miscellany monday

Link up here.

1. Relaxing nights like Friday night is what makes me love the weekend off with the hubs. :)


2. Speaking of that lovely husband of mine...y'all know this girl does not like waking up before 11 er...9:30am on the weekends.. This boy drags me out of bed to get to the farmers market on Saturday morning before all the good stuff gets gone! Don't get me wrong, I have been wanting to go all summer, just not THIS saturday THIS early! Anyway, it was quite the fun time we had that makes me want to go back EVERY weekend!  We loved going around looking at all the homemade goodies.  We bought some all natural honey made just down the street from our town.  We got a bunch of peaches, cause we are both loving some peaches right now.  And we also discovered this amaazzing bread lady.  Homemade bread + organic ingredients= heaven!  We also got some of her cinnamon rolls...I mean they are homemade and organic so they are healthy, right?! :)

3. After returning from the farmers market I got all prettied up and went to a graduation brunch for a sweet girl that we used to have in our small group at youth.  She is moving off to collage and her mother was so sweet to do this the week before she moves. It was so nice to be able to be a part of this brunch. We talked and talked and it was so neat to hear a group of women telling their college experience's and showing her the do's and don'ts of college life.  We prayed for her journey and hugged and wished her well.  Such a special experience so blessed to be a part of that.

4.  Wonderful Jamie, that hosts the What I'm Loving Wednesday link ups, is now hosting a giveaway! YaaY! I have the worlds worse luck, but I am going to try to win! :)

5.  I did get out and dally in the chaos of tax-free weekend.  I didn't end up buying much, but did find some good deals on some sandals and shirts for our trip!!!  Which brings me to...

6.  I will be taking a blog-cation as well as a vacation starting Thursday! :)  Don't miss me too much and I will be back with tons and tons a few pictures to share!

7.  Speaking of tax-free weekend, Victoria's Secret had a "secret" sale last night.  And my SIL accompanied me, we both bought bra's and got $35 off the total price! :)

8.  As I have mentioned, Ethan is hard at work finishing the re-staining of the coffee table, side table, and dresser. Can't wait to share the before and after of that...however, they probably wont be moved back in the house until Tuesday, so I may not get to that until we are back from vay-kay.

This weekend was nice, I think I liked knowing I only have to work 3 days this week helped! 

Happy Monday!!
