High 5 for Friday

As I get farther into the school year, I'm becoming more and more grateful for weekends. 

Here's to a big high five for Friday!

1. I know I just posted an outfit with these red pants, but here they are again.

They are just too comfortable to not wear often!

(And I'm well aware I should hem these pants.)

2. A student saw this picture on the bulletin board by my desk at school and asked me,

"Is that black and white because that's all they had back then?" 

Yep. Back in May. When I was 100 years old. 

3.  I used to never be a fan of spending money on jewelry, but lately that is all I want! 

First I got my mini bubble necklace, and last week I bought a tear drop statement necklace.

Next I want some kind of key necklace and I am loving this one.

4.  I made these cookies this week and they were delicious. 

Pretzel cookies with Chocolate and Peanut Butter Chips

5.  I am beyond excited that new shows have started this week.
Parenthood tops the list as one of my favorites.

I'm also looking forward to Survivor, Parks and Recreation, and New Girl.
What show are you most excited about?

Happy Weekend!

Dear Lauren in Law,

I apologize for my neglect in writing you letters. 

 It has been too long!

 Aren't these the same pants that you have?
I was pretty happy I got a coupon and bought them for $10,
but I'm pretty sure your mom bought you yours, so you win!
They make me feel a little like I'm from the 70's, and we all know how I feel about wanting to be a hippie.

I can't believe that I have yet to post some of your wedding pictures on my blog. 

Except this one.  Wish is one of my favorites. 

So here's a few of my favorites.  Maybe more than a few.
It was hard to pick.

I wish you could get married again. 

It was such a wonderful day and I couldn't be happier that you married my brother. 

I'm also not sure how I forgot to post these pictures from our camping trip. 

If that top picture doesn't scare people off, then this definitely will. 

We are probably prepared to fight in the Hunger Games now.
