Things I'm Loving Thursday

So I've officially decided to steal this great idea each week...why you ask? because I had more comments on last week's post than ever and anyone who blogs can agree with me that comments make it more fun ;) So keep them coming!

To see the blog I stole it from (thanks Brittany!) click HERE. Afterall she is a fellow Baylor Bear- so I don't think she minds?!?

Things I'm loving today.

1. I love starting my Thursday out in the rain- without an umbrella- in my work dress- on my knees, getting wet and dirty- looking under my car to see what is making that awful sound-don't worry I fixed it but was late to work- gotta love that. {note sarcasm}

2. Ok I know EVERYONE is saying they love this too- but I really do love it and therefore it must be on the list. Pumpkin Spice Latte from Starbucks.



It's beyond delicious {I order it "skinny" so I'm less guilty} and reminds me every time I put the cup to my lips- that I love all things fall.

Don't believe me? Click HERE to see my post from last year.

3. A quick color change. No i'm not talking about fall anymore. I'm talking about going to the nail salon across from my office on my lunch break so they can quickly change my polish color. Gotta love that it takes 15 min start to finish and costs $5. Now I'm no longer embarassed to shake your hand.



I'm just glad I'm not a hand model...so hard to get a good picture of my hand...this was the best one :( why does my pinkie do that? oh well. I digress.

4. I love that I got to talk to my sister, Shawna for 1 hour last night! This is a record ya'll. We never get to talk that long. She's probably really tired today becaues of it...so thank you Shawna for staying up late and talking with me :)



We would talk for an hour every night if we could. But the time difference between Dallas and New York plus the fact that she has two kids under 3 makes it difficult.

I'm also loving that I got to see new pics of my niece and nephew on her blog...check it out HERE. I am such a proud auntie.

5. Italy. Yup- I love Italy. I've always loved Italy. I selected to do a project on Italy back in 3rd grade, I've {fortunately} traveled there twice and I studied Italian in college... don't ask me to say anything because I've {sadly} forgotten it all- but I love all things Italy. Watching Eat,Pray, Love this week has given me the Italy itch that I get every so often. I want to go there so badly. Since I can't afford the plane ticket/time off work. I will just go there right now.

The village of Monterosso on Cinque Terre (5 Towns)


Verona, Italy


Rome, Italy


And my most favorite town in Italy thus far- Sorrento, Italy


There that's better.

What are you loving today?
