OOTD- The outfit that almost was!

This is the outfit that almost was... I got this for the movie "Eclipse" in case it won the vote and then it did not.  But, after trying it on I really liked the top and decided to hang onto it!  Here is what I am wearing today...

OOTD- Lunch with Grandma

My wonderful MIL is here on a little visit (and to have my hubby pull a few teeth out!)  The kids and I are planning on taking her out to lunch before the 'fun' begins and she is all sorts of Lortab-ed up!!!  Here is what I am sporting today...

Tank Ann Taylor: White tank

Ps- Last night my hubby and I went to look at a house (we are renting) with a 6 car garage!?  All I keep thinking today is, who needs a 6 car garage?  I think we are going to end up building because every house we look at I come up with at least $50,000 in changes that *need* to be made and lets be honest... we can't afford that on top of a mortgage!

OOTD- Red, Cream and jean!

This is actually what I wore yesterday to the parade, they said it was going to be chilly with a high of 82 so I wore this light cardi.  By the end of the parade I ALMOST SWEAT TO DEATH!!!  No joke!  It was blazin' saddles!  Today I am off to the park then to super-duper clean my pit-of-a-house because my MIL is coming to visit!  I am so excited to have someone to keep me company all day and help fight the battle (of summer boredom with the kids!)  Hope you all have a wonderful day and don't forget to sign up for Peggy's awesome giveaway!!!!

OOTD- Happy 4th!

Happy 4th of July everyone!!!  I love this holiday; I always have!!  It's such a special reminder of all the freedoms we are lucky enough to have and all of the sacrifices that have gone into gaining those freedoms.  I am VERY proud to be an American!  I feel so blessed to live in the wonderful Country where we can speak our minds and not live in fear.  Where we can practice any religion we want, dress how we want and become whom ever we want!  I hope you enjoy this wonderful day and feel as blessed as I do!

OOTD- beating the heat!

I would love to post the picture of me in my swimsuit because I will most likely be in that all afternoon, it's in the 90's and HOT!  My OOTD is hot with the cardi so here is the picture before I change!  We have been running around all morning and I am ready for "mommy time"!  Question: do you wear red, white and blue on the 4th?  I usually do but am wondering if it's a little juvenile (no I do not participate in wearing those horrible Old Navy flag tee-shirt tradition!)  Here is my OOTD...
