Things That Make Me Happy – 17

Happy Thursday! Welcome to this month’s “Things That Are Making Me Happy”!

  • Gals dinner at Pineapples and Pearls 
  • I love this idea of a Puppy Party!
  • Catching up with friends (and sistahs) from my college days! 
  • Lots and lots of family time. We are so fortunate to have so many guests coming to see us this summer! This week Aunt Christy (Tommy’s eldest sister visited us from Sunday through yesterday morning and my dad, his wife Efa, and their son, Remy also came in on Sunday and leave Friday for Texas). Needless to say, Ava has LOVED all of the commotion, cuddles, and giggles at our house.
  • During-the-Week Pedicures 
  • I’m getting pretty excited about the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale that opens to the general public on Friday. I’m a lot more “strategic” this year on things I’m considering buying – I created a Pinterest Board to keep me focused!

Here are some past “Things That Make Me Happy” posts if you would like to see – here, here, here, here, and here.

Tuesday Tidbits – 251

Happy Tuesday ya’ll!

  1. Kind of sad, not gonna lie. I remember when there were a ton of cheap HHs (happy hours) in the city.
  2. I had a work retreat at Kent Manor Inn on the Eastern Shore last week. 
  3. Listen to your Graduation Playlist. (The biggest hits from the year you graduated).
  4. I’m starting to think of things to pack in my Hospital Go Bag for Luke. Any suggestions?
  5. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens to the general public this Friday – this is one of the items I’m eyeing.

Hope you have a great day!

My Thoughts on The Wing

Happy Friday!
I’m in Tucson, but will be traveling back home later this afternoon. Can’t wait to see my little family, that is for sure. 🙂

Today, I wanted to share my personal thoughts about “The Wing” – a members-only association for women that began in New York City and has since spread to other U.S. cities, including Washington, D.C., that I recently joined. [Read more…]

MV Big Flea

Ever since I moved back to Del Ray (almost 3 years ago), I have always wanted to go to the MV Big Flea that occurs annually this time of year. The MV Big Flea is a large fundraiser that benefits the Mount Vernon Community School PTA, in Del Ray, Virginia. However, up until this year I have been either busy or out of town. [Read more…]
