Weekend recap and meeting my first bloggy friend!

This weekend was very full and fun!! Friday night I treated my sister and I to dinner at Carrabba’s. Had a giftcard and I was feeling generous, ha… and then we had fun hanging out in Wal-Mart, it’s the place to be on a Friday night you know, haha!! :) We were going to see the movie The Blind Side but I think we’re going to go see it tomorrow night. I have heard so much about that movie and want to see it so bad.

Saturday got up and met my BFF Melissa to go running at 9am. I should say walk/run and it made me wonder how the world I am ever going to survive a 5k…. but I’ll get there. We all have to start somewhere, right? After that I met up with one of my co-workers Cristina and ate lunch with her and her twin girls at Chick-Fil-A and then headed to Target to shop because we picked a couple of kids from an Angel tree to buy Christmas gifts for. It was fun and didn't get any pictures, bummer. Then Saturday night we did Christmas with my brother and his family because they are leaving to go to the mountains this week with my sister-in-law’s family, and so they won’t be here for Christmas. And then after that a bunch of people came over and we had family game night. Can you believe again I didn’t get one single picture? So not like me at all, ha. We had a blast playing Catch Phrase. I heart my family, like HUGELY heart them!!!

Sunday was the highlight of my weekend.I spent Saturday night at my mom’s house and went to church with her and the hubby on Sunday. Here’s some pictures in front of the Christmas tree at the church.





They have it decorated so beautiful. Then we ate lunch at Nature’s Table at the church. Can you believe they have one inside the church? That had me sold, haha… And then I was off to meet my first blogger friend Lauren...

Lauren, meet Lauren..ha :)


She was as sweet and precious as I had pictured. She and her family are here visiting Disney, so we visited for about an hour or so before her little man Dawson needed to get back to the hotel for a nap. A trip to Disney is enough to overwhelm any little boy, ha.

How cute is he??

Sorry, I look kind of goofy in this picture, LOL!


I bought him a toy and he was having so much fun with it!








Lauren, I had such a great time seeing you and your family. I can't wait to see you again in February when I come to Nashville.

So can ya'll believe the news about actress Brittany Murphy over the weekend? So sad and so young. Just goes to show we don't know how long our days are numbered and to make each day count.

Also I'm going to a Christmas party where we have to bring a gag gift. I was thinking of bringing scratch off lottery tickets. What do ya'll think? Any suggestions??

Happy Monday!!! :)
