Early birthday goodness

Today marks five days till my birthday! Yep, I'm a Christmas baby. Originally due Christmas Eve, I made my debut early. Probably the only time in my 24 years of life that I accomplished anything early. Anyways like most Christmas time babies, or maybe I'm speaking for myself here, I don't get near the presents..not like it matters, because everyone kinda bundles my birthday and Christmas in a package deal. Which my dad is a hardcore protester to that being that he's always made sure that he gives me two holidays like most. ;)

Anywho! I'm posting about my birthday early because today I recieved one of the best birthday presents ever...early! Maybe I'm too excited about it but it's definitely the perfect present for me.



The frame is espresso which matches pretty much all of my house. My sister got me this gem and as soon as she gave it to me this morning at work I wanted to rush home and hang it immediately. Unfortunately I'm going to have to wait another 6 hours to do so.

Happy early birthday to me!

Wednesday Christmas lovin!

Good morning my lovelies! I figured I would start this Wednesday out with a little bit of lovin'! What better way to do so than joining in with Jamie for...



With Christmas right around the corner I thought it would be best to incorporate my Christmas wish list!



The Nike Air Relentless. They're amazing. These are Relentless 2 but I currently have the original versions. I wear a size 8 just incase you come across a pair that you want to send my way ;)




I seriously want one of these sooo bad! Yeah...I'm lame.



I was the queen "hater" when it came to the twilight fad. Eventually some friends wanted me to see Breaking Dawn Part 1 so I went and caught up on the first three. Now I've seen part 2 and I'm seriously addicted. I feel the only way to lengthen my twilight obsession is to read the books now, being that the saga has come to an end :,(




A flower water gauge!! What? I haven't perfected my green thumb yet.



Because I have the first two so obviously I need the third...if I ever finish the second :-/



I use to have an iPod boombox...then I moved from my parents house and I just couldn't break my moms heart by takin it with me.



I need new light fixtures for my front porch seriously they're the old rusted brass..like these...



That's all for my Christmas list. Might I add that I'm also loving the fct that I've almost finished my Christmas project!



I'm going to attach them when I'm done and hang it on the wall:)

Happy Wednesday y'all!!

Thanksgiving contribution

Happy Thanksgiving my lovelies! I thought I would sneak a quick post in while drinking some coffee. I'm linking up with



The prompt I chose was Share a favorite Thanksgiving recipe. However since my mom is normally the chef for our feast and this year is the first year I'm contributing I'm going to share a recipe I got out of a Kraft magazine:

Bacon-Cheddar Corn Pudding
You need:
2 eggs, beaten
1-15oz can of cream corn
1-11oz can of corn with green and red bell peppers, drained
1- 8.5oz pkg of corn muffin mix
1/2 cup of Kraft Classic Ranch Dressing
1-8oz pkg of Kraft Cheddar cheese, divided
4 green onions sliced
2 slices of cooked bacon, crumbled.

Heat oven to 375°F

Mix first 5 ingredients until well blended. Stir in 1/2 cup of cheese.

Pour into a 2-quart casserole dish sprayed with cooking spray.

Bake 40 minutes. Meanwhile combine remaining cheese, bacon, and green onions.

Top casserole with cheese mixture and bake for an additional 15 minutes or until slightly browned.

------
I'm pretty excited to be contributing to the feast this year. All the past years I've lived with my parents so I've just assisted my mom in the kitchen. I am also bringing a strawberry cheesecake as well. I'll have to repost and let y'all know how the casserole and cheesecake turned out!

Weekend shenanigans




I am feeling this, no doubt. Last week was super long for me. Normally I work a half day or not at all for that matter on Fridays. Then my weekend starts with Saturday and Sunday off work. However this week I had to work Friday as well as Saturday. I'm not going to complain because I love the extra money and I got off at 12pm both days.

Saturday when I got off work I rushed home to take a nap. To those of you who have been around for awhile that comes as no surprise. However we were taking a road trip to Kyle's hometown and were due to be there by 5pm to attend a friends thanksgiving dinner party so I wanted to be well rested from my long week...and plus let's be real I love to sleep!

We had a good time at the party and stayed the night at my soon to be inlaws. Sunday morning we ate breakfast with them and hung around the house watching a couple of movies. Later we headed over to Nanny's, Kyle's grandparents, house and ate lunch with them and hung out.

Afterwards we went back to Kyle's parents to pick up our dogs and head home. We watched the first Twilight movie and also Accepted...which is one of my favorites for some unknown reason.

I guess you could say we had an eventful weekend but I'm somehow happy to starting the week. Maybe it's because thanksgiving is in a couple days, who knows. Last week was a long work week and this one is going to be super short! I get off at three pm Wednesday and don't return till the following Monday. I'll be happy to have a break though!

Christmas cheer v.1

Christmas cheer is almost here! Some may think I'm crazy but I already have my Christmas tree assembled and decorated! I still have a few knick knacks here and there that need to be placed but overall my Christmas decorating is almos complete!

Welcome to the Webb Family's first Christmas in our new house!



Not the best picture but I'll post a better one when I have everything finished ;)



My new Scentsy warmer that I am IN LOVE with! My current scent is Silver Bells, which is one of the holiday specials.




Who doesn't love a bottle of wine especially when it's wearing a Santa outfit!?

I have a lot more stuff that I need to take pictures of. My camera skills were lacking on the day I put everything up so there'll be plenty more to come!




My baby boy was obviously exhausted from helping momma decorate.



As for miss Sophie, she wanted no part in it and was completely confused.

I'm really looking forward to next week being filled with family! Oh and seeing all the holiday filled posts!

Birthday goodies

Yesterday I unexpectedly got off work early. I went home and cleaned the entire house, finished laundry, played with the babes, and baked my birthday boy a cake and some muffins.



I won't lie I was pretty proud of myself when it came to the cake. It was the first cake I'd ever made and it turned out fabulous!



Funfetti of course! Kyle thought it was pretty good as well. I gathered the dogs and we sang him happy birthday. Actually Koby looked at me as if I'd clearly lost my mind and honestly after yesterday I wouldn't be surprised if I had.

I made Kyle enchiladas for his birthday dinner and it was scrumptious! After cleaning up the kitchen we caught up on our three missed episodes of Big Brother. Ending result: Willie is insane.
