Hola friends!
Happy Monday :)
How was everyones weekend? Ours was all over the place! On Friday, me and Billy stayed in and watched Moneyball together. We liked it, but both agreed it wasn't spectacular. Saturday, I went and did some serious shopping damage on things for our house. I got new pillows {chevron}, new lamps, and a huge floor length mirror for our bedroom. The Christmas decorations were finally taken down, too. 'Bout time. Saturday evening, we attended the annual Catholic Social Services dinner party. My Dad's best friend invites us and it's a nice excuse to get all dolled up and fancy for an evening. :) After the party, we went and met up with our friends for a going away party. My friend Jim is moving to Kansas and we had one last night out with him. Alicia and Holly even met up with us.. love those girls! On Sunday, it was two of my nieces' combined birthday party. I haven't had time to upload pictures yet, but will share when I do!
Here's a big photo dump of our weekend...

ReplyDeleteLook at your pup, love him!!! You look amazing in the top pic, green is good for you! Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteSeriously, what am I going to do without Picnik? I don't know how the heck to use Photoshop! Rocky is totally digging the new pillows.

CarissaExplainsItAll
I'm about to start the Hunger Games. I can't wait...everyone I know loves it!
ReplyDeleteP.s. That green dress is ammmazing!
Looks like you had a fun weekend! I love your big mirror (saw it on the twitter, yo) and your new pillows. I need to do some similar updates around the house!
ReplyDeleteThose pillows are so cute! :)
ReplyDeleteSuper sad about picnik. :( I wasn't thrilled with Moneyball either. Looks like a great weekend!
ReplyDeleteLove the pillows! Was so tempted by them at Target! They're adorable! And I really need to start reading Hunger Games! Let us know what you think! :)
ReplyDeleteI have heard so much about The Hunger Games lately. I'm not a huge science fiction/fantasy reader though so I'm not sure I'd like it.
ReplyDeleteOmg the bowtie...PRECIOUS! LOVING your green dress, ma'am, AND those pillows.
ReplyDeleteI, too, am super depressed Picnik is going away. What the hell. WHY??!!
I've heard a lot about those Hunger Games books. Like Twilight, I refuse to even jump on that train because I know I'll be just as addicted as the next girl...aka: even MORE unproductive than I already am. (hence: me commenting on blogs while I'm at work...)
Vicious cycle I tell ya!
So I was convinced at dinner this weekend to read The Hunger Games! I hope I like it!
ReplyDeleteJust missing one photo .... a picture of US! So sad I missed you .. I'll be back soon. Promise!
again...green...YOUR COLOR!!! fabulicious!
ReplyDeleteand i love the new pillows and rocky loves them too ;-)

ReplyDeleteHunger Games! It's about time! I read the series in 3 days. I was actually a little mad at myself for doing it. Because when it ended, I didn't have anything else to do. But that QUICKLY changed when volleyball started. FML hahaha! Love and miss you!
