Relaxing Monday

So its Monday morning and why yes I am up at 7:30 ( thank you pups)

But I am watching GCB and still in my pajamas :)

HOORAY SPRING BREAK!!!

I am really excited to spend this week relaxing, cleaning and catching up with errands and friends

But most of that will have to wait until tomorrow cause today is all about me and my relaxation!!!

So here is my plan:

1. Watch all my shows Andrew hates on our DVR

2. Read some more of the Hunger Games 

( I must admit I am enjoying it)

3. Not leave my Pj's :)

I have some great posts planned for you this week so stay tuned for my exciting week :)

I will give it a try...

So I am sure this is a shock to all you Hunger Games fans out there 

butt..... I have not read the book.

With school, work and hanging out with my husband I do not have much time for reading.

I decided with Spring Break around the corner I could probably squeeze in some extra me time for reading and figured that the Hunger Games was the perfect choice.

My Kindle very much is appreciating the love

I am about 30 pages in and I am definitely hooked

I am however disappointed to say that while the easiness of this read is upper elementary, the content is not as much. I have seen many elementary and even early middle grades student reading this and while it could be a starting point for great discussion among families and their children, I highly doubt that is what is happening. 

However I will be finishing the first book over break and possibly starting the second one since we do have 8 hours worth of driving during our trip to and from Charleston.  

I'm In I'm In!!!

So it final happened!

I recieved my first acceptance letter to Graduate School 

My precious NC State I will be glad to grace your presence for another year!!!

I am still waiting on a few more letters but NC State and Meredith were my top choices..

If I get in both I will have a tough decision to make!!

They are saved!!!!

My precious Jack Rogers...

I thought I was going to have to retire them when the two piece came out during the first wear of the year.

They are my favorite ones

This beautiful bone color goes with everything

But thanks to the wonderful shoe cobbler

They are as good as new

So if you ever need shoes repaired I would recommend them 100%

They dyed my wedding shoes a very pretty blush pink and they fixed my toe piece and resoled my jacks

I forever owe them :)

Dancing to the Sweet 16

We did it!

My beloved Wolfpack made it to the Sweet Sixteen!

Somewhere up in basketball heaven Jimmy Valvano is giving people hugs:)

So proud of the boys in red

Remember Never give up :)

Hope your weekend was as great as the wolfpack win :)

I am so spoiled by my wonderful husband.
