Weekend Recap // JT Edition!

We crossed #78 off of the 101 in 1,001 Days Bucket List this weekend! We finally got to see JT in concert and it was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!! He really is a serious entertainer - he can obviously sing, he has killer dance moves, and he plays guitar....swoon ;) I will stop and let the pics do all of the talking... please excuse the major fan girl moments of this entire post :)

But first....

The Outfit//

{ I couldn't decide what to wear so I left it up to all you girls on Facebook & Instagram... Thank you for all of your help! }

 {The winner was #1 -- #2 made an appearance the next day for a few family Christmas celebrations (Outfit post coming later this week) }

Concert Time//

{ These are our "OMGOSH I can't contain my excitement" faces.. you know, just in case you were wondering}

{ Our "hurry up, JT" smiles... He was about 40 minutes late to start, but once it started we totally forgave him! }

{The lighting and graphics were so awesome - 20/20 experience for sure!}

{He showed some serious fan love... let's pretend we were down there ;) }

{ The necessary concert pic, of course }

{ And then he was 20 feet in front of us! AHHHH!! }

Thank you moving stage! :)

Any JT fans out there?! Have you seen him in concert? 

P.S. The Hubs and I are about to head to Florida for our very first Christmas away from Georgia... We will seriously miss our family here, but we are so thankful to get away and change tradition since my brother will not be with us... Mom is already down there and when she stepped out on the deck she immediately saw a huge dolphin right by the shore... She said she knows Bug is there in spirit, sending her a dolphin :) 

Wishing everyone going somewhere for Christmas safe travels!

The hubs & I leave for San Fran tomorrow morning! I can hardly wait!

I am excited for so many reasons:

1)   I have never been to Cali so I am excited to say I will be editing my 101 in 1001 Days list by crossing off #49 (hopefully! With the earthquakes that just happened I heard several vineyards were seriously damaged), and adding a state & a few cities to numbers 46 & 48!

2)   It’s a high of 68 most days, with the highest temp at 70.  You know what that means?! All the amazing fall outfit inspirations I have been pinning like a crazy woman, yeah those, will be happening even if I have to change 20 times/day! And nope, I do not plan on packing lightly, I am bringing it allll! Oops!

3)   The hubs will be in a conference for the better part of 2 days, so that leaves me to do some solo city exploring and I have to say, I am actually excited and I feel so I-N-D-E-P-E-N-D-E-N-T. haha baby steps...

4)   We already have an awesome to do list & we fully intend on knocking it out in the few short days we have!

Here is our must do list so far:

-       - Hike in Redwood Forest

-       - Take a ferry ride to Sausalito & eat at the Copita restaurant

-       - Ride bikes across the Golden Gate Bridge

-       - Eat at Fisherman’s Wharf

-       - Napa wine tastings (duh!)

-       - Have drinks at Press Club

-       - Try a few new coffee shops (sorry StarB, I will be cheating on you.)

-       - Ferry Building & marketplace square

If you have any suggestions of things to do or places to eat! Please share! Our list can never be too long ;)

one more.. hubs was playing with shots & I thought this one turned out cool! 

Interested in following us along during our trip? Follow on Instagram but warning: it will be picture OVERLOAD! However, I can promise a few bunch of fall looks to inspire you!

I'm writing from Florida today! Mom and I decided a day ago to make a last minute trip down to visit some family.  I'm looking forward to relaxing by the pool, maybe doing a little shopping, grilling out, and maybe some golf or pickle ball (super fun btw, don't laugh).  If you follow along with me on Instagram I post some workout wear a time or two... Here is my favorite workout wear from last week + a good laugh for you & a KILLER Cardio track workout I did, enjoy :)

Yeah... so this happened when the Hubs told me I can use the button on the side of my iPhone to take a pic {mind blown}. Clearly, I was just terrible at it, so mental note: I need to work out that... eventually after many quite unsuccessful tries I gave up and gave the oh so high tech iPhone back to the Hubs in defeat... Now that I have just revealed my complete and total un-techy self... I would like to apologize for any terrible pics and the un-techy greatness of the blog. I am extremely excited to learn more and evolve the blog as I do.  Oh and any pointers you have for new-ish bloggers would be much appreciated.

Now that I have confessed that...on to the workout:

KILLER Cardio Track Workout
Complete each round twice before moving on to the next round.
Round 1
Run 200m
10 full burpees
10 Jumping Jack planks
Round 2
Run 200m
20 walking lunges (10 each leg)
20 air squats
Round 3
Run 200m
10 Upward dog into downward dog (slow and controlled)
10 tricep pushups (I did girlie style bc I was dying....)
Round 4
Run 200m
10 full sit- ups
10 knee ups

I was going to take a pic after, but well like I said I died so there was none of that business happening...

Side note: I am super competitive with myself so I typically always time my circuit workouts so that when I complete them again I can see if I can push myself a little harder.  I definitely recommend this if you are training by yourself to give yourself that extra push... it's so worth it! 

I hope everyone had an amazing weekend! I would love to hear about any great workouts you did or if you can make me feel better about never knowing I could use my camera from the side of my phone... I wouldn't mind that either :)

So I don't know about everywhere else, but here in Georgia the weather is WAYYY too warm for Christmas to be in 3 days! I actually ran outside in shorts today! What the heck is going on?! The outfit today was influenced by the unseasonally warm weather - I decided to pull out some pretty flowers, a tank, and no tights! I attempted tights, but I was seriously too hot! Oh and if you noticed the gross hair - its due to the lovely rain and NO straightener! Boo! I HATE my naturally curly hair? Anyone with me?! - I am a bit of a control freak and curly hair has a mind of it's own, which I absolutely HATE not being able to control!

On a more smiley note.... :)

What would an outfit be without atleast one goofy pic?

I have an INSANELY busy next week coming up with the holidays and all so I will try and post as much as possible! But if I'm not back before Christmas I hope everyone has a blessed weekend and Christmas with family and friends!!

This weekend consisted of lots of holiday fun! I had to work, hence the first outfit,  and then had date night with the bf (2nd outfit)! We also went and saw Arthur Christmas and went looking at Christmas lights (which was a massive disappointment seeing as only ONE house out of FIVE neighborhoods actually decorated more than a whimpy strand of lights!) Where is everyones holiday spirit?! On a better note - we listened to Christmas music the whole time which always makes the experience a good one!

 Arthur Christmas was a cute movie - we also went and saw The Sitter - not my cup of tea! Very vulgar, only some funny parts.... As you will soon find out we are quite the movie goers!! So any movies we see I will def give my opinion and I would love to hear if you saw any good or bad movies! 





Also, you may notice a handsome little black puppy - that is my baby Asher! He is the other man in my life (besides my boyfriend, of course!)

All in all I had an amazing weekend with my 2 favorite guys and spending time with the fam! I just love this time of year! Hope everyone else had an equally fab weekend! :)

P.s. LOFT is having a sale  Online only today - 50% off EVERYTHING except new items!!! lots of amazing stuff!! Check it out here !!!
