I’m happy to report that after a successful and maybe a little too fun weekend, I’m feeling more chipper than I felt on Friday. This had to do with a couple of awesome things that occurred from Friday through right now.
First up, a new dress! Please excuse the closet mess and the fact Scott is wearing a sport coat with sweatpants. I had picked up his altered suit and he wanted to make sure it fit well. Anyway, the dress. I saw this little number from Phoebe Couture on Rue La La and my normal size was gone. I either had to go up and risk needing alterations, or down and not have it fit. I went down and the boob area could use some room, but I’m kind of hoping I lose a little of them through my workouts (trust me, I can stand to lose some). I cannot wait to wear this to… something! Good thing I have a bunch of weddings next year. ;)
Puppy time! That little lover is Lexie who made an appearance earlier this summer. Scott went to go get his inspection done with his buddy Jason, so Danielle and I spent the afternoon chatting and getting chomped on by this little cutie (man she is teething like crazy!). I also enjoy one (or two) of these.
Ah, shiraz. It was quite delicious. Although, I maybe should have kept it to one glass at the time. The four of us went over to Scott’s aunt’s house to celebrate his uncle’s 50th birthday. I had a little too much fun thanks to us introducing the party to pickle back shots (what is wrong with me?).
Those soon parlayed into a dance party starring yours truly. Thankfully, the video Scott took never got saved. Phew! I was a bit sluggish for most of Sunday and was happy Scott made it to Indiana (he works in Naperville, IL this week) without any incidents.
Finally, today we give you this new addition to our office:
I might be tasked with writing a process guide on how to use the thing, but I will do what needs to be done in order to get free coffee. :D
Today’s workout plan is to run a couple miles after work, then head to Hotbox Yoga for a nice sweat session this evening. Happy Monday!
Oh Pickle Backs. My fickle frenemy…. Cute dress, ladybug.
Hahaha I thought of you when we were doing them. Thank you!
I LOVE THAT DRESS!
It could be a little longer, but I’m still in my 20s so it’s totally okay, right?
Haha – would love to have seen a video
I totally would have posted it, too. No shame here!
LMAO i am so glad you pointed out scott in that photo because i didn’t notice him at first and now i am laughing so hard. you rock that dress, lady! svelte. i lost all my boobs when i lost weight.. and about twelve $50 VS bras. bah. oh well. LOVE LEXIE!
We roll fancy in the J-A house. Haha!
You are brave! I would have gone a size up an had alterations…but you are smokin!
The size chart was really close, but it was definitely risky since it was final sale. If it was too small I do have three younger sisters to “gift” to when things don’t fit, haha!
Love the dress you look so sexae!
You looked pretty snazzy this past weekend, too!
You look slammin in that dress!
Thank you! Now if only I was good at doing hair…
Super cute dress – damn girl. Lookin good!
Thanks, dear!
That dress is ADORABLE! Loving the color!
I’m a sucker for anything blue, so I could not refuse getting this dress.
That dress is super cute! You look great in it!
I totally didn’t even notice Scott in the background until you said something. So funny!
He probably wouldn’t fully appreciate us all having a chuckle at his expense, but it was too amusing not to share.
I honestly LOL’d when you mentioned Scott wearing a sport coat with sweatpants! So funny! Sounds like you had a pretty fun weekend! I, myself, would have been taking part in the dance party for sure!
Hahaha I’m glad you found it amusing.
I love spontaneous dance parties.
Beautiful dress, and OMG, Lexie? So cute!!!
Love the dress! I didn’t notice the closet cuz I couldn’t take my eyes off those mile-long legs. Rawwwr
I’m glad you enjoyed the shiraz, even if you enjoyed it a wee bit too much …
Happens to the best of us
ooh sexy dress! hahaha i haven’t had jello shots since like 2007 that is awesome! i’ve had a bunch of different types of wine but not shiraz yet, need to change that asap!
LOL those are actually not Jell-O shots. One is a shot of whiskey (forget the brand) and the other is pickle juice.
LOVE that dress. Rue la la and Haute look are so addicting I always find the best stuff!
That dress looks incredible!! You are totally rocking it and the blue looks awesome on you.
