While perusing People’s website this morning, I just happened to stumble across the fact that ABC finally released this season’s Bachelor… Mr. Jake Pavelka. A bunch of us girls practically fell in love with him last season on Jillian’s crazy season, and we were determined he would come back.. right we were!!! So many single […]

No one did… as much as I hate that song, I was so happy this past weekend when my beloved VOLS not only whipped up on the ‘Dawgs, we destroyed them. GA fans bark at you when you lose, and they’re mean {let me rephrase that, some of them are mean} but when they visited Knoxville last […]

having recently become a huge fan of etsy, i thought i would devote a post to all things i have discovered from this fantastic site… created as a way for people to showcase their handmade items, crafts, and all things personal, i think it’s a great way to help out friends and others’ small businesses and snag […]

Another Hump Day here which means another installment of Wishful Wednesday brought to you by Kelsey ‘I wish’ …. I could change one physical trait about myself and that would be to have muscular, yet skinny legs!! I am constantly at the YMCA working out–I get up at the crack of dawn everyday throughout the […]

to put it mildly, i am obsessed with UT football… not the kind of fan who simply cheers for the team when they’re doing well and is all about an SEC Championship team, but i’m the person who loves them win OR lose–for this season, we’ll point the fingers to the L side a bit–but we’ve […]

the day has finally come and gone… this past friday was our engagement party for my best friend and her groom-to-be! two of the other bridesmaids and i threw a “mexican and margaritas” themed party for the two lovebirds because more than anything, they love mexican!! {trust me on this one} we held the fiesta […]

I can’t believe fall is finally here… I know I am a little late jumping on the bandwagon since the season officially changed last week, but today is the first day I’ve experienced so far this season where it truly feels like fall. The leaves are changing colors, there is a brisk chill in the air […]

today marked my very first post on my very new blog!! what’s been a big work-in-progress for me over the past month or so has finally taken on a life of it’s own… i never knew that starting a side business was so time consuming so kudos to my blogging friends who have ventured out before me to try something […]
