The Liebster Award

Megan from Grad Student Needs Hobby was kind enough to pass on a Liebster award to me.  I feel like she read my mind a little. I was just trying to think of a way to tell you guys more about myself and ta-da! Perfect! So thank you, Megan. Everybody make sure you pop on over to her blog and check it out!
The Liebster award is for blog with less than 200 followers. The rules are that you must link back to the person who nominated you and answer their 11 questions.  Then you come up with 11 questions for 11 more blogs with 200 followers or fewer, and let everyone know they were nominated!  You also share 11 random facts about yourself. Here goes nothing!

11 Random Facts About Me

1. My name is Kate. It's not short for anything. My family calls me Katie.
2. I'm left-handed and proud of it.
3. I'm super scattered and usually have at least 3 projects going at once.
4. I don't sleep well ever, so I sleep often. Naps are my favorite!
5. I went to photography school, yet I've never been a full time photographer. I prefer to shoot for myself.

Snapshots 11.25.2013

This weekend, like most for me, has been spent catching up on stuff around the house. Weekdays are just so hectic that I tend to let things go a bit. The thing I'm most excited about is that MY TREE IS UP!


I bought a white tree a few years ago and I just love the way it brightens up the room! This year, I added a handful of vintage ornaments. Eventually, I want to put up two trees. I'd like to set up this one and a green tree with all of our family ornaments. I smile every time I walk into my living room now and I love having my coffee by tree light in the morning. Btw, the bottom right photo was shot with my phone while I was laying under the tree. If you ever want to feel like a kid again, I suggest laying under your tree and admiring it from below. Works like a charm!

Lately ~ November 2013


Lately, things have been on the hectic side. This week seems to have really gotten away from me. I'm scrambling to get my Christmas shopping done so that I can spend the month of December celebrating instead of stressing. I hope I can pull it off! Here's some more stuff that's been happening lately...
