So Friday - I woke up and decided I felt like death but I rocked out another workout
Saturday I supported Small Business Saturday and headed to St. Charles Main Street for some shopping with my mama dearest. We had lunch, shopped our faces off, and I ended up with shoes for Wes, shoes for Elle, tights and headbands for Elle, boots for me, and then these ridiculously priced flats I decided I must have (if you follow me on instagram you saw them). They are Sam Edelman and I love them - so comfy and my fav - leopard print:) Saturday evening I hung with my main man Wes - good night...
Sunday I decided it was a month before Christmas so I better get my Christmas stuff out - so yep I worked out and ran and then worked out AGAIN putting up Christmas decorations with a 5 and 2 year old. AGH!!!!!! Here are a few pics...
Finally I ended the night with a cup of coffee with my girl - regular for me - decaf for her.
Alright here you guys go - the lightening is HORRENDOUS. Not just a little bad - it is AWFUL. But I think you get the jist of what I doing. I think my lens was dirty with (.)(.) sweat - all you girls know I stuff my phone in my sports bra when I run/workout - haha. Deal with it:) I promise to do the vlog again this week and make sure the lens is squeaky clean! Oh and I promise to get my workout tutorial done too. I posted my workout but many want to see the moves I do instead of just what I wrote - so I am going to work out for you peeps! LOL As long as I can get someone to hold the camera/phone for me.
Welcome BACK to the Weekdays
Thanksgiving stories? Sushi fan? Stick your phone in your sports bra?









Yay, you made it through Thanksgiving! I'm not a sushi fan but I don't think I have ever tried good sushi? Used to stash my ipod in my sports bra which coroded (sp?) the batteries because of my sweat! What a cute date you had with Elle!
ReplyDeleteyou've been busy! The dessert your little girl has - :O yum! And she was so cute walking in on your video! You make the hair look sooo easy. I'm going to practice because I've been wanting to do that style for years!
ReplyDeleteI'm a huuuuge sushi fan. It's one of my favourite foods, but I find that it is very very hard to feel satisfied from it - I'd have to eat SO much!
Your decorations are cute!
ReplyDeleteI loved the vlog, I am always struggling with my super flat hair, I shall give your tips a whirl!
ReplyDeleteThe vlog is great! The (.) (.) sweat only adds to the delightful lighting. :) Happy Monday!
ReplyDeleteOh my word I cannot imagine Leah or Emily being that grown up to drink coffee with me! And I love your sushi datenight! We have mommy/daughter events but it usually is to a fast food place... Some day, when the 3 year old can sit still longer than 15 minutes...

See you Friday?
Your daughter is so sweet. I love having a little buddy too. Our 'thing' is tea houses. She doesn't drink the tea but she loves to hold the cup, pinkies up!
ReplyDeleteI was checking out your hair when we had lunch and trying to take a few notes {between beers}. I need to go get some brown bobby pins... and be a copy cat. I love your poof and the half up/half down look! :)
ReplyDeleteI need to do more girls nights with O&G. Looks like it was fun! Your tree looks awesome! Also E likes coffee?!
ReplyDeleteJust watches this...I know, I'm behind. Any who, love you hair and am trying your tricks tomorrow. FYI, I used to put my phone in my bra and ruined it. My friend who runs marathons like I run a 5k got me a SPIBelt and its awesome. It Does. Not. Move. You should try it. :)
ReplyDeleteYeah, so for Christmas I'm going to need to send you a proper holder for working out with your phone, hahahahaha!
