Wreck em!

What a game! I am not going to lie...yesterday when I was putting on my new red pants and adding black I was not thinking my team was going to be even close to pulling it through. I figured walking through the streets of Norman with our friends and the Sooner fans seeing our outfits we would be made fun of. We we're at first but WRECCKKKK EMM!!!




As you all know the game had a rain delay. We sat underneath the stadium for a good 2 hours but we had some great entertainment. We met up with our family friends the Aycocks and sat down on a wall next to a phone outlet. Well of course a concession stand man comes by and is selling waters and Cokes next to us....
1.Bless his heart
2. HOLY CRACK! this video speaks for itself :)



hilarious.

Besides the game there have been some fun things going on in our little world! My work had a fashion show for United Way! It was so fun to go with some new girls that have become great friends at work. The clothes were for sure out of my price range (Rachel Zoe, Valentino, Marc Jacobs, etc.) but it was so fun to look! There was free champagne, cake balls, shrimp cocktail galore and Black eyed peas blaring! Perfect Thursday night pick me up!







We recently went to some of our new friends house in Edmond. Such beautiful houses and developments out there! At the dinner party there was a special little guest...Lucy! She is a baby golden lab and stole my heart! Any dog steals my heart (as you all know my little princess Milly) but she was so sweet and cuddly!



Little Lucy:


So far Oklahoma has treated us very well and I guess we brought a little Lubbock luck to Norman.......just sayin! ;) Hope you all have a great Sunday!

blog slackin' and new finds!

I am SO behind on posting to the blog! There have been many changes and shifts in this household! Back at the end of August I was so excited to be offered a job at Ernst and Young! I would be doing tax processing and I thought it would be such a great start into "big girl world" because I knew nothing about taxes or accounting and maybe I could pick up some things on the way! I started and met so many sweet people. After many long 18 hour days and 1:30 am nights at the office..the job proved to be too much for us. Being newly married and coming home to Trey already asleep and me being exhausted every single day was just not a good fit! I decided to just keep my eyes open and my heart open if another opportunity came along....sure enough, it did!! I got a call from Chesapeake Energy the week of the 15th (for those of you who know accounting and tax that's the week of the deadline which was SUPER busy and exhausting) asking for an interview! I was beyond excited and felt like it was such a God send after I already came to the realization that this current job was just not working. I went into the interview on a Friday and got the call Monday for the offer! Telling Ernst and Young was hard and I felt like a quitter, but sometimes you just have to do whats best for you and not be worried about what people think. After my two weeks were up there I started Chesapeake this past Monday! I am going to love it. So many great benefits, people and such a fun atmosphere! I am getting my new schedule set up because now I have all these fun class options at lunch (Pilates, Zumba, body pump, yoga, maybe a dip in the Olympic size pool?) We will see, maybe this winter I will have a rockin' bod!




Besides all of our job changes things have been fun around here! Married life is such a blast! I laugh more than I've ever laughed, smiled more than I've ever smiled and dreamed more than I've ever dreamed! Of course Milly still runs this house...shes my baby girl!


We went to our first OU game this past weekend thanks to our friends Stuart and Stephanie!
They gave us free tickets that were awesome! Fun atmosphere and awesome football...but we are still raiders!

Fall is in the air and I feel it! I LOVE fall. Such a cozy feeling! We have already had pumpkin bread, burned Pumpkin spice candles everyday and I am loving all the decorating ideas on Pinterest (my bad obsession). So many cute clothes for fall coming out too! I am loving leopard, capes, orange and skinny pants lately. Here are my favorite finds for this fall:

My Tory Burch Eddie flats. These are SO comfy and are perfect for just about any outfit! I wear them almost everyday and they jazz up solids and are perfect for fall!

I love this Cassia jacket from Anthropologie! With skinny jeans and boots it will be great for fall weather!

So heres to fun shopping, football and new jobs! Fall is officially in the air!
