Weekend Happenings

Why is it that the weekend flies by but the week days seem to last so long?! Chris and I both commented on how fast last weekend passed. We woke up Friday morning and before we knew it, Monday had already rolled around.

Friday night, we met at our outdoor shopping plaza, BridgeStreet. While Chris returned some shoes at Clarks, I hit up Loft. They had a great sale going on where I score this top and this dress for $35 total! For some reason, the sales are always so much better there in store than online. IMG_0737

After our shopping trip, we hit our local Mexican restaurant. Its a sign we eat there too much when the waiter already knows our order when we walk in the door. Ha!


After dinner, we went to my favorite place around..Stem and Stein. It is a charming craft beer bar and wine cellar. They have local musicians that play acoustic on weekend nights. Its laid back and seriously my favorite spot. They have a huge patio that I cant wait to get back on once the temps warm up just a little more.

When we got there, I told Chris what I was considering ordering and headed to the restroom. When I came back to my seat, this is what greeted me. It was HUGE compared to Chris’s glass. Hahaha! I had one man ask me if there was a reason my glass was so big or if it just came like that. Needless to say the size was definitely noticeable!


Saturday morning, we had our weekly date through the Starbucks drive through. The warm temps called for windows down, music up, and iced coffee.


Later that morning, this pretty girl (and her baby Lucy) came to spend the day with Uncle Chris and Aunt Kelsey. We played beauty shop, cooked lunch, made a trip to the park, played some more, took a nap, and watched Disney Jr.


After the little one went to bed, Chris grilled us burgers. He is seriously the best hamburger maker in the world! Next time he cooks them, I will be sure to get the recipe and post it. They are delicious!!


Sunday was for being lazy and sushi. We went out for lunch and then went to visit our friends Stacey and Allen and tour their new home. Its gorgeous to say the least. We are so excited for them!!

I have already started the countdown to this coming up weekend. We are almost half way there!



Hello Friday! Today’s favorites include a few shopping deals I stumbled upon last night. It seems that when I am just browsing is when I find the best deals but if I am in a crunch and need something for a certain occasion, I can never find anything! Is that just me?

I noticed that all of the online prices are higher than what I paid in store. Sometimes it is worth dragging yourself to the mall to save a few dollars.

  1. Loft Crepe Bell Skirt (I paid $17.95 plus tax)
  2. Rampage Oxie Pump (I paid $18.80 plus tax)
  3. Joe Fresh Ruffle Sleeve Top (I paid $9.99 plus tax)
  4. Victoria Secret Allover Lace Bikini (FREE thanks to VS free panty card)
  5. Madden Girl Ginger Booties (I paid $24.63 plus tax)
