trip essentials: part I

Lovely striped journal (a great TJ Maxx find!), and my favorite kind of ink pen in pink!

Fun folding wallet from J. Crew that holds the cards I need!

Large pink Longchamp bag, perfect to carry to school!

What do you absolutely HAVE to carry when you travel????

MORE great finds!!!

If you are looking to buy movies, GO TO ROSS!!!! I found TWO MORE the other day, for $4 and $5!!!! This is a GREAT way to add to your movie collection for a LOT less!!!!

Yesterday, I went to the Commerce outlets with a good friend and found a couple of REALLY good deals!
-I found a pair of navy blue shorts on clearance at J. Crew, and paid $9 for them!!!
-I also found an adorable mini skirt at the Polo outlet - yellow with powder blue stripes - for only $20!!!

I love good bargains!!!!!

GREAT finds!!!!!

I went shopping today in Greenville with my family and found some AMAZING deals!!!!

• At Ross, I found Funny Face (Audrey Hepburn and Fred Astaire) for $4.99!!!! I also found Sex and the City: The Movie for only $4.99!!!
• At Marshall's, I found a CLEMSON orange Lacoste hand/hair towel for $7.00 on sale!!!
• At New York & Company, I REALLY racked up!! They had a huge sale going on, with items 70% off the original price! I found lots of things to take to Costa Rica that I had been looking for: 2 pair of shorts, and about TEN tank tops that I can layer and mix and match but that are still conservative enough to wear there!!!
• At JCPenney, I found an adorable dress! I normally, well, never really shop there, but while putting some outfits together for my mom, I came across this dress on clearance for $11.99!! It's yellow and white floral v-neck with a ruffle collar, and it fits and ties at the waist, with a hem of about 3 inches at the bottom!! I can't wait to wear it! Especially with some red heels!!!
  

good info!!!!

So I'm not married, but I think these are good posts:
Four questions wives should ask their husbands...

Five questions husbands should ask their wives...

It looks like a lot of the issues in marriage are due to COMMUNICATION ISSUES! When I get married, I want to have LOTS of conversations, even uncomfortable ones, so that my marriage can be all that God intended it to be!!

CUTE hair cut!

I love the hair cut on the girl in this picture! Would love to cut and color my hair to look like this after I get back from Costa Rica this fall!!!
