Raise your hand if you've only bought one Christmas gift!

via
Guilty. Sweet Geezus!  What am I doing with my life?  Not Christmas shopping apparently.  I know that much.

Actually, I know exactly what I've been doing. See below.

I've been at a panty party getting tore up from the floor up.

I've been having cell phone photo shoots before said panty party:
Pretty sure this isn't normal. 
I've been trying to finish up decorating my room before the New Year, so I painted this espresso mirror white on Sunday:
To hang above my bed. Please excuse the messiness. I should have at least made my bed for y'all.  How ruuuude! (said in Stephanie Tanner voice)
If you look closely, you'll see my left night stand still needs to be painted white.  Shameful. 
This lamp shade on my right nightstand is new.  Only $7 from Target!
I still am in love with monogrammed La Plate that I got last Christmas.  Normally a catch all for my remotes.
I've been cheering on my handsome nephew at his school Christmas play this week:
Obviously they had Reese front and center.  Would you expect anything less?
My favorite thing about this annual show (other than Reese performing, of course) is the opening act when they wheel all the babies out in strollers for the song Jingle Bells.  Melt my freaking heart why don't you??  And no, I don't know any of these children but I sure did snap their picture any way.
I asked my brother, "Is it creepy that I'm taking pics of children that aren't mine."  Brother: "Very."
I made my very first baked brie w/ raspberries courtesy of this recipe from my home slice Katie from Keep Calm and Carry On.  I'm still not sure how I feel about brie because I forgot to cut the rind off of the cheese so I was sketched out by it.  Nonetheless, here are pictures from my culinary creation:


And that just about covers it.  Throw in a hangover, a boot camp sesh or two, a dash of my DVR and you know exactly what I've been doing other than playing Santa.  This weekend you know where to find me ... I'll be out shopping.

p.s. If you fancy girly girl goods, then go to Chelsea's blog to enter Day 3 of our 12 Days of Giveaways!

p.p.s. Don't forget that tomorrow is my bestie Beth from Sweet Bef's giveaway for Day 4!  If what she sent me for Christmas is any indication of her gift giving skills, then I think you know you're in good hands.  You're going to love what she'll have up for grabs.
Is that glass not perfection? I love it.  And the glitter ornament obvs already has a home on the ole' tree.

  2. Thanks for the shout out you blonde bombshell you. Your hair is looking extra fab in those pics! and I must say, that brie has me wanting to make it again. You should always try things more than once esp. when it comes to food ;) a great motto, right?!

  4. lol hubs and I made that exact same brie thingy on the traeger! (and dont you dare ask me what it is) it was DIVINE.

    ok, so the pic with the panties on your head. So something I would do and I bet the other people in the restaurant totally thought you guys were complete crazies which they would be correct.

    um, Reese is adorable. Gunner's little Christmas thing is tomorrow and LOVE that you snapped pictures of those babies hahaha!!!

    LOVe the mirror and you took those picture for ME, remember? yeah, me.

  13. Baked brie is my FAVE. Well, any kind of brie, really.

    And um. Only bought ONE gift? Dear lord. I'm done ... did 100% online this year. Loved it. The door bell rings every day and wakes Eva from her nap, but that's much better than dealing w/ the crazies.

    Love the panty party pix!

  14. OMG, that pup picture is hilarious! And I haven't started shopping yet either, but mostly because i'm really lazy, LOL.

  15. I had a really good comment in my head, then I started reading the other comments and realized that I didn't get my cats a present. Which is bull. And now I'm more focused on that. But anyway, that puppy is adorable. I want one. And it's not creepy to take pictures of random kids. Unless you set it as your phone background. ;)
