Shoes

For my mom's birthday this weekend my sister, mom, and I went shopping.  We were at Nordstrom and I fell in love with these Betsey Johnson shoes, but then I looked at the price tag and just couldn't bring myself to pay $80 for them.  The bargain shopper in me just knew I could find similar shoes for much cheaper.



Then we went to H&M and I saw the cutest baby blue crocheted flats for only $15!. Yes and Yes.

Places We Want To Go

Nick and I are dying to see the World.

We'd both rather have a modest home and not own any extras, ie, boats, trailers, cabins, etc, and use our money to see the world.
We found the coolest app called "1000 Places to See Before You Die". It maps out all the places you want to go and categorizes them into beaches, hotels, adventures, etc...

Our first priority is Thailand. We've wanted to go there since we got married.   I am dying to ride an elephant and I've heard you can see a massage for $3.  Actually, come to think of it I don't love massages, but you get my point.

Draw Something

I am a horrible artist, my husband and sister in law can attest to that.  But the app Draw Something is still just so fun for me.  My husband is an artist so playing with him is so entertaining because I think, "Wow, how did you know how to draw that so well?!?"  I'm trying to talk him into giving me art lessons.  I think if I could choose to have any talent I would want to be able to draw, actually I'd want to be able to sing, or play the violin, or a marathon runner, pathetically the list goes on and on....

Anyway, If any of you would like to play my username is katieredd2010.

Our Trip

A couple weeks ago we went on a great vacation with Nick's parents. We went on a cruise to Key West and the Bahamas. We had such a great time.  I can't say it enough how lucky I am to absolutely love my inlaws.

Our first stop was Disney World, we went to some of the beautiful hotels around Disney World

Kathy and Mike

Our first stop was Key West. We loved it! It would be a dream to be able to live there.

Sightseeing in Key West

Dinner on the cruise. 3 course meals every night. Yummy!

Our next stop was the Bahamas and we decided to spend the day at Atlantis. That place is so amazing! Full of pools, restaurants, water slides, beaches, etc

My love soaking up the sun.  Can you believe the color of that water??

Formal Night




The last day we spent in the Bahamas we rented scooters and cruised around the island. We also went to The Wyndham Resort and definitely want to go back someday.
