Last night was a big night of movie and tv watching!  We went and saw Moneyball with Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill.  I know it's been out for a while, but if you haven't seen it, it was a great one!! Definitely loops you in to the excitement of the game!! It might even have enticed me to watch some baseball games this upcoming season!

For most, the night would have been over there but not for me!! Why, you ask..... THE VICTORIA SECRET ANNUAL FASHION SHOW aired!!!! OH my-- those women are drop dead gorgeous, I mean jaw dropping smoking!!  Let me guess what you are thinking, why would I want to sit around and watch women half my size parade around in lingerie.  I would simply answer with-- its fashion and AWESOME! It is an art to walk in 6 inch platforms with heavy costumes and millions of people watching!! Here are a couple of my favs:

 Yes all that black in the background is part of the costume-- CRAZY!

 All beaded and HEAVY!

 A $2.5 million bra-- AHHHH!

 The finale!

Who is y'alls favorite??!

Snowflake making and what have you!

A couple years back I was beyond honored to accept the Snowflake Making Award!! I worked day and night improving my skills (my oh my I needed it!) in fact I had blisters on my hands from the dagburn scissors!! I now am proud to say that I am a fully trained and equipped PRO-- don't think it came easy-- it took lots of dedication and hard work.  For a couple years now I have had a whole team behind my operation!  A few straglers here and there but I wanted to take the time to say thanks to all that helped with the execution of wonderful snowflakes!!  At this time I would like to extend a HUGE thanks to Ms. Kelsey Pace who helped me get to where I am now and who taught me the necessary skills!!

Me and my team decorated the windows in my little place-- it definitely takes the decor up a couple notches! Don't you agree??

Love this time of year!!!

Hair-flair!

Over the past couple of days I have learned quite the tricks to do with mah hair piece!! Both are very simple to do and look pretty great if I must say so myself. 

1.  The SOCK bun-- that's right I said Sock! Just your basic run of the mill sock-- holes or no holes it makes no difference.  Sammay D shared this little secret with me-- it's one the Kardashian's have been hiding! No bobbie pins or annoying hair-spray-- this one is here to stay!

 My bun!-- there's a sock in there!

Bibble's bun

To create this masterpiece-- cut the foot part off of the sock-- keeping the "tube".  Roll this into a "large scrunchie" if you will.  Place your hair in a high pony-tail and slowly roll your hair over the sock until you have your bun!

2. Fish tail Braid-- another simple masterpiece but a wee bit time consuming!!

Mine turned out a bit messy because my hair air-dryed and was crazy frizzy.

The trick I found most helpful was securing the pony tail at the top before starting and then cutting or releasing the band once finished.  Separate hair in to two even sections, from the outerside of the left pull a SMALL piece of hair and combine with the right side.  From the far right side pull a small piece of hair, cross over and combine with the left side-- proceed to the bottom of your hair.

Friends-giving!

Last night we had Friends-giving with all my bestest friaands!  We had a spread of turkey, gravy, stuffing, brocolli casserole, sweet potatoes, rolls, pasta salad and yummy homemade desserts!! Really gets ya mouth a watering!

Love y'all!! On another note-- I took the plunge and bought the new Iphone 4S-- LOVE IT and Instagram!

Baby Jake's 1st Birthday!

This weekend Ry and I traveled down to celebrate his nephew's 1st birthday!! Linds and Thad had a packed house and were fully equipped with tasty treats! After watching all the munchins tobble around we openend presents and ate cake! Who knew they made so many toys with different shapes, sounds and colors!

 

Happy Birthday Baby Jake!!! 

We also walked around downtown and participated in the "window wonderland" contest-- it is all about solving riddles that relate to Christmas Toys.  This is the last one we have to answer and are a little stumped!  Any ideas?!



XOXO

4 Things. .

1. THANKSGIVING is less than a week away!!! Yesterday we had a work-thanksgiving and it really got me in the holiday spirit!!  BRING ON THE TURKAAAAAY!

2. Sipping on hot wintery drinks-- DD was on sale at the g store so I picked up the Cinammon Spice and mmm-- it takes a normal cup of joe from a 7 to a 10!!

3.  OLD SCHOOL Rascal Flatts! I have had them on repeat in the office, in my car (rocking the CD's!!), and while bopping around town-- sweet sweet sounds!

4. Arington Draft House-- it is an awesome yet sneaky little place in A-town!  They show movies that are out of theaters but not quite out on DVD for little to nothing -- Monday's start off $1, Tuesday $2 and Wed-Fri is $5.50-- not too shabby if you ask me!! Ry and I saw Crazy, Stupid, Love this week-- just your basic chick-flick!

Hope y'all have had a great week!! What are y'all loving this week?

XOXO
