My Fashion

Happy Tax Day! I sure hope you all have them done already! If you're like Patrick and I, you've had them filed, gotten your return and already spent the money...a month ago. HA!

Anyways...

For the last couple of weeks I have been taking pictures of my outfits, with every intention of posting them here as fashion posts...and I finally got so many so I figured I better share them! 

Here is a glimpse into the fashion world of Nicole...

Top is from Old Navy, pants are Apt 9 from Kohl's and boots are Candies brand.

Shirt is Kiki LaRue, jeggings are Vanity, boots I have no clue cause a friend gave them to me brand new because she didn't like them. Necklace is Forever 21.

Same boots and pants, shirt and scarf are Wet Seal. And Hunter is wearing Children's Place :)

Shirt is about 8 years old from Express, pants are from Kohls and necklace and bracelet are from Forever 21.

Shirt is from Kiki LaRue, necklace is Wet Seal, leggings are Vera Wang, long tank is Old Navy, and boots are from Famous Footwear. 

And here we did an impromptu photo session...

Again, the pants! Apparently I wear them a lot...boots again from Famous Footwear, shirt from a local boutique, long tank from Victorias Secret, scarf from Maurice's, purse is Michael Kors.

 Pants and boots are from Kohls, shirt is from New York & Co.

So there you have it! Keep in mind all of these are for work, so I can't wear jeans except for Fridays. I either have my coworker take the pics, or sneak into my bosses office in front of her full length mirror! Ha ha! I don't mind dressing up for work, but I also try to stay comfortable. I hardly ever wear heels, and if I do they're usually wedges. 

Which of these is your favorite outfit? Mine is the top picture with the black and white striped top. I'll try to do more of these posts, because I like seeing what other people wear! 

Happy Tuesday friends!

Weekend Wrap Up

Aaaaaaand we're back to Monday! I honestly don't mind Mondays because I love my job and I love the people I work with. Well, most of them ;) And for me it's really like Tuesday because I have a short week this week. I'm headed to Vegas on Friday for the weekend !Woohoo!

This weekend was pretty low-key for us, which is nice. Friday night we went to dinner with my brother and sister in law, and then headed in for the night. Saturday Patrick worked around the farm a bit, and was checking cows and saw that we had the first calf of the year!

All of our cows are red angus, but we are taking care of our neighbors' herd of 235 cows this winter, so this was one of his. While he was out working I started cleaning. He came home and entertained Hunter while I scrubbed the floors, cleaned bathrooms and got ready for company we were having that night. He also started planning out some corrals and a riding arena that we're going to put up this year.

As I mentioned, we were having some of our friends out for dinner. They have a 6 month old little girl named Trinity. Let's just say I have one chunky monkey for a child, because she is twice his age and they weigh the same and are the same length. We were joking that it was their first date together and got some pictures together. They were so cute! After a few seconds she sort of cuddled into him and started holding his hand. It was adorable :)

Sunday we went to church, Patrick did some work stacking hay and loading his semi, and well, I blogged :) I am happy to report that I have a blog entry for EVERY day this week! That hasn't happened in months!!

One thing I've started doing to be more organized for the week, is a lot of prep work. Sunday I usually do meal prepping for the week. I go to the grocery store on Thursday or Friday, then get everything ready for the week. I usually bake something for Patrick to take in his lunches, get stuff ready for my lunches, and make a couple dinners ahead of time. This week I am making some marinated round steaks for tomorrow night and lasagna for another night.

I also set out Hunter's outfits for the whole week, and my outfit for the next day. Staying super organized like this definitely helps me get to work on time, and allows me to get up at my normal time that I always did in the mornings, even before baby. I'm still able to make a nice meal every night, and make a lunch for myself and Patrick every day. All while working full time! But believe me, I get tired!

Sunday night we decided to have a movie night, so I got some microwave popcorn, candy and some ice cream for both of us :) we rented Last Vegas and it was pretty funny.

Overall it was a nice weekend with my little family. We're looking forward to a week of hard work, and then a trip for me starting Friday, and some daddy/Hunter time for 3 days!

Happy Monday friends!

What's Oil Pulling?

Recently I had heard a lot of information about oil pulling...I heard a couple people talking about it and saw a couple links on Facebook. So I decided to give it a try! 

First, I'll explain kind of what it is. I found a really good website called Food Matters, which is where I got the best information about oil pulling. Most other stuff I read was reviews from bloggers or a website about how well it worked for them. 

Oil pulling is an ancient Ayurvedic remedy for oral health and detoxification. It involves the use of pure oils as agents for pulling harmful bacteria, fungus, and other organisms out of the mouth, teeth, gums and even throat.

Benefits of oil pulling:

•  Overall strengthening of the teeth and gums and jaws, helps reduce migraines
• Helps reduce migraines
• Prevention of diseases of the gums and mouth, such as cavities and gingivitis
• Prevention of bad breath
• Potential holistic remedy for bleeding gums
• Prevention of dryness of the lips, mouth and throat
• Possible holistic treatment for TMJ and general soreness in the jaw area
• Correcting hormone imbalances
• Reducing inflammation of arthritis
• May help with gastro-enteritis
• Aids in the reduction of eczema
• May reduce symptoms of bronchitis
• Helps support normal kidney function
• May help reduce sinus congestion
• Some people report improved vision
• Helps reduce insomnia
• Reduces hangover after alcohol consumption
• Aids in reducing pain
• Reduces the symptoms of allergies
• Helps detoxify the body of harmful metals and organisms
     

So...how does it work? 
The most effective oil pulling is done by placing around a tablespoon of cold pressed organic sesame oil into the mouth and swishing the oil around the mouth for approximately 10-15 minutes and then spitting it out. First, the oils mix with the saliva, turning it into a thin, white liquid. Lipids in the oils begin to pull out toxins from the saliva. As the oil is swished around the mouth, teeth, gums and tongue, the oil continues to absorb toxins, and usually ends up turning thick and viscous and white. Once the oil has reached this consistency, it is spit out before the toxins are reabsorbed.

I started with coconut oil. It was $9.99 for a large jar of it at the grocery store, which I didn't think was too bad. I started it on Friday morning, and the thing I noticed right away that day was that my breath didn't stink as bad...I had a buffalo chicken sandwich with bleu cheese and sweet potato fries for lunch, and afterwards my breath didn't smell like anything. I'm thinking after about a week I'll see an improvement in my skin and teeth whitening.

I'll definitely keep you all updated on my progress! Has anyone else heard of this or tried it? Has it worked for you?

Mama's Night Out

Last weekend Patrick and I attended a local fundraiser for the Mondak Stockgrower's Association and the Foundation for Community Care. Both are local non-profit organizations. Obviously Stockgrower's helps promote animal agriculture, and the Foundation helps support local healthcare. This was the second year the two teamed up to put on the Cattleman's Ball. It's a night full of food, dancing, drinks and an auction.

My friend Chay was in town again, so we went dress shopping in the morning. I got a new Calvin Klein dress that I absolutely love. Since I've lost so much weight after baby, most of my dresses don't fit me. Oh darn, have to go shopping! Chay and I were friends in college, so when we were getting ready for the evening it was just like old times. 

Before we left for the evening, my mother in law came over to watch Hunter and got a few pictures of us.

Our first family picture :) I hate that it's a  little blurry, but the lighting wasn't the best at the time.

How lucky is he that he had 2 hot dates?!

I love that Hunter is smiling for the camera!

And last but certainly not least...

This event was pretty fancy-they had a red carpet and everything! The evening started out with a social hour, and salad and rolls. A few people got up to talk about the organizations, including a representative from the Montana Beef Council. Then we were served a dinner of prime rib, and baked or scalloped potatoes. They had a dessert bar, and we told Patrick to get us one of everything, so he did! Hey, this was my cheat day for eating, so I took full advantage!

Let's just say after a few cocktails, Chay and I decided to have our own photo shoot on the red carpet...

 It started out nice...

Then things got a little western...

I don't know what got into me on Saturday night, but I just felt like having a whiskey night. That almost never happens. It just sounded good for some reason though. Who knows.

Patrick with our good friend Vanessa, Russell, and Vanessa's friend Megan.

It was a great night out with friends, and we look forward to doing another fun outing in a couple weeks to a local brewery! 

I've Been Diagnosed

Although the title of this post may seem like I have some sort of medical condition, I don't. 

I've been diagnosed with Chronic Bitch Face.

One of my friends shared this on Facebook the other day, and I thought it was just so hilarious that I had to share it. I can't even begin to tell you how many times people have asked me "what's wrong?" or "are you mad?", "why aren't you smiling?". SO. MANY. TIMES. Nothing is wrong. I just don't feel like walking around with a big old stupid smile on my face. This is just the way I look. 

I thought I would share the article, because I could relate to most of the things on the list. I have been told all of these things at some point in my life! Get ready for a good laugh!

Chronic bitch face is a debilitating attribute that affects the facial muscles, causing the afflicted to look like a total and complete bitch. This crippling and socially impairing handicap deems a girl guilty of looking pissed off 80 percent of the time. Symptoms include emotionless eyes, fierce eyebrows, and an overall stern appearance. As a girl affected by chronic bitch face, I can personally attest that it is no fun and quite annoying. It’s not that I’m actually constantly angry or irritated–my face just happens to naturally look like that of a total asshole. I’m not talking about a Tyra Banks type of beautiful fierceness, I’m talking about a chronic Grumpy Cat expression. Unless I’m actively smiling or making an effort to not look like I just murdered a family of six, I look like I’m pissed at the world. It sucks, because other than that, I’m a relatively approachable person (after I’ve had my coffee, that is). You know that you also suffer from chronic bitch face if you resonate with the following situations:

1. You have to reassure your friends anywhere from five to 10 times a day that you are NOT mad at them.
2. You may feel totally content and happy, but you look like Kristen Stewart.
3. You sometimes forget how mean you look and are confused when people avoid eye contact or look terrified to be around you.
4. Your cute, flirtatious smile actually makes you look like you’ve devised a new murder scheme.
5. Your family constantly tells you smile, and you’re like, “I’m fucking happy, dammit.”
6. Interviews are your worst nightmare, because who would hire a girl who looks like she drowns kittens for fun?
7. The freshmen in your sorority are all afraid of you because you look like a raging asshole.
8. You get asked the same questions on a daily basis: ”Are you pissed about something?” “Are you sure you’re okay? You don’t look okay.” “Are you bored?” “Seriously, what’s wrong?”
9. You have to respond to these questions, saying, “NOTHING IS WRONG. IT’S JUST MY FACE.”
10. Your friends eventually open up to you and tell you they were intimidated by you the first few times they met you. You’ve gotten, “I thought you hated me” a solid 15 times.
11. You have to use a wide array of vocal tones to make up for the fact that your face is stuck in such a bored expression.
12. You generally give off an awful first impression.
13. People expect your attitude toward strangers is similar to that of Kanye’s toward the paparazzi.
14. You’ve learned to avoid arching your eyebrows, because it makes you look like Jafar from “Aladdin”.
15. That cute guy at the bar seems overly cautious and on-guard when approaching you. You can just tell that internally, he’s like, “Shit, this girl looks pissed, should I go for it?”
16. Then when you actually smile, you witness a legitimate wave of relief sweep across his face.
17. Additionally, you give him major props for approaching you when your face says, “I have eight cats and I knit in my free time.”
18. You have to tell people when you actually are pissed, because your angry face is pretty much identical to your resting face.
19. In fact, if your face had a slogan, it would be “Get the hell away from me.”
20. Your cheeks hurt from faking a smile the entire time during a conversation with a person you’ve just met, because you don’t want him or her automatically thinking that you’re a dick.
21. Nicki Minaj is your spirit animal.
22. People think you’re PMSing every day of the month.
23. You look like you’re plotting a mass murder, when in reality you’re just wondering what’s for lunch.
24. Your boyfriend lives in constant fear that he has done something wrong.
25. You’ve learned to own your bitch face, because you are awesome and anyone who sticks around through your misleading mask will see that.

Crazy Dreams

I've told you all before about my crazy dreams. I had them before I was pregnant, so I know it's not that that's causing these off-the-wall dreams. I told my boss about it (who's a Licensed Addictions Counselor) and he said, "Have you noticed your food tasting funny lately? You know, like acid?" Cause apparently my dreams are similar to stories that his clients tell him. 

Last time I shared my dreams, it turns out my cousin's (hi Erin!!) mother in law interprets them, so hopefully she'll have a good answer for me this time too. Once she shares what it means with me, I'll let you guys know. 

I had a whopper the other night that I just had to share with you guys, so here goes:

I was in a classroom because I became a teacher for kindergarten, even though I wasn't qualified. Chay's sister was in my classroom helping me lesson plan because I had no idea what I was doing. Then I had to leave to take care of a house transaction because I was buying/selling a house with my friend Lacey. However the transaction ended up, I ended up making $2.5 million dollars. The millions were left in two square million dollar bills. The rest of it was larger bills. Lacey just left them on the table, but I was out of the classroom. I came back in and one of the kids had taken one of the million dollar bills and ripped it. Chay's sister just taped it and it was fine.

Then I was in Vegas with my mom and we were sitting in the front row of this smaller show. I didn't want to go there, but my mom really wanted to go so we did. But it was some no-name person who wasn't even singing. They were just on stage getting ready for the show. The theater was all in red velvet. My brother was also there but kept coming in and out of the theater. I wanted to go tend to my garden, but my mom wouldn't let me.

When we finally could go, I ended up at my parent's house where my garden was in their backyard. My uncle Glen (dad's brother) was supposed to be there taking care of one of Patty and Rick's dogs, Deeks. I went back to water my garden. I was surprised it wasn't overtaken by weeds because I hadn't weeded it all summer. The plants were big and growing and I already had some squash growing even though it was too early in the season. The corn was big and huge, and I just kept spraying water all over it with this big giant hose I had borrowed from Patrick's Uncle Steve. I had too many carrots and squash, so I dug them up and placed them in a dirt pile. All of a sudden, they started growing on that dirt pile so I started watering them. I went back to look more in my garden to see what I had, and that's when I found Deeks. He had gotten into something so my uncle tried to help him. He placed him in a pink kiddie pool, and put that on top of a brown leather chair in the garden. I picked Deeks up out of the pool and tried to get him to walk but he was so sick. I was so sad. He layed down and I saw that his insides had been operated on and there was a giant open wound along his belly. I opened it up and there was a baby toy inside of him. I took that out and then I started grabbing the gauze my uncle had used-which happened to be all of the baby blankets and swaddlers that people had given me at my baby showers. I kept pulling more and more out of him and they didn't seem to stop. I was mad so I called Patty and told her, and was on my cell phone with her as I kept pulling out the folded and washed blankets.

So what do you think? Am I crazy, or am I crazy??

My Attempt at Being a Fashion Blogger...A Sad Story

Last week, Patrick asked me to follow him down the road to an old shed so we could park our hay baler and older tractor for the winter. Of course I obliged.

And it just so happened that the light was decent, so I decided to make Patrick stop what we were doing and take a picture of me...you know, so I could be a fashion blogger and all. I  mean, look how I flipped my hair to the side! Granted I wasn't staring off into space, laughing at nothing or at my feet (which is what a lot of fashion bloggers do, but that's just not me), but I think I added enough sass to the picture. Oh, and a giant belly.

Patrick had a long 3 days weaning calves from their mommas, so he was ready to be home and sitting in his recliner for the night...so he wasn't too thrilled to be stopping and taking pictures of me at the end of the day. But being the good blogger husband he is, he obliged. I asked him what he thought about it and this is how he replied! HAHAHA, oh what a sense of humor he has. But hey, he stopped long enough for me to take a picture of him, so he couldn't have been too upset ;)

And last but certainly not least...our sweet little Smoke all tuckered out from playing hard all day. This dog will even put himself to bed at night when he's tired. Around 9 pm, he'll go in the bedroom and jump up on the bed and fall asleep! What a sweet little bud.

Happy Hump Day everyone! Only 42 days until Christmas!!

Just Call Me Sunshine

First and foremost, I want you all to wish my handsome hubby a Happy Birthday today! He's the big 2-9! 

 

On to other business for the day...

I got nominated for a Sunshine Award from Jen @ It's My Life a couple weeks ago, and I am just getting around to answering the questions she asked about me! So here goes...

My 11 questions are:
 
1. What is your favorite movie?
     -I have too many to choose from! My favorite is probably Fried Green Tomatoes. I've loved it since I was a kid, and still love it to this day. Other top movies include My Best Friend's Wedding and Grease.

2. When you were a child, what did you want to be when you grew up?
     -I remember playing "teacher" a lot with my cousins and siblings, so I think probably a teacher.

3. Who would play you in the movie of your life?
     -I would probably choose somebody like Julia Roberts or Catherine Zeta-Jones. 

4. What is your favorite dessert?
    -That chocolate cake from Costco...which we had as our wedding cake (after our cake baker had a family tragedy about a week before the wedding), and I'll be having more of it on Friday for my birthday!

5. Do you like to read? If yes, what?
    -I like to read trashy romance novels, mystery books, thriller books, and memoirs (as long as they're not super boring). Anything but fantasy or science fiction.

6. What is your dream vacation?
    -I have LOTS of dream vacations! I would love to spend a week at a resort somewhere tropical. I'd love to tour around Ireland, and love to take a Mediterranean Cruise.

7. What is your favorite restaurant?
    -Probably the Sandpiper in Idaho Falls, Idaho. We used to live there, and would go there about once a month. To this day, I could tell you exactly what Patrick and I would both order. He would have the fried calamari, baseball sirloin cooked medium well with a caesar salad and loaded baked potato, with a Coors Light draft beer. I would have the spinach artichoke dip, baseball sirloin cooked medium with caesar salad and loaded baked potato, with a glass of Pinot. And for dessert we would share the strawberry cheesecake. Yeah, we went there a couple times :)

8. What are your hobbies?
    -It seems I have more hobbies in the summer time-gardening, my flowers, baking, taking pictures. In the winter my hobbies include...um, TV watching? Does that count?

9. Do you use social media? If so, what platforms?
   -Facebook, blogger (duh), Instagram, Pinterest...tried to get into twitter but there's so much random crap on there and I hate when people re-tweet something from someone else. I don't care what someone else wrote, I want to read what YOU wrote. That's why I followed you. It just took up too much time. 

10. What cheers you up when you're feeling down?
     -My dogs, always. I mean, look at those faces :)

11. What have you never done but would like to?
    -Be a mom, which will happen here shortly :) What else...vacation at a resort for a whole week with just my husband (which will hopefully be happening next June!!!),  run in any sort of race (let's just go with a 5K...that's really all I want to do to say I did it), get a NICE camera and take some professional looking photos (getting one early next year-hellooooo tax return!). These are all goals of mine, which should hopefully happen within the next year or so...well, about that race. We'll see about that one :)

Tomorrow I'm going to the doctor for my 32 week ultrasound! I'm super excited! I'll hopefully have a pregnancy post and update for you shortly after that :)

I've Changed A Little

One this is for sure...when I travel I miss my husband...and my pups :) While I was trying to fall asleep the first night away from home this week, I realized I didn't want to sleep in the dead quiet. When Patrick and I go to bed at night, he usually turns on Sportscenter. I fall asleep really fast and he's usually awake for another 20-30 minutes.

So what did I do Monday night, laying in bed trying to fall asleep? I turned on Sportscenter.

It got me thinking...what are some other things that I find myself doing since I've been married? Things that before Patrick, I never would have done or known about? So I compiled a list...

1) Sleep with the TV on.
2) Know entirely too much about NASCAR-and know that it's a lot more than people driving in circles.
3) Keep my vehicle clean and picked up on the inside at all times.
4) Know more classic rock and older country songs and lyrics.
5) Can name the size of engine on almost any Chevy pickup truck.
6) I can look at a vehicle, be able to tell you make and model, whether it takes diesel or gas based on the size of the engine.
7) Be able to look at a piece of farm equipment and tell you what it does.
8) Make comments such as "Oooh, look, that A300 has a GPS system so they can get an even grade", "that crop looks like shit", and "wow, that's probably too much weight for that pickup to be hauling"...and know exactly what I'm talking about.
9) Pay serious attention to gas and diesel prices and be able to tell you the price in any given town within a 100 mile radius.

Are there things that you guys have learned from your spouses that you thought you'd never know about? Or habits of theirs that you've picked up?

These conferences this week are wearing me out...I know this isn't the most creative post and there are no pictures...but hey, we can't win them all, can we? I have a HUGE weekend coming up that I'll have LOTS of pictures from-husband's best friend's wedding, my first baby shower and time with my family. I can't WAIT!!! Friday at 2 pm the work week is over and the fun begins, and I'm EXCITED to say the least!

Oh, and for all of you fellow agriculture lovers out there, today is "Thank an Ag teacher day", so if you see one, thank them!

Hope you're all having a great week!

Friday Randoms

Happy Friday! Today is my last day in the office for a week and a half! Next week I'll be traveling for conferences, headed to a friend's wedding in Western Montana and then to spend a couple days with my family, which will include the first of my 2 baby showers. I'm excited!!

I have just a couple random things for today...

 You see what that is on my windshield?? It's FROST. Like, I had to get my scraper and scrape it off. I'm ready for fall-especially the boots and scarves weather, but I'd be ok holding off on the frost for now.

I got to take Patrick lunch the other day. He's hauling grain for an elevator in the area. 

See that big pile of yellow stuff on the right? He hauls that grain into to big tall structure. They done have enough storage space, so they have to pile it on the ground. And they have to get it into the elevator in order to load it onto the trains. It's a pretty good deal for him, cause he uses very little gas, can overload his truck cause he doesn't have to go over a weigh scale, and can make as much money in one day as I can in about a week and a half. Works for me!

My last Farmers Market is tomorrow!! 

I added up all of the loaves if bread I've made over the past month and a half...are you ready for this??

271 loaves of bread!!

157 of them were full size loaves, and 114 were mini loaves. No wonder I feel like all I do is bake!!

That's about all I have for today! I'm hoping to still get some time to blog next week while I'm out of town, but we will see. Hope you all have a great weekend!!

Weekend Shenanigans

UsThis weekend we got rain...which means no combining and I actually got to spend quite a bit if time with my husband! Harvest has been in full swing for a couple weeks so most of the time I only see him in the mornings and when he gets in at 10 p.m.

Saturday morning started off with farmers market. I sold most of the bread I had, about 30 loaves!! Most of my veggies are done growing in the garden, and what's left we will be keeping for ourselves. 

Saturday afternoon I took a big ol' nap and it was amazing!! Saturday night we met up with some friends for drinks at a brewery (it was root beer for me of course!), dinner, and a little karaoke. 

Here is my friend Chay who was in town and my brother-this was the first time we've been out together since he turned 21 in July. 

Sunday we slept in, then met up with some other friends to watch the Packers play. Unfortunately they lost :( 

But is this not the face of a man who loves football and is just excited the season started?

Like a kid in a candy store I'm tellin ya. After that we came home, started more baking for the week and ended the night with a root beer float. We brought home a growler of root beer from the brewery the night before. Yum!

Now it's off to another busy week. How was your weekend?

Confess Sesh...

Haven't done one of these in awhile, and I always love hearing other people's deepest, darkest secrets! And I'm not talking about "fluff" stuff, I'm talking the real deal! I'm gonna share some stuff that you might think is too much info!!

...sometimes I continue gorging myself even after I'm full, to the point where I will unbutton my pants in public. For real. 

...my sister and I's conversations usually revolve around poop.

...I add grated mozzarella cheese to my Kraft mac n cheese. Makes it SO much creamier!

...I'm pretty good with money. But sometimes I'm still late on making payments.

...the other day I farted in my office. Thought it would be silent, and it most definitely was not. And I actually laughed out loud at myself!

...I talk to myself....a lot. And sometimes make different sounding voices.

...I have a black hair that grows on my chin that I have to tweeze out about once every two months. So random.

...I think college was worth the money for the experience, and a little bit for the actual degree.

...Sometimes I'll pretend I don't know how to do something if I just don't want to do it.

...I get REALLY irritated when people tell me what I can and cannot do.

...Sometimes I do things the opposite of what other people are doing, just because I don't want to do what everyone else is doing and I'd rather be different. Even if I don't like it.

...Since I live out in the middle of nowhere, sometimes I tell people my phone lines are bad or have bad cell service if I just don't want to talk to them. What a bad friend I am!

...If an article of clothing doesn't look good on you, and you ask me what I think, I'll tell you that it doesn't look good on you.

...On days where I feel I have nothing to blog, I think about just quitting blogging all together.

...Most days I love my job. But there are those days where I have no patience for anyone or anything, and I just want to quit. Doesn't happen often, but when it hits, it's big!



So..was that juicy enough for you for my confessions?!?!
