EVERYDAY AT 5


or whenever I get home for the day and Billy gets home before I do, 
I pull in the driveway and get that extra special warms my heart
kinda feeling when I see this...




Billy tells Rocky "mommy is home" and lets him off his leash
and then I see this little fur ball running as fast as he can towards me
and all is right in the world.

No matter what kind of day I'm having, 
No matter how bad of a "Monday" it was,
it all erases in this moment and I'm smiling from ear to ear.

It's the little things and is surely my favorite way to come home.

...dogs are the best, aren't they?


*Notice anything different around KC&CO? My friend and the fabulous blogger/designer, Whitney from I Wore Yoga Pants, beautified my blog a bit! She knew exactly what I wanted (a simple but bold look and easier to read/navigate) and is wonderful to work with. Not to mention, she is hysterical and has me laughing out loud at her blog posts and twitter almost daily. You should go check her out: HERE!

Hope you have a happy Monday now!
and remember: it's the little things.

PS-I have a pretty cool DIY project and recipe to share this week..so make sure you come back. or else.

  4. I love when we get home and all the dogs go crazy barking when they hear the keys turn in the door. Then when we come in, they stop, see that it's us, and they start their excited barking, tails wagging - too cute.

  12. That is theeee sweetest video! My dogs (well, one of them) barks when she gets really excited so she stands inside the garage door barking and jumping and flailing uncontrollably. The barking I could do without, haha :)

  13. Love the new look!!

    And I completely understand how Rocky makes you feel! Since I'm here at school I don't get to see my sweet girl but every couple of weeks and when I see her running up the driveway when I pull in..all my worries just go away. Dogs are the best, hands down. Always will be!

  17. That is too cute! My boyfriend does the exact same thing.. I call him when I'm about to be home and he tells our puppy, "Mommy's home!" and opens the door and he comes sprinting to me. Best feeling in the world! :)

  18. Omg that is so cute! Lily gets excited but she won't even jump off the bed when I get home so she must not love me as much as Rocky loves you ;)
    Also, Whitney? I die for Miss Thang! She is too sweet and funny!

  19. haha awww!! My cat is the same way. Whoever is the first home, gets the best "greeting" from him-- he hears footsteps on the back deck and he dives off the dining room chair he's ALWAYS sleeping on, and RUNS to the backdoor (pausing for a huge quick stretch by the kitchen door) and then continues to run.. he purrs SO hard he squeaks and his whole little body shakes, and then I get down on all 4's and he makes passes at me, squeaking, purring, and rubbing against me.. until I ask him if he wants "Deeeenur!?" and he runs to his food bowl. so. flippin'. adorable.

    Coming home to a pet who is happy to see you is the best thing ever

  28. Omgosh melt my hear Katie! :) Mine just bark like crazy because they are in the crate (well, when I worked for my old job anyway) but sometimes, I'll leave & say if Drew is home, Furlee will sit by the front door until I get home. Dogs (esp. poms ;)) are the best. Love this.
