Tonight we are celebrating my moms birthday and starting off the Christmas season. We are going to eat dinner on the patio and watch the Christmas tree lighting at the Shops at Legacy. This is the area that surrounds where I work. It is so pretty at Christmas time. I am very excited. I hope Savi will enjoy too. The weather seems to be good:)

I think the shoes fit quite nicely:)

This is our little family....and I love them more and more each day:)

Friday night I was on my way home and my husband says I have "3 surprises"...I'm like sweet...what are they? He says "my parents called and invited us out for Chinese food! I'm thinking...oh wow that sounds so good and I'm tired. Where do we go?" Charlie then proceeds to tell me I told them no. Savi seems kinda tired so we need to stay home. Can you say disappointment. And why would you start out with I have 3 surprises and then tell me we are NOT having Chinese food. Plain cruel:) Well he immediately noticed my disappointment and called his parents to see if we could still go. This is why I love him! He had actually made dinner already. He put it up in the fridge for another night and out to dinner we went:) We also did some browsing in Kirklands. That place is the next best thing to Hobby Lobby. I found some cute gift ideas and a Christmas decoration!

Saturday, Savi and I just hung out. I went to work later in the evening and saw Emmitt Smith! Kinda cool:) He was at this hospital gala that was going on at the hotel. Here is a back shot of him. Best I could do with out just being plain obnoxious:) Oh and his wife...Pat Smith...is plain GORGEOUS!

Sunday I did this....

It can be an exhausting process, but so worth it. Never to early to get these out of the way:)

I wanted to throw a sip and see for my friend Cathy. I felt like sip and see's though were kinda girly and I needed to man it up a little:) So I came up with the idea of a Sparkling Sip and See! A champagne themed party! Here was the invite...
The party was super fun to plan and turned out cute. I did a little champagne station of bellini's and mimosa's. Then just some yummy party food. You don't have to do much else since the main attraction is the BABY:)

I made brownie lollipops! So yummy!

This past weekend wasn't to busy but was at the same time. Friday night Charlie and I just hung out. We had a family outing to Target and we bought a new game Charlie and I were interested in called Scrabble Slam. Charlie and I LOVE to play scrabble. He almost always beats me. I have to try real hard to keep up. The game is fun. Not to much like scrabble, but has a small resemblance.Saturday, Savi and I just hung out and had a great day. I took her to the park and she was just an absolute doll:) Later Kristin came over and we went to run some errands. I made some yummy BBQ chicken on the grill and once Charlie got home, we enjoyed a great dinner.

This is my favorite picture of her right now! My girl so happy in the swing:)

Love her!

Sunday, I hosted a Sparkling Sip and See. Look for more on that in my next post:) I was exhausted after that and crashed in bed! I may or may not have eaten a Sprinkles cupcake for dinner and went to sleep. (Thanks MIL for dinner:))

I had seen this idea somewhere and really wanted to do it. I love dancing and I thought it would be special for me to be in the picture with her. It is me in my pointe shoes and my cute little ballerina:)

Here are some pictures from our Halloween! Savi loved just walking up and down the streets. We would just point her in the direction of a house and she did well. My in laws live in the neighborhood, so we first went to visit them!

Here she is getting candy from Mims:)

Daddy took her up to a house.

Aunt Kristin came with us!

Walking up to a house with mommy! I had so much fun taking her:)

Look at all my candy!

After we put Savi to bed, Kristin and I got ready for a Halloween party we were invited to. We wanted to go 80's and look the same, so we went with Aerobic 80's Girls! It was pretty fun. Here we are getting a workout in before we head out! "Let's get physical, physical...." lol

OMG I had so much fun today:) My mom's work had a special trick or treating event for family and friends. She works for a movie theater company, so all the candy is provided by concessions. SWEET! I promise to share with Savi:) She did so good and seemed to really have a good time. I so loved taking her. Tomorrow night we will do some more!

This week at Amber's Blog for "Friend Makin Monday" we are talking about….If life were a movie, which movie would you want to live in?

Hmmm I'm going to say Steel Magnolias.

This is one of my favorite movies. I love living in a big populated city full of Starbucks and Targets. But sometimes I get a little idea that maybe I would love the small town life like in Steel Magnolias. Everyone knows everyone and there gossip:) You shop at the local Piggly Wiggly and there are big town events. (Also like Gilmore Girls…love it!) Anyway…that movie is a true southern small town full of ups and downs and I love a movie that can make me laugh and cry. I think I could live in that movie in my southern house eating some fried green tomatoes;)

It was a cool day and I was tired. I came home after I got off work and after some family time, this is what Charlie and I did. So wonderful:)
