Happy Monday party peeples! How about some randomness to start the week?!
My morning started off bright and early. The teenager needed to get to school early to re-take a test and while I’m glad they get the opportunity to try again when they get a crappy grade, geez oh man is it inconvenient. We all had to get out of the house 30 min earlier! I know it doesn’t sound like much, but this girl likes her sleep. 😛
I made the most of it though. I drank my iced latte and had a nice little chat with the 6th grader while we waited for school to start, got two loads of laundry done and made myself a yummy hot breakfast all before 10am! Woot! I’ll take that for a Monday!

Over the weekend we spent several hours working on a poster board for the 11yo’s health class. He did all the planning and artwork, I just helped with the execution. He’s so proud of his work. He kept saying how awesome it was. My kid is super humble obviously. lol.
Speaking of my youngest, it’s only 11 days until Halloween (holy crap, 11 days!!) and while his costume came in the mail on Thursday, he just tried it on last night and…it’s too small! Wahhhhh! Thankfully they had the larger size in stock so I ordered it and it should arrive on Friday. I’m crossing my fingers that it fits okay. The teen though…ugh…she wants to be Princess Leia. I’m not sure if you’ve looked for that costume before, but the options SUCK so even though I haven’t sewn since HS, we’re going to try and make it. *start stressing in 3..2..1* Wish us luck!

On Friday I posted about my evening wedding attire shopping and promised the finished look. Even though we were rushed, I had the teen snapped a few shots.
I went simple with my accessories. Just a blinged out bracelet, drop earrings and an envelope clutch. In a perfect world, I would have worn sleek pumps instead of the wedges, but I am not spending any more than necessary right now so I had to work with what I had in my closet already. My black Louboutins were my first choice, but I thought the nude color looked better.

And, because it’s Monday and you might need a little pick me up. Check out Gwen Stefani’s new song! She never disappoints!
You definitely know how to pull off a jumpsuit. Love it! And those shoes. Ugh, get in my closet. I’m a sucker for a platform wedge.
Thanks, Erin! I have such an obsession with jumpsuits, but I definitely have to try on a lot of “no’s” before I find one that fits right. And, yes, these wedges are one of my favorites! They make me freaky tall. lol.
