Tuesday love!

Oh how I love Tuesday's! Why, you ask?

Because at exactly 4:30 pm, I am in this class kicking some serious tail!

I definitely don't look like these people, but I'd say I am getting much better! I feel like I could beat someone up if need be, well maybe. Jackie Chan better watch out!

If your gym has these classes, I would go try one. (I also take Group Power 3 times a week.) It is so much better than just lifting weights by yourself at the gym. We all know I would cheat and give up after one rep.

Don't give up after your first class. I almost passed out the first time I took Kick, but that quickly goes away after the first couple times. Ha ha, real funny, I know.

Another reason to love Tuesday:

And

Absolutely CAN NOT miss an episode of Rachel Zoe. Love her and her occupation! Maybe one day I can do something with fashion. A girl can dream, right?

PS.. since her new season started, I still can't tell she is 8 months prego. Seriously?

And this just started last week on Bravo..

It is about a "thift" store in NYC, I use thift lightly, with designer fashions. I still can't afford half the stuff in this store but it was fun to watch what these ~~people~~ millionaires have for consignment.

Ciao,

One Room at a Time

On Saturday, (before the Clemson WIN) Mom and I tackled one of the upstairs bedrooms in her house. We added a fresh coat of "Silver Sage" by Restoration Hardware to the walls. If y'all haven't seen this color, check it out. I have it in most of my house. Sometimes it looks blue and other times it's gray. It's hard to tell in the pictures but it turned out awesome! Mom already had the bedspread to match, fancy that! Now all we need to do is get some pictures hung on the walls and new lamps painted with an accent color. (Don't worry, I won't be using a hammer or nail.)

A few birthday's to share..

Happy 9th Birthday James!

Here is James this past July at Mimi and Pap Pap's house.

This past Monday, October 4th, my oldest nephew turned 9. James looks just like his daddy. I call James "mini Adam". I can not believe how time flies and how fast my nieces and nephews are growing up. James is living in Germany while his dad Adam, my oldest brother, is serving in the Air Force.

Happy 8th Birthday Merritt!

Merritt at Mimi and Pap Pap's house this past Christmas.

Today is Merritt's 8th Birthday and the oldest niece in the Graham family. Merritt is the one that definitely looks the most like me out of all the nieces. She is such a sweet little girl! I just wish they all lived closer so we could see them more often!

Merritt, Campbell and Me

Happy Friday!

I hope everyone has a wonderful weekend! I'm helping my mother paint one of the bedrooms in her new house tomorrow. Of course she is using the same color I just painted my whole house with a couple of months ago. I will be sure to take before and after pictures to share.

Here are some pictures of things that are making me smile!
