Weekending + Giveaway!


Ah, Monday we meet again!  I hope everyone had a fab weekend.  Ours was pretty good.  It started off with my husband's promotion  ceremony.  He's a fireman and was promoted to Battalion Chief, we're all so proud of him.  He's worked so hard, and is the youngest Battalion Chief ever in his city.  Later that evening we went to a local brewery with our good friends.  I tried this coconut/chocolate beer that was AMAZING, it tasted like an Almond Joy!

Saturday hubby worked.   My mom, the kids and I spent the day together and did a little Home Goods shopping and ate at Chic-Fil-A (the kids' favorite lunch spot).  I basically wanted to buy everything I saw at Home Goods, they had such a great selection of things.  It makes you want to refurnish your whole house! I did end up with a few cute finds one being a cute vase for the dining room table and another a big distressed blue J for J's big boy room!  The evening ended with playing outside with our pup Paris and some wine. 

Yesterday we went to lunch with some friends and hung out at home and caught up on some laundry.  I wanted to go to Target for the Lily Pulitzer line, but that didn't happen.  Plus, with all of the talk out there, I'm sure I saved myself some sanity.  We finished off the weekend watching about half of the ACM Awards, I love Blake and Luke as hosts!  We'll finish watching the rest tonight I'm sure.



Now on to the fun part....

As we're approaching bathing suit season (for some of us it's already here), many have been amping up their workouts.  How fun would be nice to have some fresh workout gear for the season?  A few of my favorite bloggers and I have teamed up to giveaway at $200 gift card to Lululemon. We all know their clothes are not cheap, so the lucky winner can go on a shopping spree on us to get a jump start on their workout wardrobe for the warmer months.




Have a great day!

Congrats to hubby! What an accomplishment. I really want to hit up HomeGoods but I've been avoiding it because I know I'll spend way too much money once I finally go in there. They always have the cutest stuff!

I didn't realize your hubby is a fireman. So is mine! He's only been on the paid department for 3 years but has been volunteering for 10+. Congrats!
