Scenes From the Weekend

Doesn't it feel like on Friday you are ready to take on the weekend and then you blink and it's Sunday night? I'm pretty sure this time of year flies even faster because we all enjoy it that much more!! So as it turns out I miscalculated my vacation time and ended up with more days than I could carry over into 2015, so I needed to take a few more days off this month - I'm not complaining!! 

Thursday night my firm had their annual holiday party and this years theme was the carnival!! It was a lot of fun and one of the best parts was this caricature artist that created such a fun little piece to put up in our office!! 

Being able to go to a brand new Target when there are maybe 30 people in the entire store is pure heaven!! Having the cutest shopping companion around is even better!! 

We took it easy on Friday night and ordered take out and watched The Hundred-Foot Journey. It was seriously soooo good! I'm usually on my phone scrolling through pictures throughout the movie, but this one kept my attention the entire time!! Worth renting just because it makes you feel good after watching it!! 

Since it was really dreary on Saturday we thought it was probably best to finish the rest of our Christmas shopping and this included stocking up on lots of wine!! Side note: if you've never had Barefoot's Prosecco, you're missing out!! Such good bubbly!! They were having a crazy good deal that if you bought 6 you'd get a $15 rebate and they were already half priced...I call that a win!!  

I had my eye on a few things at MAC and I needed to replenish my Studio Fix powder I decided to pick up the pro long wear concealer since I've heard amazing things about it and after Carly raved about the brush cleaner I picked that up too! I'm embarrassed to say I don't clean my brushes nearly enough, but this cleaner is supposed to be an almost instant dry so I'm excited to let you know how it works! 

That night we headed to my friend Stephanie's housewarming party and wouldn't you know we both had fur on our minds!!! I thought it was finally time to take this Chicwish vest out for a proper night out and I'm so happy I did!! I really love it and it even though it takes a little while to get use to it being bulky, but it's a great statement piece!! 

There was also an extra large bear that Gary cozied up to!! 

My favorite Sunday's are productive ones and this past Sunday was just that! I was able to finish all of our wrapping!! Made my way to Charles Street which has some of the cutest little stores in Boston, it also happens to be my favorite street in the city! Not pictured the intense deep clean of the apartment that also took place!! 

Do you ever just crave some fast food, but don't want to put your body through the regret of eating it!! Well Sunday night we decided to make some Big Mac's and I used Natalie's version found here. These were delicious and so much better than the original!! 

Now it's Monday so it's time to shake things up!! Hope you all have a wonderful start to your week and don't forget to link-up to share your weekends with us!
