ONFinally FRIDAY!

I can do whatever I want for the next two days.  And so can you.

As long as we stay home.

To celebrate the end of the week, I’m going to begin by naming five of my favorites.

Last week, LB and I joined my family on a trip to Orlando to celebrate my sister’s birthday.  I published a blog post about that later than I meant to, but you can read it here.  We shopped all afternoon at Disney Springs and one of my favorite stores there is COACH.  It was there that I found my

Favorite # ONE

This Coach Handbag

It is a little handbag, crossbody bag, and backpack.Don’t let me loose in a COACH shoppe.

I won’t leave without something cute!

Favorite # TWO

On Tuesday, LB and I took a ride to COSTCO to pick up his new glasses.

While we were there, I was browsing through the books for sale and found this…I remember listening to my 2nd grade teacher, Mrs. McKean as she read this to our class.

I was ALL IN!

Chapter 1. Before Breakfast

“Where’s Papa going with that ax?” said Fern to her mother as they were setting the table for breakfast.  “Out to the hoghouse”, replied Mrs. Arable.  “Some pigs were born last night.”

I can’t wait to read it to Lydia!

That same Tuesday was National Banana Split Day.  So LB said, “Let’s go to Dreamette to celebrate.”

Favorite # THREE

 DREAMETTE

  I told him that I was counting calories and it would not be helpful if I consumed a banana split from Dreamette.  He assured me that we would stop by, purchase one item, have one bite, and throw the rest away…

Are You KIDDING ME???

It was incredibly delicious!

Although it was delicious and obviously we were unable stop ourselves from devouring the entire 12 ounce cup… I was a little disappointed in the presentation.

After all this is what I expected…

 

I am pretty sure I can do better…

Favorite # FOUR

Welcome!


I’m Kim… and I love Pretty clothes, Pretty décor, Pretty days, and Pretty much anything that involves family and fun.  Growing up, My Mama told me more than once “Pretty is as Pretty does” …encouraging me to focus on the inner pretty girl, as she is the one that matters most.

Here on my blog, I’m sharing what I see as pretty.  Whether it be an outfit, an experience, an event, a memory or thought.  Hopefully I’ll share something that will be interesting, useful, or make you smile along the way.
