Playing Catch-up

by //

Today is filled of things like renewing my license and returning curtains that I don’t want, so I don’t have much for you. But I just had to pop in and brag on my hubby and how sweet and amazing he is. He not only planned my birthday for 6 months, hung out with me and my 2 girlfriends for 2 days and actually enjoyed himself, took me out to dinner at a place I’ve been dreaming about for over a year… that wasn’t enough. He saved his pennies and bought me these:

He knew how bad I wanted them and he does everything I can to make my life the best it can be and I’m seriously blown away at his thoughtfulness, generosity, kindness, and love.

And last night, as I was having a melt-down, he did everything he could to make it all better. I am such a lucky girl!

Weekend Attire

This weekend I realized that my everyday attire is what some consider their weekend attire. And I realized that I get more dressed up on weekends than I am most of the week. So I decided exactly what I needed was a sweatshirt so I could complete this look that I found on pintrest:

And even though I have boots that will totally work, I am pretty sure I need these frye boots. Let’s just say I mentioned to Bob that I’m saving for them. 🙂

Howdy Y’all! Whatcha think of my new cowboy boots? I’m kind of loving them! I’ve only worn them once, but so far we’re best friends. Although I have a bone to pick with the heel. Who does he think he is being so tall? My friend told me that they’re actually really dressy cowboy boots because of how high the heel is. But…I guess…Well, I didn’t realize there was such a thing as dressy or casual cowboy boots. To me they all fit in one category. Cowboy boots. But now I know that if I ever attend a country wedding where dressy cowboy boots are needed, these would be perfectly appropriate.

So, I got these at a boot warehouse in the middle of Missouri. I didn’t even save the bag so I don’t know the name of it. 🙁 Booo! But, these boots are by the brand Laredo! I love them, but there were a few pair that were more comfortable and just as cute, but these were only $115 (as opposed to $350), so they won the prize.

I don’t know why I can’t stop buying boots. It’s not cold, or even cool here. It’s just turning into an addiction I guess. So far I have bought 2 new pair this summer and I’m hoping to get another pair for this fall and winter. I should be able to stop there, but I can’t make any promises.

What items are you not able to say no to?
