Last night we had our annual Christmas party for work. We went to Centro in downtown Des Moines. I had thee best scallops I've ever had. YUM! I'm still full.
I couldn't wait to wear my new outfit. Found the skirt and top at YOUNKERS.
All the girls together!

christmas came early
Sunday morning I woke up to get myself some coffee and realized I had left my creamer at work... While I CAN drink my coffee black, I do not choose to. Good thing our kitchen is always stocked with booze!
I had to wake up early because we had Christmas at my grandmother's. Everyone laughed that I wore heels just to drive down to Lacona, because as soon as I walked in the door I put my slippers on. They were not surprised.
Can you tell I'm at grandma's - wood paneling

I finally finished with my Christmas shopping, Saturday morning. I got up to beat the crowds and finished shopping in a few hours. (I'm good)
The best part is I got to wear my new boots

christmas decor pt. 1
This weekend I got out all the Christmas things we had. I still have some at my parents house I need to pick up.
My new Goodwill friend went on my little Good will "shelf"
I never realized exactly how many Christmas penguins I had.
decor
We have a wall in our apartment that has been taunting me to put something on it. So, Friday night before date night my girlfriend Kasey and I made a quick stop to Hobby Lobby, in our heels! I picked up a mirror and wall decoration for 50% off!
The "shelf" is actually from Goodwill, along with the vase. They match perfectly. I think I may spray paint the vase. Any suggestions?
I had plans to turn the suitcase I found at Goodwill into a table. However, I couldn't bring myself to ruin it.
Shell I bought at Goodwill :)

sushi date
Friday, I had a hot date. My two best girls and I went out to dinner for sushi and drinks!
My co-worker bought all us girls in the office a treat when she came back from a show. She got my a "headband" with a sequin bow on it. She thought of Hello Kitty when buying it for me. She knows me so well.

homemade pizza
I am about a week behind on blogging. Sorry, let's start with last Tuesday 11-13. I made homemade pizza. My parents gave me a pound of pork sausage, it was the obvious thing to do with it. I did not make my own crust, even though I would like to try it sometime. We ate the whole thing!

christmas is coming early
Call me crazy, but I have already started decorating for Christmas! I cannot wait for the holidays and I can't wait any longer.
healthy veggies
I've been TRYING to start to live more healthy. I just want to know, how do people live like this... I love vegetables and fruit, but eating them for every meal is getting exhausting. I eat a whole bowl of veggies and feel stuffed, 15 minutes later I'm starving. Now who wants a cheeseburger!

birthday gift
My birthday was October 22 and my mother just gave me my birthday gift :)
She gave me my Norwex, which I knew about and excited about. Also, HELLO KITTY car decal, air freshner, and coffee mug. Let's get real, I'm a 25 year old who can't ever have enough Hello Kitty

While I was at my parents Sunday running around with the kids. I left the boyfriend at home to watch the chicken I put in the oven.
it was baked for about 5 hours on 275 degrees
He was shredded, put on a hamburger bun, topped with bbq sauce and cole slaw. YUM!
