Weekend & Bachelor Recap

Quick Weekend Recap
I would've done this post yesterday, but seeing how it was Valentine's Day.. I just thought the post needed sappy pink hearts and a sweet lovey dovey message ;)
So here's my weekend recap:

Saturday night: Daddy has the flu, so I got to be mama's date to the Chamber of Commerce dinner. I know it sounds boring, but I was all over it! I'm game for any chance to dress up in cocktail attire ;) AND it was at Chateau Elan.. creme de la creme of fancy shmancy places in our neck of the woods!

me & mama before we left!

I didn't snap any photos inside the banquet.. because I didn't want to look like a total nerd.. especially since we sat at at table with fancy people I didn't know! haha But the table decorations were amazing! And the food was delicious!

Sunday: Ally & I went to church in Athens.. and then on the way home whizzed into Krispy Kreme. We've been craving it for 3 weeks now.. and unfortunately, the hot doughnut light was off! But they did have cake doughnut holes that were hot and they were delicious! Needless to say, my craving will NOT be satisfied until we get a hot glazed doughnut!


Festive Heart Shaped doughnuts.. and sprinkles!
The goods!
And Bachelor recap:
uhm.. Crazy Michelle is FINALLY gone!! But, she wasn't even crazy last night! Chantal O., I totally think will be the winner. Her and Brad have so much chemistry, but she really needs to chill out with all these tears she sheds each night. It's getting annoying. 

I'm really looking forward to next week though.. I love when they go home to meet the families! And I cannot WAIT to see Emily's precious little girl. I'm just not sure how much longer Emily will stay, she's the sweetest girl in the world.. but their conversations are always so awkward! She doesn't give answers to his questions that keep conversation going.. but we'll see what happens next week! 

What are y'alls thoughts?

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Valentine's Day!
I wish each and every one of you a wonderful day filled with love! 



And to all my fellow single ladies out there.. go buy yourself some chocolate, treat yourself to a delicious dinner, paint your nails, and watch the Bachelor! ;)
(that's what I'll be doing! haha)

Much Love,

Pink Swap!

Let me start by saying...
I love getting packages in the mail.
Having a box addressed to you full of surprises.. life doesn't get much better my friends.

Well I signed up to participate in Hopsy's Pink Swap
(check out her adorable preppy blog if you haven't already)
and I got paired with THE sweetest partner EVER. And we've gotten to be good friends through emails already!
Unfortunately, she doesn't have a blog, but you can find her on twitter! 

And today when I got home...
I had this lovely package from her!


Everything she picked out was absolutely perfect for me! It's crazy that we just met, and she knew what to buy for me to the TEE. Thanks so much Melissa!! You are THE bomb!!

And don't be surprised..
I already ripped into the fingernail polish! 

Essie- Peep Show
pardon the reminders scribbled on my hand! ;)

Next, I'll have to bake something with my new oven mitt, sprinkles.. and baking notes sheets!
My goodness, I'm just too excited! haha

Anyone else participate in the Pink Swap?

1. I would love to sit on an adorable porch swing like this and read a good book!

2. I'm ready to wear my beloved rainbow flip flops!
the swimsuit and beach towel would be wonderful too! ;)
3. I'm ready for sundresses with cowboy boots!


4. Spring means things are colorful and pretty again! 
I'm OVER the dead look of Winter!
