Friday Finds- We Heart Hearts

 Valentine's Day is coming up so we put together a heart themed post. 
These heart shaped whoopie pies from Annie's Eats look yummy!  I want to make these for Valentine's Day for my hubby.
I want these so bad! I've seen them popping up everywhere.  These Betsy Johnson ones are adorable, and I've also seen them at Gap and Urban Outfitters.
I love these melted crayon hearts from Martha Stewart.
This print from Restyle shop by handz's Etsy shop would make a great Valentine's Day gift.
This was one of the first Valentine's crafts I saw on Pinterest. I love them and I love Valentine's Day!

Missing Church

skirt: ModBod, shirt: DownEast basics, sweater: Gap, tights: Walmart, necklace: Buckle, shoes: gift
This is what I wore to church on Sunday.  Well, what little bit of church Jensen and I made it to.  We learned an important lesson Sunday.  If we miss the announcements we need to check with someone to find out what they were.  Last week we were a few minutes late so we missed the announcements.  We have church at 11, and this week walked in a few minutes before 11.  We thought it was a little weird that no one else was walking in at the same time we were.  When we got inside we heard a talk already being played over the speakers in the hallway.  I saw a member of our bishopric sitting in the hall and he informed us that this week was stake conference and it started at 10. Oops.
A similar thing happened this summer.  Jensen and I were out of town two weeks in a row visiting his sister in California.  The Sunday we got back we walked down to church and noticed there were no cars in the parking lot.  I thought it was strange, but it was a nice day so I wondered if maybe everyone walked to church.  When we got closer to the building we realized it was completely empty.  Finally it dawned on us that it was stake conference that started at 10.  Our ward was at 1 at the time so we missed the entire meeting

Twin Tuesday

shirt: gap, sweater: DownEast, pants and belt: f21, boots: Nordstrom, necklace: vintage; watch: Fossil

This week for Twin Tuesday Suz and both wearing a grey long sleeve t-shirt. It's pretty much a blank canvas as far as clothes go.  I wore this to work Monday and since I'm not a huge fan of Mondays I decided to keep it low key and comfortable.  I did dress my shirt up a little with my layered pearl necklace.

jeans: levis, boots: gift, sweater: gift from Viv (old navy), shirt: gap, scarf: handmade, fox purse: target

I think I cheated a little because you can't even see my shirt. Viv gave me this sweater (right, Viv?) and I love it and have been wearing it constantly. Also, I hope you enjoyed the grocery store pics. Jordan leaves for work before I'm up and ready. Usually before I'm even up. And we're both home after its dark. I wanted to take pictures on the cereal isle because its my favorite, but there were too many people. So instead you get peanut butter and jelly.  And I hope you like my purse as much as me!

Sunday Snow



coat: gift from my mama, shirt: t j maxx, boots: target, skirt: shade

The snow has finally come! The weather has been predicting snow all week and last night we finally got some. We woke up to heavy rain Saturday morning and by the evening it was cold enough for the snow. Here's my outfit I wore to church yesterday. My mama sent Viv and me a surprise in the mail and it was this coat!! She said she found them super cheap online and thought we would like it. And I loooove mine. Thanks Mama!

Matt Costa and Proposals

Last night Viv and I went to a concert at BYU to see Matt Costa play.  I love Matt Costa and I was excited, but the concert was held in one of the ball rooms on campus. So basically it was in a giant room with a tiny stage so unless you were right up front you couldn't see much. The music was good. And the people watching was even better.  Here is what I witnessed:

sorry for the fuzziness, this is all I could get with the time I had

It's not quite what it looks like. You see, girl is crossing her arms and doesn't look too excited. Just keep reading... As we're watching the concert, this couple is standing in front of us. And they seem super into each other. Holding each other and facing each other singing along to the music. During one song, boy bends down on one knee. Girl looks ECSTATIC, as she should be. Boy looks up at girl and then looks down and ties his shoe. And then stands up. Girl is not happy. The concert keeps going, thy are not holding each other any more. Boy bends down AGAIN. Girl is mad. Boy stands up. Boy and girl leave. No proposal. Mean boy.

Poor girl. And I'm not as much of a creeper as I seem. When I saw him bend down I got SO excited. And I thought, if I were getting proposed to I would for sure want a picture.  He stood up too fast the first time for a photo, but I got one on his second (fake) attempt.

Copy Cat

shirt: f21, sweater and neckalces: DownEast, jeggings: Levi, shoes: gift
Today's Copy Cat is an outfit from Kristine or Polly.  Definitely one of my favorite blogs! She has the cutest stye. I love her use of bright colors and pattern mixing.  She's one of my style icons and helps me to be more adventurous in what I wear.  I love the contrast of the bold stripes and soft ruffles in this outfit by Kristine.
