this ultrasound was taken at 12 weeks - our first look at baby.
i was just going to post a simple picture on instagram and then a few words lead to a lengthy paragraph (or two). apparently i had more to say than what that platform had to offer! so here i am back at the blog. this poor space i left unattended for far too long.
well here's what's going on.

dislaimer: i am by no means a skilled sewist.
i don't sew on a regular basis... but boy do i wish i could! i had some free time yesterday (like i said, two weeks off) and whipped up these pillows. i make it sound so easy, don't i? "i just whipped them up!" really though, they're pretty simple and for that reason i love them all the more.
i followed this tutorial for the pillows. hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07713659440272956231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488060869027860191.post-65908812916391318352014-05-21T16:30:00.001-05:002014-05-21T16:55:21.569-05:00it's that time of year again!
what time of year, you ask? the time where i start blogging more! it's a proven thing. just look at my archives. i think it's because winter is FINALLY over and i come out of hibernation. i always thought i was a fan of the winter, and i am, but i think i've come to realize that i like my spring, summer, and fall more.
here's what's going on right now.
i have two weeks off from hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07713659440272956231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488060869027860191.post-75129161784879344952014-03-08T12:58:00.000-06:002014-03-08T13:04:39.042-06:00march.
i can't believe it's already march. this year has already brought trials and so many blessings. let's play catch up.

Here's my obligatory New Year's post for 2013. I may have stopped blogging for a bit but life still goes on. I'm excited to ring in the New Year and at the same time sad to see 2013 go. It was a good one. Like one of the best years of my life. I don't know how much merit that has considering there have only been 23 years of my life...but that's kinda saying that 22 other years didn't measure hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07713659440272956231noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488060869027860191.post-29868304956507464932013-09-16T17:13:00.000-05:002013-09-16T19:25:19.537-05:00uhh.. do you still blog?
That's a good question! It's been, what, a month since I last shared anything?
So many exciting things are happening in these parts, friends. I left the studio I formerly taught at and have been privately teaching from my home. I am teaching more now than I was at the studio, which is crazy to me and awesome! {Don't underestimate the power of word-of-mouth.} Working from home is hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07713659440272956231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488060869027860191.post-31663100504498477212013-08-20T09:57:00.000-05:002013-08-20T09:57:08.545-05:00float on | niobrara
i got to fulfill one of my 23 before 24 goals! hurray!
jake, a few friends, and i were able to head down the niobrara river in the middle of july.
it was a long drive to get to valentine, nebraska. fortunately, we had enough episodes of the vampire diaries to get us there. coming back we weren't so lucky.
it was definitely an experience. a six hour long experience!

Some might call it destiny or fate, but it still amazes me to see God's hand in our lives leading us to each other in His perfect timing.

It seems that Jake chose to put more embarrassing photos of me than himself in this slideshow... I might need to create my own as a rebuttal. ;)

I realized I've yet to post anything for July! So here are all our July happenings.
^^Friends came over for the Fourth of July to celebrate in our homely backyard. It may not look very homely in these pictures but we worked our butts off to get it to look somewhat presentable. I'm talking weeds like you've NEVER seen before.

charlie gets hot so easily now that it's warming up outside, it's a bulldog thing. so jake and i thought she could use a little pool to lounge in. turns out she is pretty sporty! the best part is watching her ears as she dives in... she looks like she could fly away.
yes, we spoil her.

I've been dying to get my hands on Gwyneth Paltrow's new cookbook It's All Good. The book features many gluten-free and vegan recipes that actually sound appetizing. Still haven't ordered it but I found this recipe from the book and made these bad boys. Now I'm really dying to purchase it! Try this one out and tell me what you think. I'll bet you go buy the book before I get the chance hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07713659440272956231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488060869027860191.post-33066300615720646302013-05-28T11:06:00.000-05:002013-05-28T11:06:22.199-05:00backyard camping.
this weekend we gave a go at camping.. in our backyard. backyard camping has to be one of the better versions of camping. better because when a thunderstorm hits at 3 am and your tent starts taking on water, you can head inside your dry house for cover. also, you and friends can gather in your kitchen the next morning to drink coffee and eat crepes. yep. it's good stuff.

today i said goodbye to my closest friend of nearly 15 years. it was and is hard, but i have some peace knowing that she lived a long and full life. she was my constant companion and the reason that i'm set on always having a dog in my life (more specifically a flat-nosed dog). even though the Bible doesn't talk about animals being in heaven, i have to believe that there is some place hannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07713659440272956231noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488060869027860191.post-4828888637571825322013-04-12T08:30:00.000-05:002013-04-12T08:30:04.351-05:00a video!

lil haircuts in the kitchen
a new 'do for you.
i watched a few videos on youtube and am now a skilled barber. {youtube is amazing, isn't it?}

this past saturday the weather here was so nice that we were able to take charlie to the dog park for the first time! i think every other dog owner in lincoln was there too. not to brag but i'm pretty sure charlie was the star of the dog park that day.
with that being said...
i love my puppy.

I introduced Charlie in my last post but here's how we came to acquire her.
Jake and I had been talking about getting a dog for a while and were stuck between a Boston Terrier and an English bulldog. We decided to wait a few months after we were married so that we could save up some money, especially if we were going to be adopting an English Bulldog, but always found ourselves lookinghannahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07713659440272956231noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2488060869027860191.post-53959388362782139812013-03-18T19:29:00.001-05:002013-04-10T16:32:50.971-05:00honeymoonin'.for our short little get away we headed down south. we made it all the way to oklahoma, which really isn't that exciting of a place but... we're married! some pictures from our getaway below.
oh. and we picked up a baby on our way home.
this is charlotte. we're gonna be calling her charlie.
just how a normal honeymoon should end. with a puppy.

yep. just three days.
i can't wait for the wedding to be over and to just move on with life. strange to say, right?
people look forward to their weddings. planning it. organizing it. me? i just want the end result. throughout the whole process i've been kind of weary of the whole wedding thing.
if it were solely up to me, we would have eloped.
