We have the best weekend on deck, y’all! Tomorrow is the
They are expecting more than
100,000 people to be in Athens
just to tailgate and that doesn’t include the 92,000+ who will actually be
attending the game. They even added
seats to the stadium to accommodate extra people. And it’s a night game and those are always my
favorite. Every hotel in Athens has been booked solid
for nearly a year but luckily B and I were able to snag an AirBnb that was
listed a couple of weeks ago. It’s going
to be INSANE in the best way and I cannot WAIT!!!! I’ll be posting all of our adventures on IG
stories tomorrow so be sure to follow along!
Now for some favorites to
kick off the weekend!
O N E – Fall Top
I posted this picture in my
weekly recap post this past Monday and I had so many people private message me
asking me to send the info on it. Well y’all,
it’s actually from Walmart and it’s on clearance here for a mere $9. Seriously.
It comes in two different colors and both of them just scream fall
despite the fact that they’re sleeveless.
They could not be more perfect for us down here in the south since we’re
still dealing with 100+ degree temps. I
wish I was exaggerating. All I want in
this world right now is to be able to change over to my fall wardrobe, but
since I can’t, this shirt is a nice way to appease me in my time of
waiting. Haha.
T W O – Red Dress
Tomorrow is the day that I
finally get to wear the new dress that I purchased for the Georgia
game!!!! I know I shared it on here once
already, but I wanted to share it again, this time with ME in the dress. I had a lot of questions about this one since
it looks so short on the model so I thought I’d just share a picture of myself
in it. I’m 5’5” and 120 lbs. and I
bought the small. It hits a few inches
above my knee so the length is perfect, and it’s roomy enough as well. The model must be really tall since it’s so
short on her, so as long as you’re not #supermodelstatus tall then the length
should work for you.
The dress is fully-lined, super
well-made and the quality is surprisingly great. It's only $18.99, it comes in eight different colors including
olive green (so trendy right now), navy (so chic), mustard yellow (perfect for
fall), and black (classic), and it's yet another Amazon item that I’d love to
have in all the colors!
The best thing about it is
that I’ll be able to stay nice and cool while still looking cute since the high
in Athens is 86
on Saturday. Sure beats the 101 that it
was here yesterday, though, so I’LL TAKE IT.
Sigh.
T H R E E – Pumpkin Pie Kit Kats
Yes, you read that right. Pumpkin Pie Kit Kats. Kit Kats are one of my favorite candies of
all time, so when I saw these I had to have them. Apparently everyone else in our city did,
too, because when we saw them at Target there were only two bags left. All of the other candies were fully stocked
to the brim, but those were gone. We snatched
up those last two bags and we’ve I’ve already gone through one whole bag. Whoops.
F O U R – Pumpkin Cookie Sandwiches
And speaking of pumpkin
goodies, my beloved pumpkin cookie sandwiches are back at Walmart this year, y’all! Oh my word, if you love pumpkin then you’ll
adore these! I think these are probably
the best pumpkin item I’ve ever put in my mouth. They are terrible
for you, but they are worth every single calorie, I promise. They’re always on the seasonal treats table
right when you walk in the grocery side of the store in my Walmart, so grab
some the next time you’re there!
F I V E – I’m Old
So I jumped on to Facebook
earlier this week and saw this alert:
How in the world have I been
on Facebook for FOURTEEN years?! If
that wasn’t an #oldlady moment then I don’t know what is!
On another note, Facebook provided
me with a collage of some of the old pictures that I’ve posted/been tagged in
over the years, and I started cracking up over the top left one. My mom and dad do a family Christmas card
every year, and they always try to come up with something clever. Well, back in 2013 my mom came up with the
idea to be the “Christmas Wrappers” and she assigned each person in our family
a rapper name, some of them Christmas themed.
I was “Ice Ice Baby” because I was seven months pregnant with Olivia,
Brian was “Ice-B” instead of Ice-T, Jacob was “Lil’ Jake Frost,” and so on…
this was probably my favorite family Christmas card ever.
Now for some Friday funnies…
Literally just did this the other day. |
Hahahaha. Why is this so true? |
Yes, somebody should definitely have the talk with me, too. |
