{three things Thursday}

i was walking down my blog memory lane earlier this week and discovered an oldie, but a goodie! Do you remember {three things Thursday} and how i did it every stinking week? Well. I am brining it back this week.

{one} In 7 days, I will be in sunny Florida with my mom and dad. And, I have nothing planned but to read and maybe run and lay by the pool. I do need to finish the AWFUL book I have been reading for what seems like months now, but i cannot seem to pick it up and just read. but i am someone who finishes EVERY book I start. I want a real, true beach read and I have a zillion on my bookshelf to read!

{two} Despite going to Nordstrom on Monday and using a Visa gift card to buy a new pair of black Tory Burch Revas {they were basically free/paid for by my company thanks to credit card points}, I also bought a pair of tan ones on Tuesday thanks to that amazing ShopBop sale.  My obsession with all things Tory is a little out of control, but I do not care . And I spent all day yesterday telling kyle “shopbop.com. Tory Burch. 20% off. we are family. Christmas.” ...doubt he got the hint {fingers crossed he did}! Did any of y’all cash in on that Tory sale!?!

{three} i am currently in a torn state. I had planned on heading to Tuscaloosa for the Western Carolina game with my friend Afton and to stay with my friend heather. There is 50% of me that wants to go. it will be fun. a girls weekend. we all need one of those. and then 50% of me wants to stay in town/knows i need to stay in town and house hunt with the husband since our weekend looking time will be limited due to being in VA for Thanksgiving & Christmas. if you were in my shoes... what would you do?! Part of me says push it back till January. Find a house and THEN head to Tuscaloosa for a girls weekend. what would you do?!

1 more work day to the weekend. i think we can make it! And... for all my Tennessee friends – remember this?! Mt. Cody and the blocked field goal for the WIN! Cannot wait for this weekend’s game! Roll Tide!!

My Birthday Wish List

With my Birthday around the corner I am making my wish list of birthday present items. Granted, I am at the age where I don’t get gifts -  I just get money (which is greatly appreciated) to buy the things I want/stash away for a rainy day (where I end up at the mall).  But… in my perfect, I have lots of money world these are all the gifts Kyle would buy me to make it one super stellar birthday!

:: Tory Burch Reva Flats ::

Mine need to be retired STAT.  Like they have been sooo loved that the soles are being worn through.  I am pretty sure one foot there is no sole under my big toe.  And they’re really really scuffed up and pretty much need to be retired.  And I know the price tag on them are pretty high {I got mine on sale at Nordstrom's} so I feel like they’re a really good investment.  I wear them pretty much every chance I get.  But, I know I will be buying these for myself with my 10% off Bloomie’s coupon.  But at least I will get a new pair, sooner or later.  But, in case you’re wondering – I am a size 9.5.

:: Tory Burch Small Stud Logo Earrings ::

These pretties are actually not all that expensive.  So, I have asked Kyle for them for my birthday.  I am getting into the who accessorizing your outfit thing. And I feel like I need to add more earrings to my jewelry box.  But I only like the stud, post earrings and I have had my eyes on these babies for awhile now.  I feel like my 27th birthday is the most perfect time to add them to my jewelry collection. Plus, my love and obsession for all things Tory is a little outrageous currently and anything to feed my need and love for shiny fabulous things is a perfect gift in my book.  Note: I am actually getting these and I will sleep in them and love on them. They are so so so gorgeous! <3

:: The Mint ::

I will not rest until The Mint is in my possession.  But, I know Kyle will never buy gthis for me and he will never let me buy it so it is going to have to be a gift from someone.  Kyle feels like it is a total waste and that I can not be lazy and just sweep, but still.  Barbie wants a thing that will sweep for her when she is at work.  Is that too much to ask?!

:: This Bag!! ::

Legit.  I need this. Like I saw it when  picked up the pooches from daycare this past Sunday and I decided I really really needed it.  Kyle did not understand the need until today and then he too thought it was hilariously funny.  Plus, a girl can never have too many tote bags and this one is just funny.  Like tell me that you’re not singing the song in your head right now.  And plus, this bag could not be more true.  I have two big mutts and I love them and adore them.  And I know that I could find many many uses for this bag.  Example: I need a constant gym bag.  Another example: it can carry all our snacks and travel items for when we travel to Virginia.  This will for sure be on my Christmas list since I know Kyle has gotten me my birthday present already.

And with that…. that is my birthday wish list.  So in depth right?!
