Fall Blog Swap – What I Got!

I participated in a fall blog swap a couple weeks ago with Kodi.  My partner was Ashley…I think her blog is private though (sad face)  She got me some awesome goodies….

  • A Pumpkin Caramel Latte candle – It smells so good I want to lick it!
  • A Starbucks gift card
  • And some OPI nail polish called “Espresso your style”
This chick knows me well eh???
THANK YOU SO MUCH ASHLEY!
You are the best & I can’t wait to see if you love your goodies too!
Today I had the day off of work!  Thank you Mr. Columbus Day 🙂
So I woke up to this cutie patootie…..
We watched Elmo’s World about penguins at least 5 times today.  We’ve read some books, played, thrown Daddy’s XBox games in the trash….oops!  Good thing I found them!  Ha ha!
I love that I got to spend the day with my lil guy since I don’t get to very often….I would love to do this every day, but gotta make a buck I guess.  Just cherishing every minute even more so!

We went to Super Target & got groceries.  I found Connor playing in the toilet water & also standing in the shower with all his clothes on……..under the running water!  Wardrobe change!

Fun times I tell ya!

He loves loves LOVES to waller in our bed.  He just drowns in all the pillows and bounces all around.  It really is one of his favorite things to do EVER.

 We’ve had a blast today.  I love you my lil buddy.  You are the bestestest kid ever.
 Oh and here is my espresso nails!!!!
Oooooohhhh!!!!!! Aaaaaaahhhhh!!!!!!
Everyone have a lovely Monday!

Wedding Day Weekend!

This weekend we celebrated the wedding of Aunt Loyce and Garry.  Loyce is Terence’s Aunt and she’s been such a blessing in our lives.  It was such a joyous occasion and we are so happy for Loyce and Garry and pray that God will bless their marriage for many years! 
I had the honor of taking their wedding photos.  I always get nervous when doing this because it’s such an important day in people’s lives.  I want everything to look perfect.  Let me just say this had to be one of the hardest events I’ve taken photos at!  Everything was red and orange….and in photographer lingo that is “not good lighting”….ha ha!!!  Well, regardless the wedding was beautiful and I hope the photos did the day justice.  We love you both dearly and wish you all the best!

The happy couple

Connor was supposed to be a ring bearer…..BUT a few minutes before walking down the isle he had a nuclear meltdown….ugh….what do you do??? 

Cousins
Cupcakes 🙂
The Fam
Cake Balls
The lovely bride & groom

Christmas Shopping in Cowtown

Last night Connor and I attended Christmas in Cowtown here in Fort Worth.  It was SOOOOOOOOOOOO much fun, if you ever get the chance to go you have to!  It’s probably the best holiday gift market I’ve ever been to.  Honestly I was a bit overwhelmed with all the goodies around me….I saw hundreds of cute items. 

So let me share a few of my favorites from last night 🙂

Here are Connor and I about to get our shopping on!

So many cute children boutiques
Holiday Stockings
– Custom printed cups for any occasion
– Silver serving pieces
– Owls galore

I also met the gals behind Lima Bean Kids!  They were SO nice….you may remember I did a giveaway awhile back HERE!  It was so nice to meet you both and your things are just adorable!

– Sparkly jewelry
– Lots of cute fall and Christmas garden decor

This is truly a Fort Worth Christmas tree 🙂

We had a great time and remember Christmas in Cowtown runs through :

So get your friends together and make a date this weekend to SHOP and start marking things off your Christmas list… I think you’ll even find a little something for yourself too 😉
HAPPY CHRISTMAS SHOPPING EVERYONE!!!

Having a "THee" Time :-)

Tonight my co-worker and friend Kindra and I attended a blog event at THee.  It’s the cutest little shop in Dallas.  They invited a bunch of local bloggers to come look around and have a meet and greet.  We had a fabulous time!
