Life Lately

This last week Sterling had two of his 6 cavities filled.  As you know I was freaked out about this.  I was a complete nervous wreck the entire time but you know what it all turned out ok.  He had no reaction to the two medicines they gave him and he had no idea what he went thru.  He actually slept for most of the procedure.  He did end up having to get two silver fillings because the cavities had reached his nerves.  We have 4 more to fill- but at least next time I won't be as stressed out. All I can think about now is Little Wayne when I see his mouth:)  Bling Bling.

I received the most beautiful bracelet from Etkie.  If you are not familiar with this site you must check it out.  The jewelry is handmade by artisans in New Mexico and the detail is just amazing.  This would make a beautiful gift for someone.

I am wearing the Laura Cuff.

I took this picture of the kids Monday morning before school and it made me laugh- my sentiments about Monday too. 

Frances is wearing the Old Navy Poncho I mentioned last week.  Its so cute on and on sale!

I stopped in Forever 21 this week and found the most gorgeous cardigan.  It seriously looks so expensive in person, it kind of reminded me of Chanel and it is only $29!  I am wearing a size small.

Thursday night I hosted a dirty Santa Party.  It was such a fun idea and a tradition I hope to keep up every year.  No pictures of the gifts because some were too naughty to share but I will tell you we all got some good laughs out of the gifts!  

Setting up with some of my favorite wines from Wine Awesomeness and Cupcakes from Sugar always a good combo.

A few of the apps I made.

If you like champagne I highly recommend this kind from Wine Awesomeness.  It came in my box one month and now I just keep ordering it.  To get festive for the party I froze some cranberries to put in our champagne glasses.

Balance Champagne (and its onsale right now for $10!)

I wore my new French Connection Blouse paired with an old Banana Republic Necklace for the party.

Sterling and I made one of the Creature Feature Tee shirts by Neve Hawk and let me tell you it was so fun.  It comes with a pack of different eyes, mouths, and accessories that you can iron on your shirt.  Great for your kids imagination because they can design the face and tee shirt.  I will be buying these for gifts!

Had a blast playing with our Be Jolly Party Props from Hattan Home- all their Holiday Stuff is on sale right now!

Ended the weekend with my favorite Shrimp Nachos!  Recipe is under the recipes tab!

Have a great week.
