So, I started my normal Oh, Hey Friday! post, and you want to know how far I got??

“Happy fride”  <–I didn’t even spell FRIDAY right!!!

This week/last few weeks have been crazy.  I’m sure you’ve seen that b/c of my “one-post-a-week.”  I don’t know about other bloggers, but as soon as I miss one post for the week, I feel SOO defeated!  So, then I put off the next and the next in fear that I need to explain myself for missing the post… SO here’s my explanation…

LIFE

Ok, now moving on to…

This Week  These Last Few Weeks in Review

MEMORIZE:

And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in one body. And be thankful.  -Colossians 3:15 ESV

Awesome verse to dwell on during VACATION & Thanksgiving!

HIGHLIGHTS:  (#s correspond to picture above)

1. I got my 4th #Birchbox!  I’ve been loving them, but no time to review them.  AMAZING perfumes though.
2. The Plow- this pictures fails to capture the 7 inches of snow we got soon after, but it is now a prominent fixture on the front of the truck for the next 3 months.
3. We have been enjoying more family dinners than usual lately.  I would cook more, only Ruthie’s favorite is hotdogs with “Ruthie Cheese” (Parmesan cheese) on it, and Tessa’s favorite is Mac & Cheese.  Good thing it’s budget friendly.
4. I was a part of this AWESOME scarf exchange at the beginning of the month!  Check out the post!
5. I made these lovelies for a Project Runway Mary Kay Party I went to…PS Did you hear the BIG NEWS??  I’m selling Mary Kay now!  Check out my post!  {10 Reasons I Became a Mary Kay Consultant}
6. We have officially come to that point where we have to monitor time Ruthie has on my phone.  She can sit and watch Princess videos on YouTube for HOURS.
7. My sis-in-law and her bou (who is also a LONG time friend of mine) are engaged, and they aren’t messing around.  She asked me, “Do ya think we can plan a wedding in 4 months?” BRING.IT.ON.  Oh, the picture??  Well, when you see a pretty dress and the bridal store you have to try it on!  Then, naturally, send a picture to your husband and try to convince him to renew vows or get married again just for funzies.  {didn’t work}
8. I’m always talking about Tricia on here because she’s basically the coolest, but this picture was taken at her final fundraiser, Fancy Coffee with Tricia.  My fellow bandits and I got to throw this for her as a final fun party and opportunity to get her last donations to put her over the top of her $27,700 goal.  We raised $816 and had WAY too much doing it!

GOALS ACCOMPLISHED:

• Our heater is fixed!
• Finished all the dishes! None are in hiding!
• I am a Mary Kay girl- And I’m ready to be the most REAL, coolest, funnest, MK Girl around!
  • PS To start loading my business portfolio, I need to give 30 free facials!  Email Me if you want one!
• I have 3 weddings in the “Print Design” works right now, and I couldn’t be MORE excited!  If I could do this full time, it would be dreamy.
• Helped Tricia meet her goal to move to Greece!

GOALS FOR THIS WEEK:

• Get my family to PUNTA CANA in only carry-ons.  CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!  {Robbers- beware.  We set boobie traps!  His name is Alex and he has a beard.}
• RELAX!  And don’t do anything that is work-related while on vacation.
• Read/listen to my Bible EVERY DAY.

WORD OF THE YEAR:

Have an amazing Thanksgiving week!  I’ll blog again soon…
It may not be on my normal day, but it will be soon.
