Happy hump day!  Yesterday was the first day I overslept and I was kicking myself!  I set my alarm for 4:45 a.m. and almost got up right then, but instead talked myself into hitting snooze to give myself 10 more minutes in bed.  I must have accidentally turned my alarm clock off because the next thing I knew it was 6:00 am!  Ug!  I still got up and did my ab workout and meditated, but I’ll be back at it again early tomorrow!  It did make me already miss that accomplished feeling of having so much done by 6am, so I guess that’s good!

Happy one more day of weekend friends!  We are still on party high over here, having a great time celebrating James’ 7th birthday yesterday with all of his friends at a fun little go cart place in town. The kids had so much fun playing laser tag, arcade games, and air hockey and I was so glad not to have to do any house clean up afterward!  #winwin

I came home last night and was doing a little couch relaxing and online browsing and saw so many awesome sales (40% & 50% off!) I didn’t want to keep to myself,

Good morning friends!  We’re midway through this week and I don’t know about you, but I feel like it’s taken me the last two days to get my bearings again after Thanksgiving break!  We’ve had a lot going on and I’m co-hosting a “Favorite Things” party with my girlfriends tomorrow, so I’ll be getting ready for that today!  Should be so much fun to see what everyone brings- our limit was $25 so I’ll share the ideas with you after the party.

And speaking of favorite things, y’all let me know what you were hoping Santa would bring YOU!

I hope y’all had the best day with family and friends and lots of good food!  We spent the day at my Mom’s house with my brothers, sis-in-law and sis-n-law to be, nieces and nephew (you can see bits on InstaStories) and now we’re back home, stuffed to the gills, cozied up on the couch in our Christmas pajamas!

But, I couldn’t let Thanksgiving day end without letting you know how much I appreciate YOU! Your encouragement, support and friendship over the years means so much to me.  So many of you have been reading James was just a baby and now you’ve seen him grow up and us become a family of four.

Yay for Friday, right?!  We had a weeknight date night last night, which never happens, so I’m feeling like the weekend has already started! AND, I cleaned out my office closet, which was a nightmare and got it all nice and neat and organized!  I should’ve taken before and after pics to share with you but I got so busy in the process that I completely forgot.

Rereading portions of this book gave me the nudge to let lots of stuff go.  The last thing to go through are the boxes of pictures dating back to my childhood that I plan to put into photo albums I’ll want to display on our bookshelf so we can actually enjoy them!
