Weekend Recap :)

Do you remember the conversation between Carrie & Charlotte (Sex & The City, the first movie) when they are shopping for furniture for Carrie's apartment. She is talking to Charlotte about why she stopped running since she found out that she was pregnant. Charlotte is worried that something bad will happen, because SO many good things have happened.

I am beginning to feel this way as well, my life can't get much better than it is now!

My weekend was absolutely wonderful. Not one complaint the entire time. Well except that I had to wake up this morning and leave my lover in bed, since he has time to take off "just because he feels like it" But other than that, it was perfect!

I got home Friday afternoon and Momma and I went shopping for decorations and lingerie for Morgan's lingerie party. I haven't been to Party City in forever and they have some of the cutest things! I got two zebra serving trays (big enough to fit tons of fruit on them) for $4.99 a piece!! I also tried out some of the tissue paper flower balls that I've seen on some blogs, harder than they look!

I was off the diet this weekend, but surprisingly I still did rather well. Momma and I went to Red Robin for dinner and I only ate about half of my meal. Then as we were leaving, we passed a bent over bus boy. My mom begins laughing hysterically (and that in itself is a treat, her laugh is very unique) and when I ask what is so funny her reply is this: "I had to physically stop myself from kneeing him in the butt" - gosh I love her :)

After dinner we headed to the mall to find some lingerie. Now I kept telling everyone that I planned on getting something as slutty as I could. Not because that is the kind of person Morgan is, but because it's just so funny! So as mom and I are looking we run into our preacher's wife from church (who also happens to be Morgan's aunt) and her daughter and friend. They were also looking for something. I ended up picking out some cute black panties that say "property of the groom" in silver sparkles, a very slutty see-thru number and a candy g-string!

We woke up bright and early Saturday morning for breakfast with my dad and grandpa. Afterwards we tackled grocery shopping at Wal-mart with the entire town of Hope Mills, not to mention it was 100 degrees by 11AM and either it was all the people or Wal-mart's air wasn't working.

We got home and began getting everything ready for the party. We cut up fruit for hours and made penis shaped mac and cheese. It's hard buying decorations for someone else's house, not to mention when someone else is buying the table cloth and the plates, cups and napkins! Luckily everything worked out. We had a blast at the shower and Morgan surely racked up, especially from Victoria's Secret :)

Sunday was filled with church, lunch at Micasitas :) and naps. Then I came home to my love and we watched Big Brother. Let's not get started on Rachel's dramatics this week. I mean seriously you act like you are in elementary school and cry to Brendan because Jordan didn't pick you to watch a TV show!?! Something is seriously wrong, and I doubt Rachel & Brendan's relationship will make it thru this summer!

Now another week has begun, but tonight Heather and I are having dinner at Logan's - my diet restarts tomorrow. Did I mention that I weighed Wednesday night @ my parents house and when I weighed yesterday morning I was 9 and 1/2 pounds lighter? I'm sure its a mistake, but it was definitely the boost I needed :) Not to mention that I get to see my bosses kids, who I haven't seen in almost a year!!

Now for some pictures of the weekend! Happy Monday Y'all! (:

What I'm Loving Wednesday :)

Let's start off this lovely Wednesday morning with a few things I'm loving :) PS - I think italics is my new favorite!!)

1. Half Day at Work - I get to leave work at 12PM today, which means I will only be at work for 3 hours. I have a dentist appointment in Fayetteville. I've lived in Raleigh for a year and half now and still haven't found an OBGYN and dentist up here. I did change eye doctors but that's not a huge thing. Normally, leaving work early to go to the dentist wouldn't be so exciting, and while I'm not exactly thrilled to be going to the dentist, I've never been one to hate it. Maybe I just have really good teeth (no cavities for this girl).

2. Momma's Beef Tips - This is what I get to eat for dinner. While it's not exactly super diet friendly, its way better than my second choice which would be Micasitas. Micasitas is my favorite restaurant from home and while it serves Mexican, my favorite meal is the chicken fingers and fries with cheese dip - yes I'm that weirdo that doesn't get Mexican at a Mexican restaurant (: Anyways...I called to put in a request for some of Momma's home cooking and she accepted!

3. Dinner Dates with Megan - Last night my dear friend Megan and I went to dinner. We were both on a budget and while I was seriously craving Chick-Fil-A (remember my post from yesterday with the calorie breakdown) we had a simple dinner there. We talked for 2 hours! I'm telling you, we always have the best time when we get together! I've known Megan since my senior year in high school which was 6 years ago. She recently moved to Raleigh for an internship and lucky for me, she loves Raleigh (how could you not?) and wants to stay for good!! :) I always welcome my friends moving closer to me!!

{this was the most recent picture I have of Megan and I - 2 years ago on her 21st}

4. Heather - I can't explain how happy I am she is back in my life. We talked on the phone yesterday and it felt like we never missed a day. Sometimes, two people are just meant to be together and that's how I feel about us. As I stated in a previous post Heather is expecting. She is around 15 weeks and has a doctor's appointment this afternoon to make sure everything is okay (she was pregnant earlier this year and had a miscarriage and is starting to experience some of the same symptoms) I've been praying non-stop since Monday that everything would be all right. I am so blessed to be apart of this huge milestone in her life!

5. Morgan's Lingerie Shower - One of my other lifelong friends, Morgan is getting married November 19, 2011 and I am a bridesmaid in her wedding! This weekend is her lingerie party. I've known Morgan since I was in 3rd grade, so for 15 years. I am so happy that she has found such a great guy to spend the rest of her life with. I got her a candy g-string as one of her presents ;) Maybe I should have thought about the fact that I haven't had a lingerie party yet, and what goes around comes around?!!? Oh well -its all in fun. Now for a few pics of Morgan and I!

Happy Wednesday Y'all :)

Everything Happens for a Reason

Remeber my post last week about the life long friend I lost, if not ready it here.

I sent her a message oh probably two weeks ago asking when she planned on moving out of our old apartment and when could I get my keys back. She never replied.

Today, she replied. We have texted back and forth all day. Taking things slow, and just catching up. I don't want to get my hopes up, but I feel like things could go back to normal, eventually, one day far down the road.

Her exciting news is that she is expecting :) She is due in January and doesn't want to find out the sex. I would die waiting to find out! However, she isn't out of the woods yet, so keep her in your prayers, as well as our ever rekindling friendship!

I'll leave you with a picture of her cute little prego belly (:
