Five.

I have some VERY exciting news to share!

 
Hubbs and I bought a house!!!  We are signing our Purchase & Sale Agreement today!

It feels like angels were watching over us during this home buying process.  Our house had every single item on our list, and it was the very first home we looked at!  Although we looked at a number of other houses, we just had a feeling about this one, and our feelings proved to be right!

I can't wait to decorate!  Well, I can't wait to move in... then decorate!!!

My parents are in town this weekend to celebrate Jessie's birthday and help us pack.  It'll be a busy weekend, but I'm sure we'll take some time out for a little relaxation and a nice dinner.

And now for my five favorite blog reads this week:

1. Since it's getting around to that spring-cleaning time of year (or for me, throwing things away because I'm moving), it's due time I streamlined my makeup collection.

2. A few great tips for adding a little extra healthy goodness to our meals.

3. Some good blogging advice for dealing with the crazies.

4. A fabulous method for concealing undereye circles and making yourself look awake (even if you're far from it).

5. Bright colors for work make me happy.

And before you go...

Have a great weekend!!!
