FRIDAY FAVORITES...BUFFALO CHECKED EDITION

What a fun week this has been! Everything from Christmas shopping to a lunch at the most charming café and I’m happy to say, my decorating is pretty much done! Next up, the boys will slowly arrive home starting today, we will fill our grateful bellies with Thanksgiving, have lots of laughs and you can bet more shopping and lots of baking will be involved!

1. Buffalo Checked Tree and Decor

Y’all know I am completely mad for buffalo plaid. Now, I only like a little of it, I don’t decorate everything in my house in buffalo plaid as I like a variety but I sure do love how the hall tree area turned out and I did my entire laundry room in the black and white buffalo check as well!

2. Lunch with the BEST!!

It’s always a wonderful day when I get to see my high school best friend! We may not get to see each other that often but we always pick up right where we left off. We each have a boy at the same college, all our kids went to the same high school and we don’t live too far from each other. We still have just as much in common today as we did back then and it was really cool because my mom showed up where we were with a friend of hers to shop so Rolonda and her got to visit a bit, which was a treat for them both as well! My High school days were so enriched with her a as my partner in crime.

 

Mom looks extra tall her but she is only 5'3, her sweet friend Joani is just 4'10!
Cuties! 

Lots of Buffalo Plaid to be found at Birds Gotta Fly...they have the sweetest little lunch Cafe there too called Steelyard Coffee

4. Monogrammed Sherpa Pullover

I am super excited to share this cozy monogrammed Buffalo Checked Wubby Pullover with you! It is one of my favorite pieces and I didn’t hear about it until late in the season last year, so I didn’t have an opportunity to wear it as much. But I’m happy to say, the Etsy store that sells them guarantees you’ll get them in plenty of time as turnaround is fast and won’t they make great gifts for people you love and absolutely a super gift for you! So cute.

Tree Technology
You may have seen on my Instagram stories last Sunday that Mr. Nine and one of our sons who came home for a short time, were able to “smart out” all my Christmas lights. As in set up technology with the smart outlets and Wemos so that all the lights not only automatically come on and go off at a certain time, but I can simply tell Alexa to “turn on Christmas lights” and she literally turns them all on! So cool! Get both of these things for your outlets and the apps and you’ll be all set!

Ford v Ferrari 
I can tell you; this is the best movie Mr. Nine and I have seen in the movie theater since A star is born! It’s fast-paced and a beautiful story based on real life events!

Texas Takeaway

I wanted to share a couple more pictures of my babes and our Texas trip for several reasons. Number 1, I can’t stop thinking about the fun we had. Number 2, I’m counting the days until I can see these beauties in person again and Number 3, with all these holiday posts, I’m not sure when I’m going to get to recap the rest of our trip so let me just say this. My life is so much more enriched and blessed because of these ladies. They are the best thing to come out of blogging. Our dear Kellyann said it so eloquently last Friday about the feeling of tribe. I don’t really think I’ve had a tribe of women who all knew each other and loved each other unconditionally since school, so these ladies are an answer to prayer! There is nothing we can’t say to each other and nothing that will keep us from laughing and doing everything in our power to visit each other at least yearly! The only negative is not living closer. Blogging may become a thing of the past one day, but these ladies are magical gifts here to stay!

Without a doubt, sweet Chrissy, Kellyann, Shelly, Lisa and Laura will ALWAYS INSPIRE US ALL with their LOVE and TALENTS GALORE!! 

Have a Festive and Fun Filled Weekend Friends!
