Packing Problems

I am off to see Justin tomorrow!

For those of you who don't know, my husband is at Basic Training in Fort Benning, GA.  This weekend is family weekend pass, and will be the first time I've seen him in 2 1/2 months!!

I can not tell you how EXCITED I am! 

These last few weeks have been stressful and challenging. I have been trying to keep myself busy (hence the lack of blog posts) so I don't notice how much I miss Justin!

Let me tell you, PACKING for this trip was CHALLENGE!  

50 lbs limit per suitcase? Really? They can fit so much more than that! I hadn't even finished and it was already at 56.6 lbs!  There was nothing I wanted to take out. This was a big dilemma.  I started decreasing all my hair/cosmetic products and finally got it to 48.2.  PHEW!! 

Now you might be wondering what did a pack that was 48.2 lbs?!? Well let me tell you!

My wonderful cowboy boots that are a must to wear with cute sundresses!

Lots and lots of cute sun dresses and maxi dresses!

Of course I need shoes to go with the dresses!

So that is just an idea of SOME of the stuff I packed!  What items/trends are you craving to wear this spring/summer? Where are your favorite places to shop?

 I will try and remember to take pictures of all my outfits and post when I get back!

Wish me luck!

Goodbye Work, Hello Happy!

Yay, it's Friday again! I'm looking forward to another great weekend!

 So here are my fabulous weekend plans!

1. Pack more boxes for the move....  Ok, there is nothing fabulous about that part, but it has to be done. :(

2. Go see my wonderful esthetician for a Microdermabrasion facial!  Which I am so in need of after all this house buying stress!  It is amazing how relaxing a facial can be!  I LOVE the way my skin feels after these facials!  I have to try so hard not to touch it!

3. See Grease performed at the Miller Outdoor Theater with my girlfriends! You bring chairs, blankets, food, drinks and chill on this hill while singing along to the movie! Do you think I should dress the part?

 

Sing-A-Long Movies at Miller!

4. And back to packing on Sunday...blah! Ok, so my weekend will only be HALF fabulous!

What are your plans once you say goodbye to work?

Goodbye Work, Hello Happy!

  Yay! I'm happy because today is Friday and I have so many plans for this weekend!  

I have pedicure plans...

 

Drinks-with-the-girl's plans...

Fall Festival plans...

 If all goes well I will be moving into my new house in 3 weeks!  I need to get my tush moving!

What are your weekend plans? Are you planning a busy weekend or just hoping for some peace and quiet? Whatever your plans, I hope your weekend is a Happy One!
