nixanadoo blog taglines are silly

Nix eating some KORMA, that's right.

Nix is a 20 something princess trying to survive in this crazy world. Come along for the ride!

This is my blog. It's mostly used to post my photos, but there's also the occasional cooking adventure (usually paired with photos), as well as the occasional post on my opinion of something controversial. I've got a beautiful house and an awesome boyfriend and too many pets and wonderful friends. It's fun in my world.

Nix tries to always recycle.

Nix Smith May 14th, 2008

Because of how far back our house is from the street, we can’t have the county pick up our recycles. I have to bring them in myself. I’m lazy, so sometimes the bags build up… Continue Reading »

Nix and Jeff have some big news!

Nix Smith May 9th, 2008

I’d been waiting to post this until all of my immediate family could be told (I wasn’t trying to shock anyone). After just shy of 7 years of being back in Virginia, I’m leaving the state again! Jeff was offered an amazing job/career opportunity near Baltimore, Maryland (about 3 and a half hours from where we live now), and we will be moving there at the end of July. We will be buying our first house together, an exciting adventure for sure! I’ve started a blog for documenting the home search process, then the move-in, and then our life as home-owners. Once I’ve got a theme and a post or two over there, I’ll post a link.

But that’s what I’ve been sitting on. Not nearly as big as Joriel’s bean, but still exciting!

Nix was turned into a dinosaur with a bobble head.

Nix Smith May 8th, 2008

I love to find silly, original gifts for people. One shopping day I found a little bobble head dinosaur photo frame, and I just had to get it for Jeff to take to work. He loved it as much as I hoped he would! Continue Reading »

Nix and Jeff went to the river.

Nix Smith May 8th, 2008

August 26th 2006. These photos are bittersweet for me. They are some of the best photos I’ve ever taken and I just saved over all of the originals (meaning I don’t have the hi-res copies anymore and those are the ones used to make prints). Suck. Anyway, here are the photos from one of our many visits to the James River. Continue Reading »

Bruce wants the feather.

Nix Smith May 8th, 2008

The day I got Bruce, I was playing with him through the glass at the rescue kitty display at PetSmart with a feather toy, but it never occurred to get him one until almost a year later. August 14th, 2006. Continue Reading »

Nix and Jeff went to PA.

August 11th through 13th, 2006. Every year for my birthday, Jeff and I drive up to PA to visit his parents (they drive down for his birthday). Continue Reading »

Nix, Justin & Lindsay had teppan.

Nix Smith May 8th, 2008

August 9th, 2006. Justin and Lindsay wanted to take me out for a birthday dinner, and I will NEVER turn down teppan cooking. After dinner we realized that Justin had locked his keys in his truck. We walked a few miles to his mom’s work, took her truck back to his apartment, got his spare keys, went back, picked up the truck. Even with all of the extra exercise, it was a really fun night.

Jeff wore Nix’s hat, they hammed it up together, and Oscar was a kitten.

Nix Smith May 8th, 2008

This one’s a mixed bag for you, mostly of pictures of our Oscar when he was still an itty bitty. He’s still so tiny compared to the other four, but, boy, he was SO SMALL! Continue Reading »

Jeff put on a silly hat & had a Bruce.

Nix Smith May 8th, 2008

At some point a few years ago, I found some old storage boxes of mine from 1997 or so. Included in one of said boxes was a silly top hat. Jeff likes silly hats. Continue Reading »
