[ Waffles & Cuties ]

A look into my kitchen on any given night...
I love it!



More pics to come tomorrow!

I also came across a couple quotes today that I loved:

"You don't have to necessarily be the best at what you do- there's always someone better.
Instead, be the only one who does what you do."

"I believe that if something in your life is not worth fighting for, it really isn't anything in your life at all."



I also have some news to share soon! I will restrain for now! Soon... soon...

Hope everyone is having a great Thursday evening! Getting ready to curl up with my boy & watch some Grey's!

[SUprise!!!]

Yes, I know that is spelled wrong! But it was apart of our night last night and it was hilarious!

These sweet, SWEET girlfriends of mine completed SURPRISED me with a birthday dinner celebration!
I thought Melissa and I were going to a quick dinner and it turned out to be a group!
I was SO surprised that apparently I looked angry!
I totally wasn't... just in shock that people were not where they were "supposed" to be! Ha!

Written on the card of my bouquet was the word "SUPRISE!"
So all night we said that instead of SUR-PRISE! Funny...



I honestly believe I have some of the best friendships in the world!
I cherish them and feel so blessed for the women in my life.
Thank you girls for a wonderful evening--- I love you!

I cannot believe I'm about to be the big 3-0!!!
Less than a week left of my 20's!!!
What is happening to life right now? I still feel like I'm 22!

I'll leave you with a quote I just found:

"A real friend
knows when to listen,
when to stop listening,
when to talk,
when to stop talking,
when to pour wine,
when to stop pouring
and just hand over the bottle."

Such a great night... I'd had such a busy, stressful week it was wonderful to relax and LAUGH!

Now off to get Cortland's 4th birthday party underway!

[In less than TWO hours...]

... my FAVORITE show is starting it's season!!!
I cannot wait... I love The Ellen Degeneres Show! L-O-V-E it....
In my opinion- she is the most hilarious person on the planet.
Her show is my favorite part of my morning during my weekdays! ... And it's starting in just over an hour!



YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

In other news...

This morning started out s-l-o-w for all of us... we just had such a great
Labor Day weekend and didn't want to get our "normal" weekday started!
Cortland didn't even want to get up and he usually is so happy in the morning it's borderline-annoying!
Anyway- I usually only have two cups of coffee, but I'm on my THIRD now.
I needed a little bit more to get me going... so much to do today!

[Lovin' these cool nights!]

BTW- just a little tidbit of random info:
If you have a lot of random vases around (like I do), they make great little lanterns.
I just put a little tea light in the bottom of them and then I place them around my patio!
Feels great not to let them go to waste!

[Aaggh... Monday Morning!]

...things are starting off s-l-o-w this morning! :)
Anyone else???



... sneak peek of the Senior Session from this weekend!

[Quotes]

I am a lover of quotes. Always have been.
So I thought that I would share on this blog the ones that impact me at the moment.
Hopefully once I week I will have my "quote of the moment" to share with readers!

Here's my first one. I found it today in a little quote book! Love it...
