Monday, Monday - Weekend Recap

Happy Monday guys and dolls.  Hope you had a fantastic weekend!  We had a lot of this and that going on this weekend, but it was still a very nice and relaxing one to say the least.  Here is a quick recap:

Friday night consisted of just coming home and relaxing and catching up on our DVR shows

Saturday morning we got up bright and early and finished up the laundry, did a few chores around the house and then we took off to the Tanger Outlet Mall in Texas City for a day of shopping.  I was in DIRE need of some new work clothes (mainly blouses) and Brooks Brothers was having a killer deal! I got 7 pieces for a total of $288 - see... I told you - a deal! :)

I walked out with this in both gray and white solids:

These:

and this just to name a few:

Afterwards, we were only about 20 minutes from downtown Galveston, so we went to the Strand and walked around doing some more shopping and enjoying a few adult beverages and a late lunch/early dinner.  We also did some CHRISTmas tree ornament shopping and I got a few more pieces to go on my tree. Then we headed back to the house and watched our beloved Hogs whip up on LSU again for the 2nd year in a row and got to bring the Boot back to Arkansas where it belongs:

On Sunday, I slept in until 7:30 and then got up and started my CHRISTmas decorating around the house and can't wait to show you some of the final results.  I actually completed my entire tree yesterday once and for all.  Granted, I have been working on it now for at least a week.  You know how long it takes to get a huge tree fluffed and decorated, right?! I'm SO happy that part is over.  My mantle is completed now and the stockings are hung.  Yes, I do realize it is only the 16th of November, however, we decided we wanted to be able to enjoy our December this year without still trying to decorate for CHRISTmas.  But, I am also being a rebel too, because my kitchen has all of my THANKSgiving decorations on the table as I refuse to skip one holiday to go to the next and this year we have a lot to be thankful for.

Today is the big day - we should finally find out WHEN they are going to induce our daughter this week so that we get to finally meet our handsome little grandson once and for all. My daughter has gotten to the point we all do when pregnant, completely miserable, and she is more than ready for that baby to be here for more than one reason.  I will keep you posted, so stay tuned! :)

Have a wonderful day lovies and thanks for stopping by.  If you want to come link up today you can do so here, here and here.  :)  PS - Please excuse the wonkiness of my paragraphs, as they are not wanting to cooperate and justify as I keep trying to force them to do. 

Lots of love and hugs,
