Happy Birthday Sugar!

Good morning! How is everyone? Today, I need to go by my parents and make a special visit to Sugar who is turning 16 today! Having her around for 16 years has been such a blessing! She was my classmate while I was home schooling which she was either sleeping through class or she was barking at me when is said a Blonde moment kind of answer! She mostly just sleeps now but every so often when I come by to visit she gets a little extra pep in her step and will give you that whole body tail wagging.  I love her so much and I hope to have 16 more years of visiting her!

Happy Birthday Sugar! Hope everyone has a wonderful day! Give you Fur Babies extra love today! Remember to them you are their whole world!

I'm on a mission

Good morning! Happy day to you! I have a bridal shower to attend on Saturday. I know what I want to wear but not everything is in my closet.... which means I HAVE to go shopping! Yay!  Her wedding is the Country, Rustic, theme so I am getting a feel that dresses and cowboy boots is what will be wore at the shower as well! I just have to wait until Thursday night to go do a little shopping. I have it planned out though....Kohls first to get a strapless, lace dress that is on sale for $24.99. It comes in all colors Navy, Coral, Mint, Aqua, Pink, Ivory, Black, and White....I'm not sure which color I want and each dress has a brown belt with it. Next stop and last stop is Walmart they have statement necklaces for only $10 in stores! I have my cowboy boots so I feel my outfit will be set!

Hope you all have a wonderful day! If you create this same outfit let me know comment below or Hashtag Blondefashionhappy on instagram!( #blondefashionhappy) I would love to see your creations!

Anyway it's Tuesday and for me that means it's Pretty Little Liars night!!! The night where I watch the new episode and become even more confused then before I started watching it! Who else feels that way? I want answers there are too many secrets! Just spill the beans already! Life it too short to keep us waiting this long!

What comes around.....

Good morning! Hope everyone had a wonderful weekend! Mine was real laid back. We went out Friday night with my parents and had a great time! Saturday and Sunday were pretty lazy! Just how I like them! 

I thought last night's episode of True Blood called Karma was good...seeing that Bill and Sookie now have some bigger issues..... I don't want to give it away incase one of you still has to go back and watch it..... and if you watched it you know what I am talking about..... The episode was titled Karma..... Which made me think about Karma....something that I wish some would have happen to them....

Here are some quotes that I feel go along with the Karma feel....

Have a great day!

Outside things look great but inside.....

Hello everyone! Hope you are having a wonderful weekend! Today has been a lazy day for me and I really needed it. Thunderstorms occurred last night that woke me so I ended up sleeping later today.

 I found another quote today that I felt like sharing because well it is totally how I am feeling today.

I am staying quiet about a few things and inside I am just screaming at the top of my lungs. I really hate conflict but I also don't like being disrespected.  But what do you do? I have spoken my mind and yet things haven't changed and I am still in the wait and see stage. I am to the point where if something doesn't happen very soon about the situations... my taking a stand will be leaving the situations behind me...

Quotes that make you think.....

Hello everyone! Good morning! Hope you all slept well and are feeling refreshed for this new day! I am having a tough time remembering it's Wednesday and  Thursday.... this week is moving slow... Everything is fine but just feels like it is taking forever....

I saw some pretty cool quotes yesterday! Which I love reading or seeing new quotes because to me they are in a way like art they speak to you one way but to another they say something totally different. Also, they are like a song, they put how you are feeling into words.

 Here are the quotes made me think a little bit....

This quote is awesome to me because the days gets hard sometime and yet if it didn't life would be really boring. Sometimes you have to take a deep breathe, put that Supergirl or Superman cape on save the world, and sit back and see how far you have come! 

How cool is this quote! I love it! To me it is saying, it's going to be just fine taking new chances/ going different places that you can still be yourself/ wear the same outfit.

How do the quotes speak  to you? Comment your thoughts below. I am very interested in hearing your thoughts or feelings about them! 

Hope you all have a wonderful day! Maybe these quotes can help you get through your day! Remember Always wear your smile it's the best accessory you can wear plus life is short  so show off those teeth while you still have them!!!

Tea Party for 80...

Hello! Happy Saturday to you! Hope you all have enjoyed your day! I got a 2 hour massage at Massage Envy felt amazing! I added the aroma therapy to it with the smell of Rosemary and Mint.... Fabulous! Although when I got home, Kris told me I smelled like a grandpa.... Boys.... Anyway, I wanted to tell you and show you how the tea party for Deema turned out yesterday!!!! 

My mom out did herself like always everything was just beautiful! the colors of the day were lime green and pink. I ended up matching the decor :) My mom, sister, and I wore maxi dresses and our big sun hats. Deema was so thrilled to have "her girls" together for a little lunch for her. 

Even Deema wore a fancy hat....

The menu consisted of..... Sweet Tea, ham biscuts, watermelon, and two different kinds of pasta salad. 

Sugar also attended she is Bichon that will be 16 the end of this month

I wore a maxi dress and hat from Walmart, a bubble necklace from Rue 21, and a belt from Avon

I liked wearing the hat so much I kept it on after lunch while I soaked up the sun!

 Yesterday was such a sweet treat for all of us and I am so glad I got to be a part of it. My week off with my family was wonderful! I think now I am ready to start counting down for the cruise!

Good morning! Happy Friday!

Good morning! Happy Friday! I have had such a wonderful week off of work! I miss my kids but I have been able to relax and enjoy some things I have been missing in my life! I mostly laid out by my parents pool and soaked up the sun! felt so good! I also transformed our bedroom from feeling like we are sleeping in the wilderness to now comfy-happy sleeping. As well as made a new collage frame....which I love!!!

Last night, I made Kris watch Can't Buy Me Love since it was now on Netflix and it is my mom's all time favorite movie!  The movie is from 1987 ( great year) Patrick Dempsey starred in it. If you haven't watched it you totally should! 

It was funny to see the fashion from back then that is coming back in style now a days. Like I am waiting on what they call a "Fishing shirt" which is a long sleeve button up shirt that is monogrammed on the back to wear as a bathing suit cover up and yet... Cindy Mansini had on a button up shirt herself as a cover up...

I hope you all had a wonderful week! Today, is going to be another fun day for me! We are throwing my Deema a tea party birthday party she is going to be 80 years old on Monday! we ware wearing our big hats and dresses and then having a pool day! I am hoping to take lots of pictures because I can't wait to see how beautiful my mom has everything prepared and plus I can't wait to wear my big hat and dress! :) I feel as if I will be looking like I am from the Hamptons today! Let me get my princess wave ready! 

Have an awesome day and check back tomorrow for the pictures of today!

Happy Birthday to me!

Good morning! It's been so nice waking up to birthday messages on facebook, instagram, and text messages on my phone. I took this week off to enjoy time with my parents as well as some me time! I plan on getting a 2 hour massage, a pedicure, and laying out by the pool! sometimes you just need some time to stop relax and take a moment to realize what all you have to be lucky for since the steady routine of life sometimes blocks you from remembering that.

Hope you all enjoy your day!

<3 Ashley

Gotta LOVE my friends!

Hey everyone! Hope you all are having a wonderful weekend! I woke up with a headache from my fun night of celebrating my birthday with my family and friends.  Anyway, so you guys know how much I want a dog and Kris won't let me get one.... so many tell me to just get one what's he going to do... well I don't feel that that is fair and I also don't feel that him telling me no is fair either! Not to long ago one of my friends said," If you twerk I'll get you a dog" thinking I wouldn't because I am the quiet one at the bon fires, get together, and so on well that night I earned the nickname "Smashly" because I twerked everything my mama gave me. Honestly I would have twerked anyway I love to dance haha So last night my friends gave me a gift!

Meet Toby! They got me a stuffed dog! 

It may not be the real thing but it is always the thought that counts! 

Hope you all have a wonderful rest of your weekend!

Thinking on this Thursday....

I have found that the high school behavior we all go through in life never really stops....whether it happens with co-workers, family members, or your friends. There is always somebody that likes to stir the "drama pot" and it's a shame. People are busy with their own lives and I guess once you hit the age of understanding that and not looking at it as people are ignoring you....then will have much more respect for others. Life is hard and it's horrible to think that a "friend" would make it tougher on their "friend" causing those issues. People don't have to talk to each other everyday... it's not them being rude...it's not them ignoring you....it's them living their life that they have to live to pay the bills....

hope this doesn't offend anyone but it was just my thoughts and wanted to know if anyone else feels this way...guess i'm thinking a lot with turning 27 next week....

I have locked myself in my bedroom, been flipping through the magazines, while listening to Jessica Simpson songs.... Sometimes acting like a kid again is what you need!

Firework outfit!

Good morning! Alright so what are you wearing to go see the fireworks?  What's the outfit you picked out that will have you walk by with a bang?!

Are you going for a dressy outfit? Like a red dress with blue and white accessories?

Or are you going to take the casual looks? Skirt with a tank or tee with jeans shorts?  

Either way I know you will look fabulous! I will be camping so I am going with the casual look I have my Mark tank ( its from last year but I love it) and I'll be wearing my jean shorts but I think I will pack my red maxi just incase!

Hope you all have a wonderful day!

American Woman...

Hello! Happy Wednesday! How is the week going for you? Moving slow or can you not believe it is Wednesday? Everyone is usually spending the day at the pool having a cookout or at the beach or at the lake or bay or wherever in that cute Patriotic bathing suit! Well, Normally I never have one because I feel like I don't want to spend money on a bathing suit that I would wear one time but this year I decided why not and I found a way to make it not be so bad.

I ordered this monogram bikini top from an Etsy store TheSouthernGoldCo

then I ordered the bottoms from Charlotte Russe

 

The koozie I ordered from the Etsy store  O'sew cute designs

I am so excited about the 4th Of July! I can't wait! 

Hope you have a wonderful day and a safe 4th of July!
