Yesterday, my presh mama took a day from work to spend with me! We went to Goodwill (one of our favorite stores) and Wilmington to Target and La Gemma bakery! Back when I had braces (yikes) and had to go to Wilmington to my orthodontist, we would always go to La Gemma afterwards and get a sweet treat! We hadn't been in a really long time, so it was nice to load up on some goodies and chow down! Let me tell you, there were some perfect sales yesterday, too! One of mine and mom's favorite words: 'sale.'
Fab finds:
We both got a pair of killer Mossimo Boyfriend skinny jeans! On sale for $14.99 from $29.99! I love some boyfriend jeans, they are so casual and lounge-y.
Bathing suit season is approaching fast! I bought this little number - buy one, get one 50% off at Target! About $30.00 all together. That was a splurge for me, but I thought it was a good excuse. I usually don't go for this color, but it was so cute on and I couldn't resist. It is exactly what I have been looking for. I can't wait to rock it on the beach!
This was one of my favorite finds of the day. It's a weekender duffle bag. The term "weekender" sounds so celebrity I'm Off To Bora Bora Be Back Next Week to me! It's the perfect size to pack a couple for outfits and visit home or a friend's house. The color is very neutral and the cross-body strap adds extra support! On sale from $29.99 to $14.99!
After we came back from Wilmington, we went straight to the new house lot with dad. We spent about an hour over there putting stakes in the ground to mark off where the house will go. I never realized how much work went into that whole process. I thought you just snapped your fingers and voilà a house! Kidding of course, but it's exciting to break ground and start to see progress being made.
Mom has been gradually gathering new decorations for the kitchen and her office. We found a really cool clock at Goodwill that will be perfect on a book shelf, six placemats in yellow and gray and a matching table runner in Target (all on sale), and a precious poster in Big Lots that will look so fresh in a distressed frame on the wall! I can't wait until the house is finished and it has all come together. I'll definitely be taking pictures and sharing!
I'm off to work in about an hour and I'm excited to be back behind the freezer scooping ice cream! I haven't in like 7 months, which seems crazy. My spring break has been pretty great so far. Like I have told you all before, I love spending time with my family. I miss my dad's corny jokes and talks with my mom when I'm away at school. It's nice to catch up on those! For those of you who have break next week, hang in there! Only two more class days to go!
Happy break!
You are just so cute. Your writing just makes me smile.
