i'm back!

Sorry readers for the lack of posting last week, I was out for a family emergency. My grandfather was diagnosed with Guillain-Barre syndrome which is a strange and very rare case basically where your body's immune system attacks your nervous system leaving you paralyzed {read more in depth here}. Luckily it is curable, it's just a very long and slow progress. Needless to say, keep him in your thoughts and prayers!

I've been playing catch up over the week, but got a break Thanksgiving Day to spend some time with the family! Friday I spent the morning shopping . . . did any of y'all score some awesome deals?!?! I sure did!

I had a BIG football weekend! My highschool alma mater landed in the championship game which they will be playing in the beautiful Bryant-Denny Stadium this Saturday. Can't wait to see the baby bro play! AND the game ending rivaly week was Alabama v. Auburn. Roll Tide to that . . . Bama won 42-14!!! Now if only I can score a ticket to the National Championship game down in NOLA {cough, cough Mom, that would be a GREAT Christmas present}!

I also send my apologies to my Pinterest followers, I have been obsessing over Polyvore. Check it out if you haven't already. It's a neat website where you can shop/organize outfits. Here are some of my favorite outfits . . .










Even though the Christmas music has been playing on my iPod for a few weeks now, I've just recently come across this rendition by Drew Holcomb and the Neighbors. If you're in the Birmingham area, they're playing at Workplay December 14th {more information here}!

weekend roundup

One thing I learned this weekend . . . friends uplift the soul. Not that I didn't know that already, but I realized how blessed I am with an incredibly group of friends. Here's a photo from our tail gate on Saturday . . . let's just not mention the game other than the fact that there's still a shot at #14.


Best Friends.

Hope this song brightens your Monday just a little bit!


Yesterday was Meredith's 22nd birthday, so pictures to come soon! And thanks to Kari for all the pictures since I can't ever remember to bring mine out.
