High Five for Friday!

It's that time again....Friday, yes! Today is exam 1 of the new semester, so I will be pretty excited when Friday evening rolls around. So..lets get started.

Linking up with Lauren for H54F!

The week started with my little brother's high school soccer banquet. I'm so proud of him and his award. His team had a GREAT season.


I found this great polka dot shirt on clearance and what do ya know, it matched my favorite necklace! I don't understand why I have the fashion desires of a 7 year old but I do. I can't pass up a polka dot find no matter how hard I try.


I've also become fully committed to the sock bun. I think I've finally mastered it and it's been my go-to look lately. I look like I've just seen a ghost in this picture, but I'm pretty pumped about the new 'do.


Finally, I ended the week with my sweet valentine's day gift from Rikki at Thirsty, Nerdy, Cats for our Valentine's Day link up. 


On to the weekend and a little me time. 

How was your week?

Valentine Party!



I'm so excited to be participating in this FANTASTIC Valentine's Day Blog Link Up Party hosted by some fabulous ladies. I originally found the link up through Lauren from the Grey Desk Blog. 

We were paired with another blogger whom we got to know throughout the month.



My Pair Up was with Rikki from Thirsty Nerdy Cats. This girl is GREAT. We found out we had plenty in common. We even lived in the same state for a while. She also shares my love for UK sports and Randall Cobb. Just so happens, I'm a lover of the Green Bay Packers. Pretty Cool.


Anywho, Rikki has also JUST launched a new blog and YOU need to check it out. She is a book, wine, and cat lover and blogs about it all. A great triad in my opinion.

Now, for the interesting part. Rikki and I have thought for the past 24 hours that my gift was missing. I was even searching for it in the dark last night. FedEx was on the top of our bad list. BUT, no worries. I found her package waiting for me this morning on the porch next door.


She sent me a creative, WONDERFUL gift that I can't wait to enjoy. Inside my box were tons of little goodies. As we've gotten to know each other, she has found out how busy I am. SO, she sent me a little card telling me the goodies were for me to "indulge in some me time." I have some lotion, bubble bath, sleep mask, lip gloss, nail polish, candle, note cards, and some DELICIOUS chocolate chip cookies. My goodies are all Strawberry Champagne scented and smell fantastic. 


I can't wait for the "me" time. It has been such a pleasure getting to know Rikki. So you should check out all of the different blogs out there. There are tons of great people waiting to meet you!
