Lunch with Friends

On Saturday I had the real treat of eating lunch with three of my sweet friends from life (preschool, kindergarten, middle school, high school, college...you get the idea). We enjoyed an afternoon in the sun eating Amsterdam turkey wraps and catching up on jobs, married life, grad school, and who from high school was having babies. It's not often that I get to see these ladies so it was great to be able to get together for a while. I forgot to take a picture at lunch (I know, I'm trying) but I did manage to get a picture with Alison in front of Toomers while we were walking around downtown after lunch.

Yay for great friends, good food, and good weather!

"She packed up her potential and all she had learned, grabbed a cute pair of shoes and headed out to change a few things"

I went shopping with my mom on Friday and bought a full sequin black dress. Taylor swift style. And a FABULOUS pair of black patten leather pumps. This is going to be the start of a beautiful friendship...

 

Homeward Bound

I was lucky enough to get to go home this weekend and hang out with my wonderful Mom and some pretty amazing friends. On Thursday after class, Reg and I backed up the car and headed east. Reggie didn't have the most enjoyable ride. As can be seen my his dramatic pose here...

What a ham. 

When we finally rolled into the Burn we were greeted these fabulous banners linning College Street:

It was good to be back in the land of Auburn Fans. War Eagle.

January snow brings February flowers?

My sweet cousin made me a beautiful headband/pin for Christmas. She made these great fabric flowers and then pinned them onto an elastic headband so that you can unpin them from the headband and put them on shirts/hats/bags/whatever the heck you want. She is so talented and creative!

Well, today I was wearing a pretty boring purple tee that I've had for years and I decided to spice it up a bit by pinning the flowers on it. It was a great success! Just what the shirt needed and I got several complements on it.

Yay for creativity! Thanks Ellen! :)

"No soup for you!"

To all you Seinfeld fans out there, They now sell soup from the soup nazi in Publix! Of course I bought it.

In other news, Publix BOGO will be the death of me. I now have twice as much food as I planned on buying because it was all buy one, get one free! I have grocery store issues.

Sunday Sunshine

I was too busy enjoying the outdoors to take pictures on Sunday. Here is a pretty good representation of what I felt like...

Water Babies

I had a great weekend! And Saturday was especially great because I got to see some people who are very important to me. My second family, the Kings, were in town this weekend because Erin has a swim meet in T-town. I got up Saturday morning to go watch her swim and she was FANTASTIC! I've never been to a kids swim meet before and I was very impressed by the amount of work these kids put into it and what great athletes  they are. Here's a pic of the little munchkin in action!

After the meet I went to lunch with the Kings, then took Reggie on a walk with the boy, then brought Reggie and the Kings to my favorite park on the river and watched the sunset. It couldn't have been better! I love great weather and catching up with dear friends!
