Miscellany Monday

Oh Monday...
Today I woke up feeling like I was ran over by a Mack truck.
But alas, I took some Claritin D and ran out the door.

Our mid-week was a little crazy, because we had a half snow day!
My office closed down at noon, and I made the trek home.
It only took me a little over an hour (it is usually a 35 minute commute).
We got tons of snow in a matter of a couple hours.
I'm thankful we didn't get as much ice as they were predicting.
I'll take snow over ice any day.

Did y'all have a great weekend?
Ours was really busy.


Friday night, we went out for a spontaneous movie night.

I was on the fence about this movie...I'm not really into dark/scary movies at all.
Of course, I would not say that it's a "wholesome" movie, but it was better than I expected it to be.

Saturday mid-morning, we left for a quick trip to Dallas.
Tyler's company was having a Year End Party and paid for us to go!
It was actually kinda nice...

We stayed at the Gaylord Texan.

It was such a fun hotel!

About 8 years ago, my family went to Nashville for the Supernationals Chess Tournament, which was held at the Gaylord Opryland.

Don't laugh...one, if not both of my brothers came home with a trophy.

Anyway, the Opryland hotel was amazing...

And they say, "Everything is bigger in Texas."  

This time I have to disagree.

The Opryland hotel is way bigger than the Texan.

But both have an amazing atmosphere.

It was fun to get dressed up for a night.

My handsome date really knows how to look good!!

Oh, and the food was really good.

We got back Sunday around 1 pm.

So I had plenty of time to catch up on stuff around the house.

Except...I didn't.

I was so tired, I felt like a zombie and didn't do much at all.

We did, however, get our taxes done.

I hate taxes (says the girl with the accounting degree).

Okay...

Here's some other random things that I'm super excited about:

Have you heard of the Hope Spoken Conference?

It's going to be in Dallas next March.

I'm secretly hoping that I can attend since so many of my instagram friends will be there.

I would just LOVE to meet them all.

For more information, you can check out this website.

If you are planning to attend, leave me a comment and let me know!! :)

See that pink-ish button up there that says, "A Simple Kind of Love?"

That is my very first blog advertisement!!!

You can check it out here in person.

I am praying that God will open some doors through this,

and that I can use my shop for His glory!

Oh, and did you hear?

I updated my shop on Friday!

Check it out!!

I hope ya'll have a wonderful week!

Linking up with Carissa today!
