Hey there friends. It’s Frrriiiiday. Woot!

Who had a good week? Hopefully…all of you.

Did you do a lot? I feel like life is never ending, am I the only one?

Here’s what I did this week:

1. My blog turned 2! And I’m giving away some of my favorite things. Oh, and I made pie. Of course.

I would like to say, all your sweet comments and FB posts and tweets are just making me a little emotional. I heart all of you too! Thank you for being not just loyal visitors, but friends too. 🙂

2. I hijacked Back for Seconds while she was out of town. I love that girl and I know you will too! I made her some Pecan Pie Poptarts. Go see!

3. Ashton and I revealed our first big Online BlogCon giveaway. A Kindle Fire HD 8.9″! All registered attendees of Online BlogCon are eligible to enter. What are you waiting for??

And, the posts are starting to come in for the conference. You guys are gonna be SO excited. They are awesome. PLUS we have some more great giveaways planned. I cannot wait to buy some new PJs to wear all day. 🙂
4. I got the caffeine jitters from drinking and eating coffee in one sitting.

5. I admitted to my shoe addiction and related shoes to things on sticks.

6. I turned 35.

7. Jordan has her first cheer game this weekend. It’s going to be so cute I’m sure I’m going to die from the cuteness.

8. Why yes, I have too much time on my hands. Red is Mel, purple is me, blue is what we watch together. By October our DVR will be full because football takes up 3 nights a week. (Thanks NFL. We reealllly needed that Thursday night game, right?)

9. Hey, have I told you about Online BlogCon? Just kidding. You’ve already registered…right?

10. If you have a DSLR, I’d love to hear about what kind it is, what I should get, and what lenses are the best. I’m starting to research them.

11. We finally, finally (after 8 months) hung our headboard in the new house. They are 12 separate photos I turned black and white and framed. All the photos are places that Mel and I have vacationed or that have special meaning for us.

12. It is still hot here: forecast 90 degrees for the foreseeable future. What the heck, Mother Nature? I want Fall and I want it now!

Okay, well. I could go on and on and on…but I’ll stop. 🙂

((Hugs)) to everyone, and have a great weekend!

xo, Dorothy

  1. I have a Nikon D200 which is several years old but I love it. Someday when I have the funds for a new camera I will go with another Nikon. I don’t know a lot about lenses except that I would love more of them and that they cost and arm and a leg!

  3. Cute headboard! That is such a great idea. I use the Nilkon D3100 and shoot with a AF-S Nikkor 55-200mm 1:4-5.6G lens. It is one of the two lenses that came with the package I got and its worked for me. I would love to get more lenses but holy cow are they expensive so for now this one works. This camera is great. I know others that use the Cannon Rebel and they love that too. When I invested in mine I was torn between these two and ended up with the Nikon. Can’t wait to hear what you get! 🙂 ps: Happy Birthday! 🙂

    1. I did! I wore my nude colored ones. 🙂 Planned the whole outfit around them and then tried not to kill myself walking around The Cheesecake Factory. 🙂
