My 5 This Friday!

Happy Friday everyone! I'm so glad it's Friday and I'm sure you are too. So let's get down to the goodies!......





{ONE} 


So this week i was able to wrap up the fall semester, with two finals and a presentation I had to give, I overall completed the year well. I also was able to find out that I am able to get an Associates degree next year in Child Development which will enable me to be an Pre-K Teacher!!! (So ecstatic!!!) So with my crazy, finals week and having literally no energy, I was able to in between finals celebrate my brother-In laws 22nd bday. In our household we literally have a lot of December babies. Anyway here are a few photos of the family get together.



Cake was super Delisch! (Dave's Bakery).

So with our house being fully decorated (You can see pics Here if you missed the post) we have been on a mission to find an affordable tree, Luckily we graciously allowed to borrow one this year, with our possibility of moving next year we didn't want to buy one just yet. So I decided to go very classic, with red, gold and silver ornaments, and adding a borrowed snowflake topper, and cute brown tree skirt, it was the finishing touch we needed and just in time for Christmas!

So I'm aware Fall is about to be over, and the first day of Winter is in a couple of weeks, but I want to share my favorite fall jewelry piece. I found this Owl Necklace over a year ago, at a local shop in my hometown area. It's at Cato's. (Check out their website Here) I'm not able to find this specific necklace on their site, but that have other adorable options too! Very affordable and my MIL & I love to shop there. I'm hoping we make a girls date soon!

My last item on today's list is my overall favorite and I'm super excited to share it with you. A few day's ago my blogger friend Jenn, was having a CaseApp giveaway. This is a site (which I embedded the link if you click on the word) where you can design your own phone case or laptop Skin. You can upload pics, and add colors, texts, and more! It's a perfect gift to give yourself or anyone in the family! 

For those of you who don't know Jenn I'll introduce her. She is a wonderful talented gal, who is sweeter than candy! and the Author of her Blog, Crown Me In Glitter  . She has a beautiful family, and I'm looking forward to getting to know her! 
  

So after submitting my details for the giveaway, I just honestly forgot about it, till the other day Jenn emailed me to tell me I won! (I never win anything, so honestly I had to like email her back to make sure.) After the email confirmation, and the coupon code, I went to designing my very first case. 






Well That's My Friday in a nutshell. Hope everyone has a fantastic Weekend! And can't wait to see what your 5 are!

5 On Friday! :)

Hello everyone. So guess what it's Fab Friday! So ready for the weekend and I'm sure you are too. 
So to start this Friday off right here is a list of my five things this Friday. 





One. 


With crazy hectic week I'm all about spending some time to pamper myself. With chores consistent and finals week, that's not much time. However, after decorating the house for Christmas, and a very tight budget this month, I decided to give my self a much needed fresh coat of polish. Only I wanted to pass on the Christmas spirit. This nail Polish I absolutely love. It's called Pacifica - Red Red Wine. (and it's only $9!). Okay so I'm very active on the computer and use my hands daily and I'm always on the look out for the best nail polish (Chip proof!) and ladies this is it. This one bottle has lasted me over a year and I purchased it last October. There are many other shades as well, but this one I love and use for Christmas time! 


























Two.


As I've stated before with the first one, I love getting my nails done. (Although my pocketbook says otherwise.) I've mostly created boards through Pinterest to gather the latest nail fashion's but here as of lately, been kinda doing my own thing. Well since my halls are already decked for the season, I decided to get Festive with my Manicure. I used the same color Pacifica Red Red Wine (Which I always sing the song when I mention this specific nail polish) But I added a little Multi Sparkle polish which is Sally Hansen- Xtreme Wear- Strobe Light.(I've embedded a link to see Sally Hansen's collection).  Perfect duo to get festive of course, you could pair it with a gold, silver or green glitter polish, but i tend to get the glitter polish to match the shade. So here is how it turned out. Love it!!!








Three.


So upon my Husband and Myself getting hitched this past June, we had previously in May started remolding our home, (AkA- The Barn). It's located in the back of my in laws yard, and we absolutely love it! Although its spacious for two people, we seem to have loved the overall look. We pretty much had several appliances donated and were graciously given to us through friends. One piece of Furniture was the couch set through a mutual friend of ours. So Although it doesn't match we've began looking to hopefully (Possibly Tax Returns) buy a new sofa to go with the decor in our home. So we've been making little dates to go look at furniture when we can. We found this pretty couch, but wasn't the first choice, but I couldn't help snap a photo of my Handsome Hubby trying out the different seating arrangements. 








Four.



So my last post, I posted photos of our place all spruced and festive for the Holidays, which I might add is the most wonderful time of year. It's my favorite time of year to spend with family, and even more special this year since it's the first Holiday Season married! I love starting new traditions with him, and although we haven't gotten a tree just yet, and haven't begun to pull out the lists and gather gifts, Just listening to Holiday radio, and look out the door with our Christmas lights, is perfect enough. So my Husband knows this is my Favorite holiday and time of year, so knowing this, he let me pick out my very own Christmas mug for our place. (which the child in me completely shed tears with this specific mug!). Okay so I exaggerated a little in that statement, but I did get all giddy cause the Peanuts are classics for any occasion. 
   





Five.



My last item is all about comfort and style. Which with these two terms can be rather tricky. So last Christmas my wonderful, loving, fabulous, MIL. (Mother in law).  Gave me cheetah print slippers that she ordered through Avon. I know i'm just beginning to wear them a year later, but I specifically did this cause at the time I wanted to save things for after I was married to my Love. So since the weather is getting a tad nippy, I decided to pull these babies out and I love them. I have them on literally 24/7 of course. (Might I add only while I'm home, I'm not a Slipper Walmart/Errand Gal). They have enough support for standing to do dishes and keep my toes extra cozy warm! I literally love them and recommend them to any gal on the search for a cute slipper.
