Sunday Night Blues

Every once in a GREAT while, caffeine keeps me awake. Or maybe it's the fact that I drank 1/3 of a monster at 7:30 pm? Regardless, I'm awake, my body feels funny, and my brain won't shut down. What do I do? I browse Pinterest and read Facebook posts.

Anyways, if you're up this late with me, please enjoy these wonderful Pinterest gems that I came across.

I may or may not do a waterfall braid for Colt's eBay work party this weekend. 

I will be attempting to make this gingerbread bread in a few weeks. 

I plan on making this tomorrow night, with decaf coffee of course! ;)

Now I want to put everything in a mason jar. Because of my lack of sleep, I made homemade hot cocoa mix in a jar. 

For the past two years, it's been a tradition that Colton makes me these birthday cake pancakes on my birthday. They are to die for, seriously!

Now that I've thoroughly exhausted Pinterest, I really hope I can get some sleep as I have to wake up in 5 hours :/ Darn, 7:30 am class! Goodnight!

It's a wrap (bucket list wrap-up)

At the beginning of this summer, I made myself a "summer bucket list" of things I wanted to accomplish this summer. I would love to say that I did every single thing on the list, but life happens and some things don't work out as planned. Regardless, I did do almost every thing on the list to some extent.
