Haul From the Mall! (Nothing Thrifted)

So heres the deal:

I had $100 to spend. Its the end of the month, all the bills are paid and I had a little left over which is rare. Hubby said I should go on a little shopping spree and buy whatever I wanted. Super exciting right? Problem is, I cant seem to only spend on myself! 

It doesnt matter how much or how little I have, I always end up spending on little things for my kids or husband. I love my lil family :)

Anywho, I also decided I would try not to spend it in the thrift store. Im proud to say that I accomplished just that. Nothing posted here is from a second hand shop. Everything is new to me! So enough with the rambling, heres how I spent the money:

 Unlisted by Kenneth Cole $15!

They were originally $59 and marked down to $29.50. When I purchased them, all clearance items were an additional 50% off...SCORE!

 More Fun Stuff from Claires: Manicure Kit and two Necklaces @ $1 each

 Skirt for Miss. Corrin from Target: $3.60

Everything post above came to a total of: $65!

I actually ended up spending $82 if we include the dress and jeans that I failed to post (awkward pics). The plan is to share those in later style posts. 

All in all it was a lot of fun. Its funny to me that nothing I purchased was full priced. Everything was at a reduced and darn near free point! 

I suppose Im just made up of discounted bones :)

Happy Friday All!

Micah (the 7 year old) started Space Camp this week so we've been on the move. Between dropoffs and pick-ups there hasnt been much free time for me. Well except yesterday when I found some really cute stuff that I cant wait to show you all :)

Dont you just love lil baby toes :)

Miss Corrin and I share a love for mani/pedis. She likes to choose a color from my extensive yet underused color collection every week. Her favorite part is not the soaking her feet or the girl talk (about Dora or Strawberry Shortcake), its the "foot ah-sage) :)

Its a fun way for us to spend time together.

Well 7pm is the official time for summer to begin if you want to get all technical about it. Im usually not excited about the sweltering heat, allergies, bugs ect. But this year since Im "working" as a stay at home mom, the main reason (work) why I cant really enjoy the summer has flown out of the window.  Ive decided to try and bypass all the excuses as to why I cant go outside and just go for it. I plan on creating great summer memories with my kids :)

Concerts in the park? Bring it on. Picnics with the kiddos? Im game! At least I am until I get sunburned or have a serious sneeze attack lol

This is how my week has gone since Wednesday:

I packed a couple of suitcases and

Sent my children off to spend time with The Grandpat aka My Dad : )

 Since I had free time, I was able to thrift with my buddy Nina,

Hangout without interruption with my best friend aka the hubby at coffee shops. Which means NO Backwash into my yummy drinks!

 Everyone say HELLO to my Soy Green Tea Latte :)

We attended the grand opening of H&M together. Not early enough to stand in line in 97 degree weather but just in time for hubby to snag some cute stuff. Can you believe I bought absolutely NOTHING???

We watched the 911 Reporters perform!

Eric aka The Bro in Law (911 Reporters!!!)

Finally ate at Red Robin...Yumm :)

I tore this poor Whiskey River Burger (substituted a Boca patty of course) UP!!!

And finished up with a nice long stare at the man I adore :)

All of this fun crammed into less than 48 hours. Now Im heading off with the hubby to live it up in our last 24 hours of childlessness :)

Have a Great Weekend!
