Party like its 1982

Oh heyyy. I'm so excited for everything this weekend has to offer...

Tonight, we are taking it back to the 80's for my friend's big 3-0! We're going to be hanging on a party bus throughout Tampa tonight with a bunch of friends. I hope people not with us get that we're dressed for a party and not necessarily insane (though the 80's look is back...sorta) with crazy ass hair.
Tomorrow, we're attending a BBQ to celebrate the same birthday girl again; and where I'll get to swoon over her baby (last year we threw her the best baby shower, ever, but I digress). I have some terrible baby fever, going on.
Baby H makes me want to have my own baby. For real.

Sunday, we'll be at my parents house to celebrate my sister's 25th birthday (I should have titled this post, "All about Birthdays", huh?) and hang with the fam.

And by Monday, I hope to sit on my bum a bit and maybe see a flick or two

What's up for your weekend? I hope its a long one!

XOXO,
Nichole

Scenes from the weekend

What.a.weekend. We were very busy but it was a great time. I didn't take as many photos as I would have liked (seriously bad blogger, here) but I guess that just means I was busy livin' it up?

Friday, hubs and I joined his co-workers out at Bahama Breeze for happy hour. But I had an ulterior motive, kids. I wanted us to have some end of the week drinks to celebrate Jason getting accepted...into LAW SCHOOL. Remember when I told you guys right before our one year wedding anniversary how Jason told me some news that I couldn't share yet (side note: do you know people actually asked me if we were pregnant? I mean did I not say J was the one who told me news?! Oy), well he was accepted into three law schools within Florida, ya'll. There is more to this story but I feel like it deserves its own post another day. But in a nutshell; we have a lot of decisions to make in a very short amount of time!

Saturday, we ended up at Tropicana Field to see The Rays kick some Atlanta Braves ass (though we lost the series so what do I know?). Seven of us busted out the tent, grill, cooler and ladderball a few hours prior to the game in the heat to tailgate. And my friend, Shelly, conveniently had these mustaches just lying around in her car. That's just how she rolls.

Hawt





Sunday was spent brunching with Kari & Lauren at Datz Deli in South Tampa. I've been wanting to go there for quite sometime so I was excited to finally go. Plus is was brunch, which is my fave meal, around.

Last night, Lane and I (plus our very smart husbands) went to Eddie's in Dunedin for some live trivia and happy hour (gah, how I will miss random outings once I start working again). Folks, we came in 3rd place! We won $10 house cash. Honestly though if it weren't for our men, we wouldn't have won. Lane and I were enjoying the two for ones and chatting more than the trivia :)
Don't spend that all in one place, kids

Mush on mah mind {Monday Mashup}

As much as my husband loves me, the fact that I always have *something* to talk about because I have a gazillion random thoughts swimming through my head (at any one given time) doesn't exactly float his boat. That's why I am digging this link up courtesy of Mrs. Monologues: Monday Mashup.


And so, let the random thoughts commence...


On TV:

So thanks to my ongoing unemployment, the tv and I have had quite the relationship. Look, I'm not proud of it, ya'll but the fact remains I have watched a lot of the boob tube.

Let's talk season finales, first. Smash gave me the chills like no other. Good God is that show so good or what?! I felt so bad that Karen found out about Dev and Ivy, though.

Private Practice: SAM PROPOSES? Mason calls Charlotte "momma" and Amelia has her brainless baby? Oh yes, tear city at my place. Again.

And Grey's Anatomy: Was I the only one blindsided by Lexi DYING?! I was in complete shock, people. And the fact that the rest of the peeps were still stranded at the end of the season....?!
R.I.P., Lex
New (to me) shows: Since I have a lot of free time (obviously) I have been watching a lot of shows on Netflix that I had never seen before. I always meant to but never got around to them.

Jason & I just finished season 1. Holy Hell! And I freakin' knew  Peggy was preggo; with that jerk, Pete Campbell's, baby. I wonder what the heck is going to happen, next! GAH...

...and I just started watching
I'm only three or so episodes in, but it is such a good show. Oh mah gawd. Though, I LOL'd at the fact that Nancy's dead husband is Jeffrey Dean Morgan (you know, from Grey's. That guy can't catch a break!). I can't wait to watch more...

This upcoming weekend:
I still need to find my totally rad 80's costume for this weekend's party! I've shopped & shopped and let me tell you as much neon ish is there (now) is out there, I still haven't found my perfect outfit. I have some time, still...right?

On my doggy dog:
How could you not love her face?! Little Miss knows she isn't allowed on our bed but she climed up anyway and fell alseep (leaving me to look for her) and when I finally found her, I couldn't even be upset.

Somebody's been sleeping in my bed
