What I’m Loving Wednesday

By 17 Comments

It’s Wednesday!
Today is going to be a super busy day! I have three foster care visits, and a meeting with my boss. I think I’m going to need a long nap after this day is over!
Here’s what I’m loving this week!
I’m loving my awesome new interns at work! They are so precious, and I know we are going to have a great semester with them!
I’m loving that I get to visit ALL of my foster babies this week! Getting to see them is the absolute best part of my job!
I’m loving this movie I got last night!
It is based on the book by Karen Kingsbury. She is my favorite author, and I have been DYING for one of her books to be made into a movie. This was one of my favorite books, and I rushed out to buy the movie as soon as I got off work yesterday, and I already watched it last night. Such a great movie, but so emotional. Lots of tears!
I’m loving that I got to spend Saturday with Neely!
And, I’m loving this song!

“You Eat Like a Baby Dinosaur”

Finally, my weekend recap!
Oh my goodness, I had the best Saturday with Neely, y’all!
I got up super early on Saturday morning and drove down to Dallas. When I got there, seriously, it was like I’d known her forever! We got ready and went to Nordstrom Rack and then Whole Foods for lunch.
After lunch, she drove us around Dallas, showing me where she grew up and went to school, and some of the super fancy parts of Dallas.
We stopped by Sprinkles (my first time!) and got cupcakes. We took Lindsey with us!
We went to the mall and shopped for awhile, then went to Studio Movie Grill to see No Strings Attached!
It was such a great movie! It was Neely’s second time to see it, and I definitely want to see it again. It was so funny, and if you haven’t seen it, you need to ASAP! It has the best quotes, and we’ve both been quoting it a lot! :)
After the movie, we went to an awesome Mexican restaurant Mi Cocina. Y’all know I love my Mexican food! We had some queso for Lindsey!
After dinner, we went back to Neely’s house and watched Mean Girls.
Cannot even tell you how much I love this movie! I can’t watch it without thinking about Tara!
Unfortunately, I had to leave super early on Sunday morning. The trip definitely went by too fast, but it is definitely happening again very soon.
Neely and I have been Blog/Twitter friends for awhile. Neely is just so precious, and it was so much fun to be able to hang out and be real life friends! It was also really great to be able to talk about blogging and bloggers. I feel like people that aren’t a part of the blogging community don’t get what blogging is and how awesome it is. It’s awesome to be able to talk to someone who knows exactly I’m talking about! :)
Neely, I had such a great time! This has to happen again very soon! Love you dear!

Fun Fridays
Yay! It’s Friday!
I’m super happy it’s Friday because, well, this week has kinda stunk. Monday off was great. Tuesday work was exhausting. Wednesday was migraine day, and yesterday was a snow day. Plus, the weather is being uncooperative again, and it’s looking like my awesome Saturday with Neely is going to be postponed AGAIN!
The only real highlight of my week was this.
No more glasses!
Yippee!
My eye doc said the eyes are better, so I finally get to ditch my yucky glasses. I’m SO happy!

This is super random, but my bro showed me this video, and I needed to share it with you.

Oh, and my momma did a post on her blog about me, and she’s linking it up in Kelly’s Show Us Your Singles. It’s kinda awkward, but hey, Leslie met her fiance through Kelly’s last SUYL! :)
I hope you dears have a great weekend!

Top 2 Tuesday-Outfits for Spring

By 9 Comments

Today’s Top 2 Tuesday is outfits for spring.
I am SO ready for spring, and I’m loving that most stores have their spring lines out already.

I am loving these two looks from Gap.

I just love cute cardigans for spring, and this one is super cute!

I basically live in cute solid colored tops. I love to wear them with dress pants to work and with jeans for play.

Long Weekend Update

By 12 Comments

Hey y’all! I’m so thankful to have had a three day weekend, even though things were a bit crazy. Friday night, Teddie and I went shopping and went to a movie. We saw Black Swan.

I’m not sure how I feel about it. It was weird and creepy. Also, there were six men, probably late 30s, that came into the movie together. They enjoyed the movie just a bit too much. It was pretty stupid.
Saturday I got up super early to go take a CPR class with my office and some of our foster parents. When that was over, I came home and laid in my bed the rest of the evening watching Grey’s Anatomy.
Such an exciting Saturday night!
Sunday was church and LTC with my kiddos. I had Q group after, then came home and watched/tweeted the Golden Globes.
A few of my red carpet favorites…

Today, I laid in bed watching Grey’s Anatomy again for quite awhile. I’d planned to make some headbands today, but ended up cleaning my room and bathroom. The bro and I cooked dinner, then I gave in and watched The Bachelor. I hadn’t planned on watching it this season because I don’t like Brad, but after reading everyone’s tweets the last couple of weeks, I broke down and watched. Oh my goodness, these girls are crazy!
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend!

Fun Friday!

Fun Fridays
It’s Friday!
I’m starting the weekend with a 1/2 day off today! Super exciting, but it’s because I’m working part of the day tomorrow. My office plus some of our foster parents are doing our CPR recertification, so my day will be starting at about 7 am tomorrow!
First on the agenda for the afternoon-NAP! I didn’t sleep much last night, and what’s better to do on an afternoon off that sleep?
Teddie and I are hanging out tonight, maybe doing dinner and a movie. We’re thinking Tangled, How Do You Know, Black Swan, or Country Strong. Any suggestions?
I also have Monday off, so I’m thinking about spending the day crafting, maybe making some more of these!
I’m hoping to also get caught up on my blog reading. Haven’t had a lot of time this week to read. I look forward to catching up on all of you!
Also, Neely, Jen, & Caroline are very close to some big follower numbers! Help them get there by following them! Go now!
I hope you dears all have a wonderful weekend!
