Ten Things I Love!

It is already another week and I can't believe it! How quickly time flies. But, alas, it is only Monday and this week is already amazing. On to the 10 Things I Love .....

1. I received my long anticipated (not really, I'm just really impatient. It arrived rather fast!) Red Velvet Art Package. Let the creating begin! I can't wait to make the planner.  

2. Getting to see this girl play a show. She is legit. I laughed so hard between songs, she's so clever and hilarious. I would die to have a stage presence like Danielle Ate the Sandwich. 

3. At the show, I also discovered a new band. They were soooo captivating and chill. It was such a good music night. They are a husband-wife duo called You and Yourn.

Hear them HERE! 

4. All things that involve tea. It's my go to drink at night. 

5. My mom and I painted my new office (more like large closet) at work on Saturday. After playing a late, fun show on Friday, the last thing I wanted to to was get up early, but I think it was well worth it. 

(Before...) 

(During...) 

(After!!!!) 

6. As a musician nerd, I cannot WAIT for this movie. I think a group of us are going to make a night of it. 

(Sidenote: Jack White is the Man)

7. The fact that Ryan and I get to play this show this Friday. :)

8. Having an excuse to wear these again...it will be colder soon.

9. This place. Too bad I can't just buy a cheap plane ticket with my man and take a little trip. I've really been missing the northwest these days. 

10. This goes without being said...but this cute boy. :) 

Happy Monday! 

I'M ON THE RADIO!

Yesterday, our friend told me that she had heard my song on the local college radio station. I've also heard the station play two different songs of my mine as well today! It's a strange feeling to hear yourself on the radio, even if it is just a local college radio station. 

Help me out! Go request to hear Baily Stauffer played on KCSU of Fort Collins. It would mean the world to me!

Stir Fry and Red Velvet Art

(My adorable husband and I. Notice the massive dents in my cheeks. I used to hate those dimples with undying passion when I was a kid.) 

I'm finally beginning to not feel like death and was able to go to work today. I love my life. Seriously. I am immensely blessed by job, my husband, and nights where we can just chill and rent a movie. It's nights like this when we make our favorite dish....STIR FRY! So good. It is nice to cook a meal, which we don't do nearly enough. And by cook a meal, I mean, my husband takes care of most of the cooking and I'm in charge of the brown rice. :) 

              

*THE MOST PERFECT MEAL EVER* 

And in some EVEN MORE exciting news.....I made a couple purchases today that make me want to jump out of my seat and start creating stuff. One blog that I have been following for a long time now is A Beautiful Mess, the blog home of Elsie. She is so inspiring and I finally decided to purchase some of her awesome creations. I can't wait to receive them in the mail.
