Confessional Friday: {Link-Up}

I've got a lot to confess today, so let's get to it, shall we?

1. I still haven’t ordered Christmas cards or begun my holiday shopping yet. But I DID find the perfect cardigan on McAuley’s website for parties and get-togethers this month…

Priorities, people.


2. More about the fabulous store above in a post next week! MY WORD at the gorgeous items, y’all.


3. I was blown away by the emails I got from everyone on Wednesday night about the excitement surrounding New Year, New You series. You girls made this blonde blush : )


4. I made chicken and dumplings on Monday night because my dear, sweet husband has been craving them forever and I was feeling extra domestic. Two words: FOOD. FAIL.

The dumplings were chewy like rubber, the broth was thin and the flavor was wonky. I usually fancy myself a pretty decent cook, but wow…it was bad.


5. Despite what you may think of the guy as a football player, I must admit – I love Tim Tebow. I admire his steadfastness with his faith and also the courtesy with which he treats people. Even those that rip him in the media. I saw him in an interview this week and thought, “Wow. He really is a good guy. A real NFL hero.”

Professional sports stars that lead a clean and decent lifestyle are few and far between anymore, so Mr. Tebow – just keep doing you.


6. I'm already getting pumped for the BCS National Championship game! I'm over the moon that two SEC teams are going this year. Which one will I root for?


7. 'Bama. Duh.


8. Why, you ask?

a) I've always had a thing for 'Bama. They're my 2nd favorite team, next to our Hogs.

b) So I can wear this dress that i bought back in August (sorry, I can't find the link!):

9.  I am SO BUMMED that I'll be missing the finales of DCC: Making the Team and Sweet Home Alabama - Tribble Edition tonight! We're going to Oklahoma City to visit Stephen's dad for the weekend, which is awesome, however, I'll be awaiting my DVR with bated breath : )


10. Speaking of DCC...do y'all think it would be okay for me to purchase a Dallas Cowboys Cheerleading costume, just to wear around the house? Totally being serious here. I've always wanted to be an honorary DCC, but I'm afraid at 27 years old and way past my cheerleading prime, it ain't gonna happen. (Yes, you're allowed to laugh hysterically about how dorky I am.) I'm sure Stephen wouldn't protest ; )







Be blessed, lovelies-
