Weekend via iPhone (again!)

I can't believe it is Wednesday and I am just now doing a weekend recap...

This summer thing has my schedule all thrown off.

Here is my weeekend via my iPhone

Friday was my big news...I was suppose to be getting a new car!!!

However that deal fell through unfortunately because the sales guy refused to even lower the price $100 dollars..so my parents figured we could wait until another great deal came along. It was so sad, we even test drove it over night so I really had my hopes up about it.

But Saturday the Air Station which is a big military base here in town had a Dierks Bentley concert that was open to the public!

It was so much fun and he was so good!

Here is my bangles that I wore to the concert

So fun and summer-y!

Sunday the weather was so nice that Michael and my step dad decided to go fishing...I of course had to tag along because I wanted to lay out on the bow of the boat to tan!!

I only got one picture :(

Sunday I snapped this picture of me and Mikey's drinks!

It was just funny that I grabbed the Clemson tumbler and he grabbed the Carolina one because they are huge rivals in South Carolina. He is such a Carolina fan and I am Clemson..so the competition between the teams when they play is definitely fun!

And mine as well throw Monday into the cycle here since I didn't do a post

This is the only thing that got me through my miserable final that I will say that I got an A on!

Have a great rest of the weekend everyone!

Finally Friday

Everytime Friday rolls around I feel 100 lbs lifted from my shoulders. I was just looking at my planner and I only have 1 final this semester!!!! How that happened I don't know, so until May 30 my planner is free and honestly, it looks weird not having things penciled in on every day

But I am NOT complaining!

Right now I am packing all my goodies for tomorrow for my first Stella & Dot party and I am absolutely ecstatic!

2. Add an image of the Versatile Blogger Award

3. Thank the blogger who nominated you in a post with a link to their site.

4. Share 7 completely random facts about yourself.

5. Include this set of rules.

6. Inform each nominated blogger of their nomination.

 

7 Random Facts About Me: 

- I have a shopping conplusive disorder (SCD)..totes just made that up. Definition: Going shopping and buying all this crazy stuff. Get home and it sits for a few days, then returning it. I always do this and I don't know why. But my mom has implemented a plan to help my SCD. Now I call her when I am at a store and she talks me out of buying it..hehe..it's so bad!!!

- I never make my bed in the mornings. I turn my alarm off, hop out of bed and I MIGHT pull the comforter up but that is rare.

- Pet peeve #1: When toilet paper rolls under and not over. 

I will always switch it if it rolls under.

- I eat desert every night and I tell myself its okay but I burned those calories at the gym that morning..so going to the gym is clearly counterproductive!

- I, just like Jessica, love Mexican food! Me and Mikey have our favorite restaurant and when we walk in they know exactly what we want. We used to go at least once a week, but we had to cut back because it was getting ridiculous the amount of times we went per week.

- I love doing crafts! I always am looking for a project to do on Pintrest! I would so much rather try to make something than buy it because it would be more personal and meaningful.

- I also love cooking and baking! My family loves when I am home for dinner because I always take over in the kitchen. If I am bored, I will find a fun recipe and bake something for a friend or Michael

Weekend via iPhone (again!)

 Happy Monday! Hope everyone had a great weekend! I ate enough food in the last three days that could probably keep me full till Thursday. As much as I wanted to set snooze at 6am this morning, I forced myself to get out of bed.

Luckliy I did because I had such as a great workout! Any who, here's some pictures that I captured in the last three days:

 

 Finally my case came in from Lipstickshades! Love it, it's not as big and bulky as most covers which is great!

Saturday the weather was absolutely fantastic: It got to about 78 degrees! So of course I laid out my the pool and finished my book!

 

The sky was so blue and beautiful! When I got done, I was feeling very summer-y and made a berry smoothie!

 

 Saturday night we hibachi at the best Hibachi restaurant in Savannah.

Hibachi's are always fun and exciting!

 Superbowl Sunday was filled with great family, friends, and food!

Here is the view of the sunset right at kick off! It's a tad blurry because I turned to watch the kick and moved the camera :S for some reason I didn't take another picture

 Here's some of the goodies:

Tigertown Weekend Recap

 Hello everyone! I apologize for the lack of my posting last week. With it being my birthday week there was so much going on that time slipped away from me.

This weekend Michael and I drove to Clemson to visit with some friends! Here is my weekend though my iPhone pictures.

 Saturday we went for a 6 mile hike at Table Rock! It was so beautiful

 I highly recommend going here because there are so many different trails that suite everyone's level and they are realitively easy to navagate.

 As soon as we finished, we were dying of starvation becuase it was like 4:30 and we didn't eat before we left. Since we were so desperate we stopped at the best mexican resturant for chips and dip just to put food in our bellies! (Salsa and guac obviously doesn't photograph well!! haha)

Guacamole has never tasted so good!

Here is an OOTD:

 LOFT blouse, A&E jeans, MK riding boots, and MK watch.

(Side note, LOFT was having such a great deal this past week, highly recommend to check it out)

Here's the rest:

My friends who I stayed with surprised me on Friday when I walked into the apartment with balloons and cake! 

It was such a great weekend spent with the best people. I am so blessed to have the people I do in my life!

 Did everyone else have a great weekend?

Back to School Necessities and my Smoothie!

Hello everyone!

Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! I went Friday for the consultation and I love the new gym plus it's downstairs from where I work so it makes it really convenient. Also how guilty will I feel leaving work and passing the gym and not go?AND I went on Saturday which is a big step for me :)

Go me!

Yesterday I made a green monster smoothie from a recipe I found on Pintrest! I have been dying to try one of these but was always scared because of the spinach. So I felt on top of the world from going to the gym on a Saturday and was determined to make one when I got home

Heres the recipe that I got from here

Green Monster Spinach Smoothie

Serves 1

Ingredients:

1 frozen sliced banana

1 Tablespoon peanut butter

1/2 cup 0% Vanilla Chobani Greek yogurt

1 cup Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Breeze (or other kind of milk)

4 cups baby spinach (or more, or less)

Directions:

Combine all ingredients in a blender and blend until smooth.

Nutritional stats:

350 calories, 10g fiber, 21g protein

When I made it I definitely changed the recipe and made it my own. I added frozen mixed berries to it and it was so great! Plus I had soy egg-nog that needed to be used so I substituted that from 1/2 of the milk and used regular non-fat vanilla yogurt. However it didn't turn out green and was a dark purple and just didn't photograph very well. Here's pictures of what the original recipe would look like:

Being that classes start again tomorrow I feel the need to find new items I need.

Here are some products I have my eye on for a new semester:

New bag for my books

This is from the  Create your own collection from Polo Ralph Lauren.

This bag comes in Navy but I love the white and orange (Clemson colors!!)

A Sarah Pinto agenda

 These agendas are so great! I love the way the inside is laid out:

 And also I am on the look out for new books for the coffee table. (Kind of school related since it is a book!! :) )

Shop Bop has great fashion books to choose from. Here are a few that I picked.

I am off to get ready for the day. I am crossing my fingers that it warms up enough to lay out today because I could use some color :) 

Have a wonderful rest of the weekend!
