Not sure where to start.

So much has happened since my last blog post.

I launched a business. I had a birthday.

Lee is home. He's safe, healthy and we're more in love than ever.

We had a national disaster 6 miles from our home yesterday afternoon and today that trumps all the details of anything else.

I've received several calls and texts asking for ways to help those effected by yesterday's tornado:

-Text REDCROSS to 90999 to donate $10 to Red Cross and/or Text FOOD to 32333 to immediately donate $10 to Regional Food Bank of Oklahoma. (funds withdrawn from phone bill)
-Blood Needed! Drives setup today at Riverwind, Lucky Star & Sugar Creek Casinos.
-Animal Resource Center in OKC is taking in misplaced pets. Donations needed.

Love you all. xo

Have a great weekend, y'all! I'm leaving the office soon for a mtg and to get my hair done before heading to the lake house for Mother's Day weekend! Don't ya know I gotta get my hair-did before Lee comes home? xo

I really want THIS table lamp from Restoration Hardware for our entry table but I'm kinda on the prowl for a look alike with a better price but somehow I doubt I find one that I love as much.

I basically don't want a lamp with a shade since the overhead pendant in the entry has a shade. I also don't want to commit to buying anything right now either since we're going to build and I'm likely to completely change my mind down the road. Ha! Now you know why I'm only kinda on the prowl.

good news+

Last night I ran to Hobby Lobby and Pier 1 to get a couple things. I'm trying to finish styling a few spaces for pictures. I'm having a hard time finding a stopping place because I'm not finding exactly what I want.

I can hardly focus this week because we should be learning Lee's homecoming date any day now! Crazy, right?! There's a really good chance he might be home sometime next week but where and when I have no idea. However, that means a huge homecoming party is right around the corner too! I'm super excited to celebrate Lee, this past year's accomplishments and what's to come. AND my birthday is next week too! Holy smokes. Best birthday present ever.

And we're getting a HomeGoods. Yay! Construction is in progress now.

I'm going to the lake house for Mother's day and we're ordering shrimp from our favorite vacay spot to be overnighted for a yummy shrimp boil. How fun is that?!

Now let's chat about my favorite celebrity "dress up" event, the Met Ball. I want to go badly! Or at least attend the red carpet and gawk at the edgy designs. Ha! From what I have seen, Cara Delevingne and Ivanka Trump top my list this time. Surprise contenders, huh? There were a lot of knockouts but my wins are always decided based upon what I would wear only.

Cara's plunging neckline and studded detail had me at 1st glance. This Burberry dress is perfect for the night's punk to couture theme. She looks stunning. Makeup and hair are perfect and this dress even looks slinky like it would be comfty for a fun night with friends.

The supermodel looks to have had a blast in the dress too! Sienna Miller must have said something funny about their resembling ensembles.

I was somewhat surprised to see Mrs. Trump hit the nail on the head with a punk theme. I love the navy and green together. She too looks stunning but in a Juan Carlos Obando gown. She even did some color streaks in her hair for the evening. I feel like she gets prettier and prettier, no?
