EXTREME GIFTER AND WUW

I simply do not know anyone who does not want to be cozy! I especially like being extra cozy at the holidays and love me some Christmas jammies!
The minute I saw at Target, I knew I had to have them because it fits me to a T. The saying that is, I love to give gifts and I admit, sometimes I go a little overboard, but nothing brings me more joy than picking out the perfect gift for the people I love.


Our fashion theme this week is Christmas PJ’s and these are perfect. Soft as can be, like $20, a festive color and just the right comfy cozy. Christmas jammies make me feel extra festive. As if I need any more reason to be festive? Lol. You’ll love chilling in these cuties. 





And speaking of gifts, are you done shopping? I am except for a few lotto tix for stockings. The boys, on the other hand, are still at it and will probably be frantically wrapping here in the next few days. Maybe with mom's help. LOL. 



You can't really see all the presents because I have most of them hid behind the tree stacked to about 5 feet. LOL. All are wrapped beautifully but I like to put the smaller ones in the front.
The stretch is here, relax, enjoy and I'll have another cocoa and Bailey's for ya in my jammies, lol!

FRIDAY FAVORITES...HELLO CHRISTMAS SEASON

Ahh Friday my sweet friends! I feel like the holiday festiveness has officially started this week! And I just want to hold it in time. I’m trying to savor each and every moment. I hope you are too and I hope your weekend is all things amazing and cozy!

1. Family Fun Day
As you probably know from my stories, the two college boys headed back but I’ll be seeing them again before you know it and have them home for almost a month! This past weekend we had such a fun family day out. A local brewery has this awesome small plate feast. They make all kinds of unusual and delightful dishes and you can grab as many as you want. Plus, it’s the spot that has my beloved reindeer mule cocktail! However, for some odd reason because it’s oh so popular, they are not calling it a reindeer mule they’re now calling it a cranberry mule. Bah humbug brewery, lol. 


Friend Fun Day
Wednesday, I got to enjoy a holiday lunch at a quaint little café boutique that I had mentioned Wednesday on the blog called Birds Gotta Fly! My dear friend Kim and I have known each other almost 20 years and are so much alike that she enjoyed this place as much as I did. I did not get a food picture but our lunch at the café consisted of a yummy spinach poppy seed salad, a turkey pesto Panini and a Cuban latte. We shopped a little too and just had to both get this adorable truck sign. As we both live on the river and in the woods, LOL!



Kim got me the CUTEST slippers!! Sparkly, Cozy Fun!

 LOFT Earrings
These earrings from The Loft! I saw them in the store and was swooning but no sale at the time. So, when these puppies went on 50% off, I scooped them up and love them! That’s the reflection from my chandelier in the top part, lol.

The Finished Tray
Oh Target Dollar spot, sometimes you are just so, pardon the pun, “spot on!” It is not every time I go to Target that I find just the right stuff at the Dollar spot, but this week I found two of the sweetest little gems for my Christmas tiered Tray!!. Just look at this little red truck in Santa hat, a dollar each!
