My old blue jeans

Doesn't everyone have that one pair of jeans that are worn in, comfy, and totally made for you. I know my pair of Silver Jeans is that pair for me. Usually during the summer I swear off jeans (cardinal rule of fashion, show off your legs while you can), but lately I have found the silvers bring a certain sense of comfort in my life. Now that school has started back and a lot of things have changed. I am living somewhere new, new schedule, the bf has moved, so a comfy v-neck tee and the jeans bring a little bit of comfort and home into my new favorite comfort, and hey it is better then replacing it with food!
You all know how much I enjoy music, especially country, my new favorite is the David Nail tune, "Turning Home" love it!! If you haven't heard it, listen to it here!
Well I'm off to find the jeans and tee and then the usual homework!!!

quick post

so school is back in session for me as of today... as most of you know I have started my adventure in apartment life. I can't wait to post pictures since I have been sharing all my adventures in shopping around for the space this summer. Last night MB had an adventure with pizza. We definitely had no pizza cutter or pan, so we put the pizza on the rack and made the best effort to tear it apart evenly. It was quite hilarious!!! Other then that, I am getting back into the swing of life and classes.. blah!

One update I did want to post was about my best friend's mother I was recently telling you all about. Her surgery went really well and it turned out what they took out from her lung was scar tissue and she is CANCER FREE!!!! So that is wonderful to hear.

Well I am off to class again, I am going to try to be a more faithful blogger.....

Oh summer, why must you fly by so quickly???!!!








WOW!!! It has been so long since I have blogged and wow do I have so much to share. First off, last weekend after finishing my English class, the bf and his family were sweet enough to steal me away to Hilton Head for a couple days. It was such a wonderful trip. Here are a few photos from the trip....




So, in light of all the great news I have to share, there is a little bit of sad too. Suzanne aka the bestie, who is on the right, and her Mother DC in the middle all shared a recent trip to St. George Island. Over the last 3 and a half years her mom has had two bouts with Cancer. DC is such a fighter and an inspiration to us all, she is a great mother, friend, and mentor. This past week we received the news that her Cancer has returned... However we are all praying and she will fight through AGAIN! So, please be a prayer warrior for this family.. and I will be sure to update you on progress.
My final excitement is directed at the TV world. If you don't know it already, I am obsessed with Bravo... this week Rachel Zoe is back along with the premiere of the Real Housewives of D.C. I am an avid Real Housewives fan, but not sure how I feel about D.C. I would love to hear your thoughts. Also, love Rachel Zoe as usual, I am definitely Team Brad!!! The whole Taylor this was so ridiculous and I am frankly glad she is gone, so I am interested to see where this season goes...
Hope everyone is having a great week!
