News from the Skinnys

1. We moved. Not really a move at all since it was a town over. But, still. We moved. And all the furniture fits in the new apartment... which makes Deidre so happy because she was almost in tears every night thinking about buying a new couch. Pictures of the new home coming soon!
2. Adam came up with a brilliant way to get ice cream out of a those cardboard boxes. Just cut it. Ice cream cubes are way better than scoops.

3. Deidre died her hair blond. Adam changed which side he part his hair per Deidre's request.
4. The blog hit 900 followers. Thank you so much to everyone! It was such a humbling number to see on the sidebar. Looking forward to 900 more followers. Or 9000... that would be sweet.

5. Deidre is now in charge of all social media, alongside her event manager duties, for the Provo Marriott. Cool gig.
6. We have cable for the first time in our married lives. But we don't have internet yet and we can't find our cell phone chargers or any of Adam's socks.
7. Adam officially became a Utah resident for tax purposes... that sucks. (Sorry to any people that are Utah residents, we just are not.. and should never have to be... unless we are trying to save money for tax purposes. I'm being all sorts of Utah-offensive, huh?)

8. Adam was invited down to a private workout with the Arizona Diamondbacks. He had a really good outing. Now we must wait until the draft in a few days.

9. Deidre started Insanity. She is always sore now. Also. Shakeology is delicious and she really misses eating chocolate covered gummy bears.
10. This weekend Adam and Deidre are running the Dirty Dash. And that will be sweet. Adam will probably run it and Deidre will probably walk it... because, as previously mentioned, she is sore.
11.Draper UT has a weird U-turn intersection... not that that has anything to do with us. We just thought it was interesting and weird.

12.There will be a new series introduced soon. *Hint: Who likes TV? What are your favorite shows*... that wasn't a hint at all. Those were real questions that I would like answered.
13. Deidre has made a promise to de-junk her closet... aka. There will be lots of D.I. bags in the near future. Adam is teaching her the way of organization.14. And last, but not least, watch for a giveaway coming up.

You can follow along with our lives on (@lovetheskinnys for Deidre and @skinnymill for Adam) Twitter and Instagram! What is going on in your lives? What news do you have to share? Oh... and for real - answer that question up above about TV.

All Time & Underground

The BYU Baseball team has coined two phrases this past couple years. All time to describe the best things and underground to describe sneaking around and hiding stuff - aka bad things. It comes from a few discussion with an administrator in which he has said, "You guys better not be leaving underground..." or something like, "That win against LSU was all time!" So without further ado. Here are my all times and undergrounds from the last two weeks.

Bees game with my guy // new earring from Bijou Market // painted nails

Shirleys // Earth Day // My package from Misikko - best packaging evs

Noah announcing his baby sister // Costco dinner // Fly kicks and front rows

Living room // Baseball Husband // Sunday drive

Underground:

• Having a little girl pee on me in nursery.
• Starting a diet that includes something I hate in every single meal. I cannot wait for this darn detox week to be over. Watch for a post about my time spent with Revolt Fitness.
• Forgetting shoes on our road trip and thinking I would have to wear high heels to a baseball game.
• Painting my nails and instantly smudging them all because I had to go to the bathroom so bad.
• Adam only being home for like... two days before hitting the road again.
• Doing dishes. And cleaning the house. But... I will have to get to use to that, right? Eventually...

All Time:

• Weekend staycataion to SLC for a temple trip and a Bees game.
• Adam having a lights out start last weekend.
• Getting my living room re-decorated with my new Alexa Z Design prints.
• Costco dinner for the diet from h-e-double barbie legs.
• Finding out that my brother and sister in law will be adding another baby girl to the Edmunds clan!
• Hana hair straightener waiting on my front porch. Watch for a review coming oh so very soon.
• A successful nail painting, new earrings, and Shirley temples.

And so that is about it. Life is good and I am looking forward to more of those all time moments, because they happen more often than you would think. And most of the time, it is the simple things! What were you undergrounds and all times from last week? What simple things make your week the best?

Love,
Deidre

Just How Boring

I wanted to do an Instalife post to sum up all the things I have been doing. But then I realize just how boring my life is without Adam. Do I sound like a broken record talking about Adam being gone? Well. Sorry. Because my record is broken. Because I do the same thing every day when he is gone. One Tree Hill. Unless I am going to Idaho for a wedding. But that is about as unique as it gets people. So here is a smaller version of Instalife to sum up my last few weeks.

feeling fiesty in my animal print // found my keys and my Jesus - autocorrect win // my bestie and me

leaving Idaho skies for smog // HI ADAM! // Adam eating crawfish

my besite and her hubs with Adam at LSU // sleepover with the pup // rhinestoned and 5 inches

So basically it goes me dressing in clothing to go to work. Leaving work for a trip to Idaho. Spending time in with friends and family. Adam on the road. Me on the road. Sending text photos back and forth. Sleepover with my puppy to keep my company. And then I bought some ridiculously AWESOME shoes to make up for not having anyone to share a bed with for about 10 days. Sweet. What have you been up to? What do you do when you are home alone? And.... what do you think of my new shoes?

Love,

Deidre

Dear Insta-tues,
