Five on Friday

Whew!

It's Friday.

We made it y'all.

[Even if I'm not sure how]

So naturally, since it is Friday, Christina at Carolina Charm is hosting the weekly Five on Friday link-up with the rest of the ladies.

One

I am BEYOND proud of my little sister, Whitney, for her accomplishment this week.

She landed a killer [no pun intended. ok. pun intended. I couldn't help myself] internship for her criminal justice/forensics major.

The county she'll be interning with is the same county I teach for, but also is a pretty big county, with a lot going on. She'll get so much experience, and be way ahead of the game when it comes to her graduating class.

Proud big sister right here.

Did we all forget that we have Thanksgiving to celebrate before Christmas?

I mean HELLO.

Show the Pilgrims some respect.

Until I trace my hand for a Thanksgiving finger turkey, I can't put up Christmas decorations.

But our little town doesn't feel the same way. 

Driving through our main strip, Christmas lights hang from the telephone poles!

WHAT ARE YOU DOING.

I love Christmas just as much as the next person, but I need a healthy dose of pecan pie and turkey first. 

Three 

Ok, call me contradicting.

After I just bashed pre-Christmas celebrating, I couldn't help but fall in love with these Christmas card prints I found on Southern Weddings.

They even gave me an idea for our save the dates going out in December :)

Four

Our weekend plans are non-existent. 

Normally we have plans.

Normally we have somewhere to be.

But this weekend, we don't.

I guess we're just going to go with the flow.

We'll watch the Georgia game - we're both drained after this week for some reason, so we aren't going to go.

But other than that, we're free.

So if y'all want to hang out with these two bums, we're available ;)

Five

I've been so surprised at the number of blog followers I've received over the last couple of weeks!

When I started this blog back in June, I was excited when I had two followers.

I was shocked when I hit ten.

My goal was 50 by the end of the year.

Now, at 64 followers, I'm completely stunned.

Stunned that 64 people care what I have to say.

I write this blog to keep up with my own memories, and share what's going on in my life with my family. Never did I think so many people would join in on my life journey.

So thank you.

For making me feel like I have some good things to say.

For relating your life to mine.

And for not unfollowing me after I post six million pictures of Maci. :P

Make it six million and one.

:)

Happy Friday!
