Weekend Smeekend.

Monday, November 12, 2012




Hope you are yours had a wonderful weekend! I sure did, but I'm still exhausted. I took off from work today to register for Grad School classes and to say that I am feeling overwhelmed would be an understatement.

But, I know that my God believes in me and knows that I can handle this.
Last night a really great friend, Meagan aka "Merle" came to my house and we chatted for a while. She told me that she felt like that if we were not where God wanted us to be, we wouldn't be there.

he's always faithful to bless his children. 

I had a busy, fun, and exhausting weekend. (isn't that every weekend?)
proof is in the pictures: 


{one} Best and I rooting on our Rebs until the bitter end. If you don't know already we lost by 1 point and that keeps us from being bowl eligible, for now. I will always stay with those boys until the end. They have played their hearts out this year and we are praying for 2 more wins for this season. #hottytoddy always! 

{two} During our photo shoot outside, my fur-babes, Harper wanted in on the action. Isn't that pitiful?

{three} My parent's yard is BEAUTIFUL! I love the trees this time of year. Absolutely makes me believe that living in the country is a blessing all on it's own.

{four} Walking to our seats at "the Vaught" and I heard my name being called. I had the privilege of sitting by this sweet family during the game. The Chrestmans are super special to me and I'm so glad that I've had the opportunity to watch their sweet babies grow up! 
love y'all! 

Happy Monday! I'm expecting to get observed by my principal tomorrow before my big move, so... WISH ME LUCK! 
Prayers are appreciated.

The most favorite day!

Happy Friday, y'all!

This week has been an emotional roller coaster and I'm ready for what's ahead.  i think.

So, this weekend. I'm ready to have a little fun! I plan to do a little of this:

Leopard Print + Stripes

I'm going to Heaven on Earth and seeing the Rebels hopefully pull off another WIN! I'm so excited with how our team is really putting forth an effort. SEC football has my heart! Hotty Toddy!

Best, get ready! :)

Love this polish color-Essie "topless and barefoot".

My family is taking Family Portraits at Rowan Oak and I couldn't be more excited! We haven't had a professional picture in forever! It'll be fun! Just pray we don't kill each other.... 

If you are coming to the game this weekend, hit me up. I'll be in the Grove before! Ahhhh! So ready!

Happy Weekend to you!

Big, LIFE Happenings!

Wednesday, November 7, 2012

so, today brought lots of changes for this girl. It was approximately 8:10, I was getting deep into my Morning meeting with my firsties and I was called to the office.  To make a long story short, I am now the Kindergarten Special Ed teacher and I couldn't be more shocked!

I am super excited but very scared and nervous about this new opportunity in my life. But, I know that my God is a loving God and he will bless every effort that I put in this new adventure! 

So, please pray with me? I know I will need them all and more than anything, pray for my First Grade babies that I am leaving. They don't understand. Oh, it hurts my heart!


If you are a Special Ed teacher, please give me some tips/advice. I would be forever grateful! 
if you would like email me at lil_patton07@hotmail.com


now for some pinterest lovelies.


Just saying... :)

this is absolutely how I feel.

I MISS OXFORD (Ole Miss Rebels)...for real

Could someone buy this shirt for me, please?

Classic work space

this would fit in at my house beautifully!

this week is going by quickly! Hope you are having a wonderful week!

Do something nice for someone! 

the most fun weekends.

hello my blog readers! I feel like it has been forever and a day!

this daylight savings time has thrown me for a loop. I feel like I have bronchitis and I'm exhausted and feel like it's midnight. (it's 5:51, to be exact)

So, this past week and weekend was cuhhhraaazzzzy. I've packed lots of stuff in and I've made some wonderful memories. What do you get when you mix 3 spunky ladies, 4 meals eaten at yummy restaurants, and a wonderful church service with said people. 
** an awesome weekend, DUH! 

let the pictures commence.


my sweet class made my mama a card! I think she  LOVED it. :)

this is mother and cousin, Linda. 
(she's like my 2nd mother)
Lots of people say that I'm more of her daughter than my own mother. She fits in well! :)


we attended the Helen Brett Jewelry show, one of our FAVORITE traditions and these were the purchases! Oh, how I love it. 


this is what my brother and I got my mother for her birthday. Oh, and she's 57 in case you wanted to know! She might kill me after that one. 
sorry mom.

we seriously had a blast staying up late and doing life together. Please, promise me this one thing. 
You'll take time soon to spend time with your girls and just "do" life. Nothing beats it. 

now.. I've got to catch you up on my doings...






I think you can figure these out for yourself. Fun, fun times! Hope you ladies (and maybe gents) are having a wonderful week! Leave me some comment love.


it's beginning to feel a lot like.....

this weekend was the perfect fall weekend. 
hot chocolate, soups, hayrides, scarves and boots. I. love.everything.about.fall.
Our church had a great time at our Fall Festival and I had the pleasure of loving on some wonderful adults and people. God gave me a beautiful church family and I'm very thankful for it. 
I got to babysit my sweet girls after the festival so their mama and daddy could go to the class reunion. We had a fun time playing and watching movies. I love these littles.

now for the evidence that this weekend was too much fun.                  
                             

{1} silly girls! Not wanting to sleep.
{2} Sweet friend's save the date. Can't wait for this wedding!


                                    
{3} Sweet babies at the Fall Festival. 
{4} Mama and I "fallin" it up! 

       



{5} Fun Pinterest Pumpkin "dart" game.
{6} In case you didn't hear, their belief didn't help. 
Alabama is still #1 in the SEC. When will this change?



Look at that face? I wonder why she gets away with so much.

What did you do this weekend? Hope you enjoyed yours as much as I did.

Leave some comments, people!


a little blog sale.

Tuesday, October 23, 2012


Anybody that knows me well, knows that I love a good yard sale. I feel like I'm having an indoor yard sale today and I am so excited. :)

I've been looking around my apartment for some time and tonight I said, "self, I'm going to have a sale." Now, let me be honest. I love a good name brand and I have my share but a lot of my "everyday" clothes are just that. Nothing special. 

If you see something that you would like and you are local, I will be happy to find a way to get you the item. If you are not local and you would like, please leave a comment on the post with what you would like and I will send you a Paypal invoice through your email. 

My email address is lil_patton07@hotmail.com if you have any questions about any of my things!
