Hubby and I are thinking about refinancing our home this week since we bought our house back in 2008 and the interest rate few years ago was crazy high. The problem we are having right now is.. is it worth refinancing if we are only planning to stay at our home for another 3-4 years? By all means we love our home, but 3 bedrooms may not be big enough for us when Kaylee is older. We want to start looking for our next home right before Kaylee start pre-K so that we can get her into a good school district. argh so much to think about! I get so bored when reading about escrow, principal, and interest rates. :) Forget the boring home terminology, I am already thinking home decor for our next home! I get butterflies just thinking paint swatches and decor shopping! Follow me on pinterest for my home decoration ideas . send me a msg if you need an invite. I love the pop of yellow. Been loving this color this year for home decor. Would love an office with clean lines like this one. ...

Oh Monday, how I don't miss thee. This is my Monday outfit, I pretty much threw it together since I woke up super late this morning. Mixing casual with business. I also love jean jacket with white or floral dress too! Dannielle Stevens Necklace $102 that I score for only $18! In other news, I met Michelle Branch!! My friend won 2 tickets to see her perform live at an up close and personal mini concert right by work where she performed her new single Loud Music . The concert was for just an hour and it was more like a meet and greet with less then 30 people. She was so cute and so glad I met her since I love her music. Her last album was 8 years ago!

Most of my outdoor photos are taken by friends or hubby. On Saturday, I ventured outside to take some outdoor shoots. I failed miserably! What I got out from that shoot was a big huge mosquito bite on my hand! :X grr. so for the sake of my skin, I went back inside to take photos of my outfit :D I might try again once I find a secluded place so that I won't be so weird about taking pictures of myself lol I have been searching forever for a plain long mustard cardigan. Just last week, I saw it at F21 and I was pretty happy..and for just $11, I was doing the happy dance! Such an awkward pose!
