Weekend Outlook + Giveaway Winner

I'm sitting here at work taking a quick coffee break and wishing I was with my blog friends at GO Blog Social, just blocks away. I've never been to a blog conference, but I am dying to go! Have you been to one before? Thoughts?

Also, thanks to all who entered the Scentsy giveaway! The lucky winner is... Stephanie Hubers! Congrats, I will contact you to get your prize to you!

Anyway, it's a good day, simply because it's Friday. My favorite day of the week. I am so antsy for some weekend relaxation to begin, and this weekend has a pretty promising outlook...

Friday//
I may run down the street over lunch to check out the West Bottoms Antique Shops, since they only open the first weekend of every month. There are so many great finds like re-purposed furniture, art, and home decor. My three favorite shops are (RE) Restoration Emporium, Good Juju, and Bottoms Up.

Adam is with the guys out at The K to watch the Royals Opening Day. So, I may round up the women folk and then we can meet up with them for dinner. Possibilities are endless!

Saturday//
Off to Zumba with my friend Magoo (no, just a nickname, but I wish it was her real name...) and then head on a nice long trail walk with hubs and pup. Saturday evening is all about celebrating our friend Ally's birthday, so the bash will be one heck of a good time!

Sunday//
I don't have my 4th grade Sunday schoolers this week (my break week!), so we can head to church whenever works best. I suspect I will want to cook a more complex recipe for a nice dinner and possibly bake a berry pie (aka: earn some serious wife points).

// What's your weekend outlook? //

In case you missed it this week...

+ weekly link-up

+ tv addicts, help!

+ adam's 30th birthday bash

+ gratitude lately

Catch you for Mingle Monday at the start of next week!

I may or may not send one to a lucky commenter just because I feel like spreading a little extra love...

BAM!
Hello motivation.

Giveaway Winner + 2 Birthday Celebrations!

Happy Friday, Lovelies!
I am sure am thankful that the weekend is finally here... I was about to go crazy! My parents will be in town tonight and tomorrow, so I'm looking forward to a weekend full of fun!

My mom and brother have the same birthday, so we're looking forward to celebrating tonight with a big dinner party. It will be fun to dine with mom/dad, brother/his GF, Adam's parents, and my lovely ginger man.

Did I mention we're going to my favorite restaurant in KC? Yummm....




In other news, I received an overwhelming surplas of e-mails wanting a full review on my healthy Chicken Lettuce Wrap recipe that I mentioned yesterday, and I tried/tweaked last night. So here's my review...

So good I could eat them every single day.

{ Yes, recipe coming your way this weekend. Omg. }
