Weekend Fun

My trip to Houston was a quick one.  My sister is the power shopper.  

We were able to take advantage of some more Black Friday deals.

Luckily, I was able to fit everything in my bag.  I left the suitcases I took in Texas. 

Saturday night I got to hang out with my nephew.  

It was my younger sister's 10 year high school reunion. 

We went over to J's house so the boys could play together.

He had a good time and was out like a light as soon as I put him to bed.

I always have so much fun with him.

Sunday was decorating day at Gpop's house.  I help him with the tree every year.

He will be 93 in December!  I lived with him for a few years while I was saving for my house.

He even got off the couch to help this year.  Most times he sits and tells me where to put the ornaments.

Even he was beginning to look a lot like Christmas.

This is one of my favorite ones.  It is so old but I just love it.

The plan was to come home and get my house done but that just didn't happen.  Oh well.  

Who else put off Christmas for just another day or two?

The Olympics opening ceremony is tomorrow.  I can't wait for the games - swimming events of course are my favorite.  The quote for the day seemed appropriate.  #findgreatness

Weekend Fun ~ CT edition

I spent the weekend with Vic, my twin, in Connecticut.  She was getting ready for a 3 week trip for work...to the Olympics!  Very cool and I will admit I am a little jealous. (just don't tell her I said that).  We did a lot of shopping, too much really. The picture below is in Stamford on our way to lunch.

This is just from day one of our shopping weekend extravaganza!  Oh boy was my bank account not happy with me...

Sunday we went to Greenwich.  It was a beautiful day to be outside rather then walking in a mall.  We did more shopping and eating. That was the theme for the weekend.  

My new obsession and favorite thing from the entire weekend - Pinkberry!  We had it twice in 4 days.  I would have went for a 3rd but Vic said no.  I'm rally bummed there is not once closer to home.  

So glad there was an easy way to get all my purchases + some stuff Vic wanted me to bring home for her.  Love the shopping carts in her building.  Smartest thing ever!

Finally got a good picture of us, and yes we are in the car. 

Thanks for a great weekend!

Enough

It's been a crazy week, most of it not good.  Do you ever have a week where you feel like all the gods are against you?  That was me this week and ironically, today, Friday, the 13th was the best day - go figure!  I found the saying below via {pinterest} and go back to it whenever I am down.   

You are enough.

Today, tomorrow, and every day thereafter.

You are perfectly adequate, without needing to change a single thing about yourself.

This doesn’t mean that you aren’t allowed to want to grow, evolve or improve.

It doesn’t mean you don’t have flaws.

It means you are worthy of love.

It means that you deserve to love yourself in spite of your imperfections. 

No matter who you are, where you’re from, or what you have been through, you are deserving of love. 

Be kind to yourself.

You are only human. 

Forgive and let live. 

Let in the love.

Hope the weekend brings more smiles!

Heading to the beach for the weekend and this is so appropriate for my life right now.

This is by far my most repinned item from my {words to remember} board with over 1600!  

That makes me smile.  This is very good advice...
