I've Got Big News!

Fast forward three months (since it has been about that long since I've last posted), and drum roll please....

I signed a contract on a house today! 

I'm so excited, I kind of feel like I've been walking around in a fog for the past two days.

I accepted the counter last night, and after jumping up and down, doing my happy dance, and thanking the dear Lord that I had a home...I was too tired to do anything else!

Lets just pray the next 30 days go smoothly!

Until next time,

Roll Tide Roll

Yes, I found houndstooth nail polish, and yes I had to use it. 

In my defense, they didn't have maroon!

Office Chair Renovation

 I've been busy, and you would never guess why..

I've been getting a little crafty around the office lately! After traveling to Salt Lake City and to Dallas, I've had my work cut out for me in the office but I'm beginning to see the light at the end of the tunnel. The stacks of paperwork are trimming down while the decor in the office is trimming up.  The hideous maroon chair pictured on the left was the chair in the office before I arrived..little did I know it would eventually become mine.  Seven dollars worth of fabric and one large back ache later, I'm proud to call the chair on the right mine. I secretly wanted zebra fabric but considering my dad and I share an office, I might not have a chair if it came back a zebra.  So of course this was as "manly" as I could possibly allow myself to go (I mean, after all it is brown!).  I've got more crafts up my sleeve, but it will have to wait until I have more time! Headed to B'ham to move this weekend.

Until then,

Happy Birthday LT!

Happy Birthday to my best friend, Leigh Taylor!!

Hope you've had a wonderful day!  We will have to celebrate very soon!

Heading to Salt Lake City in the morning and will be back shortly after to update you all!

Hope you all have a wonderful weekend!

Obagi

For those of you that know me, you know that I'm always on the lookout for great face products.  

Well, one of my sister's friends suggested a product called Obagi.  It's a wrinkle cream that works by peeling your face.  So in the end it gets rid of freckles, etc. and gives you a good complexion.  So of course I had to run out and get it.

Let me be the first to say that I'm embarrassed to go out in public with my face looking like it does.  No one warned me.  Not only does it make your face red and dry but it also makes your skin peel.  Yes, peel.  Week one completed and it looks as if I have a terrible sunburn.  My face hurt so bad two nights ago that I was almost in tears because it was so dry.  So I've begun researching (just a little late) the product and it has a six week "ugly" period; it takes a complete six weeks for the product to work but apparently you will have new, glowing skin when it is over.  These people even have support groups for the product-please tell me it's not that bad!  So I'll keep you all up to date on the status of how this is working.  And if you dare, venture out and get your own! 

Week one down, five more to go!

Congratulations Mark and Laura!

 One of my best friends, Laura, got married last weekend in Vicksburg and it couldn't have been a more perfect weekend! Laura was one of the most beautiful brides I've ever seen and I couldn't be happier for her and Mark, what a perfect couple! 

A Little Bit of Everything

Here are a few pictures from our recent vacay:

 The meat market in Progresso:

As we drove away, the lady proceeded to pick up an entire red snapper and dance around the shop with it.

Pure class I tell you.

I sometimes wish that vacations were never ending.  I would like to say that sleep, drink, eat, repeat just about summed up our week.  Considering my pants wouldn't button the last night we were there due to the fact of over-indulgence throughout the week, I'd consider it a successful vacation.  A big thank you to Aunt Andrea for keeping my sweet little Soph! You are the best, Sophie misses you already!
