What I Wore Wednesday - Quality Time with the Hubs

I realize it's not Wednesday, but this is what I wore on Wednesday. =)  The Hubs and I have been off of work all week, so we sent the kids to daycare and had a date day. What? That's not me being a bad mom! That's me keeping my marriage young and fresh and all that jazz.  We went to a local seafood restaurant for some absolutely scrumptious shrimp & cheesy grits and then went to see Sherlock Holmes.  

And this, my friends, is what I deem appropriate for a date day. =)

So, as you've probably noticed I've been kind of MIA the past week or so in the blogging community and I'm sorry!! I'll be back as soon as things get back to normal next week. If you're new to the blog and have recently left a comment or something of that nature, I'll be heading over to say hi really really soon! I thought it was crazy busy and difficult to fit everything in when I'm working, but it's even more difficult when I'm on vacation! lol

I hope you all had a fabulous Christmas with your families and that you'll have a happy and safe New Years!!

I'm linking up today with the fabulous girls over at Monday Mingle and with The Pleated Poppy.

Happy Veteran's Day

My outfit has absolutely nothing to do with Veteran's Day . . . but Happy Veteran's Day nonetheless! Today I'm thankful for our Veteran's and the sacrifices they've made to keep our country safe!

Now on to shallow and superficial things like clothes. =)

I wore this yesterday to work. It was my first time belting a sweater that wasn't a cardigan. I'm still scared to try belting a thick sweater, but I think this worked because it was thin and more like a shirt than a big cozy sweater.

Jacket: Thrifted ($5)

Sweater ($10) & Belt ($7): Target

Jeans: Target (Handed Down)

Shoes: Rsvp from 6pm.com ($6.95)

Jewelry: My Sister's

This is my "Holy crap, it's cold!" face. =)

I hope y'all have a fantastic weekend! I have off today, so I'm enjoying the long weekend with my sweet family!  And if you're a veteran, thank you again for all that you do for the rest of us!
