High Five for FRIDAY

Seriously, it's already Friday?! Does it feel like Friday to anyone else?
Ahhhh, the week after Christmas, such a lazy time of the year.
And now we have another long weekend to ring in the NEW YEAR!!

Linking up with Lauren for High Five for Friday....

H54F



1// In my opinion, this is the time of the year for shoe shopping!! Clearance items are everywhere ranging from winter to summer styles. Hells to the yes.

2// For those who may not know...this is how you access an attic in a home built before the 80's! And that's where the Christmas stuff is going ASAP! I love the decor and Christmas Spirit but we need our "spaces" back.

3// My Christmas Spirit rose up a notch or 500 when I got this Dooney and Burke bag from Santa :)
Love the combo of camel and black. Well done Santa, well done.

4// A trip to Whole Food Living! I love changing it up and even got the hubby to join me on this grocery shopping trip. What?! A husband goes grocery shopping with wife?!! Amazing. I might have even convinced him to meet me there for lunch...a glass of wine and a yummy cafe lunch... seems like a grand idea.

5// Happy New Year to all of you!!! This pic is from last year but tonight we squared away our sitter and started discussing plans. Hubby and I really love this holiday. I would almost say this and the 4th of July are our favorites. We're looking forward to dining out and ringing in the New Year sans kiddos!



Take a moment to reflect on the big and small things that make your week more beautiful.

  1. I too, can't wait to do some clearance shopping! We grew up with that kind of attic access too. I used to love opening it up and climbing up and down the ladder!

  3. Hi Kristine! I totally agree that having your space back after Christmas is a fantastic feeling. My weekend agenda includes the same thing.

    1. Yay! Glad I'm not alone in this! I almost felt bad saying this b/c so many leave the decor up for 12 days after Christmas!!

  4. I had to walk by DSW yesterday. It was the hardest thing to do. I had already spent too much money at that point. :(
