Friday Favorites

Now that the holidays are over, I'm back to playing the Lumineers' on repeat and I've ceased eating my weight in Christmas cookies. I also got a head start on my resolutions by eating healthy and working out this week, and I can already feel the difference. The downside is that I currently cannot climb up our 15 steps to go to bed, so... yeah, it looks like a slow weekend for us! I'm also getting older next week so that's my other excuse.

Linking up again with Christina, Liz, Darci, and Natasha for the first 2014 edition of Five on Friday!

Countdown to Europe!

We can finally say we're going to Europe this year! Approximately 10 weeks to be exact... not that I'm counting or anything.  Is it weird that I already started a packing list? We still need some travel adapters and such but our passports are ready to go! If any of you have been to Italy or Paris and have suggestions for life-saving travel items or accessories to pack, I'm all ears. Ready, go!

New camera goodies.

Compact Camera Case. Tripod. Remote. Memory Card. Memory Card Case.

My mom and sister-in-law hooked me up with all of these camera goodies for Christmas, I'm so excited to put them to use! I also got the Gorilla tripod, which is awesome by the way, so I'll bring that to Europe with us to save space and avoid the awkward selfies we always take (and fail at). If you're in the market for any DSLR accessories, I definitely recommend all of these!

Target After Christmas Sales.

Remember when I said I was going to stop going to Target so much? Well technically it was still 2013... Everything was 70 percent off,  you know I couldn't pass that up. I scored some gold dot martini glasses ($1.50 each!), the Cheers Highball glass and Gold shaker seen here, and washi tape and glitter ribbon for under a buck. I also picked up two 50-count ornament sets for $4.50 each. Now the hubs will have to let me decorate a live tree next year too, right?! Did anyone else pick up some great deals?

Reflecting on 2013.

2013 was a big year for us. We got hitched, moved to Charleston, and traveled a lot to see friends and family. I also started this little blog! Major thanks to all of you for following along, even when my photos were terrible and I didn't know what I was doing! Who am I kidding, I still don't! I feel so lucky to have a creative outlet like this, which is totally different than my 9 to 5, and you have all been so incredibly supportive! {Insert virtual hug here}

And finally, a weekend with nothing to do and no where to go.

Hallelujah. Anyone else with me?!

I hope you all have a great weekend!
