Blog Awards!

I have recently been given 2 Blog Awards!

Caroline @Jacks & Jimmies tagged me in the 7 facts blog award!
and 
Melanie @Country Roads tagged me in the Sugar Doll Award!

Thanks Girls!
Okay so here are the rules of the award: Once awarded, you must write 7 facts about yourself and then award it to a fellow blogger; make sure to let them know! Also, remember to link back to the one who awarded you!


1. I am a planner. I like to have my day planned out before it begins.. and if something doesn't go according to my plan I get ill. 

2. Being a planner applies to meals too.. I like to know my meal for the next day before going to sleep so I know what to wake up craving! Because let's face it.. you can't be craving tacos and be forced to eat an icky sandwich ;)

3. Pandora is one of the greatest inventions. It makes blogging even more enjoyable. (which I thought was impossible, until I turned on Pandora!)

4. I went facebook free for 2 weeks, and survived. But now I'm BAAACK!! ;)

5. I'm a sucker for anything on sale. Money burns a hole in my pocket.. especially if something is a great deal!

6. I love, love, LOVE Goodwill.. and I'm not ashamed of it! I have gotten so many adorable name brand clothing items there in the past few months for like 3 bucks a piece. Folks, you just can't beat that with a stick! Most things I've gotten still have tags attached, or look hardly worn. So yes, I am a thrifter. You see those people walking out of the thrift store with a huge shopping bag and think to yourself.. "wow, who finds that much to buy in a thrift store?" .. I have recently become of those people. Don't judge.

This jacket is a prime example of a Thrift Store find! only 5 bucks my friends!

7. I am terrified of scalpels. I can hardly stand to watch Grey's.. I have to shield my eyes for the majority of it! haha.. hence, I will NEVER be a doctor or nurse!

So now I tag the following people with the 7 Facts Award!
4. Michelle @ Snapshots
5. Mrs. Bee @ Buzzin Around

And now I'm going to get ready for GLEE!!
Who else is watching tonight?!

Tacky Prom Partaaay!!

Ever wondered what Prom was like in the 1980s?
Saturday night Ally invited me to go with her to her Sunday School class's "Thrift Store/Tacky Prom." 
It was a blast!

Enjoy this blast from the past:

some of the girls!
me & Kayla!
We got our groove on to some old school hits! and then hit up Waffle House for some late night hash browns! All in all.. I've decided dressing up in tacky dresses with 80s make-up makes for a fun night!
Stay tuned for Ally's post because she has tons of great pictures coming!

Hope y'all have all had a great weekend! 
One more exam tomorrow and then I'll be back to my regular blogging! I've missed reading up on everyone!

WILW!

I'm linking up with Jamie 
@This Kind of Love this week for WILW! 

Here are a few things I'm loving:


1. Special K Red Berries Cereal
I look forward to breakfast every morning because of this bowl of deliciousness!


2. Our Church wide Bible Study
Our church is doing a 40-day bible study, and all Sunday School classes are participating.
This book is outstanding, it's perfect for my life at this given moment and explores your relationship not only with Christ, but with others as well. This is the second week doing the study, and I just feel like I get so much out of it! If you need a good bible study to do.. I highly recommend this one!


3. My current nail color

4. I won a giveaway!
I've been wanting a lilly pulitzer agenda for AGES and I won Jenna's giveaway @This is Love
If you haven't checked her blog out you need to! It's adorable!


5. That sweet Savannah came to our apartment this week!
she came and joined us for the Bachelor Monday night and she is one of the sweetest people in the world! Check out her blog if you don't already follow it! 

And I could go on and on.. but I have a lot to get accomplished! So I'll leave it at that!
Don't forget to go link up with Jamie and share what YOU are loving today! :)

Have a great Wednesday!
