It's been so longggg....

Wow it has been quite a while since my last blog...
Things have just been crazy and now we are getting in to the Holiday season and I LOVE IT!

Well here is a little recap of the past few weeks...

The "Aunt-ourage" made it to the Star City and we had a blast... well I know I did! They brought me the cutest house warming gift and I have put it to use just about everyday now! THANK YOU:) We shopped until we dropped on Saturday morning at the "Stocked Market" then enjoyed a wonderful lunch at one of my favorite little restaurants, Fork in the Alley.

Then it was off to the lake... They checked out the house then said their goodbyes... Can't wait to see everyone again tomorrow for TURKEY day

This is the view I get to wake up to!!! :)

That Sunday J and I woke up at the lake and had ourselves a nice little breakfast. Later that afternoon we headed back to town for a little horseback riding!!! It was amazing... I had not been on a horse in FOREVER... and it was probably a pony not a horse. We are definitely going back... Thanks J!

Ahhhh yes that is me on the back of a horse!!

Justin learned how to rope:)

The next week consisted of a lot of work...blah haha and then a lot of play as well. We had our JL meeting at the movies where we saw "Amelia"... what a woman! Then a few nights later was a Southern Living Party followed by a Little Black Dress GNO!! I have the best friends in the world:)

Now Im finally catching up... this past weekend was GREAT! Friday night was date night at our favorite Mexican place. Then we came home and prepared food and drink for the tailgate on Sat!

GO HOKIES!!! This was the last home game of the season so we had to go all out! Hokies win!

And now it's Thanksgiving!!! I am heading home and couldn't be more excited. I am soooo thankful for all of the amazing friends and family I have in my like! Thank you everyone! and I wish you all a safe and happy Thanksgiving!

Gobble Gobble:)

Happy feet:)

So the past few days Ida has had a little effect on us with all this rain... it has just been very cold and very wet. I stopped off at the store last night after work and I was running back to my car when a HUGE puddle popped up out of no where... hehe I don't know how I missed it really but then next thing I new I was drenched from the knees down.

When I get home J was not there... he had forgotten something at work and needed to go back. When he finally got home he had a few bags with him. As he was emptying them he pulled out these

and said "I saw them sitting there and thought you just had to have them!" Isn't he wonderful:) It's the little things that mean the most! He makes me, and my feet, soooo incredibly HAPPY!

Thanks J.... Love you:)

Star light, star bright, I wish for this star's closet tonight!

So I was checking out Glamour yesterday and came across and article titled " If you could raid any celebs closet who would it be?"

This was tough question for me and probably for most of you out there but I have narrowed it down to....

Drum roll please....

My girl Reese Witherspoon! From casual to chic Ms. Witherspoon really knows how to dress the part! Let me know which closet you would raid!

Ok so I know it's turning cold and don't get me wrong I love me some big coats, scarves, fires in the fireplace and hot cocoa, but take a look at some of J.Crew's spring stuff!

SHUT UP!!!

I love it:) I will take one of everything thank you!

Everyday wear from a Sunday brunch to a fancy night out! YES PLEASE:)
