weekend finds

If I told you that Ashley and I hadn't seen each other since the Charlotte trip over 2 months ago, would you think I was crazy? Well I AM, because that is what happened. It wasn't planned, we certainly want to see each other more often than that, but life is crazy and insane and we just had to wait it out.

Wait no longer! Ashley drove up to see me on Sunday and we set out to have a day of shopping and relaxation.

She arrived and I was FINALLY able to give her the latest ever birthday present and then we set out for Target. Because she SOMEHOW survives without one and I SOMEHOW hadn't been since the Charlotte trip. (Though my wallet probably thanks me for that one.)

After target we came back home and I surprised Ashley by having MEG over! First off, I'm constantly amazed by how well I get along in real life with my blogging friends - so much so that I don't really consider girls like Alexa, Ashley and Meg blogging friends, I just consider them friends. And secondly, we had such an amazing day together. No awkward moments (Meg and Ashley hadn't "met" yet.) or anything, and just FUN. They need to come back ASAP for a girls night with lots of wine. And candy.

We then set out to 19th street - the cutest street ever filled with local businesses in The Heights. We antiqued and went to the store we bought out amazing china hutch at and just had so much fun. (YOU GET IT, WE HAD FUN.)

Meg had never met Reid, so we went and made a pit-stop at my sister's for a bit and played with him some. He slept in a bit late that morning and hadn't napped yet, so he was all OVER the place. Ok, the candy I brought him probably didn't help much!

Playtime was over and we headed to Marshall's/Home Goods and hit the jackpot. Fall clothes everywhere! Now we just need it to get cold out so we can wear said clothes.

Overall, it was exactly what the doctor ordered. (I woke up feeling not so hot and today I feel fantastic, so DUH, they healed me.) I am so so so lucky that this little blog connects me to so many amazing girls. Women? Whatever, I just love them so much and am so blessed to have made so many great friendships.

Also, I got some pretty great things.

Target:

only the best fall candies ever.

every gal needs some animal print shoes.

 

Marshall's:

the most perfect ballet pink fall sweater.

this is the back view, and it is the most comfortable thing EVER.

distressed blue mirror for the living room.

 

I got some socks, too...but who wants to see a picture of socks on a blog? Yawn.
