Friday Love! {Stacy Reeves Photography + Opie Foto}
I can't believe The Game moved to Thanksgiving -- since I'm scheduling this ahead of time, I'm not sure who won at this point (Gig em, Ags!), but I thought it fitting to feature fab A&M and (could-be-related to) UT wedding awesomeness. Happy Friday!

This could still happen....
One touchdown behind is not bad at all... Go Ags! And the best part? Watching the game in pjs!
I know, a little random, but hey, my "Texas A&M" options were a little limited!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
I'm thankful for :

I'm thankful for :
- the blessings God sends my way: sunshine, flowers, and the little things that cheer me up when I feel overwhelmed or cranky or grumpy or sad;
- my amazing support system, at work, at home, and across the state and state lines through my girls who make me feel incredible;
- the people who understand me and love me no matter how little sense I make or what craziness I might dream up;
- having a job that I love, that challenges me, and that has led me to so many wonderful people and new opportunities and new confidence in myself;
- being healthy, and the health of my family;
- for amazing food, and the ability to enjoy all of this; and
- for all the new bundles of joy and love celebrations.

whoa.whoa.whoa: Etsy craft fair!
omg, let's all go + cheers-in the holidays!! One of my friends told me about this earlier, but I had no idea what she was talking about -- I.am.so.excited. Do I just miss craft shows or something? Whatevs, I'm totally there. Maybe not early enough to get a goodie bag (seriously, if you're one of the first 25 there on either Sat or Sun, can you please drop me a line + lemme know what you snag?) -- but hopefully early enough to not miss out on anything!
Love Shak #14: Post- Party
L: I'm sure this isn't in the budget. But whoa whoa whoa, post-party at a bowling alley? What *doesn't* say Love Shak like this?? Okay, really, I'm not sure what would tie you guys in to a bowling alley. But it sure would be fun :) What if I said these socks would be on me? I know, I'm *such* the negotiator.

Etsy Love {crumpetcake}
So. I think I fell a little in love with druzy via Emily of cupcakesandcashmere, who started a line of necklaces within the past year. But I was able to hold my own against Temptation.
And then.
I can't recall exactly how, but last week, someone led me to crumpetcake. Who has a delightful collection of all kinds of trinkets (hello, " I heart bacon!" necklace!) and the druzy beauties. My faves?

Cheer for the day
So. It is only 3:45pm but my day has already been long and stressful. I know, bummer. Want to know what made me smile, perhaps when I was seething most?
Imagine this in darker, wintery colors. Like... a deep brown, almost plum-hue to it.
And paired with the most lovely lavendar shirt.
Worn by a man in his early 40's, I'd hazard. Standing on the street corner, looking as if he had not a care in the world.
And I just smiled.
I was thinking how ridiculous it is that fashion can be an instant upper -- but really. It caught me off guard because.. gosh, it was just so fashion-forward (or, at least adventurous!), and ... I don't know, maybe I was admiring that confidence to try something so not-the-usual around here? And this whole seasonal concept -- I mean, clearly the color wouldn't have worked in the summer or spring. And, I'm not exactly a fashion maven (is that somebody who knows lots about fashion?), but I like to think I'm at least with it or close to that, or something. but, um I'm still mostly wearing the same things I wore in the summer (less pastels, but still...), and there was this *guy* who was clearly conscious of this whole other (fashion) world, like I want to be!
Anyway. I liked it. It made me smile. And temporarily distracted from terrible post office experience that I do not even want to go into. Except Sis, you better not give me any grief about this very nice thing that I have done for you. Because all I can say is grrrr.
A-hem. Here's to a lovely afternoon. Heart of Light looks to be setting up a lovely week of non-stress holiday postings -- what a delightful idea! This made my day start out well, but, hmm. Maybe I should do a similar thankful/cheer post in the afternoon, as I'm working on 80 bajillion projects + feel the stress coming on :D I know -- Self, you are already too busy, why would adding on one more thing to your plate be good for you? Because -- yummy things make you feel better, no matter what :)

Polyvore-tastic!
We are *about* to head out to a Pre-Thanksgiving Thanksgiving feast with our friends :) -- so excited! And late, but that's beside the point :) What to wear? Something a bit fancy but duh, I'm with friends and *know* I will eat loads -- so, obviously something comfy!
And let's pretend I was doing Thanksgiving with the in-laws for the first time, or meeting parents for the first time. What to wear? If I had the polyvore wardrobe at my disposal, I might go with bringing these items, so I could be ready for a bit dressy or just dressy-casual!

What to love about being a grown up
So. I am slowly cranking out what needs to get done. verrrrrry slowly. Slowly in part because I get distracted. By what? Ahh, these bags, which would be a perfect reward for my hard work, no? And look oh-so-chic. Even if I have nowhere to bring them to except my office. But hey, maybe one day I'll get to the Big Place, right?
