winter coats at target you know i m a fan of target and of coats come to think of it especially since i live in the midwest and it s nearly winter and i hate to be cold with no further ado i give you the coats here are my top 4 favorite merona wool coat with shawl colar coffee shop junior s double breasted wool military jacket xhilaration junior s ruffle coat mossimo women s collarless coat i ve seen this tiffany blue one in person the color is amazing the shape of the coat is much cuter than in target s famously awful pictures consider this if you are wearing a collarless coat you may need one of these anthropologie plush stole best part about these coats all under 60 the plush stole will run you 48 unless you have an anthropologie employee discount happy winter coat shopping did i mention i got a fantastic very part time job posted by carie at 9 32 pm 4 comments monday may 14 2012 mother s day report i know people have concerns that blogs sometimes show a skewed view of life only the happy gorgeous parts forgive me then as i brag about my amazing mother s day i was greeted in the morning by my most favorite people in the world my delicious children they surprised me with breakfast in bed one of the perks of 11 30am church this was no eat it because you don t want to hurt their feelings breakfast this was some seriously good food swedish pancakes fresh fruit orange juice next we opened presents i was spoiled let s just say my husband s love language is gift giving you ve read the five love languages by gary chapman yes one of the way my husband shows love is by giving gifts i show my love for him by accepting those gifts even if he goes a little overboard next we had lovely church services i wanted a picture of the whole family in our shiny church clothes alas they had already changed into mangy sweats so i got a picture with my husband do you love my dress i do do you remember when i told you i would buy it it finally went on sale so i did i also went all out and did a fancy bun hooray for long enough hair just barely after church i lounged on our back porch read a fun book and enjoyed some beautiful mild summer weather my family slaved away cooking my dinner incidentally my husband s love language is not necessarily acts of service but being mother s day he did a million acts of service including cleaning and cooking he s dreamy that man of mine one of the most thoughtful things my husband did was track down one of my favorite cake s from trudy s treats she is no longer selling her wares at the farmer s market so he went to her house and bought me several i have to show you the delicious center after dinner we took a walk which is one of my most favorite things to do then my two youngest worked on riding bikes she picked it up first try he has a great fear of bikes after having been run over by his older sister true story he did great but is still working on mastering the skill after family scripture reading weekly calendar planning and chatting with our moms i laid in bed and read bits and pieces from one of my all time favorites pride and prejudice perfect day i love being a mom i love my kids they are really remarkable people better then i deserve some people might not be satisfied with a life as a stay at home mom i find it completely fulfilling in every way i hope you had a happy mother s day too posted by carie at 1 20 pm 5 comments thursday may 10 2012 mother s day demands take two i only have myself to blame when i posted what i want for mother s day on my blog i some how managed to forget that my husband doesn t read my blog and wouldn t you know it the kate spade purse is now sold out i would like to think that my blog is so well read and my opinion is so revered that it sold out simply because of my recommendation a girl can dream so i am left to come up with some alternate suggestions if i must here goes there are some things i never spend money on work out clothes for example i work out 5 days a week you d think i realize that these are worth investing in nope i ve worn the same old worn out unattractive work out clothes for the last 3 years and i have to wash them a lot they have some great work out tops at old navy the red color is eternal flame which is a really dumb name for a color while we are talking about old navy they actually have some cute stuff right now it s been awhile i realize now that if i purchase all these i will look like an american flag all summer i think i can live with that back to work out clothes i need some more shorts why are all running shorts booty shorts why do the powers that be in the athletic clothing industry think that we want to wear super short shorts while exercising we don t we d like our wiggly bits and soft spots to remain undercover thank you very much i d like running shorts with an inseam please like these for example found at dick s sporting goods something else i m not particularly good at spending money on hair products the nice ones i splurge every now and again but rarely buy fancy hair stuff so i d like this please i used it years ago and it was awesome something i am good at spending money on anthropologie clothes sure i shop their sales and rarely pay full price but i never seem to mind pulling the trigger on a cute clothing purchase either way i wouldn t be disappointed at all if this made it s way to me this mother s day sometimes i have a hard time coming up with non clothing items on a wish list today you are in luck i found something so me that i would love for my house this sign is available at pottery barn i grew up in a small little town named arlington which means i should probably own this i hate to get cheesy while i m trying to pretend to be serious about demanding things for mother s day who does that really but in truth the only thing i really want for mother s day is a lovely day spent with these guys and maybe one of these and a nap posted by carie at 11 14 am 6 comments tuesday may 8 2012 this morning this morning on my 4 3 but who is really counting mile run i listened to terry gross interview jack black it was really funny and kept my mind off the fact that i was running and sore from yesterday s workout it was not quite as funny as her interview with jason bateman and not nearly as funny as her interview with jon stewart which is also known as the funniest terry gross interview of all time according to me she played a portion of this song which first made my jaw drop and then made me guffaw neither of which is conducive to breathing while running i ve never seen the movie high fidelity but tried to read the book the book was kind of boring and so full of language those crazy brits that i gave it a pass but this clip makes me think i should reconsider last night we took the whole family to see the avengers it was all that i dreamed of and more so fun super clean i think it would make basis for a solid family home evening lesson cue my children s groans and eye rolls avengers is about selflessness and teamwork and looking for people s strengths instead of their weaknesses and defeating the bad guys if i do have a fhe lesson on it i think the opening song will be we re all in this together from high school musical good thing i already know the dance moves now i am off to clean my house and go to trader joes i love my life posted by carie at 9 02 am 6 comments friday april 27 2012 kate spade purse i have been looking for a small simple purse i think this is just about perfect what an interesting coincidence that mother s day is approaching posted by carie at 9 21 am no comments sunday april 15 2012 easter oh hello it s been awhile i ve got a lot to say but today i think we will start with easter this will be a churchy post i m just warning you i m mormon and for those of you who didn t know mormons are in fact christian as christian as you can get and as much as i love christmas it really can be more of a secular holiday you know his real birthday is in the spring right but easter easter is the celebration of the atonement and the resurrection to me easter is the most religious holiday we celebrate our savior s sacrifice and triumph over death with easter egg hunts and easter baskets please tell me you got the sarcasm there i actually don t have any issues with egg hunts they are fun and you get chocolate and the heathen easter baskets don t bother me either again chocolate our easter bunny often leaves bags not baskets for no reason other than they are cheaper and easier than baskets i think i ve never really asked him he also likes to leave tons of candy most of which is not chocolate but i guess it s for the kids so i can t really complain we decorate for easter we go to church we go to church every sunday but still we are extra happy to attend on easter for you interested in fashion my oldest s dress is from urban outfitters it s super cute i was asked to speak at church i know speaking on easter yikes no pressure i based most of my talk on this devotional given at byu the best talk on grace i ve ever heard brother wilcox s talk not mine for fhe we watched this amazing video about the savior you should watch it too posted by carie at 7 43 pm 2 comments monday march 19 2012 thumbs up thumbs down thumbs up i picked up this rain coat at target to help me get through spring soccer season the fields where the kids play soccer are always 20 degrees colder than anywhere else in the city not to mention the near gale force winds that tear through the soccer fields i m not kidding at least 20 degrees colder the coat also comes in a darling pink color that i nearly bought but the butterflies won out in the end thumbs up incidentally if you were wondering these are the perfect casual shoes i have not procured them as of yet but plans are in the works navy matches every thing but black of course two thumbs way up two thumbs way up for the new skinner family policy no screens until after dinner screen is anything with er a screen computer gameboy tv xbox wii etc and then of course only if home work is done and rooms are clean my genius husband came up with it we read this great article keeping safe and balanced in a google youtube twitter facebook ieverything world for family home evening we ve tried to come up with a way to limit screen time but as you parents know it s impossible to keep track of specified amounts of screen time for 4 kids with the new rule there is no arguing no fighting no complaining thumbs down i thought this movie was crass and dumb but i still think reese witherspoon is adorable thumbs up i loved this book you will love it too especially if you like soccer and helping out refugees and being a good person and reading nonfiction thumbs up i found this song via this post and fell instantly in love i thought that i was perhaps hip and cool until i heard it a week later on our top 40 station not that i listen to top 40 shudder but my kids sometimes do they are young and still learning awesome ness even if it occasionally plays on the top 40 station it is still the best song i ve heard in awhile thumbs up you want to wear happiness you should check out t his shirt it s so soft that s all i ve got for now six thumbs up and only one thumb down i like the ratio posted by carie at 9 05 pm 2 comments older posts home subscribe to posts atom goodreads account about me carie view my complete
