Wow, 2017!! So hard to believe. It really is true what they say...the older you get, the faster life passes you by! I'm not going to let it pass me by, I intend to live every second to the fullest!! This weekend we celebrate another college kid's birthday and get to go out to dinner as a family before both boys head back on Sunday.
1. Fun Over the Holidays
You know how much I've loved time with the boys home. Here are some snippets of time
over the holidays...so sad it's over...

2. Beauty Bonanza
Don't you just love getting a bevy of new beauty products to try? Here are some of the pretties bestowed upon me. Cannot wait to try them all out.
The boys did real good, one of the gifts they got was this perfume sampler, where you try out 14 different perfumes like Eternity Now, Versace, Michael Kors etc, then you take back the coupon to Sephora for a full sized bottle of the one you like the best.
So fun to try all these scents out.

4. White Coats
Something about a white coat is so cool and classy. My mom got me the Perfect Michael Kors coat for Christmas. I just love the way it is made. I know white coats scare some people but I just love them. If you want another color this one comes in like 7 HERE

5. Volley Binge Watching
Call us crazy but because we couldn't decide which of our new binge TV series we liked best, we are watching 2 at the same time, We call it "Volley Binge Watching!" We watch 1 episode of SOA and then 1 of Homeland. Sometimes we switch it up and watch 2 of each, lol. We live on the edge like that. With all the good TV coming back however, we're in a quandary.....so much good viewing right now...so little time.
Oh and make sure you ahead over to The Blended Blog where we are showcasing our #1 post of the Year. It involves an awesome Gal Pal of mine...
Live this weekend to the fullest friends!!

I love a white coat in the winter...it gets so dirty though, that's my one complaint. Looks like you had an awesome holiday! Can't wait to meet you in 2017.

I swear you live with the most handsomest - I know that's not a word btw! - men on earth! And like I told you earlier this week, they treat Mama and wifey well! What awesome gifts, Andrea, and they totally nailed it! They just scream YOU! I would love to own a white coat, but there is no way on this earth I would be able to keep it looking so pristine! Well, no sneax here so I guess y'all have it all up North! Enjoy your weekend and stay warm! Break out some Bailey's and march on with that volley watching!
ReplyDeleteThat picture of you laying across the boys is the cutest thing EVER! And they are all so handsome!! I know that you enjoyed every single second with them. Happy weekend, Andrea!
ReplyDeleteOooh love your Christmas haul! Especially the make up! I'm so impressed with your boys getting that for you! I got a gift card to Sephora and will be spending it this weekend haha! Happy Friday!

Look at all your goodies. So much fun to try out all the new make up.
ReplyDeleteMe in a white coat is an mess waiting to happen. I am the clumsiest person ever.
That fragrance sampler is such a neat idea! Hmm! Maybe I'll hint to my hubby about it for V-Day if they still offer it. You need to do a beauty post about all of those great products you got! So many great photos of you and your family! How are the holidays past us already?!

It looks like you had the best time with your boys while they were home, and I love that white coat that you got for Christmas! I binged SOA, but I never actually finished watching it. I feel like I need to before everything is back on tv. And Homeland is seriously so good too! I understand why you're volley bingeing them!
