It's true what they say - opposites do attract. And while he may say po-taw-to and I say poh-tay-toh, we do have a few things in common that we share:
Like our love for this:

And right now, THIS:

marta said...

this was so cute! so true: guy vs. girl. good thing we gals can balance out their silly minimalism. glad those sox can keep you rooting for the same team. although your own little team is much more adorable!

Bridget said...

I loved this. So true. Although Nathan's beauty regime is getting more complex now that he has discovered Kiehl's products. I guess that's what happens when you have a gay brother. :)

I recognize those bedside tables too! Glad you still have them. And the pictures of your kids are so adorable.

Lisa said...

I absolutely love this post!
I can so totally relate!
I think we must have a lot in common!
And your purses...awesome!

Here here on the Sox thing...

I'd be worried if his beauty regimen was anywhere close...and only Miggs has more shoes than his wife. Go Jacoby!

Girlfriend. I'm SERIOUSLY coveting those handbags.

And are those really ALL of your shoes? Please tell me that they're only a small sample of your shoe wardrobe. A girl with a purse collection like that MUST have more than . . . Oh. Alright. Many were stacked. That's about 20 pairs of shoes. I guess that's enough. ;-)

That picture of your daughter is breathtaking.

That post is absolutely adorable! Stumbled upon your blog and have enjoyed your writings.

Wendi said...

You are so clever! Loved the comparison. I wear Mac makeup too. I love it.

Unknown said...

And my rebuttal to that is go Rockies. :-)

Annie said...

GO Sox, is right!
Perfect post...love the visuals. (Although I do like Josh's Danish flag...Greg's take on decorating is unframed posters, or it was before we got married.)

mahina said...

i love this post! i may have to steal it when i get more time! opposites do attract, but it is a good thing!

Alison Wills said...

Too funny, I laughed out loud with the last pic of your news source (love it!)...great post!!

mama jo said...

love "the soup", i'm with you all the way on this blog...plus, if he had all the same stuff...where would you put it?

Jake said...

cute cute cute! you guys are opposite in almost every way. that's probably why I like you so much. hehehehe

Unknown said...

You have really cute stuff! Your purse and shoe collections are what I WANT mine to look like! So true, though, that opposites attract and somehow things work out!

Melissa Angert {All Things Chic} said...

okay... i think you may be living in a parrallel universe....

we should hang out then our husbands can talk about boring things and we can discuss important things like why j-lo refuses to announce she's pregnant when it is totaly obvious that she is.

Holly said...

Brilliant post Stie! Love the comparisons--they are true in this house too. Isn't it funny how (most) husbands/guys are totally content with their limited "stuff"? I don't get that at all.

We were possibly separated at birth. I'm thinking of renewing my subscription to People so I don't have to go out to get it anymore.

Pedaling said...

love the color of your walls - and yes- we love 'em (those men of ours) and balance is good - but some days i just wonder...?

Polly said...

If Jim had his way we would be living in a lodge or tent. So sad for him that the only thing in this house is his gigantic elk head, that I've tried for years to decorate around.

Betty said...

I stumbled onto your blog through a comment you left on someone else`s blog, and I love it! The pictures you posted could have been taken from our house, because many things are so much alike.... like the breakfast our husbands eat, the bedside tables and the movie choices! Anyway I`ll be checking back soon. Great post!

Jake said...

p.s. Stie, I am so happy to see so many high heels in your closet! You go tall girl! You are my long-legged idol!

Paige said...

I have organizational purse envy.

Lisa said...

I left you a little something over at my blog because I loved this post so much!!

Oh this is good stuff!

So much fun to see that Aaron and I are not the only ones who are happy and in love but are complete opposites in a lot of things! :)

Very cute! Very hilarious! And so very true!

Stephanie said...

Cool post! Very fun!

Family Adventure said...

The coolest pictures ever. Although I have to profess a love for HIS Danish flag! :)

And I am in awe of your organization skills. The shoes, the purses, it all looks very organized.
