My Birthday Continues :)

One of my co-workers was out on vacation the day of my birthday and this week, she surprised me with this!! I ♥ surprises!!!

She got me a gift card from Hobby Lobby...I can't wait to spend it! I already have an idea of what I'm going to buy.

And she got me this adorable stack of notepads...LOVE LOVE LOVE it! It will match my desk at work perfectly!!

See the cute little pen on top that matches it? Thanks Janet!

See what I got with my gift card!!! Love these file folders...

and these cute little notepads from Hobby Lobby!!

I also picked up this muffin pan with my gift card since I needed another one.

Another girl I work with, Kim, got me a Target gift card! These girls know the way to my heart :)

Check out this adorable (or at least I think it is) bikini I got at Target - on the clearance rack...even better!!

Love this sailor-ish print!

My other friend/co-worker, Trea, treated me to Cheesecake Factory!! We both had our favorite...Asian Taco Wraps with avocado - she got me hooked on them .... soooo good!

We shared this AMAZING slice of Heaven...

every last crumb :)

Nail Files and a Giveaway

Today I'm linking up with Tara and Vicki for their fabulous linkup party, The Nail Files. Essie : Turquoise and Caicos Julep : Ivy Annnnd...I'm doing something a little special for my readers today - a nail polish giveaway!! I am admittedly copying Christina over at Easily Entertained . :) She recently did a nail polish giveaway (that I missed out on..boo) and I thought what a GREAT way to get rid of some of my overflowing collection of polishes!!! You will win 8 bottles of nail polish including brands: OPI, CHI, Ulta, Avon, 2 Glitter Pots from Julep, and an Ulta Lipgloss! I apologize for the lighting - I will try to get a better picture and upload it. All of these polishes are slightly used (maybe 2 or 3 times) except for the CHI brand and the green Ulta one - those have never been used. The glitter pots and the lipgloss are also brand spankin' new. a Rafflecopter giveaway

My friend, Laura, took me on what we will call a field trip this week. She took me to our local Asian Market. I'm not sure what these eggs were called.

The hubs' parents bought a cabin at a lake about 3 hours from here! T...

A Batman Wedding and a $9 Wedding Dress

It's already been a year and half and I still haven't even scrapbooked it!!! Where does the time go? Ok...to the dress. I knew exactly what I wanted. I wanted it to be short, satin, and a "pick-up" style dress. I looked around at David's Bridal and other stores but I just couldn't see spending more than $100 on my dress. (I've been married before and had the big, fancy wedding - and we see how well that worked out!!) So this time, I wanted a small wedding and didn't want to spend much. I walked into Ross one day looking for something else and decided to walk through the dresses to look for a dress for my sis, the MOH. It was like the clouds opened up and the angels were singing and the sun beamed down on this dress. You can't really tell fr...
