Bun, Peplum and shorts









It's Friday and the move is finally tomorrow!!!!!
 Chris and I are exhausted. We've been painting our bedroom and packing and taking what we could to the new place. 
We still have tons to paint but we are going to concentrate first on moving everything tomorrow and then paint the other walls in the apartment little by little.  
I have so many ideas for the apartment, but it won't get all done at once, obviously we don't have the budget to go out and spend on new furniture and other stuff right now, but we will work on it little by little, and I will hopefully show you it as the rooms in my imagination come to life. 
 Psyched!



Btw kudos to my sis Laurie for taking my outfit pictures :D this post wouldn't be happening otherwise 
went to dinner on this outfit to meet a friend who was in town last week.

Packing = workout








You would've never known by this pictures that a few hours before I had the weirdest, painful leg cramps ever. 
Who knew squatting only twice to pick some stuff off the floor would do it.
I'm getting old... I seriously need to work out. But, since we are moving this Saturday to our new apartment, I'll consider packing and lifting stuff, my workout routine. 

I read once before, somewhere, something like you burn about 200 calories for packing and unpacking a box...well, I'm on it :P

simple with jewelry







when it comes to a simple outfit, any jewelry is your best friend. 
In this case to spice up a simple denim shirt, I added my favorite gold bangle bracelet (which I have been over wearing :D)
I used to not like yellow gold jewelry, but its definitely growing on me.

I wore this about 4 weeks ago or so, and I'm just getting to post it :P tsk tsk


By the way, 
Happy Memorial day!!

Overalls










Whenever I wear overalls I remember when my sister and I were kids. Not sure if anyone wore it with one unhooked strap, but we did, because it was the cool way to wear it then, lol. yup we, the cool kids on the block. Haha


7 days!!!!
No, I'm not quoting the movie The Ring. 
Those are the days left till the move!!! eeek!

Columbus, GA

Finally posting pictures from our trip to Georgia. It was a 10 hour road trip, so yes, I was dying in the car lol. We headed up there to see my brother in law (Chris's brother) graduate from basic training.


The first evening we went to a BBQ place for dinner, I must add Georgia's sweet tea is awesome no matter what restaurant you go to, and when you ask for it, people don't ask if you want it unsweetened or sweetened, lol, it was just perfect tea every time. 



Later that night the hubby and I headed out to coffee. 
They had the coolest cute coffee shop called Fountain City, that I would much love to have here in Florida. 

 



-Grandma and I having breakfast at the hotel-

The next morning we headed out to Fortbenning for Jeff's Turning Blue Ceremony, where they have families come forward and put the blue cord on their soldiers. 



-Chris and I-

 -Mom Donna and Jeff-

-the brothers-

The blue cord stands for the Infantry.

-Hailey and Jeff-

-Jeff and grandma-


Believe it or not Chris's mom plays Call of duty, Halo, Hitman etc. so this picture is pretty much her in her element :P

After the ceremony we headed out to the Infantry Museum, which was awesome, here are some of the pictures:











What? what are my oxfords doing there? lol 









Tons of pictures!!! The museum was definitely worth visiting.

tiny me :P

by the way, everywhere we went the walls were either bricks or wood, I loved that


On the second day we headed back to Fortbenning for the graduation.
 Fortbenning is huge, It's like a city inside the city. They have houses, schools and even a Starbucks, a fancy one, that I wish we had time to stop by and take pictures of it, because it looked awesome.





The band before the ceremony. It was fun to watch, they did really good











It was a fun quick 2 days. I wish we could've stayed longer but right after graduation we headed on the road back to Florida. Jeff was looking forward to going home already and to get out of Fortbenning, where he had been for 3 months training without being allowed to get out, lol. 
But it was a great trip aside from the 10 hour drive, hehe.




P.S tune in Friday for an outfit post :)
