Friday Favorites...
Yes, once again LATE with the Friday Favorites! Story of my life these days. This week I am loving my turquoise candle that Sarah gave me last weekend on our high school girls' weekend! It is my favorite color and the design is gorgeous. I sat it in my kitchen window but I havent been able to bring myself to light it yet... I dont want to waste it! Is anyone else like that about about a beautiful candle?
I am also loving my Aviator sunglasses. I have been wanting some for awhile now but had not been able to find any that were narrow enough for my face. I like these. This picture also represents the beautiful weather we have been having the last few days! That is also another one of my FAVORITES!!!
Happy Weekend!

Weekend FUN!...
This weekend was full of so much FUN I really couldnt keep up! I all began on Friday night when Will and I headed out of town to Ft. Worth to watch Seth perform with his new band "Cody Canada and the Departed!"
It is amazing to watch Seth on stage. He is so good and to see him with Cody is AWESOME! They were fantastic! We had a great time!
We were joined with some great "Guthrie" company, too... We always have just a good time with Shane and Dannielle. Dannielle and I are so good at giving our "Guthrie boys are hard time... Its just because we LOVE them so much!
Fun night with the HUBS!
Shane and Danielle!
We literally slept four hours in our hotel and then it was back to Hamilton to watch a little basketball and get ready for my mini-reunion with some high school girl friends I hadn't seen in years! Some of these girls I see pretty often but many of them I hadnt seen since we walked across the stage in 1994! We had a great time catching up.
We had dinner at the local restuarant and just visited and caught up on life! (Jennifer, Melissa, and Steph!)
Cindy, Amanda and Danielle. Dani moved in the 7th grade and I am not sure I had seen her since. I am so thankful she made it! She looks just like I remember her and we had a great time with her!

Birthday Wonderfulness...

Last night we celebrated some birthday "wonderfulness" for one of my dearest friends... We pulled off a very fun birthday surprise for her, not before she was VERY.UPSET with most of us! We ventured over to the very fancy Rough Creek for a great evening of conversation and dinner!
We shared a few drinks. One of which was a bottle of wine that was FAUST. We thought it was funny because FAUST happens to be the name of one of my co-teachers. It was delicious!
I had great intentions to get a picture of all the courses of our meal but I FAILED! It is the yummy bread that I didnt get to eat but it looked good. They had some fancy butter with it, too.
There is my handsome date on the other side of my wine glass. I wish we had taken a group shot. Actually they did take a group shot of all of us by the fireplace. Maybe I will get a copy of it sometime :)
I did get a picture of Bridgette's Wild Boar with some sort of pasta. It was one of the first dishes. I did take a bite of it and it was yummy. We also had some tortilla soup and a cormeal and cheese something before our main dish.

Friday Favorites...
...Yes, on a Saturday... But I am posting my Friday Favorites non-the-less! This week I have LOVED this Gluten free bread! Before THIS brand of GF bread, I have only had the brand that H-E-B carried and it is just OK. I didnt really brag on it too much. But this kind is good. My hubby bought it for me at the health food store and it is so much better than the other kind. I ate a great grilled cheese on it last night! I am G-free now and it is proving to be what I need to be "for life" I guess. I am learning more and more each day but each day I "fall off the wagon" or test my body on this thing... my body tells my I must stick to it. My symptoms are for real and getting more real as time progresses. It is tough but this bread makes it a little easier :) And sweet surprises from others such as pastas and little GF secrets are WONDERFUL!
My other Friday Favorite is our new coffee pot. Actually it is Will's coffee pot but I LOVE the coffee from it. It has a timer and gets to brewing our coffee before we even roll out of bed in the mornings! Yes, we are getting spoiled. We had had our old coffee pot for 13 years. We got it when we got married! This one is FANTASTIC! It even has an automatic shut off! FANCY!

My Fashion Girl
Lainey got a FUN Christmas gift from Poppy and DeeDee. She was able to design her own dress or outfit from www.fashionplaytes.com! She LOVED it.
Well, today her masterpiece of a dress came and she had to try it on for everyone!
I wasnt there when Lainey went to "design" her dress on-line so I had Lainey so me how it worked. First you get to pick the style of dress you want, then they pick the color of dress, then you add the ribbon or toile or rosette, or any other FUN thing you can think of. There are so many choices. It was fun to play with. Lainey had fun just designing today even though we werent buying another dress.
What a great gift! Perfect for my little Fashion Girl!

Little Lambchop...
This past Friday and Saturday was our county stock show. We do not raise animals for the county show of our own (YET) but the girls LOVE the county show and we spent every waking hour at the show barns. Emiley decided to participate in the lamb show and we were oh so proud of her!
She did such a good job holding Little Lambchop around the neck and keeping her knee in Little Lambchops neck. Emiley and her sisters are really begging their daddy to get them some show animals of their own for next year.

Friday Favorites...
Its Friday once again. I think I have skipped a few Friday Favorites over the holiday but I am back! This Friday one of my favorite things are my new curtains in my living room/kitchen/dining area. I have been wanting new curtains in that area of my house that all match since it is an "open concept." My mom gave me Christmas money and that is what I chose to spend my part of the money on!
I had been eyeing some black and white curtains at Pier 1 but decided to go with red to add some color into the area. I LOVE THEM!!!
