Day 20 of Things I Love

Day 20 of Things I Love: Mani/Pedi
 
I'm really not sure I know of any girl that doesn't like getting pampered. Seriously, what is there not to love about getting your nails done?
 
Sadly I don't get them done as often as I probably should but in time that will hopefully change.
 
Back around Christmas I found a Amazon Local deal to get a mani/pedi for $28.00.
Score.
I was so excited about it that I shared the deal with my life long best friends, Sarah and Kathleen.
So we decided right then and there to buy it before it sold out.
And today was the day we used it!
 
We started the day out at IHOP. All I have to say about that is...
 CIN-A-STACK pancakes are to die for.
We then left there and headed to Green Hills Mall in Nashville (where the salon was located)
We walked right in and they began working on our toes right away. I got the a light shade of pink for my toes since after all it is February!
On my nails I just got the french tips.
We then left there and decided to walk around and window shop.
Then since we were at Green Hills we just couldn't leave without stopping by and getting the famous Cheesecake Factory Cheesecake!!
I even brought Matthew home a Piece of chocolate cheesecake!
 
The girls day and being pampered was very much needed.

Day 22 & 21 of Things I Love

Oops! I forgot to post yesterday. So here it goes!
 
Day 22 of Things I Love: Rotel Cheese Dip
 
Is it bad that most of my posts are about food? Oh well.
One of my favorite (unhealthy) meals is Rotel cheese dip! Probably because it is SO incredibly easy to make.
 
All you need is:
Velveeta Cheese (1 block)
1 Can of Ro*tel diced tomatoes
 
 
 and since me and Matthew don't really like tomatoes we pour the whole can into the blender and puree it first THEN pour it over the cut up cheese blocks (in a microwave safe bowl)
 
 
Seriously it is so EASY.
 After that you just heat it up in the microwave one minute at a time and stir it after each minute.
 
Here is our cheese dip and chips from this past Sunday for the Super Bowl
 
 
 
Day 21 of Things I Love: (Colored) Skinny Jeans
 
Here lately I have been obsessed with colored skinny jeans. They have been popular since probably last spring and when they first came out I wasn't too impressed with them, I'm not sure why, I just wasn't.
I have been on the hunt for a good deal on red skinny jeans (I am a bargain shopper and I hardly ever buy any clothes unless they are on sale or I have a coupon)
Well yesterday I was doing some online shopping and I found them! I found the PERFECT pair of red skinny jeans. I found them at Kohl's. They are put out by LC Lauren Conrad.
 
 
They are regular $54.99 and they were on sale for $29.00 AND
I found a promo code for 15% off.
Score.
 
They will be here no later than the 14th...Just in time for Valentine's Day.
 
 
So excited to mix and match different tops with them!
 
Here are some other colored pants I'm in love with.
My next search is going to be for green.
Just in time for st. Patricks day!

 
 
 
 
I found some other really cute colors at Kohl's but after I read their description I found out they were jeggings.
Not a fan of jeggings. At all.
 
 
What are your favorite color pants?

Day 23 of Things I Love

Day 23 of Things I Love: Monogram!!
 
"My rule is, if it's not moving - monogram it." -- Reese Witherspoon
 
This literally is SO true for me and my sister. We LOVE all things monogrammed.
I just think it is so classy/southern looking. This past Christmas a lot of my gifts were monogrammed...and I loved it.
 
Here are a few Christmas presents that were monogrammed
 
 
My mom's friend does all of our monogramming for us for a very decent price and we are so grateful.
 
I picked this tote out at Hobby Lobby for just $11.00
 
 
 The adorable cake carrier from my aunt and uncle. She ordered it off of Etsy!
 
$5.00 solid color fleece scarves from Wal-Mart.
 

 
LOVE it all

 
My cute Ipone charger sticker.

 
I have never had a personalized license plate so when I opend this Christmas morning I was over flowing with happiness.

 
Seriously in LOVE with my monogrammed May Design planner
that Matthew got me for Christmas!!

 
Wish List of monogrammed things:
This adorable belt
 
Need this for fall of 2013
 

Such a cute tote and love the colors.

 
Just what my car needs...

 
How could you not love/want a coffee mug like this?!

 
Would make such a cute wedding gift!

 
I even have a board on Pinterest just for monogram...make sure you follow me!

Day 24 of Things I Love

 
 
Day 24 of Things I Love: My tv shows
 
There are a few shows that I watch every week. I might not get to watch them when they come on that night but thank the Lord for DVR!!
 
Lets see here...
 
Monday nights: The Bachelor

 
OH MY GOSH...Sean Lowe
 
 
...need I say more?
I am actually watching it right now and they are in Canada. Jealous.
 
Tuesday nights: Pretty Little Liars
This show came out the summer before my senior year of high school and I was hooked right away. Even though it's probably considered a high school show for young teen girls I am still hooked on this murder mystery/drama!
 
 
 
Wednesday nights: Duck Dynasty
 
 
How could you not love them? They are a member of the church, the show is totally kid friendly, they are country and have morals and of course the beards...but I have to say what I think I love most about the show is the ladies of the show.
 
 
 My favorite is Si of course.
 
 
I have to admit I didn't watch the first season when it came on Wednesday nights but I was sick one day recently and Matthew brought over the first season and we watched it and I fell in love with the beards.
 
Thursday nights: Vampire Diaries
 
 
Stefan & Damon Salvatore...hot vampires? I'll take it.
 Me and my dad both love this show and we both watch it each week. Not only do I love this show but I love the bonding I get with my dad over this show!
 
Now that I think about it I watch a lot of shows...oops!
 
What are your favorite shows?
