Life via iPhone, again...


Hey, y'all!

I did better this time, only 6 days since my last post...I'll take it.

I'm currently sitting on my bed, cozied up under a nice blanket, puppies in tow, big slippers keeping me warm, and watching Christmas movies while it's sleeting outside. It's a little early in the season where we live for it to be sleeting, typically it doesn't start this weather until Christmas or a little after..sometimes even as late as February. But hey, I've seen crazier. Last year we had the most beautiful white Christmas you could imagine, and I'm hopeful for a repeat!

Let's do another phone explosion, shall we? Albeit, my life has not been exciting in the past week at ALL (honestly y'all, it's been nothing but boxes, packing, sleeping, working, repeat. But let's take a look...



Even though we have been extremely busy with moving, we still make time to spend time with our family and most importantly to spend time together. It's very important ladies to show your men how much you care for them! Even though they don't express their feelings as much as we do, they still enjoy feeling wanted just as much as women. 


We had a few friends over to the house to have a final farewell to the house. We had a blast with the people who helped us create all of our memories in our old house!


Holiday finds =) How adorable is this towel?


Mimosas, anyone? It makes packing go by SO much quicker!


We have been wanting to try these for a long time, and never seemed to pick them up at the store. While I wouldn't recommend these every day {pretty rich..}, they were an excellent stressful week treat!


Furniture shopping with my husband..I guess this is where all the guys hang out while the women shop?! At least it got him out of my hair! 


Oh look...more boxes! 


What's a chilly, sleeting afternoon without my favorite candle of all time and a nice Chai drink?


The first pieces of furniture we purchased for our new home. The chairs are the brand Threshold and they are by Target! They were a great deal. My husband actually picked them out, maybe I underestimated him... ;)


There was plenty nephew loving when he was in town. We don't get to see him again until Christmas which is a total bummer, but we are so thrilled we got to love all over him! 


Well you guys, next week is Thanksgiving, which means a 3 day work week! Can I get an amen for that? I'm thrilled. Although I am extremely excited that it's a short week, it's also going to be CRAZY hectic {aren't the holidays always? Add moving on top of that..not our wisest decision but we are having a blast with it..}

I hope you all enjoy your holiday with food, friends, and family! I'm off to cuddle up with the puppies, drink the glass of wine my husband just poured me, and watch some more Christmas movies..'tis the season, right?

Happy Thanksgiving, lovies! XoXo..

As of Late..

Hello, lovelies!

I'm such a slacker, I know..I haven't posted in over a week!

Let me start off by saying that I had every intention of posting...and then life happened. I have so much to share with you! Instead of me writing out long paragraphs explaining what prevented me from staying in touch, how about I just empty out the contents of my iPhone for you.

They say a picture is worth a thousand words...

Sick husband survival kit

Remember how last time I told you Charles and I had plans last weekend to go to Fayetteville, visit his grandmother, tailgate, and watch the game with friends? Well my dear husband caught the stomach flu. We had a very hard, long weekend. Luckily I get the awesome wife award for getting him soup from Fuji {the only broth he will eat} and a bunch of other necessities. I also disinfected the entire house..I have no time to get a stomach bug

Cran-brrr-itas came out...kept me occupied


Took care of spoiled rotten puppies


I became obsessed with vanilla and chocolate chai's..

Drumroll please....NEW HOUSE!

So here is what took up most of my time last week. Aside from training at work all week AND our company changing it's name, which caused a headache during working hours, Charles and I purchased a house!! It has been a hectic and truly exciting week! We are blessed beyond measure. We anticipate closing on December 6th {SO close!} and then moving in before the holidays! My birthday is Dec. 3rd, so happy birthday to me! Best present ever.

The wedding presents waiting to move into the new house!


I got the opportunity to go enjoy a nice evening with one of the best friends a girl could ask for!

I'm sorry I slacked last week. I can't promise I will be {too} much better throughout the coming weeks, but I will try my hardest! Please bear with me, the holidays are a busy time as is, and add moving into a new house on top of that? I'll be living on coffee, fumes, and pure excitement for the next few weeks...

Stay tuned..XO
