Dear Target

As always, thanks for being home to the best 5 dollars I have spent all day.

($2.50 for the super cute bowl and $2.50 for the essential giant bag of candy corn to go in it.)

Love,
Juliana

The Break Up

Dear January:

We are soooo over.  And it's not me, it's you.  Also, February's been calling me, and I've decided to take him back.  Statistically, he treats me marginally better than you do.  So, best wishes in your future endeavors.  I seriously hope that someday we can be friends.

Love,
Juliana

Editor's Note(s):
1.  You would think that I would be over writing letters to inanimate objects/intangible things/months of the year...You know, since it is the oldest trick in the blogging book.  But I still like doing it, and it's my blog, so what I say goes.  Thank you for your patience.

2.  I can (almost) promise you that this will be the last time you hear me complain about winter...This year...I've got some tricks up my sleeve to help me get through the rest of these winter months.  More to come.

Note to Self

Dear Self:
If you someday find yourself with a little girl, please buy her this dress from Etsy

If not, look into having it made in size grown up.

With love,
your 2010 self

Dear Utah,

Thanks for becoming a state all those many years ago, so that Reo could have an extra day off work to spend with us enjoying all that you have to offer.

Like hometown carnivals, complete with Holden's very first (somewhat ghetto) carnival ride.

And the scone Reo talks about all year long.

Super fun family swim days,

And enjoying S'mores using the world's most giant marshmallows.

Thanks again, can't wait until next year!

Love, The Mannings

A Love Letter

Dear Google Reader:
Hello beautiful. Where have you been all my life?
Thank you for helping me do twice the blog stalking in half the time.
Hugs and Kisses
Juliana

Dear Fall...

Hello, you. Can I just say how much I enjoy your autumn-y goodness?
I love your soups...
Your pumpkin bagels from Einsteins...
Your allowing me to have my windows open all day and sleep under my blanket again at night...
That I get to buy sweaters for TWO people now. And I L.O.V.E sweaters...
That I am only 3 short weeks away from my favorite production of the year, Thriller...
So, pretty much your overall delightfulness...

Now, when the time comes, if you can just tell your pesky friend Winter to get lost, you and I will be best friends for life. Promise.

Love, Juliana

P.S. If you could not tell Summer we had this talk, that would be awesome. Thanks!
