sinful shine: alfresco (thanks Dena!)
essie: ignite the night

Once again, I’m so happy to see Friday roll around!  I’m doing my best to be sure I actually make my weekends weekends.  You’d think that’d be easier, but I’m always trying to catch up on work or finding things that need to get done.  I need to be more intentional about resting.

Oh, and I forgot to mention!  If you’re local, go and pick up a copy of Cary Magazine!  I was contacted back in December to contribute to an article that ran in this month’s edition!  Now, I haven’t seen what my picture looks like yet (they’re sending me a copy of the magazine since I’m kind of far away), but if my face is flushed red–it’s because JUST before the photo was taken, something really stupid came out of my mouth that ended up being a “that’s what she said” kind of moment.  To say I was mortified would be an epic understatement.  Anyway–it’s worth picking up!

My Aunt was cool enough to find the link!  Check out the article here!

Hope you all have absolutely awesome weekends!  What do you have going on?
