Dance into a New Decade

I think this past weekend was the perfect way to kick off being 30!  Friday was a nice lazy, relaxing day spent with family, eating pizza and cake, and taking not one but TWO naps:)  Around 3:30, Skip and I dropped the girls off at my parents house for a two night sleepover!  It was the longest I've ever been away from the girls, and while I was a little anxious and sad, I was pretty excited for some kid free time.

Emmy enjoyed the cake

But not as much as Charlie

That night Skip, my sisters, a whole bunch of my friends and I headed into Hoboken to do a little dancing!  It's been years since I'd been to a bar I could dance at, and I was so excited!!  I know I had a fabulous time and I think everyone else did too!  It was relaxed, crowded but not too bad, and the DJ played a great mix of music! 
All dressed up!

With heals on too!

I've had this shirt for about a decade...love the back too much to get rid of it!

Super blurry, but here are all the boys that went to high school together

We danced the night away until about 1:30 and then a few of us headed back to our friends' apartment for a little after party.  Skip and I stayed until 3:00 am or so, and after a quick pit stop at McDonald's, got into bed around 4:30.  It was crazy late, but at least it wasn't because either of the girls were up screaming!!

It was absolutely the most perfect way to ring in this new decade!!!

    Happy 30th Birthday !!

    That sounds like the perfect way to celebrate being 30! I found that turning 29 was rougher then turning 30.
    Also- happy to see someone else enjoys late night trips to Mcy D's! I swear it helps the hangover

Spring Giveaway!

First off I want to thank Kim over at Life As I Know I t for becoming my 100 th follower! I love her blog and just know we would hang out all the time if she didn't live across the country. I am completely humbled that 100 people actually want to read what I have to say! Blogging has opened up a whole new world of friendships to me and I would probably not have kept doing it if it was not for all of you! Okay, now it's down to the good stuff. I am *dying* for a little spring around here. We had a few days of warmth and sunshine, but for the past three days it has been raining...again....I heard they have even mobilized our National Guard in case the rivers decide to really get out of hand...you know more than the crazy flooding they've already been doing. Anyways, one of my favorite things to do to get ready for spring is to paint my nails a fun, bright color. So today I am giving away these beauties. One lucky reader will win all four of these fabulous colors! I g...

$50 CSN Giveaway!!

As you all know, I have raved about my love of CSN stores several times before.  They have a huge selection of products and are constantly adding new stores to their website.  My family definitely headed over there to do some of our Christmas shopping, and I was just perusing their selection of flat panel TV stands.      It's one thing, however, for me to tell you how great CSN is.  But it's another for you to experience it yourself.  That is why I am so excited to be sponsoring a $50 gift certificate giveaway to CSN to one of my readers!!!  It's the perfect opportunity to order yourself something you didn't receive for Christmas, or check out their fitness equipment to help with your new year's resolution! Entering is simple...just leave a comment telling me what your new year's resolution is {you can also just say you aren't making any this year if that's the case!}  The giveaway will be open until January 7th 10:00 pm est.
