Day 5: Favorite Movies You Never Get Sick Of Watching

5 Mar

Phew! I’m finally caught up to day 5. Favorite movies. We all have those movies that we can watch over and over. Those go to movies when we’re home sick, it’s a snowy/rainy night, or we want to have a simple Friday or Saturday evening to ourselves and just want to get lost in a movie that we love (and can practically recite over and over again).

I for one am a total girl. I love rom coms and can’t get enough of them. Don’t get me wrong, I like a good serious movie every now and then, but let’s be honest, I’m a single gal and I would rather watch Kate Hudson over Denzel Washington.

So here are my Top 5 in no particular order:

#1~ The Sweetest Thing I could seriously recite this whole movie. I absolutely love it. Cameron Diaz and Christina Applegate are hilarious and I can honestly say I can relate to this movie.

The Sweetest Thing

#2~ The Holiday Do I even need to explain why this is one of my favorites?? If you haven’t seen it, you must!!

#3 How to Lose a Guy in 10 days ~ I love anything with Kate Hudson (and let’s be honest, who doesn’t love Matthew McConaughey)

How to lose a guy in 10 days

#4 The Break- Up Jennifer Aniston and Vince Vaughn. Two of my favorites in one movie. Enough said.

#5 Sweet Home Alabama Reese Witherspoon. Period. This movie is hands down, one of my all time favorites.

What are some of your favorite movies?? Did any of them make my top 5?

Weekend Favorites

20 Jan

It’s been a little while since I’ve shared some of my favorite things. Since the new year began, I’ve had some new things come along. Enjoy!

 

Favorite new nail polish: Since we have Old Man Winter around for a couple of more months, my nails are still in the dark phase. I found this color at Ulta ~ Femme Fatale

Favorite event of the week~ This week I became an aunt again!!! My nephew, Cooper Walter, was born on Monday, January 14. I’m in love!

Favorite new book~ For all of my Pretty Little Liars fans, this book is a must read. I just started it this weekend and I can’t put it down. It’s a prequel to how it all started. You can purchase it at Walmart, Barnes & Noble, Target or even Amazon.

PLL

 

Favorite new TV show~ For the past two weeks, I have been hooked on a new NBC TV show, Deception. It’s right up there with Revenge for me. You definitely have to check it out!

Happy long weekend!

Weekend Favorites

10 Dec

With only 2 more weekends to go until Christmas is here, my free weekends have come to an end until after the new year. During this time we may feel stressed and overwhelmed by all of the parties we need to attend and spending money on all of the people in our lives. However, we must never forget the reason why we do it~ family and friend bonding (along with cookies and christmas music).

Rather than my usual Friday Favorites, I thought I’d share with you some of my favorite things from this past weekend.

Favorite Event: Jingle Belle Brunch

This past weekend I was able to be surrounded by work family. These are the people I spend the most time with in my life and I appreciate everything each of these ladies do for me and that we do for each other. In the past 5 years, we have grown very close and started traditions outside of school that we now look forward to. In the fall we gather around a fire pit and laugh and tell stories; this past Sunday I hosted a brunch for these lovely ladies along with an ornament swap. Instead of a fire pit, we sat by a fireplace with mimosas in hand. It was a ton of fun!!!

Our delicious assortment of food!

Favorite Christmas Song: This past Saturday while I was running all of my errands, I found myself totally jamming out to good ol’ Brit’s christmas song that came on the radio~ “My Only Wish This Year”. Thankfully it was dark out and no one could tell! Haha

Favorite Home decor: So this past weekend I added a new piece to my holiday decorations. I seriously cannot get enough of white lights. I know I’ve said it before, but there’s just something about them.

Hope you all had a great weekend too!!

Friday Favorites

29 Nov

It’s that time of year, where we get together with old friends, meet some new friends and spend time with our families. I also love decorating my house for Christmas!!! There’s just something about feeling comfort and peace when my house is decorated. I wish I could keep my white lights up all year round!! But since Friday is right around the corner (and I can’t wait!), I thought I’d share my favorite things from this past week.

Favorite Winter Feeling: My house being decorated. Trees, snowmen, stockings, wreaths, you name it. I love it.

 

Favorite comfort food: This week has been beyond stressful for me. So instead of continuing to eat ‘healthy’, I spoiled myself with a delicious comfort food of mine~ Bacon & cheese pizza with fries. Talk about carbs!!! I’m going to be paying for this one for awhile. Lol

 

Favorite Holiday Movie this week: Home Alone~ I love a lot of holiday movies but this is by far one of my favorites. This past weekend, I had a nice quiet Saturday night after spending the day at my sister’s and watched Home Alone. This movie always brings me back to my childhood.

Favorite Event: My sister’s “Sprinkle” for her and my soon to be nephew. This past weekend, I threw my sister a “Sprinkle”. If you’re not sure what a Sprinkle is, it’s a smaller version of a baby shower for a mom-to-be with her second child (or third, fourth, etc). I held it at her house with our family and a few of her closest friends. It was a lot of fun! If you’d like to read about it some more, check it out on my sister’s blog www.modmommy.com

My sister and some of her friends. Even my sister’s dog,Riley, is hanging out with the girls.

 

What are some of your favorite things this season so far?

 

Hope you all had a great week!
