Five on Friday

1. Monday I watched the Sacramento Kings win over the Mavericks.

 

 

 

2. Then on Wednesday, I sadly watched the Kings get crushed by Utah Jazz. Boo! But at least it's good seats.

 

3. I indulged in some Urban Fries from Jack's Urban Eats. They are so good and addictive! It's fries covered in blue cheese, chili flakes and of course topped off with steak.

 

4. On Black Friday I took advantage of the Alex and Ani 15% off and free shipping deal an got myself this beauty. It's my motto!

 

5. Enter my giveaway! You could win an Amazon gift card!

Weekend Review

I hope everyone is having a great Labor Day weekend! The end of summer is sadly here. I feel like it went by so fast. Faster than normal. This past weekend, I was greeted with a nice California sunset from my front door.

Over the weekend, I hosted a baby shower for a co-worker and spent tons of time prepping for it. I swear baby showers are stressful and expensive (more details coming soon).



I indulged in my new addiction to Alex and Ani bracelets...

And these boots... Thank you DSW for having them on massive clearance. I'm talking 120 dollars down to 73 and then another 70% off. Um yeah... they were basically a steal. Plus they fit my big, fat calves muscular legs.

Now to survive the rest of the work week. Ugh...

I finally got my hair cut!

After/Before

Clearly I had it colored and layered. I love how it turned out! I am so glad I finally found someone in Sacramento who I can trust to do my hair. If you ever need someone good, check out the Amithyst Boutique Salon. I worked with Amithyst herself who is amazing and so was Kurtis. I will definitely be going back to see her!

I also spent the weekend indulging in some of my favorite things. I went to one of my favorite food places... In-N-Out.

In case you wonder what I get, I usually go with a cheeseburger, fries and sometimes a chocolate or vanilla shake. Pure heaven.

I also worked on my quest for the white bedroom. Since I've added it to my list of 30 Before 30, I really need to make it happen. This weekend, I was able to get the other two of my map prints up. Thank you Map My State! If you want your own map use my code CrazyShenanigans for 20% off your purchase! It ends soon so don't miss out! You can get can an 8x10 print including shipping for like 15.00 dollars. Here's what my prints look like...

I chose California, West Virginia and Alabama because they are all places that I've resided in. I think they look great on that wall.

I also bought a new Alex and Ani bracelet. What can I say? I'm obsessed. PLEASE someone buy me all the ones on my wish list for Christmas and every holiday till the end of time.

The new charm is the Gemini zodiac sign. LOVE it!

 

Hope everyone had a great weekend!

 





Weekend Review

I stared out last week with Jury Duty.

I had to report to the courthouse my first day and I was actually kind of excited. I was hoping for a long trial that would get me out of my daily grind. I ended up on a criminal trial but at the end of the second day, I got excused (probably because of my job haha). I did get to witness this guy protesting his right of being innocent (not the best way to stay out of jail dude)...

I did a lot of crafting over my weekend. I had seen this really cute sign and knew that I wanted to create something similar but for the holidays (cause we all know that's my favorite time of the year). Here's how mine turned out...

I was really pleased with how it turned out! It took some time to make but I can use it year after year since the circle is made of black chalk paint. I also made a craft for my friend's baby shower that I'm co-hosting. Her only request for the entire shower is that it be Pink/White themed since it's a girl. Here's how it turned out...



I also got my first two Alex and Ani bracelets over the weekend...

I got the San Francisco and Frasier Fir charms. Growing up and even to this day my family has always had a Frasier Fir tree at Christmas. I hope to keep the tradition going as long as I can. Do you have any Alex and Ani bracelets?
