Let's Try Again, Tuesday...

... well, yesterday's positive attitude didn't go so well, so let's try this again.

Here's to a better Tuesday!
[Aren't these adorable?! It makes me long for MN...]

Hello, Monday :

Your potential is great. I'm ready to face you with a {positive} attitude.

{Sweet} Dreams, Dolls...

Monday will be here before we know it [sigh]!

Once Upon a Time ...

If you want them to be more intelligent, read them more fairytales."

Remember When...

... you were in high school, and you'd talk on the phone for hours with your best girlfriend or favorite crush?

Is this what you looked like? [This was me!]

{Picture} It

{Happy} Weekend

on the agenda:

+ Friday night in! No plans except scrumptious Bow Tie Pasta for dinner!

+ Re-design blog. Probably numerous times until it's absolutely perfect, but get it re-designed nonetheless.

+ Finally purchase my anniversary gift! [Still not sure what?] Possibly hit the outlet malls too for some work clothes. [I've been re-wearing outfits too many times, this is not good...]

+ Dinner && a movie with my sweetie pie!

+ End.of.summer.overdue.house.cleaning! Ugh.

+ Maybe, I said maybe, go golfing, just to make my husband happy.

FINALLY.

It's Friday!! It's been a stressful week at work && I am grateful for a weekend of nothing starting in about 9 hours!

Please Excuse My Mess

I've been working on re-designing my blog for about 2 weeks now but haven't had enough time to sit and really work it all the way through, so it's still in the process...

hopefully this weekend I'll have time to get it exactly how I want it [for now...]

Note To Self :

Sometimes, I need a little reminder...

[I love this look]

... they're so powerful, aren't they?

{Right} This Minute...

... I'm wishing it was Friday.
... but, I'm thankful it's Wednesday already.
... I'm regretting buying Emma her new toy she's gone nuts over.
... I'm craving a pretzel & chz from Claim Jumpers [will be satisfied this weekend]
... I'm looking forward to a weekend of nothing!
... I'm loving this shirt I got last weekend. [in black]
... but wishing I would've gotten this one as well.

Choices, Choices.

I still haven't gotten my anniversary gift yet [Mrs. Indecisive here], but it's down to these two categories.

[Justin and I are on a Burberry kick, if you can't tell]

[I love this purse, it is even more amazing in person, however, I could get 3 things vs just the
one, so I'm torn. However, I have a feeling this purse will be in my
possession sooner than later either way...]

don't let go

Hopefully these will help you start your Monday with a smile!

I'd {Really} Love...

... to ride in a hot air balloon, someday. Would you?

...we're back!

phew! we've been traveling and driving a lot over the past few weekends, so it feels good to be home for awhile... until Labor Day, which I'm super excited to go back to Minnesota, I'd go back there anytime!

Los Angeles was lots-of-fun, but we're both sunburnt, tired, and traveled out.
It'll be nice to sleep in our own bed tonight![this really is our comforter set from West Elm!]

{Happy} Weekend!

on the agenda:

+ Another road trip this weekend, this time to LA and the wonderful Venice Beach Boardwalk for our anniversary celebration!

+ One-year anniversary, already??? Time really does fly! Dinner at... TBD, somewhere in Hollywood.

+ A little shopping never hurt anyone, especially not when it's done on Rodeo Drive [Justin still owes me an anniversary gift]

+ A day at the Beach! Hopefully the waves are Hawaii style again...

+ A day exploring Hollywood, Sunset Blvd, etc etc etc... [Justin's only been to LA for a couple of quick trips and we've never gotten to do the touristy stuff, so that's this weekend!]

{This} is...

... my kind of camping.

{Happiness} is...

... being a kid again, often!

XOXO, Gossip Girl.......

Another reason that I love Fall is because all the good TV shows start back up again and new shows are premiering. On the top of my list: Gossip Girl. These two girls have the best sense of fashion (on and off the set) and they have been inspirations to me. I wouldn't even call Gossip Girl my guilty pleasure, as I do not even feel guilty about watching it! :)

Do you have any good shows you recommend? Justin and I are always looking for new shows! This year we are going to try and watch all of the new show premiers, and then weed them out by our favorites!
