Let's Catch Up!

I am the worst blogger lately! I have just been too busy to sit down & blog!!

But let's catch up, shall we?

First things first... My heart is breaking for my KY BBall boys! I'm still sad, 2 days later, we didn't win. BUT! I am so incredibly proud of these boys & all they've accomplished this season. It was a great season... They all grew as a team & I just want to give Coach Cal a big ole smooch for getting this program back to where it should be! It's tradition & Cal gets it!!

In honor of the game & my friend's birthday on Saturday night, yours truly hosted a little partay! There was yummy food, blue & white decor absolutely everywhere, & of course a few drinky poos! Because I've never truly had a very college-y house party, I made blue jello shots for the occasion!

Go Cats!!

The boo & his bro got their JORTS on!!

Again, I am so sad we lost, but so proud of how far the Cats have come!! Even Jay-Z was impressed after we beat UNC!!


Love him... He's so Fuh-LyyY!
But have you heard? He's evidently getting fined for being there! Because he owns the Nets, he was accused of recruiting the not-yet-draft-eligible kiddos. Psh... Like Jay Z is going to take time out of his ballin' schedule to actually go recruit.
& let's all just take note of how lucky these boys are to have this picture. Get it framed asap boys!

This week is going to be a busy one, so let me just apologize in advance for when I go bloggy MIA. My mom is getting married THIS Saturday!! Those of us in the family who are actually still left in Lex & nearby (my sister & I) are loading up the car & heading down to Eastern KY on Thursday for the event!! I will be sure to take many pics & do a follow-up post when I return!

But for now, I'm off to worky!
XOXO!!

March Madness!

I am a horrible blogger for being MIA for so long! It's all this pretty weather we've been having lately... I get spring fever in the worst way!

I really have been pretty busy... My mom & sister have been in town & have been staying at MY house for the past week-ish! My sister goes to school in Berea {& is actually already gone... She was on limited spring break time & had to go back last Thursday!} & my mom has been bouncing back & forth between Eastern KY {with my grandpa} & Illinois {with her fiance!} Lexington used to be home base for everyone... We were pretty much all here, but now it's just me! Needless to say I've been busy being the hostess with the mostest & lemme tell ya, it's a full time job.

Just wanted to pop in & let everyone know I'm still alive & kickin' & planning a catch-up post very soon! I love springtime & I feel like I get super-busy in the spring... Or maybe I make myself busy because the pretty weather motivates me to get out & go?! I haaate, hate, hate winter & I never want to leave the house during winter so the refreshing sun & warm temperatures gets this tushy off the couch without fail!

Before I go, let's all have a rousing chant together, shall we?

Ohhhhh C-A-T-S! CATS CATS CATS!!!!

{I know my KY girls can relate}

That's right bb's we're headed to the Sa-weeeet 16 & I couldn't be prouder!!
Although I will say this is about the time of year those KY boys send my heart to near destruction! I am way too obsessed with KY Basketball & the thought of us coming close to losing, ever, makes me so anxious!
I love college basketball & March Madness is neck & neck with Christmastime for my favorite season. Come on... College ball all day/every day PLUS the weather starts getting nice?! How can you not love it?!

That's all I have time for at the moment.... But you better believe I've been Listing it up with ideas for future blog topics. All to be tackled very soon!
XOXO & GO CATS!!

Listing & Lusting!

With Spring on it's way (yes, I am staying positive & doing every no-snow dance I know!) yours truly has been shopping for fun things to make spring even better! Because I'm a massive nerd I tend to make lists. My number one list happens to be a To-Do List, but the 'Things I Must Have' List is a close second & happens to be never ending. Here are a couple of my recent items :)

How sweet are these?! I'm obsessed!!

Let me just say, I LOVE shoes. I quite possibly am a shoe hoarder. What a tacky nick-nack is to a hoarder, a shoe is to me. I can't help it, I see a pair (or two or three!) fall in love, & have to have them. There have been times I blatantly chose a pair of shoes over other obligations... Like bills, gas for the car, food, etc. Irresponsible as it is, I can't help myself. I have a problem!
& let me just be completely honest here... Shoes always fit. No matter what size I am everywhere else, my shoe size stays predictably the same... I. Love. It. Subsequently, there is a massive overflow of shoes in my closet. Well, most of them still fit in there! I think I own more shoes than anything else, actually.

I went to Vegas this past summer & this was my 'Definitely Going to Vegas' pile.
[There are 13 pairs in this pic... For 4 days & 4 nights, just so we're all on the same page.]
(Sorry for poor pic quality.. That was before the iPhone entered my life!)

Problem? Some think so, but I just cannot help myself! I sent the pic to my boo, who was living & waiting for me in Vegas at the time, & he helped me narrow the selection!

Alright, back to my List!

I'm thinking these would be kind of perfect for Keeneland's Spring Meet!!

I also just looooove this!

Personally, I think this is seriously PRESH! If done the right way, it could also be perfect for Keeneland! This top just looks so fresh & lively to me. The exact opposite of ho hum winter-wear!

& as always
THIS sweet baby will always be on my List! Until I have one in my possession of course! I think that just about everyday I send a little style prayer in hopes that the price will drop momentarily so I can buy one! Or that one will just fall into my lap! ;)

& thanks to this stylish chica I've also been looking here for a few spring-y Keeneland options!

Oh Spring, how I love you & wish you would make an appearance in all our lives very soon!

Meanwhile, this is my current state:


:)
Being productive & I love it! Responding to e-mails that are in response to resumes I've sent out! Eee!
Also-- Please note the pink UK coffee cup I am sippin' from! Gotta` support my boys in blue!! They've got a big game tonight & I KNOW we can win it! Unfortunately we all have to look at Bruce Pearl the biggest tool of life in that hideously tacky TN orange blazer. Ick.

Have a great evening my loves! GO CATS!! XOXO <3!!>
