Furniture Market Contest

HAPPY FRIDAY!
Aren't you so glad it's the weekend after work today!? Woohoo!
I sure am.... also excited to finally be meeting up with my fellow Austinite Ruthie Hart & FUTURE Austinite Mallorie Owens who is driving here today and we'll be getting together tonight!! I will be sure to post all about it!

Now for the post topic:
Furniture Market

I joined this contest last week to win my mama a dining room table. Growing up, she and me along with my other siblings have been through so much. Divorce, financial binds, moving constantly, and just recently last year.. losing my Dad.

She's been a completely wonderful single mother and I just really want to do something to show her how loved she really is.
 
This is the picture of the Dining Room table she would get:
Isn't it gorgeous!?!
For Austinites....
If you live in Austin, you need to "like" their page. They are the coolest little hole in the wall furniture store with amazing prices on really nice furniture! It's not consignment, it's kind of like an outlet/overstock type of store.
 
They do FREEBIE's every Friday where you can win something JUST for "liking" them. Seriously... do it. And please don't forget to like my picture!
 
Here is what you do: (this will take 5 seconds tops)

3. Find my Photo and "LIKE" it
4. Share with your friends so they will "like" it too!
 
With this contest - 316 people have voted for my mom to win this Dining Room table. We ARE currently in the lead, but an opponent has started cheating and creating fake profiles on FB to gain votes and now is only about 50 spots behind. I would hate to lose because of something like that- but that's where I need y'all's help badly.

You don't even have to be MY friend to "like" my photo - but please do it for my mom! We've come so far in the contest  - there is only
3 days left!

Thanks so much to everyone who has done it so far! I am so grateful!
Hope y'all have a fabulous weekend!

Huxley Loves Clothes

Yesterday I worked from home and laid around in my PJ's most of the day. I did take a few minutes for lunch and headed over to ROSS which is about 2 minutes away from my house. I initially went to shop around for some dresses to wear over leggings with my boots... and did find 3 cute outfits. Right next to the fitting room though, is the puppy section. Racks and racks of dangerously CUTE clothes! I am such a dorky dog mom. Huxley is like my child... and I'm pretty sure he's spoiled rotten.


Needless to say, I bought him about 5 outfits including a coat, a fleece, and a few tshirts. Lol he LOVES clothes though! He has a very thin coat so when it's cold he hates going outside! Last freezing day, I took him out and he darted for the yard, did his business within a good 30 seconds, and raced back to the front door. Plus these little outfits are just too adorbs on him!






He is the cutest model! He loves stealing the camera away... just look at our most recent family photo....


Hux is just under 5 months old and so full of love, energy, and stinky gas. Yes, I said it. We couldn't be in more love with him he brings so much joy and fun to our lives. Between Sunday and Wednesday, Huxley and I slept on the couch at night cause Daddy had the flu... and when Scott was feeling better Wednesday morning he came to give me a kiss goodmorning before he left for work, and Huxley (half awake) growled at him! It was hilarious. He's very protective of mommy.

I also got this book in the mail yesterday and cannot wait to read it!!

You Had Me At Woof

Ruthie from The Chronicles of Ruthie Hart did a review on this book - and having a Boston myself - I had to grab it as soon as I read this review. You can find that [here].

There is nothing I wouldn't do for my baby Hux. It always makes me so sad to leave him in the morning when I'm off to work that I come home every lunch during the day to play with him for an hour.


Do you have a pet that you are crazy about?
Are you a dorky pup mom like me who likes to dress them up in the craziest outfits?? :) I'd love to know!!
